Daniele, how wide are your Jeans at the bottom hem? I'm struggling with some of my Jeans, but your Wranglers look as wide as those I'm struggling with and they look good... ![]()
I agree, those Blue Bells looks superb!
What year are they?

Have you got another SX as well Dan? Thought I'd seen you on a white one as well???
New summer Smedley for the polo thread, with famous Irish coffee in hand at the historic Buena Vista.:




daniele - classic casualness, makes me regret having sold my claret g9
ocbd - solid!
oliver - you can't beat a smedley when it's warm can you! nice 70s vibe (in a very good sense) on the photo.

Cool classic casualness, too!

Pic after my leisurely scoot home last night.
Red Baracuta Dean windbreaker (arrived yesterday, cracking little jacket for £35.)
Red Sunspel polo shirt
Alban slim fit selvedge
Navy Socks
Burgundy tassel-less weejuns
Today:
Pale blue guayabera shirt
Levis 511
off white sock
Burgundy weejuns
Leer R. : my Wrangler measure 17,5" at hems, with 0,75" turn up. I think they look quite balanced, so good luck with yours :-)
Oliver: I bought them a few years ago, I couldn't say what year they are... That bootcut style reminds me an early 70s vibe. Btw, great photo and cool Smedley above
Goodyear Welt: you remember well mate, I had a white SX150 but I sold it a couple of years ago to finance another project, namely a sport SX200... I actually bought the bike but she's still waiting under a shed..
Tom: I like that Dean windbreaker very much, both the cut and the shade of red

Yeah thanks mate, I think I'm gonna take in my denims this week to have my turnups sewn too- they look great, much better than folding them over.
Cheers D, i'm very happy with it - bought it because it had a look of a McGregor, Campus or Champion windbreaker.
Also has the added not a harrington factor - can't escape them at the minute, so it's a cool alternative.




Today as the temps drop.
Heikki - Very nice. Love the sneakers.

The 80's versions retained a similar shape but are bigger. Too big for my face.
If you are talking about the extension / 'surface' of the lens and not about the thickness of the frame, usually different calibers are available for each model, so it may be a matter of size and not just style...

Check out the new strides, Liam. Sorry I can't get it bigger

"Will I ever find the shetland in my mind?
The one who is my ideal
Maybe she's a dream and yet it might be
Just around the corner waiting for me"
OCBD, can I ask where the shetland is from? It's an absolute beauty and just the melange of grey I've been looking for.
From what I can tell from the photo these look great George. Good width at the bottom and not at all hipster. Perfect, I'd say, for some casual Summer strides. The colour looks great too next to the shirt and belt combo.

Today. Keeping it boring as usual, which is the rule I adhere to most strictly.
Don - Thanks. It is from J.Crew and is actually lambswool. Though I saw BB's shetlands that they will have this fall/winter and I am excited.
