Liking both Riff.
Been looking for some nice non-Carhartt vintage overalls for awhile just havent found the right pair.
Those look great.

Well, I'm sure I'll run across some one day. Who knows, maybe I'll go for some IH ones.

I don't know what it is but here in Toronto there are tons of Carter and Oshkosh shit. I'm bound to find a pair I like, just don't want a super worn pair, I want more of a dead stock condition. Denim, duck, or hickory I don't care.

edit: found some, might get them

What's the fabric Riff - BTW, amazing find …..

[riffblaster general]

its a strange navy blue salt and pepper…. worsted wool i think?  very thick but fairly lightweight and really warm.  feels almost like a super thick sweatshirt.

i have NEVER seen one of these outside of extremely expensive vintage shops.

let me know if you would like to see more pics.

btw…..i would LOVE to see Haraki's take on something like this.

Not really a thrift store score, but a cheap, 2ndhand score so hell here goes…

Vintage (60'ies) Lee houndstooth rider jacket...

Pristine condition!..

[riffblaster general]

[madmonday]

[Seul]

Makes two of us!.. Not entirely won over by it, but really glad I gave it a try!.. 

[rocket]

[Seul]

Maybe on some slim ducks?.. 

The future will tell 

[riffblaster general]

[madmonday]
