Mod fashion and style / Anyone know what these 60's collared suit/hacking type jackets are called ?
« on: September 22, 2014, 11:18:41 PM »
These  jackets, like a hacking /suit jacket /sport jacket, but with a collar instead of lapels seem quite common in the early 60's - here are a couple of the beatles (John and Paul ) wearing them http://wfiles.brothersoft.com/t/the-beatles-wallpaper_151855-1920x1080.jpg

and here Mick Jagger http://www.bbc.co.uk/berkshire/content/images/2008/11/25/rollingstones_470_470x313.jpg

and here Bill Wyman http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/eb/1c/13/eb1c1311900e60d742a7f52f47c1d891.jpg

So does anyone know what they are called ? Some Safari Jacket and leather jackets have a slightly similar shape, but these look more tailored. Also, are they still available anywhere, does anyone know ?

Mod fashion and style / Macy's "Club Room" - any help from our American friends
« on: November 04, 2013, 06:08:33 PM »
I noticed that Macy's "Club Room" has some ok looking Mock Turtlenecks and "smedley" esque 3 button wool polos (actually both 50/50 merino /acrylic), and they do deliver to the UK for £20 or so. Mock turtlenecks don't come cheap in the UK so I was tempted , but do any America forum folk have an idea of fit ? Not slim fit, I'm sure , but I'm hoping a medium is not superbig (22 inch across the chest , or more )
