Mod to Suedehead

[Botolph]

Gotta check those out. If Im doin errands, I usually dress in a more So Cal street style but I use my Skinhead gear alot too. Whatever style you got looks sharp enough to me from the few pics I've seen 👍

thanks boss. “Beaten, battered, and broken” style has been my ™ for some time. 😆

S.I. Jacket, Outlier 60/30 chinos, Adidas Hamburg, manky arm and a cuppa coffee.

I don't understand why these companies never make them in grey or light grey...

Because here in Britain grey means school kecks.

I'd say we're pretty much on the same page, except my coffee container is 3 times bigger than that one 😁

From over here in the UK I have noticed a certain similarity between cholo and skinhead. I think we would have got on fine.

Ideally you're right, but most cholos see Skins as bone head's, like everyone else

I ordered a pair of the tonic retro seventy2 trousers from Amazon. I messaged the guy on ebay and he said they'll be restocking in two weeks. I want the stone color which they're all out of. If they are really 11.5" rise then they'll have to be the best fit and closest to the originals.

Definitely a difference of opinion on how a shirt is buttoned-up though.
Top button never fastened vs Only the top button ever fastened

Doesn't the rise vary depending on size? It certainly does with jeans. Anyway, I'd be curious about the measurements when you get them.

I thought about that..

I got the Retro Seventy2 tonic sta prest. They actually have a decent rise. Looking forward to getting the stone and tartan ones.

How's the colour of those Retro Seventys, are they a grey shade ? The blue/gold ones I have from Warrior are definitely more green than grey. I'm waiting on them to bring the price back down (to the usual £34.99) on the tweed-look ones (they're £59.99 on ebay). My inner-Gramsci forbids me from using *mazon

I'm guessing they use the same fabric as warrior. I can't wait for them to make a matching jacket. I really dig the rise on the retro seventy2 trousers. I'd have to say these are definitely the closest to the real thing in terms of the rise other than the replicas I've had made.

The girl at TrimfitShirts on Etsy.com is making some cool 60s/70s inspired shirts

Nik would you be willing to share some pictures? And do you recommend buying your actual waist measurement or sizing up? Thanks in advance!

I'll get the pics up when they get hemmed. I'd say they are true to size.

Right on. I appreciate it
