Okay, we're already almost halfway into 2009 and the posts have been mighty sparse. Let's ramp things up then and get opinionating!
I was interested to see the announcement about the
Fred Perry 100th Anniversary line, particularly the collaborative/co-branding angles which were all very cool: Raf Simons, Vespa, Paul Weller, Terry Hall and The Specials to name a few. Everyone knows that
the classic Fred Perry tennis jersey is right up near the top of my "please give me free stuff for writing about it" wishlist next to the
classic Baracuta jacket, Italy's own
DNA Groove [link to men's shoes, but man oh man could I ever spend money on their other stuff!], Munsingwear's "
Original Penguin",
Ben Sherman, and
the only jeans that matter - in other words, stuff I'd wear if I could afford it, and until then have to be content with thrift store castoffs. I've found all of the above in thrift stores EXCEPT anything by FP - for that I'd have to brave the waters of eBay, and I'm sorry, but I'm just not buying clothing over the internet if I can help it.
[And if you're sending me free stuff - i'll take L to XL please. Shoe size 10 1/2 American. Pants size, well, that's rather personal.....I'd have to get to know you better.]
