Rod 1%er's Skull 5010



Never got as into these as my Levi's, wearing them in was fucking agonising and I dont think the denim wears in as nicely as LVC (I like it when jeans fade to grey rather than the bright blue they all bum on Superfuture). Still life in these but they'll be my messing about jeans once I get a new pair.

Rod 1%er's LVC 1967



After loads of sewing and a trip to the tailor's these are pretty much retired now as they keep ripping round the patches on the knees, great pair of jeans mind...

Rod 1%er's Pendleton Part 2...



Sorry for the two-parter, Blogger would only let me upload 5 at once, I've saved the vest for last tho so fuck it, these two are beaut's....

Rod 1%er's Pendleton Part 1






I really love Pendleton's, I only really wear the proper loop button ones but i do have one which i cut the collar off to wear as a grandad shirt (cheers for the inspiration Tony!) I bought all these off Ebay, always a gamble as the sizing over the years has changed so much and because of shrinkage due to washing but I much prefer these to the brand new ones...

Rod 1%er's Belstaff



I've only got two of these but I'm always on the lookout for new ones, one day i will find one in a charity shop for a fiver as happened to a friend of mine (Cunt). The one is a standard vintage Trialmaster and the other was made under license by Driza-Bone while the Belstaff Factory was shut during the eighties.

Rod 1%er's Chambray Shirts




I got the two from Gap in the sale,one is a small and one is a medium but they're exactly the same size which says a lot for their quality control. They are however a nice pair of shirts and seem to be wearing in well. The other shirt is a Dry Bones, bit short in the body and the sleeves but the quality of the denim is amazing.

Rod 1%er's Inverallan

2 style 4A cardigans and a cableknit sweater by the now sadly deceased Scottish knitwear company Inverallan. I picked the cream one up while they were still open but managed to salvage the others from a store online who bought up the company's stock after they folded ( at a vastly-reduced price!). I also have several hats and scarves but ill save those for a later post.....
