BENETTON T-SHIRT RE-PRINT.



Every now and again we re-visit the archives for one of our favourite designs.
The Benetton Rugby top had a massive following in the early 80s. A couple of years ago we produced it on a T-Shirt with the tagline 'Those were the Days My Friend'.
We have now re-printed the Iconic Rugby Top just for the stores, so just like the old days you'll have to  search for it throughout a few Shops websites.

HARRIS TWEED 'FIELD' SCARVES




There's only one way to stay warm this Winter and that's with a bit of layering. One item that's essential  every time we venture out is a Scarf. It's an item that can be worn loose if too warm or wrapped tightly around the neck and chin if on a bleak terrace one bitterly cold evening.
The Harris Tweed 'Field' Scarf has been specifically manufactured to our own spec. Standing over 5 foot long and handwoven in the Outer Hebrides, we have two designs of reassuring tradition and provenance. Each carries the iconic Harris Tweed Orb Label and has been woven using traditional techniques by an award winning designer.
The Scarves are available now online http://www.80scasuals.co.uk/shop10.html
and should be in Stores before this weekend.
It's great to see 80s Casuals clothing endorsed by others. The Reference Council again highlight the quality and care that we take in the production of our clothing. http://www.thereferencecouncil.com/
