About

Ooh look, my own blog. Ace.

I’m a thirtysomething Northern monkey, living in London that thinks way too much about clothes.

So I thought I’d set this up to talk about Men’s fashion and other bits and bobs that interest me (so that’s graphic design, trainers and music then). It’ll be like a snapshot of my life, how very exciting for everyone… Now I’m by no means a writer (oh you noticed did you?) and I’m not some fashionista either but I thought I’d give this blogging lark a go and see what happens.

There are plenty of blogs out there telling you what to spank your hard earned on and what to listen to etc. but this isn’t one of them. The idea’s more to just talk about stuff and the way I think about it in general. You might agree, you might not – hopefully you’ll tell me what you think and we can have a discussion about stuff – that’s how influences get passed on and evolve right? Hence the name.

It was suggested I call the blog ‘sweary fashion ponce’, maybe I should have…

Yes, this is obviously a personal project and I’m doing it as much for myself as anyone else and it probably will be a bit indulgent, plus I’ve got no idea where it will end up – that’s what blogs are basically about though ain’t it?

    Hi mate,
    Just stumbled across you whilst searching for Hiut jeans, I am actually going to Pavillion in the morning to bag me a pair of the selvedge Hacka ones!!
    Looking at your list of stores, you gotta add Rapha to that surely!
    Nice blog though, I will be back.
    Simon.

      Good luck with the jeans Simon. I love mine and have been wearing them loads, great quality and fit. Good point about Rapha too, I’ll get them added!
