THE KNOTTERY (K)NOT JUST FOR TIES
The Shyster
The Rascal
Hoof Pick Jones
Yesterday, I received my package which I ordered at The Knottery. The men behind the Knottery, Jack and Jay, inform their customers concerning the goods they sell and the brand identity they call, Attainable Style: "We run a small company who knows what the men of today are looking for (besides love, as they say). In the real world, a man should be able to afford a tie he loves and not be forced to love the the tie he can't afford. The vision: affordable style for the initiated; attainable style to the beginner. This isn't your grandfather's haberdasher (unless he wants it to be). W've created limited runs of ties we want to wearand hope you will like 'em too" Well I do and not only the ties, but also the belts, the lapel flowers and the handkerchiefs........I'll be back soon with my next order!

MODS - BRITMANIA
In 1979 a movie by Franc Roddam produced by the Who becomes a cult, representing a phenomenon that is the symbol of the made in England of the Sixties. The movie was Quadrophenia (as the 1973 Who album) and at that time it was the comeback of the Mod culture, a term that is short for "modernist", initially used to define fans of modern jazz dressed in an elegant and sober way. The Mods started in the Fifties in London a young working class decides to create music, but it's the attitude and style that make the British phenomenon grow. Mods identified by the famous symbol of blue, red and white circles, logo of the Royal Air Force. The music of The Who, Small Faces, The Birds, and The Kinks, driving on their Vespa scooters equipped with the most extravagant mirrors. The film is a journey back in time to the fashion of the era, with fur parkas, polo shirts, trousers model Sta-prest (stay pressed) by Levi's, Gauloises cigarettes and partying until the early hours. So time to put on your Clark Desert Boots, your Fred Perry Polo and your army green Parka and meet me in the city.
