If you're shopping for workwear-inspired outerwear this season — whether a Barbour, barn coat, or French chore jacket — I encourage you to consider vintage first. Old clothes often have a patina that cubicle farmers are unlikely to ever achieve on their own. That patina is what gives these styles their charm.
For instance, this 1993 Bedale at Jojo's General Store in Sheffield has the most wonderful wear patterns, along with a detachable teddy bear lining for extra warmth.
Of course, vintage clothes sometimes come with undesirable smells. Rave FabriCARE in Scottsdale, Arizona, can handle most cleaning needs, while New England Reproofers is my choice for waxed cotton. Cleaning and rewaxing an old Barbour will invariably remove some of its patina, but enough will remain to make the jacket look more charming than something bought new.

PWVC also does a version of the dispatch coat, which British officers wore during WWII. The chest pocket was used to hold maps, slanted so the rider could easily reach into their pocket while driving. First slide shows an original vintage dispatch; second slide is PWVC's version.

Another amazing week in Sheffield with so many special moments. Every time I come here, I fall more in love with this city and its people, who have been so warm and welcoming.
Great interactive Q&A with the @swfc staff at Hillsborough; their loyalty is admirable. We will restore joy and pride to the offices as we create a culture of excellence.
I've been impressed with the strong civic leadership I've seen from Mayor @olivercoppard and @katejosephs. I have further enjoyed building a great relationship with Clive Betts. Also loved my time with Sheffield Wednesday Legend, @HirstyD9 who still has so much passion for the Owls.
My team and I are working on so many important initiatives so that we can hit the ground running once we take over this wonderful club. Most notably; improvements to Hillsborough and the design of our kit and crest (stay tuned!😉).
Had the opportunity to host a lunch at the outstanding new restaurant in the City Centre; Maria. You guys have to try it! We were joined by @LordBlunkett who enlightened us with his many stories spanning 75 years of genuine love for the club through the good times and not so.
I finished my visit, stopping in at the Broomhill Tavern, relaxing over a pint with some new friends watching our match against Stoke City.
I'd like to wish everybody a very Happy Easter weekend as we continue into next week heads down on this journey to rebuild this incredible football club.
See you soon,
David
PS. was also lucky enough to find 2 vintage shirts @RagParade ... Love it!

Asked my 4-yr-old to take a pic so that I could thank @SELFESTEEM___ for the @RagParade sweater tip-off. Not sure what’s worse between the out of focus and the deeply unimpressed mum / resting bitch face. Either way, great sweater 👍 #SteelCity #Sheffield 🦉
