Yeah, Sainsbury's are world famous for doing cool bike kit.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 8:31 pm I don't have a man bag, but I do have a very useful faux military jacket (from Sainsbury's) that does the job of a man bag.

Ueshima supply MaccyD's beans so I think you're safe from hipster status in that at least for now.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 8:05 pm No bizarre containers yet, but I do like Ueshima Tokyo Roast coffee

Takes a bit of talent to reduce a leather jacket to a single A rating... it really is a jacket for wearing to the pub.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 8:06 pmhttps://www.megamotorcyclestore.co.uk/r ... -updating/

Don't think they've ever been out of fashion!Potter wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 5:38 am You can't really go wrong with a jacket like that, it's just a bike jacket, never really in fashion and never really out of fashion - although the former might not be true, I do remember in the 80's when Bon Jovi were rocking the charts and it was fashionable to be a rocker, but I don't think it lasted long, the rave scene kicked in and bike jackets went back to only being worn by men on motorcycles.
There are the old rockers from the 50s and 60s like Dave Edmunds, Bowie in the late 60s... Sex Pistols, Clash, Stranglers, Vivienne Westwood to name a few sporting them from the mid-70s... Then there was George Michael in the 80s... and even Victoria and David Beckham have been seen modelling them! That's just off the top of my head

It's got a lot of pockets, makes it look a bit too military for my taste, but definitely hipster.v8-powered wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 9:06 am Never thought of mine as hipster but now you lot got me thinking, I think I've caught something.....
