denlin Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Wish I'd still got those I had in 1964/5, they'd probably be worth a fortune as would the Afghan coat I had in 1968. The only thing I kept was a handbag my grandma bought me when I was 13. Mind you I wouldn't get into any of them anyway:hihi::hihi: as I was a size 8-10 then:roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mecky Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I'm too young to have been there, so to speak, but I thought that's what Mods wore... Only that post punk rubbish propagated from the Quadrophenia movie. I've only ever seen one photograph of an original Mod wearing a parka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubydazzler Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I'm too young to have been there, so to speak, but I thought that's what Mods wore...The scooter boys wore parkas, but for going out purposes, shiny tonic mohair suits with 14"-16" back seam vents, narrow trousers, thin lapels, button down shirt collars, skinny ties, chukka boots in either suede or leather, leather jackets/coats. Hairstyles, think Smallfaces, Paul Weller, Rod Stewart. All very smart! Clothes were our life. ETA: Just googled Mod Face, and got this site, looks interesting ... http://www.themodgeneration.co.uk/2009/06/rob-london-mod.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric_Collins Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Firstly an m65 fish tale parka but they retail on eBay for about £100 for a very used one. Now I have a quick and easy "fix" to get a cheap as chips m65. Buy the m65 (£10 ebay) snow camo parka ( exact same cut as the green parka ) which has attached hood and made of 100% white cotton twill. Get yourself some green dye shade OD 107 , bobs your uncle cheap parka ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
