Old Town










Based in the North Norfolk town of Holt, Old Town seem to pride themselves on being a fashionably old-fashioned sort of outfitters. To take a tour of their quaint website is to take a step back in time, to the era of demob clothing, Powell and Pressburger, and post war rationing. Their menswear collection of workwear jackets, coats and trousers are solidly British in both cut and fabric, and customers can choose from a range of styles in UK-made flannels, tweeds and drills. All callers are directed to the charmingly named Miss Willey, who according to the website,"is able to advise on style, fit and to discuss the merits of the various fabrics." If you fancy looking like an extra from 'Brief Encounter' or 'I'm All Right Jack' go for the full outfit. If you'd just prefer a touch of the Old Town look, you could always team a tweed waistcoat up with your slim-cut Levis and Grensons.
