I’m almost as keen as my fellow poster on Howies. I’ve been checking out their very comfortable looking merino boxer shorts. If you value your testicles being kept cool and safe, a snip at £30.

As I’ve written before, my new love is the floral print shirt, preferably long sleeved.
Paul Smith is one of the prime purveyors of these, and I particularly like this one, available from their online store for £130:
There is a similar style in Liberty, if you fancy saving £55 😉
20 Best Buys as selected by the Poor Man’s Watch Forum. Not overly keen on some of them, although this one does have the attraction of a monster face.
Some interesting tees from Lowercase Industry, my favourite is “analogue”:
Using the Amazon API, watch-browser.com gives an AJAX-enabled view of the watches they have in stock.
With the world cup coming up, subsidesports has some quality football t-shirts, including this Da Silva one:
The Cassius Brasil 50 Tee is rather good as well.
Bally make superb leather messenger bags, like this one on eBay.
Unfortunately it is up to £210 with 2 days left… and beware of the bidder with zero feedback who has only just registered bidding like a man possessed.
However Hidesign do a similar style more reasonably priced: the “Zailor” bag. £85 from John Lewis or Hideall.
StyleHive – Social bookmarking for the product and shopping obsessed. Came across this whilst searching for the Astrodea. More women’s fashion than men’s from what I can tell
In the spirit of the Seiko Earth Watch, comes this Astronomers’ watch, the Astrodea from Citizen. $365 apparently.
What is it about the Japanese and celestially inspired watches?
UPDATE: A lot cheaper (but nowhere near as pretty) is the planisphere watch.
The new loves of my life are Liberty floral print shirts. They come in 3 sizes: normal, slim, very slim (I wouldn’t say the slim is particularly snug-fitting however, more straight) and a large number of different print designs. They are £75 each and can be found in menswear department in the basement, along with London’s best selection of ties. Personally I like the look of at least 15 of them, which would certainly up the points total on my Liberty card.
