Are you Mod?!

Taking original style into the 21st century

The time is once again upon us to start considering which of these beauties you're going to start wearing. Although the stylish among you probably already are wearing them.

Frankly, I did this post a couple of years ago and there seems to be a lot more choice now! Amazing spread of prices and patterns.

RUMod's Map of Carnaby Street

10/8/2016

Next time you pay a visit to the legendary street in this part of London, this handy map should tell you the shops worth visiting in between all the slightly less appealing stuff. Scroll down for a key, of sorts.

[Bear in mind that this is ongoing, so if anyone desperately wants to add anything for consideration, especially anything I've stupidly left out, leave it in the comments]

From left to right:
  • Pretty Green
    Liam Gallagher's brand. Stop off here for the more rock 'n' roll, Madchester side of the Mod clothing spectrum. Parkas and paisley inside.
  • Levi's
    After all these years, still the best place for the best fitting jeans.
  • Ben Sherman
    Stock a whole range of goods from ties to suits, but specialise in the classic, button-down shirt. The Shirt Bar is a feast for the eyes.
  • Dr Martens
    Does what it says on the tin. The original skinhead boots (and shoes) of all colours and sizes.
  • El Ganso
    A new one for me. A Portuguese wildcard of multicoloured shirts, trousers and blazers all under an Ivy League rather than strictly Mod code, but striking styles nevertheless . 
  • Lambretta
    The scootermaker-gone-tailor. I've not visited often but I bought some strong blue desert boots and a bag very recently.
  • Peckham Rye
    Strictly speaking a tie-maker, but they have a glorious collection of paisley and polka dot silk scarves.
  • Office
    It's the high street shoe shop. But I've bought more than one pair of winklepickers from here.
  • Baracuta
    Eminent and prestigious purveyor of Harringtons. If you've got a bit to spend on a bomber, get down here and get yourself a real one.
  • Fred Perry
    Again, speaks for itself. In recent months, they've bust out of their mainstream funk and have started doing more creative stuff. Well worth a visit.
