Nigel Cabourn is Close

I have been following Nigel Cabourn for a while now and I have to say he is close when it comes to putting together clothing that I find attractive for myself. I'm attracted to his overall direction right off as he designs updated versions of English/European Military Wear, very cool, looks rugged enough, possibly could actually be worn on the outside doing what I do. He does use probably The Best Zipper made, RIRI. Me, I'm looking for clothes that I can wear in from the woods to dinner at Frank Stitt's or Kelvin Terry's. Something that looks good torn, with a little mud on it. He's close but no cigar yet. And down at the bottom is my next purchase in footwear, a pair of Grensons with vibram soles. AP
