A MEN’S TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S – EARLY ’60’S WOOL CARDIGAN WITH CONTRASTING TRIM

A MEN'S TRUE VINTAGE 1950'S - EARLY '60'S WOOL CARDIGAN WITH CONTRASTING TRIM

Sticking with men’s fashion, we’re still in the ’50’s/’60’s era when cardigan sweaters were a big thing for both sexes. This one’s a very nice, heavy button-front knit for cold weather, with sculpted metal buttons, little pockets at the hips and smart-looking trim.

A favorite for Dad or Grandpa while they watched sports on TV. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

TRUE VINTAGE 1960'S - '70'S POLYESTER SHIRTS

Seventies shirts are always fun – polyester holds colors so vibrantly and the ’60’s & ’70’s were a time for great prints and designs.  Some of the graphics were kind of ugly, too, but that’s part of what makes them so fun to wear.  And some are really cute!

They’re good in cooler weather, but not for summer!  Polyester was one of the “miracle fabrics” in some ways, but it has its limitations.

These are recent finds which I have added to my everyday closet. Not haute couture by any means, but I enjoy these easy wear/easy care items. However, no matter how “ordinary”, never mistreat your vintage treasures!   I still care for them as if they were gold . . . . . . . . . . . . .
