Thrifty Beatnik

Thrifty? Yes most definitely. I love a eBay pennies pick up and sifting through mothballed clobber in charity shops. Beatnik? Not quite up on hippy ideals, although I do have a scruffy goatee on the go at the minute...

If you're the same and you enjoy your vintage one offs and your forgotten 90s labels, then Thrifty Beatnik could be for you. Based in wor very own Newcastle-upon-Tyne, they specialise in gentleman's garments unique as they are original and pieces of fine clobber that are "individual as you are". Nicely put.

Stumbled across them via fleabay and immediately checked out three inexpensive old school Chaps shirts for under a tenner. With combined postage this trio of shirtings arrived at my door for 12 of the Queen's.

They have thousands of lines and I'll certainly be sifting through them again for more thriftily priced gems maaan, and if you want to do the same visit www.thriftybeatnik.co.uk
