Harry Stedman was born in 1934 and is father and grandfather to the owners of the business. A great traveller, Harry soaked up the culture and style of the many countries he visited after escaping Liverpool to join the army. This brand is a celebration of his life.
As a reflection of Harry's experiences, the label fuses many influences, particularly US and British from the fifties and sixties, to produce very modern classics. The clothes are made in the UK, US or Japan and elsewhere; their provenance is made clear on their website.
The brand was kind enough to approach me to take part in a photoshoot. Like many businesses, it sees the potential of the older market and its styles suit men from their twenties upwards. Always happy to show brands and their customers how clothes look on the older man, I worked with photographer Nick Maroudias in the lovely old streets of Roupell Street near Waterloo Station in London. We aimed to reflect the timelessly classic yet very contemporary look that Harry Stedman embodies. I hope you feel we've succeeded.
Everything I'm wearing in the images is available from Harry Stedman except where mentioned otherwise. To support this small British brand, visit Harry Stedman.

This post is unsponsored as I wanted to work in support of a small brand that manufactures here in the UK.

ReplyDeleteA good looking range of clothes - much in the 'street wear' catagory. You carry them off with your usual degree of panache. On their web site they are not at 'give away' prices.
Own shoes - Loake Royal Brogues?

Great gear GF. I particularly like the shawl cardigan and brown cropped jacket.
ReplyDeleteTrust you popped in to the Kings Arms for a spot of light refreshment and glad you included a shot with the Citroen D series!

ReplyDeleteI guess you are very hesitant to 'blow your own trumpet' but on your behalf and for the entertainment and informative benefit of your readers here please be good enough to publish the following :-
" Gentlemen there is a very interesting half hour video entitled 'An interview with David Evans ( Grey Fox )'on another blog called Gentleman's Gazette. I recommend it as being well worth 30 minutes of your time "
I hope you will publish my request, and thank you in advance.
Regards,
Snapper
Thanks all and thanks snapper for the mention. Seeing your comment I decided to write a post (above) about the interview.

very nice togs, thanks. A little disappointed with the turn of phrase "...after <<>> Liverpool " though!
ReplyDeleteGood to see you in some casual attire for a change. But this selection I am sorry to say is pretty tame. As I have said before why no Engineered Garments on this blog? Great gear often modeled by guys 40+.
ReplyDeleteRe: Harry Stedman piece. Escaped Liverpool!!! As in...escaped prison, a worn torn country, a despot regime? No insult to the city of Liverpool intended, I guess? Did anyone ever escape from the Home Counties?
ReplyDeleteBig fan of the brand and the people behind it. Good to see them on here. Did I mentioned HS lives down the road from me?
