How about European heritage workwear?
Hi all,
Since a lot of workwear is focussed on Americana, I was wondering if we can look at some European heritage workwear. Of course there's English boots, Scottish tweed, French bleu de travail, German flecktarn military jackets. But maybe there's more?
Of course a lot of 20th century clothing in Europe has been heavily influenced by American culture: jeans and t-shirts are quintessentially American. And in the current menswear moment, a lot of 'heritage' menswear in Europe is not actually our own heritage, but we're copying it from the US.
But maybe there's Italian work jackets, Spanish trousers, Belgian shoes and French shirts which we're completely overlooking?
