The highly disputed Golf sweater was actually wine or maroon colored, not black as originally thought. The original was a Slazenger brand sweater, similar to the brand of golf balls Goldfinger puts with. This make is now almost impossible to find even with your eye fixed on ebay. So here are some options for the not so vintage friendly.
Here's one new take straight from Savile Row!

Funny really. My school uniform, back in the day, was a maroon jumper and black blazer and many of us had a maroon Slazenger jumper. I must have had about three or four.
ReplyDeleteI didn't particularly like school uniform at the time, but looking back we were smart as hell: grey trousers, white shirt, maroon and white tie, jumper and black blazer.
