for those who are wondering it is all rugby. the jacket is the barbour knock-off we did for fall/early winter, tweed trousers are fall rugby, scarf is early fall rugby, as is the hat and cardigan. boots, as stated are polo. damn fine outfit.

i think labels are important. if nothing else, the identification of certain designers helps people who are researching in an attempt to re-create a certain look.
a vintage cargo/fatigue jacket like the one he has is fairly easy to find. there are usually similar items at ralph lauren or j.crew for most of the year (since the piece is so versatile). the RL ranger boots are everywhere, but those pants (which are probably rugby) are going to be impossible to find at this time of year. rugby always releases heavy tweed pants in the fall (which have a very tapered fit similar to these), however, so come late-august/early-september it shouldn’t be a problem.

Labels aren’t important. Its not like you could walk into a store and get a vintage jacket like that off the rack nor find trousers that fit that well without tailoring.
To give a hint - most photos have a heavy polo influence ex. the polo boots in this post.

Dude is stylin…the boots go with the tweed damn nicely. As others have commented, labels/info would be awesome!

Interesting color palette and mixing of fabrics. The way the trousers are cuffed (hemmed) sit perfectly on his boots. Choice.
