Ben Sherman Modern Classics Fall/Winter 2011 ‘The Old Man of Coniston’ Collection

Ben Sherman Modern Classics delivers some top-notch product for its third season. The Fall 2011 collection features high quality fabrics with detailed craftsmanship, giving us more staples for the modern wardrobe. The upcoming season’s offerings take much inspiration from, “the Great British outdoorsmen of the 1950s, with particular reference to the challengers of the World Water Speed Records; a prestigious title that was intermittently but vehemently battled and defended on Coniston Water by the slightly more eccentrically epicurean gentlemen of the 1900s.”

Some of the staple items in the Fall offerings include Fair Isle and ‘fisherman’ knits as well as a Harris Tweed driving jacket, utility shirts and discreetly technical outerwear, including a beautiful down-filled Mountain Parka.
