C&A sheepskins

Seen this on a vintage site, anyone remember when C&A sold things like this? Price is €25 euro, looks very German, label marked English and Echt Leder German also

C&A had stores in many European countries - it started up in Holland - so this may have been sold in their German or other Euro shops but not in their UK ones, which all closed a couple of decades back.

We still have C&A here in Madrid, but yeah in UK closed 2000 I think, I never saw nude shearling in UK stores

C&A used to have stores in quite a few towns and cities here in the UK. Just got talking to my wife about them, she looked it up and says they closed in 2001 adding that we never shopped there. That light coat is a time warp but would likely make me Billy No Mates if I wore it in the pubs around here, I don't think the "Jason King" thing would meld well with all the Barbour coats and Schoffel jackets and gilets.

Jason King, love it Steve haha

I know a very rude joke about C&A which I’d better not repeat here.

Steve to be fair also, because C&A is still here, they do the best white American ribbed undershirts I've found, form fitted not baggy and pack of 3 Shame they quit the UK
