A Cool Guy’s Wish List

Richard Leng is a photographer and videographer of 17 years’ standing. In a few short months on Instagram, he’s built a following as ‘a guy in his 50s trying to dress a little better’. What this actually means is: a guy in his 50s showing everyone else how to do it. Here’s his wish list…

THE BLOUSON JACKET

Snuff Raw Suede Blouson Jacket, £1,495 | Drake's

No notes on this. It's brilliant. A jacket I don’t need in the slightest, but the want for it is keeping me up at night.

THE SHOE

4950-T10 Repello Calf Hunting Loafers, €152.89 | Berwick

I wear a lot of Berwick loafers and I really rate them – the Belgians have lasted me so well and still look great. The brand serves a space in the market of good quality and excellent price point.

THE T-SHIRT

Pack Of 2 Toughknit™ Tubular Tee, $88 | Buck Mason

A white tee in a classic fit, it’s made from midweight, American-grown, ring-spun cotton yarn. A simple classic that will last.

THE FRAGRANCE

Portal Eau De Parfum, £150 | Kingdom Scotland

I love this fragrance. It’s meant to evoke an ancient Scotland of woods, clean air and ferns. Based on how good it is, I think I have to try the others too.

THE WESTERN SHIRT

The Italian Denim Western Shirt, £209 | Proper Cloth

This is a shirt that will age really well and last a lifetime. Made from beautiful denim from a 185-year-old Italian mill, it’s a casual shirt in premium fabric. I’d wear it casually but also with tailoring.

THE JEANS

Japanese Loomstate Selvedge Full Saddle Jeans, $278 | Buck Mason

This is a classic higher-rise jean with a straight-to-loose leg. It will work with casual pieces and a little tailoring.

THE OCBD

Stripe Cotton Oxford Cloth Button-Down Shirt, £225 | Drake's

On an OCBD, a good collar shape and roll is important. Drake’s knows this. This timeless example in yellow ticking stripe is perfect.

THE SPORT COAT

Herringbone Sport Jacket, £1,100 | Anglo Italian

A good four-season sport coat in a silk/cotton/linen blend. I can see this one being something I reach for because it goes with everything.

THE LOAFER

The Castro Loafers, £800 | Arthur Sleep

These just look cool. I want them badly. I like the leopard-print ones, but I’m not sure I’d pull them off, but the brown suede ones for sure.

THE WATCH

Golden Eclipse Watch, £53,090 | Patek Philippe

This is a grail for me. I’m a sucker for a small watch and I just love the simplicity of it.

Visit Patek.com

THE SMOCK

Linen Smock, £395 | Drake's

I’ve never owned a smock but this has caught my attention. In a lovely weight of linen, it's just one of those pieces that will patina and age well during evenings on the beach with a cold drink and feet in the sand.

THE DB JACKET

Double Breasted Sport Jacket, £545 | Natalino

A navy DB is as timeless as it gets. Wear it casually with denim or smart with a full suit – it’s a do-it-all jacket. I have a few Natalino sport coats and I love how they fit – very soft in the shoulder with an understated Neapolitan style for a softer look overall.

THE SUMMER SHIRT

Grande Shirt Seersucker Sunflower Stripe, £220 | Anglo Italian

What can I say about this one? A great collar and summer-ready seersucker in a perfect shade of yellow. Worn with some pleated shorts – perfect.
