This photo popped up on my tumblroblogdashboard this past weekend and has since stuck with me. With the help of Google image search’s reverse look up I was able to track down the original source of the photo to find the subject as John Brown of Oi Polloi whose face I then recalled seeing in the never ending Deck Out look book.
Mr. Brown is, for lack of better words, killing it: waxed jacket, well-fitting chinos, and a pair of Quoddy moccasins. Oh, and of course the bike (which from the “M” on the downtube leads me to believe is a Mercian) is fitted with full fenders, a leather saddle, and leather bar tape. It’s not often I come across a street style photo where the person’s bike actually reflects the owners style but here you have it.

very cool. Echo’ing Steve McQueen, I think. I will say from personal experience, those waxed field jackets are not good for road bike riding. Maybe an upright or something.
For road riding definitely not, but for just around town riding they’re great on cool wet days. I own a Barbour Bedale which is much shorter and thus easier to wear on a bike, judging by the length I’d say he’s wearing a Border.
If only his driveside pant leg was rolled up.
Looks like a late 60s “King of Mercia” model Mercian in fact.
