Keen to ensure that Penfield don't get all the Puffa Gilet action this season, the Fila Vintage Bombedera Gilet has Fila yet again dipping into their Ski wear heritage to bring us very light and very warm winter wear. With your arms free it's much easier to, say, change a lightbulb. When it's a bit cold.
This Gilet and the rest of our Fila Vintage and Fila Gold range can be found over at StuartsLondon.com
As if these weren't exclusive enough already, we now have in stock the Fila Vintage Green Terrinda Jacket with a 'Pro Badge' in the style of those jackets originally issued to players and not available to the buying public.
These are extremely limited, so be quick…

Due to the huge success of the red Spin Jacket the Peacoat Navy and Gardenia (white) have been added to the collection. Stock is limited. Slim fit style, based on an archive replica the Spin Jacket has become one of the most popular styles this season.
"it's bit of an underdog" says Ravi at Stuartslondon.com "We were not expecting the demand on this style to be as much as it has become, and we bought way under expecting it to be a normal sell-through style. Thankfully we have managed to secure some more stock, and the navy, since we added them to our store and website, have began to sell faster than the red"
The Spin Jacket is made from poly triacetate, giving the jacket the old school retro feel and look.

StuartsLondon.com does not stock much of the Fila Gold range, just select items. When I talk to the guys at Stuarts they are very cautious about this range, which is a shame. They know they can sell Terrinda (when they get it). They know they can get a great response when the reissues come in. But come on! This is 2009, and we can't just lust over something wed wore when we were 15.
The Fila Gold range is, as I see it, a continuation of the styles we wore, not a reproduction of them (Fila Vintage caters to that). Fila Gold is an honest approach to the question: What should we do next..? Let's take the best of the past, and apply it to the present, the 21st century.
I know that there is a lot more to Fila Gold. I get to see the lines that Stuarts choose not to stock. To find-out more, or to see the current Fila Vintage / Gold range go to StuartsLondon.com, or Contact us

Crying-out to be teamed with the Bomedera Gillet, the Siro really reminds me of those Patrick cagoules we used to wear way back when. Here's the specs:

In next month, in red and navy, this fantastic retro ski jacket - it makes me think of Roger Moore's James Bond. Although it doesn't come with Union Flag parachute. Oh well.

Don't get us wrong, we love summer, the great tees, nice polos, sharp shorts. But when the season cools down we can wrap up in great winter gear like sweaters, ski jackets, boots and hats.
So we're looking forward to these beanies from Fila - the Vintage Beanie (above) and the Vintage Snow Time Beanie (below). Due to land this month at Stuarts London they bring some 80's ski resort style to the humble beanie hat. Bring on the winter.

Perhaps the Sergio Tacchini fanboys out there might disagree, but Fila are really coming-up with the goods this season.
Take this fantastic Bjorna Jacket/Track top. Don't be put off by the pretty-boy Italian model - you can wear this your way. Those of you in the know will know this as the Matchday Mark 2 Jacket. Looks great over a Sergio Tacchini Dec Cedarmac Polo Top in Italian Blue & Navy. Honest.
