BEATWEAR
It’s not hard to find Beatles
iconography in Liverpool, but if
you want to style yourself as a
member of the Fab Four, Beatwear
is the shop for you. This is the
place to find ‘60s-inspired finery,
from winklepicker boots and
drainpipe trousers and genuine
Chesterfield overcoats. The stylish
men’s outfitters stocks many items
bearing more than a tenuous link
to Liverpool’s favourite sons. While
the clothes aren’t cheap – vintage
threads rarely are – the pricing is
understandable; after all, sourcing
a pair of original ostrich-leather
boots is no mean feat. Indeed,
there is a selection of footwear to
be found at Beatwear, including
leather cavern boots, zip boots,
Chelsea boots, high-point boots
and Lennon boots. Hardcore
Beatles fans – the kind who might
be disposed to dressing like their
heroes, at least on occasions – will
be interested to note that you can
pick up the ‘George coat’ – from
Help! – or Ringo’s Abbey Road
frock coat. Alternatively, snap up
a stylish black Italian wool ‘Paul’
pea coat or an eye-catching Shea
moleskin Nehru coat. If you want
to add a touch of dash to your
wardrobe, several fashionable
mod suits are for sale, including a
debonair silver-grey mohair sheen
Hard Day’s Night suit. The finest
selection of retro ‘60s clothing in
Liverpool, Beatwear is well worth
a visit.
