I bought a pair of the same Bjorgs about ten years ago on the reissue - Bjorg Elite Gold.

The leather is nowhere near as good as the originals, which was so soft it was like chamois leather.

the originals were kangaroo

I’ve got two fila ones from there but like you said the quality is cheap. Got a couple of Sergio track tops and the quality held up. I’ve noticed even stuff like stone island is poor now compared to when I started wearing it 16 years ago. Got 4 stone island jackets from when I started my apprentership and they’ve held up well. Missus got me one for my 30th birthday, washed it and it faded, went from a charcoal colour to light grey.

The market is huge and creeping into mainstream but they’re just gonna mass produce garbage product.

Might have to try purchase few track tops from original release and check the difference.

My boss as got a Sergio she’ll tracksuit from the 80’s. it’s smart and he’s been offered few hundred for it.

got an Original Fila Vilas tracky top like this

an Ellesse Lazio

another Ellesse that was a sample & some t-shirts Fila & Australian that are also from 'the day' the labels are the giveaway in them but they all have large patches as well which was rare back then, the croc on a lacoste tracky is about 2" long, i wanted an Izod but just gave up looking in the end.
 



Been looking at them too mate... the GTX (I think) looked decent but some of the range look awful. I do like the boots though.

yeah there are some decent boots, not sure how good a hiking boot like but I looked at some for summer as have some merrell winter boots that are toastie warm.
swift gtx but i didnt realise it had it down the side
