Hamish sent us a request for some left inspired winter warmers. We’re a bit late for the snow now, but since it’s still pretty chilly outside here’s a little mood board of commie knitwear to get you inspired.
We received a tip off about this CND shirt from @aliceperryuk. It’s a satin-twill number by Moschino with a peace sign-cum-chain print and very pretty neck detailing. It’s in the sale at £140, so if you’re ridiculously rich, please redistribute your wealth by buying one for each of us.
We were sent this photo of Ed Maltby, who took some time out of his flat cap to try on this lovely funeral hat.

The only commendation here is Nathan Akehurst’s excellent military jacket. We’re pretty sure the guy next to him is Edward Maltby in 30 years time and the one next to him is Liam Burns with a beard and keffiyeh disguise…

Mikey Franklin was recommended to us for the blog. This was our favourite look from him that we found. Ooh-la-la!
Is young trade unionist Keir Greenaway the new heart throb of the left? Few activists can rock a suit like that.
