Timeless Style... The Jam


I have discovered some quite rare snaps of Paul Weller and Rick Buckler from the Jam with some of their young fans. I discovered these photo's on a
fan page about the Jam. These images feel really nostalgic and show the fashion and style of this mod band and their fans. Their style usually consisted of tailored suits, but even out of the suit Weller can be seen in a navy marine cap, big neckerchief, denim jacket and tailored grey trousers. Their fans can also be seen copying the style of the Jam with their harrington bombers, v-neck sweaters and casual trousers. This style along with their angry young music placed The Jam at forefront of the mod revival movement and these images really summarize my historical and cultural influences.
