What is mod clothing?
Sharp, simple and British. Mod clothing is the look of the mods, the young Londoners of the late 1950s who took their name from "modernist" and the modern jazz they loved. Italian-influenced suits, button-down shirts, knitted polos and a parka for the scooter defined the first wave, and the 1979 Quadrophenia revival and 1990s Britpop brought it back each time.
The mod brands. Fred Perry is the definitive mod label: the twin-tipped polo, buttoned to the top, and the Harrington jacket. Clarks Originals Desert Boots have been the mod shoe since the 1960s, and Lyle & Scott knitted polos and fine knitwear finish the look.
How to wear it. Keep it slim and neat: a polo shirt or a fine knit, dark jeans or tailored trousers, a Harrington from our outerwear, and Desert Boots. For the full story, read our guide to mod style, or see where it crosses over with football casual clothing.
