Kitbag | Hip flasks | FOR THE REVIVALIST P roduced in collaboration with Harris Tweed and John Lewis & Co., this is a fabulously British liquor flask that any gentleman would be proud to be caught supping from; no man could admonish the booze-flushed owner of such an elegant tweed-clad receptacle. With its 6oz stainless steel body trimmed in Hebridean woven wool and leather, the hip flask is authenticated with the Harris brand’s label on the front. This is a must have accessory for Goodwood’s Revival bound spectators to help keep out that early autumn chill during the evening’s endurance races. Probably topped up with Hearach single malt (although not until 2018; four years after Harris’s first whisky distillery is fired up) Price £25.00 www.JohnLewis.com A SNIFTER FOR THE SHUTTERBUG C unningly disguised as a vintage camera this 6oz stainless steel hip flask is a must-have accessory for those brave snap-happy chaps who have to weather the elements in the name of photographic journalism while their co-editors thrash about in warm, dry cars thinking they’re Tiff-bloody-Needell. Yes, Mr. Duisburg, I’m talking to you! (You’ll need to see this month’s News from the Colonies feature and our Isle of Man roadtrip to understand this little rant). Probably topped up with ManX whiskey, distilled on the Isle of Man. Price: $16.59 www.Etsy.com 49
