They are the best rockabilly band to ever exist besides maybe Elvis Presley and The Blue Moon Boys which were his 50s band from Sun Records who inspired Brian Setzer to start the stray cats. And how the drummer stands up while he plays is so punk rock as well.

Stray cats got most of their stage gear in the Kings Road London. Johnsons for the trousers and shirts, Robot for the shoes, American Classics and 'Flip' for the vintage stuff. You could but some fantastic stuff in the late 70s early 80s and the Kings Road was really the only place to get it. Eventually the prices became ridiculous as much of the 50s/60s stuff became rare. In 1980 you could buy red selvedge Levis in good condition for £10, an original embroidered bowling shirt for £7/10 and fantastically well (British) made brothel creepers, loads of styles for £20. You can still get the shoes, but they're £200+ now. Johnsons sold all new gear under 'La Rocka' label. They produced all the pastel peg slacks and box jackets, leather gear with the skull and cross bones studs and buttons, Japanese rising sun motifs on everything, tribal prints and biker boots. Johnsons was expensive though.

@@RicTic66 Super cool info, thanks! In the States, Los Angeles in particular, Melrose was the place to shop. Flip was super cheap in '81/82, $5 shirts (sometimes cheaper), $10 pants, and cool Flip Jeans for, I think, $20. Cowboys and Poodles sold new old stock 50's clothes and shoes (kind of expensive, but not bad at all considering what they were selling), and Let It Rock! sold new Rockabilly clothes from England, like what you described at Johnsons (definitely more expensive). We had loads of orignial 50's stuff here at that time that you could mine in thrift stores throughout the county if you wanted it bad enough.
