I got a Hackett / Aston Rugby shirt for my birthday from a friend - sure they do polo tops too!

You can get Aston martin clothing from the website (astonmartin.com) and from the dealers.
The racing kit from www.astonmartinracing.com
The owners club kit (you have to be a member) from www.amoc.org

Or try ebay. I bought my ex-works Bovis Nimrod jacket there.

I can recommend Hackett as well for it will LAST a long time.

AM clothing washed in the same condition like the AMOC shirts or the Hackett ones is not worth that much. Loss of colour, poor fabric.

Personal suggestion: AVOID AM clothing... really.

Granted you get the badge but that's all you get. Quality is poor IMO.

Hackett and AMOC get the thumb up!

I have that jacket and the one that goes inside it. Quality is superb, IMO...

However, I managed to acquire a 'proper' team jacket as opposed to the replica one in the link, IIRC, it has Hackett on the front where the replica one just has a blank space, and that is the only difference, lol...

However, along with aston67, I would have to say the shirts and T-shirts I own have faded badly with minimal wear and washes

Those shirts are sooooo nice on a hot day though

The AM Racing Heavy Jacket is quite good and with this weather I make the most of it. Also with strong wind it is handy to have a hood

However... the only MINUS are the zip - the handle of the zip is quite weak and is prone to break quite soon if you zip in a hurry or you force it a bit. Hence pay attention

On the AMOC website my best pick is always the Rugby shirt. Perfect, good fabric and lasts a lot without fading. Top mark!
