Vintage find: waxed Barbour, Harris Tweed jacket or band tee

London's genuinely un-exportable shopping experience: one-off British heritage pieces (Barbour, tweed, punk-era tees) at a fraction of curated-vintage prices abroad.

Price: 45 GBP (Typical haggled market price (vintage Barbour £40-90, Harris Tweed £30-60, band tees £15-35) — estimate, varies by stall)

Where to buy: Portobello Road, Notting Hill (Friday/Saturday for vintage, go before 11am); Brick Lane Vintage Market & Beyond Retro, Shoreditch (Sundays best).

• Prices are unlisted and negotiable — this £45 figure is a fair-deal benchmark, not a verified tag
• Check vintage Barbours for wax dryness and zip health; re-waxing costs ~£30
• The same 'London vintage' pieces resell on Depop/Grailed in the US at 2-3x — buy what you'll wear, not to flip
• Cash still wins discounts at older stalls; Saturday afternoons are tourist-priced
