About Us
Ham Yard Vintage is a family run business by Guy and Beryl. Guy is based in France where he hand-picks every item. Early morning starts are spent searching markets and fairs for fresh vintage finds.
Beryl is in the UK where she photographs and carefully packs and wraps, making sure everything leaves the shop in great shape.
Our Story
Guy has been a collector of all things old, antique, and vintage for decades. Early mornings spent digging through flea markets became a lifelong habit, and when his finds began to outgrow his space, he decided to share them with others.
Born and bred in London, Guy grew up in the heart of the mod scene. As a teenager, he ran stalls at Greenwich, Portobello, and Camden, selling top vintage gear and collectables.
He has always worn second-hand, driven classic Italian scooters and German cars, and collected original 1960s American vinyl.
His favourite eras are the 1950s to 1970s, when clothes were made to last and design had real character. That passion is at the core of everything we do here.
What We Believe
We’ve been advocating slow, sustainable fashion for years. Fast fashion isn’t cheap, it costs the earth.
Our mission is simple:
Buy vintage. Reject fast fashion.
Vintage clothing lasts longer, fits better, and has a story to tell. Choose clothes with real craftsmanship and classic cuts that never date.
We specialise in French vintage workwear and military clothing, carefully selected for quality and authenticity. Military garments in particular are built to last a lifetime when properly looked after.
How We Work
Guy is constantly taking road trips across the South of France, sourcing fresh stock for the shop. We don’t buy by the kilo from wholesalers like some do. 
We specialise in French vintage clothing, accessories and homeware Guy carefully selects items for quality and authenticity. Every piece is chosen individually for its fabric, feel, and history.
Also we offer a finders service for specific items be it an un-worn moleskin chore coat or 10 Gitanes ashtrays for a film shoot.
