    NWT Harley of Scotland for Unionmade Shaggy Dog - M - Price Drop!

    For sale is a new with tags, brushed shetland sweater (j-press shaggy dog) for Unionmade by Harley of Scotland. This is knitted in Scotland and is a gorgeous sweater. It is a slim medium and was too fitted for my tastes. The pit to pit measurement is 20 in. Mixed blue color called "Clipper."...

    PRICE DROP!: Loake Lennox (Chukka Boot) 11.5D (US)

    11.5D US oiled suede chukka. Wore it about two times around the house before I decided that the last shape was to aggressive for me. These have a more modern, elongated toe compared to an Alden chukka. Original price was in the $350 range. These are a nice dark brown with a brick red rubber...

    Is it possible to make a modern christmas album (music)

    As the season is upon us (for much of the western world) I find that the only christmas music I can stand comes out of the 40s/50s and maybe a bit of pre-Beatles 60s. All modern albums i have ever listened have a hint of the ironic about them that kills it for me. So I ask, is it possible to...

    Jeans+sportcoat: the new worst look?

    I used to think the jeans and sportcoat was a good look. Tweed jacket + dark jeans was a staple. Recently, i have lost faith that this can ever actually work (Andy Warhol notwithstanding). So, the question, can the jeans and jacket be redeemed, or has its popularity doomed it to caricature?

    Impending Fatherhood - Sartorial Emergency Kit

    So. I'm apparently going to be a father in the next few weeks. Not sure how this happened, but I blame TV. Or possibly the internet. As indicated by a raft of gratuitous daddy pics on the site, some of you have gone through this already. Since both my wife and I work, it will be up to me...

    JFK Suit Article/Inflationary Pressures on Bespoke

    So Vox posted this little article on JFK's suits on his blog Vox Article ostensibly to talk about European influences on the guys who's considered quintessentially the american trad dresser. You can find the LIFE article he mentions on google books right here. Sorta an interesting article...

    FS: Allen Edmunds Presidio Loafer 11.5D

    These are a barely worn pair of burgundy Allen Edmunds Presido loafers. I wore these about 3 times (once outside) for a grand total of 6 hours. The last these shoes are on just doesn't agree with my foot. So, up they go for relocation to a better home. Box and shoe bags are there and...
