I mean, no one could really be as ... unusual ... as Eric Glennie, and that leaves evil genius as the only possibility.

Gotta be Manton.

Eric is not the only visionary on this forum. I too have applied for design patents for my unique fashion creations. I believe my work, like Eric's, is revolutionary. Plus a lot of math curves were involved.

I present you with my practical yet stylish designs


100% silk

Eric, I realize you are a bigshot in the business and don't have much time for someone starting out, but any insight or advice you can pass on will much appreciated by this fan.

Thank you

Good day. I invented the St. Louis Crossover Pilsner Overhead Holder. U.S. Patent no. 54,986. I have revolutionized headwear like no other man has. Look at all those other hats, they are not revolutinary. They are simple arithmetic, while mine is advanced trigonometry! I would also wish SoCal2NYC would also introduce me to Mr. Thom Browne. I think they would look good with his "Peewee Herman Geek chick look."

I love all things Eric Glennie, but I'm banking on it all being the work of our "other" Eric, VMan. He's an evil genius.

Excuse me, sir, but Mypos was near Greece, not in Minnesota. Perhaps you could brush up on your 80s television before making such bold statements!

You know, I actually quite like this collar:

Add a dark charcoal Dior Homme-esque suit, and replace the pizza grenade tie with a silver basketweave or something, and I could see it would have its place.

But these ones...

He's just cut halfway up each collar point, then folded them back, right?

... right?

I can see the frayed edges, man!

The thing is EG you aren't revolutionizing anything...you are just cutting out a few things in the collars and cuffs. If you had created an entire new concept of the shirt or trousers then perhaps you have some grounds for your delusions of mediocrity.

I just wanted to let the menswear community know where this crossover style originated ( my basement). Please take a look at the attachment to view my patent. If there is any patent attorney that wishes to dispute my claim, please send me an email and my phone is always open. I just want to let the menswear historians out there know where this revolutionary style originated. Thanks Eric Glennie 952-913-8708
