Menswear Books

Pardon me if there's already a thread (or similar thread).

Any menswear books you've been reading you found interesting?

I picked up "The Handbook of Style: A Man's Guide to Looking Good" from the editors of Esquire magazine. So far haven't read it fully; just quickly skimmed it and found it to be a good reference. I also like the book itself-- great compact size, minimal design, light, and also a good price.

Someone also gave me "**** Yeah Menswear" from the editors of FYMW. I skip around the sections when I read it for my leisure. I've had a couple good laughs and find the content humorous/satirical at times. Good coffee book for personal guests. They even have a "Style Glossary" at the back-- I died when I read their definition for "Uggs". Below is the definition...

Uggs [uhgz] n. A hot girl you won't admit to dating cause she wears Uggs.

Yeah, there is at least one lengthy thread devoted to this topic there. You should readily find it via the search function.

Thanks. I saw there were discussions about books here/etc. I'll use the search tool next time so older threads pop up. Has been reposted to appropriate thread.

I tried figuring out to delete this thread.. looked at FAQ and still not sure. Am I overlooking something here?
