So much more honest than a faux hawk. Like the way it all works together, from the boots to the hair.

Agreed.

When I first read the topic heading, I was ready to cringe, but this guy seems to make it work and all the elements work well and work off of each other in an interesting way. I certainly couldn't pull it off, but I give credit to the guy for being able to do so.

There has to be at least three guys with mohawks here at Uni -- they all look like idiot poseurs. Now this guy; we could hang out. I want that jacket!

Regards,
Huntsman

I agree about the jacket, Huntsman. This is a great look. Not far removed from what I like to wear for casual purposes, except for the mohawk. And I used to have one of those.

The shades make it work. He'd look about half as good if he didn't have them.

Definitely agree that the shades are key, but I think that the coat is a great touch as well. The whole look just hangs together nicely.

What's interesting (at least to me) is imagining the same guy in a different haircut/style. The outfit really gives him a lot - his face is not that unusual/striking. With a Trad haircut and outfit he could be an investment banker.

Just goes to show - clothing is costume.

He looks great, like he's ready to go Travis Bickle on the whole damn city.

Is the model in the picture on the site Cocoa who models for luciano Barbera? It sure looks like her

 

[whoopee]

So many things I normally dislike, but he really looks great.

So awesome. I could never ever do this.

Looks good. Travis Bickle came to my mind too. However, I doubt that Travis Bickle ever wore Rag & Bone, and I'm pretty sure that this guy's jacket is (or is a very decent H&M rip off of).

In school this guy was once asked to write an essay about confidence. He submitted a picture of himself, he got an A+.

A.

 

[cheapmutha]

this is great... pulls it off like not many could.
