My favorite part is when is putting the watch on his wrist....and I'm thinking "here comes the IWC"

But No...it's the KC.

Did you see the microexpression on Dan's face as he's coming out of the dressing room at 1:23.

hey Dan trepanier actually seems to be a good sport.

He wins the title and now he's got to shell out perhaps $9000 in taxes for all the KC he's acquired.

..(which, won't even fetch half that much on ebay at bnwt even)

anyways, now i see the bigger picture of this esquire contest.

i think what they had in mind was to eventually have a person who best has that look to market Kenneth cole at the end. be a spokesmodel for it. they probably had in mind that mafoo was the 'best dressed' in general. but just look at Dan. you got to admit, he is a good looking model-like guy and is what KC perhaps inclined for Esquire to choose for them.

i congratulate both mafoo and Dan for being good sports in their respective situations.

I'm glad you guys picked up on the facial expressions in the video too. It can't get funnier than that.

This isn't meant to be entirely insulting to Dan but he just looks like a tool for both Esquire and Kenneth Cole. By winning the contest with his own sense of style it's like he now has to give up everything he's worked for only to wear Kenneth Cole.

I was waiting to see the IWC only to find him trading "up" for a KC watch.

LULZ. I, too, would have loved to see Foo do this little exercise.

you mean this isn't a look of adoration? A look of "I'm really thrilled to be here" or "I can't wait for everybody to see this!!!"
