This is Gianpaolo of Al Bazar. He is Lino's partner.

In my mind, at all times, these guys look outrageously sexy, and I'm a happily straight, married man with kids.

But the bottom line is, these guys do it and they do it really, really f*cking well.

To be able to be in your 40s/50s and look like you're having this much fun with your clothing (and that clothing is suiting, for God's sake!) is unreal.

It doesn't matter that Al Bazar isn't "true Milan style." It doesn't have to be, because this is simply "true style."

Btw, let me pre-empt the talk of suspenders/braces with belt loops.

Yes, he's doing it.

Yes, to the clothing nerd community, it's a faux pas.

But to the entire rest of the world, nobody cares.

Put plainly, this is why Schuman is the f*cking man and this is why Al Bazar is the f*cking store. If any of us look this sexy in our old age, we'll have our daughters' friends all over us.

We'll be beating them away with sticks, of course, but they'll be after us. And that's the bottom line!

The reality is, Lino looks like an overbaked, overstuffed sausage 99% of the time. His jackets and pants are too tight, he wears huge knots with his spread collar shirts and then there is the unbuckled monks nonsense. I don't want to dress like him now nor when I am older.

Not really dude. Not many sailors with japanese dragons on their arms. It wouldnt be very common to find sailors with tattoos like that. The positioning sure, but not the actual piece.

Considering I have my whole chest and right arm done, 2/3 of my left arm, my feet, and one on my leg you would think I may know a thing or two about tattoos and their origins. Maybe not though.

He looks cool but I still think that belt loops with bracers looks stupid and the watch is a let down. Also the hair ... its not quite there. Overal though he's pretty electric.
