BracesjpressHow can you not love a guy with a fishing lure as a pin, cigar in his breast pocket and Belgian loafers? The monkey braces are as much a staple!

P1250589If you dont already own and wear a fur felt fedora from Borsalino, dont even think about wearing their ballcap. I want the purple joint bad! (my friends ask me why do they even make a ballcap, do you really want that)

P1250597 GOURMET in your face, love these guys.. a new take on a bean boot isn't always welcome, but i liked it when Manolo did it for the girls and now from Gourmet.

Interesting fact here, apparently- when you're taken, your girlfriend would cut that tag on the back of the shirt. you may refer to it as locker loop.. when we were in yeshiva we referred to it as something else..

This polo reminds me of the kid that lived across the sreet, he wasnt cool but had a few moe dollars and thought he was.. Now, i kinda dig the clasic styling of it. no side vents and while it looks like a 50/50 blend, its 100% cotton. Love how the logo seems to look like a monogram !!

Craft L.A. Just a great shop

I was pretty mad when my friend Peter told me he was moving to LA, after him pleading with me to come out there, I finally paid a visit and glad I did. All the years of us chatting about Balenciaga, Alden and Turnbull are finally paying off…

When they broke down the walls, they found this really old graffiti on the bricks. Im glad they left it exposed like they did. Its not in your face- you sorta have to almost look for it..

Run by Peter, his Lady Rosa and vintage expert Bill;is this truly magnificent shop. Really a comfortable shopping atmosphere, in fact, you only get spoken to if you so desire, otherwise help yourself! No salesman following you from item to item lecturing you about the designer and all that bullshit. Just quality garments and shoes and good conversation. To borrow from a recent write-up on hyrcollective.com – http://www.hyrcollective.com/daily-blog/2009/05/craft-la/
The space is really nice and open, clean with a emphasis on reused wood and steel for the fixtures and quality on the clothing. Michael Williams wrote a great piece on Craft for GQ’s blog as well
