With all the shmutz Vegas and these tradeshows have to offer, theres a few diamonds in the rough.. and I believe i found them


I love denim on denim and stay tuned for a full feature on this topic!



He said it was his Michael Jackson tribute

This dude works for Pal Zileri,interesting to see an italian cat with a suit and chucks and harris tweed hat.. he was kinda killing it, minus the wool hat in the desert.. it was 103 degrees




How 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!
If 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)
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.
I was honoured when shutterbug William Gentle wrote me asking if we could work together. I was not yet familiar with his website and after checking it out,i obliged. He choses people for their individual style and has them chose looks and heads to a location he seeks out. I have worked with other shooters and have never felt so at ease with a photographer. Lets not kid, Im no model; but I like the way these turned out. Check out his work after i toot my own horn below

This is a member of the Flying Horsemen, group of guys who fly World War II Mustangs at air shows around the globe. Some guys golf, others fly old fighter planes. I was flown out by helicopter to watch them practice, pretty rad. I of course like their flightsuits and that they keep their original paint schemes unlike other planes sponsored by jelly belly and have jelly beans all over them!
I love a Double Breasted suit, but I have only seen a few cotton versions. Spectacular
A Captain catching shut eye.
Love a girl in a trench

One of my favorite shirts when done right, and Im happy Dockers is actually reproducing it. He's murdering it with a nice khaki pant and his Prowalkers from Rockport or Mephisto, and that roller buckle belt!
Classic. 























It’s spring; time to put our winter gear away but you can still wear a fur-felt hat, and welcome straw.
’bout to go off right now.
Too many fellas have been wearing the worst hats lately. These stingy brimmed hard looking things. Every hat is the same shape, no movement. like my dad’s london fog rain hat. In every possible fabric- plasticy looking white or cream straw hats with generric black bands. The straw hat of yesterday bought while on vacation has been replaced by the $9.99 version at MJ or Canal Street I saw so many during the winter- fools, When you can wear fur felt, {in the cold winter months in NYC}why would one wear a hat that the wind breezes right through? Because you saw Britney or Justin wearing one? LA’sinfluence in NYC is giving me an ulcer.
Don’t tell me you have not been seeing guys wearing t- shirts with scarves…or even gloves and a t-shirt! Or, my least favorite- the tuck… what is going on with guys tucking any pant into almost any footwear?
all winter i saw guys with their skin tight jeans tucked into untied boots.. and a just hoodie or light jacket when it’s snowing! I know we are not in Maine, but we’re sure not in LA LA Land
