Masuo in his Vintage Patagonia Jacket
Saw dude while shopping at Ralph Lauren’s RUGBY shop in San Francisco over the weekend. He overheard me telling a friend to try a shetland sweater. I think it was when I compared it to a Shaggy Dog that we connected… He was wearing 993’s, Levi’s and this great Patagonia jacket he purchased 20+ years ago. We got onto talking, He loves Patagonia and L.L. Bean, however he isn’t happy that Patagonia nor L.L. Bean Signature doesn’t ship to Japan. Regular LL Bean does, but signature does not. He remarked how he thinks his jacket is “from the days Patagonia was designed by a woman” The Rolex he also bought about 20 years ago! He recently bought a Patek Philippe watch that he was on a four year waiting list. Intown to check out restaurants as he is in the food business.
Poly/Cotton Roll & a Nice Dimple
I'm not entirely sure (don't recall most of the night) how the blazer works under a Belstaff, but I like his vintage poly/cotton shirt and what looks like a similar blend in his tie. The collar has such a great roll and the stitching is pretty great too. The way the tie is still tight yet the top button un-buttoned is real casual elegance. I hate when someone just losens their tie and it dangles like an ornament. This looks marvelous. Great knot to boot.
Julien Cahn
Cant find my beret this am so I’m posting this image. I searched Paris for 3 days for a specific beret. The label had a man walking with rain above his head. I knew it could get wet. Late nights around town and its gone. I’m kinda sad, dont know if I replace it with a Borsalino or just have to wait til I’m next in Paris.
Times Ball Cap
I love this man. The DB blazer with his ballcap that came free with his Times subscription 7 years ago, his ascot, v neck sweater and that pocket square! What a jovial fella.
