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 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..
The shop has an incredible selection of vintage shoes, boots and outerwear to compliment the new pieces by Left Field, Alden, Sugar Cane and soon to come shirts by MISTER MORT.
Love a short sleeve sweatshirt, this vintage joint is no exception !
PLease click on this here military shirt jacket and see enlarged
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.

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

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

I met him outside a trade show in Las Vegas last week, really like how he wears a chambray shirt with khaki shorts- that tank top under is of course my favorite piece.
His wife made this special necklace for him. I want it, Someone make it for me please.
A more substantial pair of espadrilles than i have been seeing on men in NYC.. not saying men should be wearing these when in the big city, but if you are going to, please wear one with a decent sole.. those skimpy ones, along with the thin soled sneaker (and im not speaking of vans or seavees here) are just not for the streets. Seeing guys in those skippies all summer makes me want to step into some timbs this fall.
