Continuing my Japan series, we have a special visit to another one of my heroes: Yamamoto-san of Tailor Caid, the famous Japanese ivy tailoring shop.  Spoiler alert, we have more in common than you might think, and that’s not just due to our love of ivy!  Read More

Visiting Bryceland’s was an incredible experience because it allowed me not only to see the store which has inspired me so much in recent years, but also because of the opportunity to meet one of my style icons.

I can only hope that I acted as chill as I thought I was being.  Probably not.

A night of Asian Glow (and Spencer)
Speaking of standing out, I guess I can share these now: @bitchplisse shot for the EHF fit battle while we were in Joshua Tree
Recent fits in no particular chronological order
I’ve always been asked how I deal with standing out since it’s always cautioned against in most menswear circles/media. My answer is that my friends and I have always stood out, whether it was through fashion or not!
We love vintage
Spencers apartment
Howdy howdy howdy
Sittin on film. Haven’t shot much analog in a while!
Fits and pics from my little weekend in Joshua Tree! Did a little blog post about it, but it’s more about how it’s been fun to take trips with friends, which is something I had never really done before!
