Ethan’s Grails: The Brown 1930s/40s SB with Patch Pockets
Time to start a new feature on this blog: Ethan’s grails. The star of this inaugural piece is a fantastic suit with the cut and designs I’ve been obsessed with ever since I got into vintage menswear. I may just have to get it replicated (with updated fit details).

Why You Should Consider Vintage Ties from the 1930s-1940s
CRAZY LONG POST ALERT (lots of pictures!)
Vintage and vintage inspired looks are what comprise a majority of this blog. Now Spencer and I agree that you don’t have to stick with one area to dress well. You can always wear tailored thrifted trousers or a modern suit to create a look that takes cues from both contemporary and Golden Era looks. However, if you really want to have a look that truly throws it back to the 1920s-1940s, there’s one thing you can’t skimp out on: the tie. The fact that these vintage ties have such a unique print, fabric, and construction makes it as if you’re wearing a piece of sartorial art around your neck.
The Monsivais & Co Grand Opening
