What does 90’s menswear mean, second time around?

I would have bet against the persistence of the ’90s fashion’ trend. By now I assumed it would have eaten its own multicoloured Benetton tail. But not only won’t it quit, it appears to be intensifying. It’s now the de facto uniform for anyone under… Read More

The best indie menswear shops in Amsterdam

Before traveling anywhere, the first thing I do is Google: “Independent menswear shops Amsterdam.” I confess, I do tend to change the location depending on where I’m going. For instance, I have found it unhelpful to use a map of the Oosterparkbuurt to find decent… Read More

Anyone remember subtlety?

How’s your menswear journey going? I look around London right now and I see a lot of gilets. And ‘quirky’ Salomon sneakers. I see artisanal anoraks and loads of guys all expressing their personal style by wearing technical vests. I see bibs, aprons, neckerchiefs, embroidered… Read More

Dressing for inconvenience

I like my travel like I like my social media: authentic. So obviously, when I spend £250 on a pair of train tickets, what I’m looking for is a service that runs over 30 minutes late and is so rammed I have to stand for… Read More

Anterior motive

I’m not surprised that nostalgia continues to dominate cultural conversation. After all, who’d want to live in the now?

Young families: an appreciation

The consequences of aging are well documented. Impossible hangovers, hair loss, lower back pain, wheezing, man-nappies… followed by a long slow death, postponed by medication and surveyed by increasingly impatient relatives.

LinkedOut: job hunting adventures on the platform powered by cringe

As the French philosopher, Michel de Montaigne, put it: “We are more unhappy to see people ahead of us, than happy to see people behind us.” It’s a remarkable insight. Especially as it came over 400 years before the launch of LinkedIn.

What is #mid and should you even care?

Are you panicking about #mid? Freaking out about how your taste is suddenly in jeopardy? Questioning your clothes, furniture, the cafes you visit? Any idea what I’m whanging on about?

Dover Street Market Market: the good, the bad and the greedy

Let’s get this straight: Dover Street Market Market is not cool. It’s fabled, certainly. It’s spoken of with excitement, with breathless FOMO. It’s rare, it only occurs only once every five (or so) years. And it’s the only place you’ll find Comme des Garçons and… Read More

Capitalistic guilt? Ecological dread? Or just too many clothes?

A few notable things happened yesterday. While at Shoreditch House I yanked and yanked at a sliding metal door until my face went red, only to have a staff member explain that what I’d taken to be access to the swimming pool was in fact… Read More

Just different enough
