For many, myself included, the 1920s will be best characterised by Prohibition and the 3 piece suits favoured by both G-men (FBI agents) and gangsters ala Al Capone himself. What started from a little noticed trend of fedora wearing celebrities like Timberlake and Johnny Depp has reached full circle two tone brogue shoe proportions driven […]

I’d never knock Rolex. It’s a good brand. They make great watches. Mr. Bond wears them. They’re the only watch company in Geneva that makes all components, cases and movements in-house (that’s why they’re so darned expensive).

This belt makes our Curated Selection on the basis of the daring blend of blue and beige elastic rubber yarn. One belt, multiple looks and colour matching combinations, the double logo on the belt buckle […]

A real man’s bag should be ready for any situation like the man who carries it. Bow tie on, James Bond (Daniel Craig version please) is Mr. Smooth. Bow tie off, James Bond is ready for action or a bout of snogging, it’s the same blazer but two different looks. Get the drift? I always […]

Well, Michael Westen is more burnt spy than secret agent but the truth of the matter is, even though he’s obviously spent a lot of time getting rated in anything that fires a bullet or holds an edge, TV land’s latest (ex)covert operative obviously has fantastic taste in designer threads. Dressing like a secret agent […]
