@rfkenmore More under the radar but I think Officine Creative make some of the most comfortable around.

Definitive BIFL/Grail Loafer List —Alden Leisure Handsewn (LHS) -American Ivy OG since 19th century -Strained production. Even stores asking to stock are being turned away —Crockett & Jones Harvard¹ -English take on Ivy -Slightly more refined than LHS -Easier to find rubber soled than Alden —JM Weston 180 -French icon, created mid 20th century -Still Ivy-inspired but most contemporary look of the lot -Distinctly high-walled with split toe -Tannery bought from Hermes Bonus: Seiji McCarthy -Bespoke commission -Hand made in Japan -American-inspired -Several thousand dollars ¹ London Suitmaker Anglo Italian offers a C&J variant called the Unley, which is also within the LHS x Harvard orbit. Refined further with a daintier vamp and more sloped, slipper-like

@rfkenmore In my mind, their premium was all in unique archival fabrics and prints. This makes no sense.

Gitman Vintage just put out an "Ultralight" version of their classic Oxford Shirt and it's.... $310 I don't know the internals at that brand, but I struggle to understand what they're doing Product keeps getting more and more expensive, while there has been no meaningful newness or improvement reflected in the assortment

@LeGrove So so good.

He is the best of Fan TV. Not even close. Give this man all the awards. The best of contemporary art.

@dylanviner Issue: none Interest: I talk about menswear

Did you know?

@rfkenmore Dialed in or not, I’ve never personally found a collection of theirs less aspirational.

SNL flashing some ball knowledge here

@ebitdaddy90 @rfkenmore I like it. I’m society.

@rfkenmore Yes these guys always follow the “I clearly don’t care what society thinks” school of fashion

This is a bit quirky for my personal taste, but I do like pops of color (or synthetics) contrasted with neutral hues (or naturals) like this Kind of the Drake’s approach I find it’s an easy way to make “normal” stuff not boring and more unique to you Picture these same styles with the contrast stripped.. You’d never look twice IG: @/aimeleondad

@rfkenmore Truly a terrible trend

You spend enough years staring at men's clothes and you realize everything is the same, but different New RRL quilted shirt jacket for SPR26 ...vs. Marine Layer, Faherty, Untuckit Same bones, just enough of a brand veneer to make it their own RRL/Faherty execute the best because they have the most robust brand filters to apply IMO

@VictoriaFutures It’s a tough time out there.

@VictoriaFutures @shewascoloured I’m hedging. I don’t want to go back but never threw my stockpile away.

@shewascoloured That seems to be the consensus. Even though there are numerous headlines that the skinny jean is “back” when it’s clearly not.

Did 5 focus groups with very cool people in London last week. One mentioned they are “interested” in going back to skinny jeans. 16 of them said they are still into baggier fits and won’t be changing.

@David_Rudnick Congrats David. Lovely to see

designed by Special Forces full documentation very soon

@michaelmiraflor /smart

It's pretty insane/absurd that Marty Supreme ($70M) required a larger budget than Civil War ($50M).

@VictoriaFutures Yup. Samba has been on the slide for at least 2 years.

It feels like forever but it’s actually *checks notes* 6 years since Grace Wales Bonner released her take on the samba.

@rfkenmore Cmon! Don’t you dare not explain this hot take. I think the stores and staff are pretty consistently excellent.

It’s funny — stores are supposed to make you appreciate and enjoy a brand more With Buck Mason, it’s the exact opposite for me

@mattkandela Get Welbeck in there

Premier league team of the year so far Raya Calafiori Gabriel Saliba Timber Caicedo Rice Xhaka Semenyo Haaland Ekitike Agreed?

@EduardoHagn @adamkeys_ @AkzAfc You’re the very worst part of online Arsenal fandom manifested.

@adamkeys_ @AkzAfc The aspect of selling is on Arteta and Berta, they will receive their due criticism if they fail before the end of the window. But, let’s see how ambitious the board are if they sell whoever they need to. We should expect a BIG signing.

There’s a lack of ambition from the owners. Last summer, Arsenal went on a profit. Everyone knows, including the manager and the sporting director, that this squad needs more. Liverpool, reigning champions, are going for Isak after spending over £300m. Yet, for Arsenal, it’s sell fringe players to buy.

@thekingmob @Ben_Phillips @sammillencramer St Albans Massive

@Ben_Phillips @dylanviner @sammillencramer DUDE

Been in lots of conversations about being back in London full time, etc and one of the most banal discussions that exists keeps surfacing - that of North v South London.

@Matt5cott Matt, you should be above posting any video giving air to this odious man, regardless of context.

Whether this is true or not is almost irrelevant. The fact is there is reasonable cause for suspicion given the number of interventions this season. The media’s conspiracy of silence around PGMOL and its officials as untouchable, irreproachable victims is an actual disgrace. 🔴⚪️

@EduardoHagn Doesn’t get worse than this. Club deserves better than you.

I think this Arsenal team has peaked in terms of level. Last summer was the one to give this team a new ceiling. It’s time to accept reality.
