ICONS – Alan Flusser
For the second installment in the ICONS series, I popped into the Alan Flusser Custom Shop for a chat with the master himself. Like Leonard Logsdail, Mr. Flusser’s shop is housed above street-level in Midtown Manhattan, and from the moment you step out of the elevator it feels more like a Deco gentleman’s club than a place to buy suits.

Thinking Through the Double Monk
I love the double monkstrap just as much as the next guy. But what I don’t like is the fashiony herd-mentality that has put all bi-buckled shoes under a blanket label and everyone and their mother pining for a pair. Any pair. Come on guys, let’s be a little more particular than that.
Rus et Urbs – Logsdail Classic
A few weeks ago I spoke with Leonard Logsdail about his experiences as one of the world’s finest bespoke tailors. But this week Len gave me a look at another side of his business, his line of clothing and accessories for the sporting life – Logsdail Classic.
Edward Green – Going to MRket
As everyone probably knows by now, it’s show week in New York city, with (capsule), MRket, and a few other scattered shows around the city.
