What, you thought they had begun hibernating for the winter? Oh no, my friends. Deck the halls with trouser folly! I walked behind this gentleman for the final few blocks of yesterday morning’s commute: Yes. His trousers really are that short. His jacket sleeves really are that long.

Look, this is ridiculous. Cotton (brushed, poplin) suits look crappy, even on the models! As soon as a man sits down, they wrinkle, I don’t care in what fancy shop they were bought. People. It’s linen. It’s seersucker. (But what possesses people to ever wear black with seersucker, anyway? Oxblood, at the darkest. Oxblood spectators [...]
