I love these! Why can't I find an optometrist in the Bay Area who carries them??? You can't order from their site. Help!

Sorry, but snap back caps are NOT couture, no matter how hard you try. They make people look like Daffy Duck, but with a lower IQ.

What's with the sign-up crap? How can I recommend something I can't even view? Sometimes I have to wonder about sites that make you do this -- better than spam, better than malware -- just give us, voluntarily, your email address and password.

Oh, well, I like the typography of their come-on.

I agree -- very nicely designed, for the rich and famous.

Nothing like a good badger shaving brush. This one looks like it has nice balance and a wide stroke.Go to your local art fair during the summer -- you're sure to find a local craftsman who makes these with cool wooden handles of exotic woods.

I like the felt wool gray and the red sole. Nice classic lines. I'm glad that bucks are making a come-back.

Wait, isn't this supposed to be Men's Fashions?

And look like your hat size is greater than your IQ...

So, welcome to planet Earth. Is there another way to iron a shirt? Front, back, sleeves, collar. Did I miss something?

bastokyg recommended this 1 year, 2 months ago

I like these. They look well made and thoughtfully designed.

I just ordered the Zuriick Wyatt in brown. I like the design -- we'll see about the fit and quality.

Very classy without being pretentious

Oh, this is nice. Very nice.

Love it. Kerning is something you know when you look at proportions all day and leading. Perfect typesetting makes for perfect reading, which imperfect typesetting makes for stumbling and forgetting.

Well, I'm not really recommending it, I'm just making snide comments. I'm sure Gucci shoes are very well made, but when I see these shoes I think "who would wear something that obviously says, like a sign, 'I have lots of money, but very little taste or imagination?'" There are really nice expensive shoes out there that don't scream Gucci.

Although I love my espresso, I also appreciate the subtleties of green tea, especially Japanese Sencha and Chinese Dragon Well, both of which would seem to brew very well in this pot. Watching the tea leaves open and bob up and down as they brew is very soothing. I'm going to have to get this pot.

Is there something wrong with this person? Maybe it's a composite Photoshopped photo. Scary.

I think my boss already has this shirt just waiting for me...

Well, if I wanted to go to work smelling like whiskey, I think I'd just spill some Jack on my shirt or have an Irish Whiskey with my toast.
