Leather and tweed are a natural fit and I love how they’re integrated into this rather interesting boot. I think I’ll wear these on my upcoming pheasant hunt…
{Peal & Co. for Brooks Brothers}
This must be one of those optical illusions where if you stare long enough and then close your eyes you’ll see the silhouette of something else. In this case, you might see the silhouette of something other than a God awful hideous boot.
Top 5 men's clothing stores in NYC for someone on a bit of a budget?
Again, in no particular order:
In one of the more memorable scenes of the most overrated mafia film of all-time, A Bronx Tale, our protagonist and future convicted felon, Calogero Anello, coyly engages the apocryphal neighborhood boss, Sonny LoSpecchio, on how to win over the adolescent bombshell from Webster Avenue, Jane. Nonchalantly driving in reverse down the streets of City Island, Sonny lectures Calogero on the fairer sex, more specifically, on how to determine whether the woman you are courting is one of the three great women that all heterosexual men around the world are permitted by some ethereal force to encounter (Sonny doesn’t delve into the hard stuff, just his general philosophy). In any event, the scene ends with Sonny explaining how the Door Test is the true litmus to determine whether one has indeed found a “great one.”
Contrary to popular belief, women also watch movies. Many of them have seen A Bronx Tale, and as a result many of them now come prepared for the Door Test. Not to mention, many men live in major cities and do not own a car, which is a necessary element to the test. So the Door Test is no longer a foolproof way to identify whether your target is a great one.
So I present to you the Shitty Style Test™. It’s quite simple. Log on to Brooks Brothers and ask your target what she thinks of the above-pictured jacketigan. If she reacts in any way that may be deemed to be more favorable than the way the residents of South Park reacted upon reading The Tale of Scrotie McBoogerballs, then she ain’t a great one. Period.
Brooks Brothers CLEARLY is on one. As crazy as this jacket is, I would totally rock it with some grey Donegal tweed trousers, white OCBD, navy knit tie, black longwings, and black OJ gloves on some Thom Browne evil professor type shit.
Ooh. This is dope.

And don’t get it twisted, I want to burn Mr. Dent’s face over here so that he can fully play the part.
My dudes, you serious? ”On one”? ”Dope”? Combine that and you’re correct: Brooks Brothers is on dope. And I’m not talkin that shitty doots you find on college campuses, I mean free base mixed with fucking rat poison. I don’t care if that jacket is made from white Panda choked out by Hulk Hogan in China for your birthday. It’s shit, end of story.
