I always used to think leather boots and shoes were reserved for special occasions, and you had to wear sneakers during the day. This was when I was younger. But now I know that smarter shoes can be worn all day, thanks in part to modern shoe manufacturers making them comfortable enough to wear every day. Timberland are my first choice, with all day comfort and killer designs[...]
Look, when Cape Town gets hot and bright, it gets hot, bright, sweaty and sexual. If you’re not trying to fight the glare from the sun, you’re trying to fight the glare from everyones raging ego’s because they are shit hot. But why are we still selling sunglasses inside?[...]
While Ray Ban are best known for their Aviators and Wayfarers, my favorite Ray Bans are in fact a lesser known model called ‘Caravan’ Offering solid lines and a definite masculine feel to them, they make a good change from Wayfarers and Aviators, and also won’t have you falling into the hipster category. Which is reason enough to buy them[...]
There is a general feeling that getting a good fragrance comes at a price. Sure the likes of Armani and Hugo Boss don’t come cheap, but that’s expensive action you’re paying for. Caprice chicks won’t even look at you if you smell like Shield. If you’re looking for great mens fragrances for R200, try the Body Shop. It’ll change your life[...]
You know what sucks? That it’s difficult to find awesome leather jackets in South Africa. We have an abundance of leather, but no one talented enough design and manufacture them. And we don’t get many imported ones. But this by Diesel, is awesome[..]
In the next edition of ‘Change Room Superhero’ I visited Woolworths for you because I cannot get enough of their t-shirts. I’ve stopped buying round neck shirts and now exclusively wear v-neck t shirts. Check it out after the jump[...]

Do you ever see old men, in their baggy khaki pants, with massive bulges…not from their pieces, but rather from their wallets? Don’t be those men. Get a wallet that complements your slimline look. Get the wallet that has been featured in GQ, Esquire, Maxim and FHM. The wallet that Snoop Dogg has been seen using. Get a J Fold wallet[...]
You know what baggy, khaki colour khaki pants remind me of? Estate agents. And school old boys trying to ‘look smart’ with those disgusting blue shirts they pair them with. And square toe black shoes from Shoe City. Don’t be that guy. Get a better colour khaki, like these ones[...]
I took my car to Ryan’s Car Wash in Cape Quarter yesterday, and while I waited for the full valet, I took a stroll to the Waterfront and conveniently popped into Sunglass Hut. I’m not a fan of all their sunglasses, but I cannot deny that their Persol’s are beyond amazing. Solid build, top lenses and looks to kill. I spotted the Roadster GT’s, and they are crazy[...]
One thing I wish Woolworths would do is change the ‘RE’ name, it’s not really something you can say you’re wearing. What shirt is that? ‘RE’ Saying you’re wearing a ‘Scotch & Soda’ t-shirt would be much cooler. Anyway, besides that the new stock is looking quite rad[...]
Perfect for the hipsters. ‘Just one gear on my fixie bike!’ But a cool concept nonetheless:
Read More Add a CommentI love a classic leather bag, like MEN used to use in the old days. Men who invented the wheel and built the Eiffel Tower. Fossil know all about vintage with their classic mens leather bags. Check them out[...]
Naturally Not Suitable For Work, depending on how awesome your boss is. I can do what I like because I make the rules. Anyway, here are some naughty pics of what the Pirelli Calendar is throwing down for 2012[...]
