DUCK!!!
They call this fabric “duck”. I don’t know why, but they do. Duck is a canvas fabric made out of cotton, and the way it’s made it’s a lot tougher than, say, denim. And it can be a lot tougher. Apparently … Continue reading
The collection grows….
For the first time in my life, I own a pair of Levi’s. Overalls, of course. The fit on these is damned near perfect! I knew these were out there but I always assumed they weren’t my size, until someone … Continue reading
Of sweaters and such….
Two Christmases in a row, I petitioned The Wife for a white cable-knit sweater rather like the one Chris Evans wore in Knives Out. I didn’t petition her for this sweater because Chris Evans wore one in Knives Out, but I won’t say … Continue reading
In other new-shirt news….
The way I see it, if I’m going to take advantage of the fact that we’re allowed to wear team shirt on gamedays, my shirt should reflect my tastes at least a little. So: And, that linen shirt that I … Continue reading

“Well I’ll tell you this and I’ll tell you that, I’m very very scared of a very big hat!”
I’ve recently made an important decision regarding my wardrobe. It’s time to make a change. No, I’m not ditching overalls. I’m adding something. Yup: I’m starting to wear a hat. For me, this is kind of big, because I’ve never been … Continue reading
