Die, Workwear! - Derek and Peter AMA - Vol 3

Derek Guy and Peter Zottolo return for the third installment of their quarterly AMA series, generously sponsored by our friends at Bezel. (https://shop.getbezel.com) This time, they go deep on fabric: navy sport coats, green double-breasted suits, the five tweeds they would choose from scratch, and the right cloth for a balmacaan. They also revisit bespoke mistakes, the tailors still on their wish lists, shoes for serious walking, the difference between personal style and costume, and what actually reads from across the room. Plus: date-night clothes without tailoring, keeping pet hair off your wardrobe, finding occasions to wear the clothes you already own, the appeal of authentic workwear, their favorite versions of menswear staples, and why the person you imagine in the mirror may not be the person everyone else sees. They close by designing the elusive middle-ground jacket—dressier than a chore coat, easier than a sport coat, and made for the romantic life of a writer. * Sponsored by Bezel (https://shop.getbezel.com) - the trusted marketplace for buying, selling, or insuring your next luxury watch  ** Fabric Recommendations Navy Sport Coat Derek’s Picks: • Holland & Sherry Mesh & Hopsack Blazers (https://apparel.hollandandsherry.com/en/story/HS2430) • Huddersfield (https://www.hfwltd.com/collection/162) or Smiths Mock Leno (https://www.harrisons1863.com/brand-portfolio/collection/smiths-finmeresco/)
