In the flesh, New Monks, and Quentin’s Count

Once you’ve had your fill of the new SI Swimsuit issue, Gentleman’s Gazette has assembled a list of 100, yes… one-hundred books on Men’s Fashion that you might want to consider for your library.  They’ve even ranked them from Must Have (“Dressing the Man”) to Niche (“Panama, a legendary hat”).  Sadly, “50 Ways to Wear Tevas” didn’t make the list.

Internet?  We don’t need no stinkin’ internet.  The Effortless Gent went to the Bonobos Guideshop.  As did Grant Harris for Men’s Flair.

Football’s over.  You know what that means.  Praying for a smooth feed of the free TNT Overtime stream of select NBA games (backboard cam is great).  That and it’s awards season.  Grantland’s got a tournament up and running to determine the worst Oscar moments in modern history.

Speaking of Movies:  Tarantino Movie Deaths.  Charted.

Need something else to read?

• Your date lost interest last night when you started talking Balmorals? Might want to read this.
• The Men’s Sunglasses Matrix.  No, the Morpheus Ear-Pieceless Special ain’t on there.
• Some of the guys on Threads are posting their haul from the Allen Edmonds Factory Seconds Sale.  Bow down to Jeff4 and his new pair of Neumora Monk Straps in Bourbon.  Good Grief man.
