Like James Dean, For Sure


The Breton stripe, a wardrobe staple for every nautical nomad, was originally issued to French sailors in the late 19th century. The 21 stripes represented Napoleon's 21 campaign victories. The look became a favorite of sailors and fishermen around the globe. 

The Breton Stripe was popularized by American Actor James Dean who famously said "If a man can bridge the gap between life and death, if he can live on after he's dead, then maybe he was a great man". Dean did live on. He lived on in the hearts of those who sought to emulate his effortlessly cool style, his charm, and his aura of timeless youth. He left a legacy that was classic, timeless, and cool, and for that he will be remembered.

  3. At last, I found creative and stylish man-clothes blogger. Not to creative as you can usually see in many blogs of the teenage clowns. But a grownup cool man with his own thing. After I checked couple of your posts, I almost immediately bookmarked your blog. I have only one question: do you ever wear shorts and t-shirts? Or is it only for kids who are reading reviews on Essaytiger to find where better to buy their papers?
