Men in Milan
This week I am going to run a few of my favorite men's shots from my recent trip to Milan and Paris. Also I want to send a big thanks out to all the great people at Men.Style.com for sponsoring my trip and giving me the creative freedom and access to do the best work I could do. Thanks Jamie, Tim, Keith, Dirk, Tyler, Jon, and Alison for all your support!!

Comments on "Men in Milan"
I would LOVE to dress like this, but I think I'd be too self-concious wearing this in Vancouver.
I loved this photo! Your Men.Style.com updates were very enjoyable. I think your photos and comments are positive ecouragement to people, and especially guys, to add a little more style to their daily life. I know I am expressing myself with pocket squares on a new level!
This was a fanatasic picture. You caught this well dressed gentleman enjoying what seems to be a great cigar (probably Cuban, of course).
He also seems no to be in a hurry...
Buena Vida!!!
The man looks glamourous, elegant and masculine. The "gentleman" I can not say from the clothes...Let's say that moral qualities are not easy to determine by the style; that is a sartorial mystery.
Wow. Hot. And what a great bike. (Has he got a newspaper bungee-corded to the back? Perfect.)
SO Milan!
As always, you perfectly portrait the spirit of our city!
I was always wondering if its ok to ride a bike wearing a suit...or a blaser.... It still seems ...awkward....
I guess it totaly depends on a bicycle...
this pic reminds me of a old guy who used to bike down cambridge st. (in cambridge, ma) with a pipe in his mouth. at the time i lived at one end of cambridge st, worked at the other end. i'd see him in the morning, in the evening, on weekend afternoons: always, always with the pipe in his mouth (and generally both hands on his handlebars. the pipe looked permanently attached to his lip. ooh, that sounds gross, huh?)
unfortunately, pipe-smoking bicycle man was not half as stylish as this guy. i wonder if he's still around those parts...
I love everything about this. The spontaneity of the photo itself, the sunglasses, the hair, the fact that he's showing a helluva lot of cuff. The bicycle. Milanese in every sense of the word. Smashing!
he is the coolest.

catalogs - interesting
stay tuned!
I agree! This man, and this photograph, are too perfect. I have got to get myself to Milan.
Bikes are incredible.
This absolutely works in the states. Especially in the East, but easily the NW too. NYC Easy. In fact it works with more impact b/c it more unique here and he's not honking away in his mercedes trying to get to the Holland tunnel at 6pm.
(Now a beautiful stylish women on a bike is a whole other level...they always make my jaw drop.)
I wish that was my life right now.
This is just too good to be true.
What a shot. Reminds me of Marcello Mastroianni.
that's so cool! i'm inspired now.
It's more his attitude than anything else that makes this amazing, he's promoting a way of life without even knowing it.
he looks so cool and sexy (even though he's smoking)
Ha ha ha - I love this! Lovely suit, no socks on a bike with a cigarette and sunglasses. We will never see this in the US.
He is so hip!!!!!!!!!
This photo encapsulates all the twinkles that spark in my eyes when I'm in Milan or Rome... the men and the way they dress, almost always immaculately with a seemingly effortless natural style yet when observing a little longer you start noticing all these details that make you realize how much these Italian men embrace style and allure. Besides food (I'm one of those so called "foodies" out there), the second thing I love most when visiting Italy is observing men and what they're wearing...or actually I'd say it's a tie between food and checking dress styles out!!
this guy is so cool! you'll never see this in the states.
I just got back from milan and the men's wear there was out of this world. I adored it all. We stayed one street over from where this was taken, on Torino. I loved the people watching from the window.
This picture just did it for me !
I'm going to buy that new bicycle now !!
Mine was stolen and until today I was still hoping for my bike to come back to me ...
perhaps I just died and went to heaven. this shot is glorious!
Smoking and riding a bike. Probably not well matched but I love this pic. A very classic look

I love the fact that he's not wearing socks! It's perfect.
I'm sure you saw all the elements that make this shot outstanding (and much quicker than I probably did) but for me, I feel the fact that this (potentially) Italian man's riding a bike while smoking a cigar as also the fact that he's not wearing socks simply connects!
