It takes a special Sartorialist to make slicked-back hair look good but it takes and extra-special one to make it look good even when dressed casually. Kids, don't try this at home without special supervision.

post a commentYeah--this guy's got it DOWN! (Note also the color-coordination of the cross-chest strap)....
kinda reminds me of pat riley's hair. he's one of my role models fashionwise.
what is he wearing underneath? i'm guessing white tennis shorts...
The color-coordination is smashing.
So, if hair-slicked-back works only for those few who can pull it off, what do you recommend for us regular-looking over-40 guys with (to be generous) receding hairlines?
I know we don't make it to the runways exactly, but some of us still care about how we look.
so very nice. sigh ... do you think he'd move to colorado?
He looks a lot like a modern reincarnation of Gary Cooper.
I love your blog. And true. Your photos are really good with this camera !
Delicious. He must be European...
Italian, no?
Main requirement to wear slicked-back hair effectively: a forehead that doesn't slope back too drastically. Otherwise the effect's about baldness....
Good choice of camera, the quality of this photo is amazing. Perfect lighting. Congrats!
i disagree. i don't think it takes much effort at all.
slicked-back or back-off-the face hair makes almost any man look at least 30% more handsome. guaranteed.
But that's the trick: square-jawed, good-looking types look good with almost anything, possibly even a bowl haircut.
hott!
the craziest part is that his outfit is coordinated with his EYES
He's so hot, I'm melting . . .
Kinda reminds me of our own West Coast hottie Gavin Newsom - the Mayor of San Francisco . .
i like it...his whole look looks fresh
Nice photo. Great use of depth-of-field.
My father tries to attempt this look, let's just say he needs work. I'll be sure to show this to him.

For every time this is done right, there are 999,000 times this is done wrong:s...lol
Are you really taking pics of random people on the street, or are you beginning to take pictures of your friends/acquaintances? I notice on of the posters noted that this guy works for RL. You just bought a suit from RL. Are you currying favors? Is this becoming a friends and family photo album?
I think he will look damn good with a shaved head...
is calhoun his first or last name? (and what's the other part of his name? i need to google it, NOW.... ;-)
Looks clean and unclumpy, with just the right amoun of shine... No stiff stuff...

this was totally random - i don't know him personally but Ralph is so big and employees so many people that the chance of shooting someone from Ralph is always high.
Besides my wife use to work there years ago so if I wanted to do that it would have happened in the very beginning.
Great photo.
very nice, indeed -- i feel as if i could reach through my computer screen and touch him. the new camera is a keeper.
wow. i mean wow! ugh, way to handsome
He looks like a young gregory peck..yummy..
I enjoy his look. i keep my crazy loose and thick Asian hair at bay with gel. It looks sharp and groomed amongst other things.
I was reading through the posts and had to comment on someone else's comment:
Crash said...
Handsome yes, my femail friends have a running joke... Look's like Tarzan, talk's like Jane...
Let's hope he doesn't sound like Jane when he opens his mouth..."
How queer that someone with the handle " Crash" would make such a wretched comment on sexual identity when the movie deals with racism...
Honestly, I found this comment quite offensive. If you are insinuating that when he talks like "Jane" , or because he is gay then he is less attractive or less of a man, then I'm sorry you read this, and forgive you for your upbringing and poor judgement.
Who cares what his sexual orientation is?? What does it matter? So what if he has an inclination to talk with a lisp, can you get past that? Can you see that and judge his sartorial appeal?
He may not be straight, but realize fags are here, read the blog, and are sensitive about those comments. I only wish i wasn't an anonymous blogger so you dont think i'm a coward of any sorts.
ps. spellcheck female.

for anon 11:28 . . .
Christophe,
WELL SAID . . . I had the same reaction when I read that post yesterday . . . . and was just signing back in to comment about it . . .
Thanks for beating me to the punch . . .
You know, I was so dumb that I didn't understand the implications of the Tarzan, Jane comment until I read Christophe's rebuttal. Right on, Christophe!
I'd like to add that whatever his sexual preference might be, this man looks mighty fine and masculine to me. I think that gay men can be incredibly masculine, too. Masculinity comes in many flavors--please let's not perpetuate the idea that Real Men have to look and act like Rambo.
he's gorgeous and I agree - one of few that can really wear that back-slick hairstyle. hot ;)
