Comments on "On the Street.....At Glockenbachvierte, Munich"
I dig the look. Really. But I guess there isn't a catchy condescending word for "Mandals" in German.
Sart, I love your work and your blog, you know I do, but sometimes your scarf fetish (I mean that in a nice way) derails you, this is a case in point: a very average to bad outfit, and the scarf does not elevate it, instead it makes it look more contrived. I know you'll disagree and try justify it, but come on folks!
lets get one thing straight
I DO NOT HAVE A SCARF FETISH!!
I HAVE SCARF ENVY!
I do have a shirt fetish though
He he Scott... I like the total look but he could have gotten better sandals, these are not looking good, especially compared to that scarf.
Just a correction, it is written Glockenbachviertel (with an i at the end)!
how do you do that? i think this is the first time i have seen flowers in your background - usually some ultra urban backdrop - & the flowers in the background make that scarf just pop out of the photo. quite amazing.
ah ha, an example of a light weight scarf! this one works in the sunny weather.
To me, there's a sartorial collision here: basic, spring-ish sportswear, informal down to the sandals and then....a whoosh of large scarf--an element from another dress approach, and geared for another season, entirely. It makes one wonder what he was thinking.
He looks extra silly with the scarf on an obviously gorgeous day.
When you look at the history of the cravate, there were those points in its development at which the neckwear looked clownish. This is a throw-back to those times. This photo can only be about the scarf, and it looks terrible.
I was wondering about scarves and warm weather.
And we all know about your thing with girls on bikes.... < grin >
Maybe I haven't undestand it really well...
Premiering in...WHAT???
Hahaha!
Please don't use "pop" anymore. Please.
He looks really great, and his scrave is so beautiful!
It is called "Glockenbachviertel"
(you missed the 'l' at the end. "Viertel" is a quarter...I thought you might want to know)
Excuse me if you have mentioned this before, but are you visiting a lot of countries on your trip overseas? I would love it if you could visit Norway as well. A nice country with nice people!

I love the mix of spring and summer look on the guy. The sandals are obviously for summer but the scarf is such a spring accessory. I love it. I think it's fabulous. Best photo from Munich so far.
After reading Sart's "scarf envy", I have to add this comment.
The printed cotton scarf (as opposed to the usual cashmere or wool knitted scarf) thing has created quite a debate in NYC recently esp. with the popularity of the black & white checkered Yassir Arafat print that is gaining some attention about fashionistas.
This scarf looks like a light weight cotton print too.
This looks like his head was pasted on.
hi,i'm your fans from china.maybe you would be some surprised but reading your blog really be a part of my life.:)
if you were traveling in various then-bohemian summer spots such as the Greek Islands around 15-20 years ago, you would have seen a million Yasir Arafat-printed scarves on the scruffy Euro-hippie types. Funny that they are just now being picked up by the fashionistas!

I second the dismissal of the word "pop". What would one use as a replacement? "complimentary contrast"? "tonal compliment"?
Munich is great - but I think it is not really easy to find stylish
people here... he looks sympathic ;D
I like the scarf, but hate sandals on men in a metropolis. So wrong. I also think this is more of an end of summer outfit rather than a beginning.
hey sart. saw u today at götgatan at söder in stockholm. you looked F-A-B. I couldn't stop staring at you.. kisses/a
I want those sandals!!
ps: im a female teen, strange?
He is a very cute boy, and he has a gentle vibe. Love the scarf, pants, sandals. A free spirit. Sweet. xoxo, Lady
I like everything but the sandals. Why does the men's market in sandals offer us such poor choices.
Hey where do all these rules come from? Men shouldn't wear sandals in metropolitan areas. This is a late summer outfit. Scarves shouldn't be worn when the sun is shining.
It looks like the perfect outfit for hanging out in the park on a nice day... isn't that enough?
That scarf overpowers the blandness of his outfit. The way the scarf is tied reminds me of a man who rushed away from the dinner table too soon and is still wearing a bib.
The scarf and sandals throw my eyes off balance. Is this good or bad?
That large a scarf with such a trim shirt is not a good match.
