Comments on "GQ Preview - Boots & Suits, NYC"
PERFECT.
i don't think jeans and a blazer is a suit, mate.
manly man. I love it.
oh man, I would so marry him.
and I always loved blue and brown against my mother laws!!
Flawless.
The guy represents cool. Besides, his whole outfit - blazer, jeans, boots - give me a feeling like he walked out of an G-Star ad.
nice boots!
inspiring (:
Fantastic boots...lov'em...its nice how he still looks kinda formal with the pants inside his boots thanks to the jacket...nice!

i love it. what brand are the boots?
Not a suit but elegant nonetheless! Brilliant!
I want those boots!!!! where do I get them?
oh, i love this silhouette.
excellent boots, too.
Sorry Sart, but this look isn't working for me. I like it from the knees up but the boots?! i'm like what is going on?? Maybe i'm getting old....
(love the composition of the photo though, side on, 3/4 profile and the row of yellow cabs in the background, great light too.)
Great blazer! I'm not a fan of the boots but he does have the aura of indie rock star.
Feelin' the steez on this one...
I Love those boots!! so cool
Had me until I saw the boots....
I love those boots !!
It's stuporfuture-y.
cute, I like this.
I love the boots, and I love how handsome and manly he is, while still being very stylish.
Anyone know who makes the boots?
I want more Rio :(
This guy has a bad posture and I´m not quite sure about whats fantastic about this outfit. Any one could come up w this "by accident".
Can´t agree w most of the previous posts

Oh, my favourite workboots for boys! My boyf wore them in the early '90s when he worked as a landscaper...sigh. This fellow's bringing them uptown, with good results.
It's less "boots and suits" and more "blazer and jeans". But, that is fine. I'm a long-time fan of blazers paired with jeans. I find it to be a great weekend look.
I don't love the boots, but I like the grooming. The hair length matches the beard length. The color of the beard adds some flair.
This guy is handsome and confident, with a Heath Ledger-ish Chris Martin-ness about him. But the outfit - while not a disaster - is a bit of a miss. It's just too much of a leap from the pinstriped blazer to the sloppily-laced boots. And the standard-issue jeans aren't helping to bridge the gap for me. This guy needs the blue, fur-hooded parka that your cigarette- smoking LV-bag toting dude had last week. And THAT guy could have used this guy's sportcoat. Maybe you could arrange the swap?
I want those boots, where can i get them?
lace up boots on men. specifically lace up boots on men = the color of the season. you heard it here last.
I think the man is making the clothes here, that he has a carefully considered sense of style and knows how to work it and it looks good. This would not have the same effect worn by just anyone, and it's easy to picture it on different types and imagine the results (try it!). Nice photo.
Strange how one choice on his outfit completely changes his looks, if he had some smart brown lace ups on he would look very smart casual, but the boots completely change the look. Especially tucking the jeans into them. Not sure I would be brave enough to tuck the jeans into the boots but it looks cool on this guy.
Anyone reckon they are brave enough to tuck the jeans in?
The world needs to know what those boots are.
Beautiful, manly and stylish
I don't know why everybody liked the boots, it is not good mach and it destroyed the combination of blazer and jeans, I think if he wears them with Chelsea boots, he could keep the form and even look more active.
trying waaaayyyyy to hard, judging by the cabs in the background i don't think he's off for a hike...
great posture… in this case the man makes completely the outfit... not the way around. Makes you dream about boots (agree with some of your audience, not amazing), blazers... etc
About Rio… what Rio have you been… I'm surprised ?! Is it really possible to find so many people fancy in that small wall, but all good/great… on the other hand Moscow blowned me away! Thank you!
The boots are USA made by Red Wing boots, the style is the 877 I think- check their website. I bought a pair of their boots about a year ago (always the trend-setter, NOT!) and I like them because I wear them everywhere: clubs, when traveling; they are extremely versatile and sturdy. I pair them with jeans, but as far as adding a jacket I would add a soft-construction one in fabric like chino or something very very casual. The jacket in the picture looks too formal for my taste. The Red Wings are worth the money. Jorge from W Palm Beach
YUM!
he's in need of a bloody resole.
I LOVEI T
It really looks like he were posing for an ad! Love the blazer/denim look paired with a more casual looking boot. It's like a more refined Urban look.
The boots are Li'l Abners. They look kinda classically run down at the heel, like they used to belong to his old man (a retired Polish steelworker) who's youngest boy went to art school in Pittsburgh. Now he's a painter in L.I.C who dates sane and grounded ex-models who work with kids and can cook pierogies from scratch!
Oh I see you took a picture of my boyfriend.
Lovely. He would make a good groom to the lady some photos below in the ivory lace dress.
fun with fashion. love it.
I think they're called rigger boots, intentionally without heels for walking on girders way up high. I had a pair years ago, and they were made by Gorilla or HH Brown (Canadian companies?) and I'm pretty sure most workwear stores carry them.
As I recall, the soles were foam and wore down really quickly.
Relaxed.Chic.Cool.
Love the entire look, and what a gorgeous man.
i don.t like it.
Nope.
Below 25 years old it's coolish, any older, trying too hard.
great blazer !
Personally I think the way he's wearing his boots - makes him look 'heavier' than he is ...
It shortens his legs...:-/
not really a big fan of boots, one thing I have always been curious about, doesn't it shorten the legs proportion with jeans tucked into boots?
The boots really make that outfit.
This look is all over Vancouver; there's something about mixing work and professional attire that seems to beckon "look at how hard I tried to appear casual, and I succeed brilliantly every time."
All those boots need are a few spots of mud.
This is the way to do causal without looking bad. LOVE the boots and the dark blue blazer and jeans. so easy and such a good look.
reminds me of gianni agnelli
yes.
I am not a fan of the faux worn jeans but the rest is spot on.
the boots are a bit too much and out of proportion...it could be the angle of how the pic was taken, but it seems like his boots are way bigger than his head.
The boots add that ruggedness to the man's image. A nice balance of masculinity and style. Well done.
Cool! Good work!
the boots are wearing him and it should be the other way around, duh.
I really think this obsession with boots is seriously misplaced. They ruin any outfit.
I know this guy... he is what you would call the "real deal." He wears those boots almost everyday. Truly a man who makes the clothes, he doesn't seem to try very hard and he doesn't need to. He is effortlessly beautiful, well put together, and as a person is a complete gentleman to, um, boot!
I'm amazed that so many people commented on this one.
Handsome guy. Could wear anything. I love him from the knees up. Love the boots, just don't dig the pant-tucked-in look. To me it's trying way too hard to be cool.
I agree with dan from Richmond - I think this man is owning this look. I think it's a great personal take on construction-smart-casual.
love it. love the boots. and the "suit"
and he looks like a hybrid of heath ledger and thom yorke.
I'm guessing that it's about 50 degrees out, it's NOT raining and he's standing on asphalt. Why is he wearing work/hiking boots? There are plenty of great looking boots for urban environments. Wearing these just for the fashion statement is...stupid. Perhaps he's waiting for a cab to take him to the Catskills.
Looks like Chris Martin!
The boots are ironworker boots and they're sold at workwear stores around the country (eg: Mark's Work Warehouse). They're made by a company called Dakota, but J.B. Goodhue and Gorilla make/made similar pairs years ago. They retail for about $130 Canadian.
I so need a pair of boots! Nice pic, as always...
Why not... he looks very manly.
Be cool to see him in the pants sans jacket. Maybe with a bulky sweater. Looks like he could pull it off nicely. That said, he's looking pretty fine as is.
very nice look, I normally don't like the blazers jeans combo but it works with the beard n boots...
now if he had some nice raw denim..
I'd be sold 110%
Sorry, don't like the look at all.
I can't say this does anything for me one way or the other. never got the whole redwing thing. I would feel odd walking out of the house wearing that outfit.
I hope I wind up with a man like this.
The boots make the fit... dope
Is he married? Does he want to be??
SNORE!!!
at first i didn't like it, but then i imagined him walking around, and i could see how it works a lot better. anyway...i like the boots, and my husband was just looking at a pair similar to these in a j.crew catalog last night.
He's totally workin it, but I doubt it would work on many other people. You'd have to be tall, broadshouldered, handsome, and daring!
I like how the pinstripes of the blazer are echoed in the wash of his jeans (look closely). Love the boots. Not sure they're quite right with the blazer ... but the ensemble's perfect because it allows his attitude to be the make-it or break-it factor. Way to go!!
chic & badass
i dig
that's a tough one to pull off if you've got short legs...
Excellent photo !!
Wonder if he's lived in Minnesota for any period of time, the kids there have been doing the whole boot thing for a couple years now. Very manly/sexy.
I've been wearing brown leather harness suits with my suit on casual Fridays for years. Definitely the way to go :)
i heart it. he's such an urban gentleman. -Jacinda

The Urban Gentleman
The jeans are not faux-distressed. They have been worn in from the raw state, and are probably APC New Standards. The "dirty" fade is typical of APCs.
The shot is amazing. Love the aggressively urban setting with the rural-chic ensemble. Stylish, yet masculine. always a good combination.
Tartanscot in SF.
I commented already, but it struck me that wearing work boots like this was all the rage in the early '80s in Canada. Greb was the brand, and they were tan with salmon-coloured soles.
Good look.
I love this look, but frankly I think he would look great in anything. Excellent grooming job, as said in previous comments, lenght of beard and haircut perfectly matched. Love the boots and jeans, but personally I would have picked a less formal jacket, like a fishbone tweed, instead of this pinstripe.
What I think pulls the whole look together... His coloring (skin tone and red facial hair) matches the boot.
The field of blue broken up by the hand in pocket makes the shot.
And I don't think the jeans are tucked in so much as they are rolled up because the are skinny jeans that would not fit over top of the boots.
I love the contrast of the 'real' wear in the boots and the 'fake ' wear on the denims.
Better not rip the crotch if he decides to get rugged !
Truth is beauty...
Hey check out this guys my space. He's a singer!!

This is a Montreal influence in fashion - where boots are a necessity this time of year. You see fantastically dressed people rocking big winter boots.
simply perfect. memories of Heath.
BEAUTIFUL LOOK.
Ooooh yes, yes yes. I do like!
I like the cut of his beard.
does this guy realize how great he looks? abfab
yum yum yum
His FACE! He just stopped NYC traffic with that face.
Great look even or maybe especially the boots EXCEPT, the boots should be a bit more presentable, to have the hear worn off like that just looks exceptionally sloppy and the boots should be in overall better condition maybe polished a tad AND laced up with the pants over the boot.
JCrew has an exclusive Red Wing boot to effect this look perfectly
