Comments on "On the Street....Spring St., New York City"
Are those Doc Marten's..? Haven't seen those in years.
what's with the trousers? why is everybody wearing trousers that are too short?
my my ...
must have cold ankles this time of year
I love the combination of bare ankles and gloves
I love this look generally, but I still cannot get used to the short, rolled up pant look on guys. I have to admit that I never got on board with the Thom Browne thing.
Shades of Mad Magazine!
I love the short trousers and no socks look ;) a slight detail that makes a bold yet refined statement
@ dollar bill: they're folded..
Tim, I was thinking the SAME thing.
However, I like his 20's/50's hybrid look-- it's got nerdy polish. Also, his one button + multiple pocket coat makes a complex statement. I like it.
what's it with all the haters... rolled up pants are awesome. and doc martens have been around for ages now
Love it. The fit of the jacket, the two pockets, the colour … Plus the slim cropped trousers of course. Very well done.
nice shoes and skin colour
this photo perfectly helps me define the difference between following trends and being a slave of them.
Short slim-fit trousers, no socks and old style school are still huge, but the whole trend just looks wrong when the weather is cold and you're wearing a coat and gloves
The lack of socks and inclusion of gloves throws me off. For me, it should be the other way around.
isn't it some kind of contradiction to wear gloves and not wearing socks?
Not digging the sockless look for winter.
I like it - the Stand out Jacket and then black gloves & shoes. Going sockless is cool too. As long as he looks comfortable, that's all that counts.
i love the shape of this coat and the asymmetrical pockets.

Handsome face, sexy gloves... and the rest is plain ugly fashion that turned a cool guy into a fashion victim.
i don't mind the short pants...but wear are the socks???? everyone is going out in the chill with no socks on !!!!
I've never been a fan of the high "trousers" but the jacket is cool
I want that whole emsemble for myself...
Love every aspect and detail of this look - GR8 shot Sart!
I think he looks fantastic.
I love this photo and I love the way the black and gray outfit stands out against the colored background.
The shoes are pure class, but I don't think they look great without socks. They look a bit disproportioned on this slender man and I think a pair of gray socks or a pair of slightly longer trousers would avoid the "kid in dad's shoes" impression.
Beautiful coat too. Is that tweed?
BTW, love the man too!
those aren't doc marten's. they're a plain toe oxford with a leather sole- could be by anyone though my faves are probably alden. love the coat. love the shoes. love the bag. the pants? absolutely not!
Tim, I had the same feeling...nice look, very J.S, though...
Best
I LIKE IT!
All good except he does look like he's rushed out the house and forgot an essential garment for this time of year, and I dont mean a scarf.
I Like IT!, seems Madrid

amazing work in terms of proportions.
Too feminine looking for my taste. I like the Doc Martins but not the rolled up pants.
anybody know who made the jacket? i feel like a vibrant pair of socks could have made the same statement, and kept his ankles warm.
Nice socks, nice shoes, great man
OK, I could wear that. With some higher heels. NIce color on th jacket.
Looks like a guy in a woman's outfit...
It's not the ankles making him look cold: he looks frail because of the shoulder cut. Square the shoulders and heavy up the leather on the gloves.
I like the individual pieces but as a whole I find it rather costume like. Especially in this season.
The shoe-pant combo also make his feet look huge.
I would do anything to catch you in action! love this pic!

It is the lack of socks which makes this outfit
love the cuffed pants and that coat is very nice!

I call it a war-time school boy look for grown ups...
I am really seeing the effects of the recession in a widespread boycotting of socks
jacket Helmut Lang? at a guess
It may be true that it is too cold to wear rolled up pants but he still made the look very clean and nice.

I needed a couple ofminutes to take it in, but now I really like this look. The photo is a little strange though: looks like the guy is levitating. Wait - he is levitating!
Hair - yes
Jacket - yes
Shoes - yes
Pants - no
Bag - no
perfect down to the very last detail.
i really like...i really like
Very effinate, but that's his choice. At least he looks well-groomed in it.
a pair of men's dress nylons would have really pushed the dandy pov and made sense...he does have on gloves and a coat so I'm guessing it's chilly.
Love the jacket and shoes, but not so much the short trousers.
Handsom young man.
love it I would wear it all
I have to agree with the poster above...the whole look is extremely feminine...
Nice fittings.
The trousers are short. I hope there is no flood.
:)
not into the coat or lack of socks.
torn, on one hand I love the overall look because it's very fresh and simple. On another note the man looks a bit too feminine.
Great capture!
his ankles must be freezing
Cute. The rolled up trews work but it's a little odd to wear gloves and yet no socks. Bit nippy round the ankles! LOL
Cute. The rolled up trews work for me. I do find it odd that he's got gloves on yet no socks. A bit nippy round the ankles! LOL
what!? the trousers are PERFECT. in fact, the same outfit with some chic boots would have been impeccable.
nice purse
It looks like he was levitating

I love the coat, the unique color and three pockets make it special. I like everything else too, he just needs socks. I don't mind that the look is feminine.

I agree: very effeminate, but that's his choice. Personally not a fan of this look.
I mean this as a compliment: he sort of reminds me of a male Audrey Hepburn. He uses similar rules of simplicity and great cut for a very chic effect. I like this a lot.
I love the coat, however, this is something distracting with the absence of socks.

What about the "Man Bag"
It just pushes over the edge for me.
Very androgynous. Now who makes this jacket and where can I get it?
How can you confuse Doc Marten's with chunky oxfords? (I guess I just answered my own question...)
You don't have to be a Thom Browne follower to wear short, slim pants and show off your socks (or lack thereof, in this case): Stylish people have been doing just that as early as 1963, the English mods in particular, but also loads of European and American film stars of the 1960s.
I don't understand people who think this look is too effeminate. What's so effeminate about it? It's not like he's wearing make up or a skirt. Gloves but no socks is a contradiction, though -- even a bit unsettling. I agree: some old-fashioned brogues with a nice pair of socks would have been nicer.
Still, impeccable look with a beautiful coat. Wouldn't mind seeing this much more often on guys than all the acid-wash jeans, chunky Nikes and, in particular, those awful low-cut v-neck fluorescent t-shirts.
Pee wee Herman lives
He looks like he is floating above the sidewalk. I love the one button and the three pockets. Flawless.
He looks too calculated and safe, this look is 'done'.
He's a mamine (man+gamine) with a nice murse.
Are men's ankles that attractive?! It's gone too far, this sockless rolled-up lack, literally:-)
the coat is prada, the shoes are definitely church's..
i like mr bean...
this is a perfect look in my opinion; the proportions, colors and textures are spot-on. I love the rolled cuffs on a slim pant; i like the peek of ankle. great detailing on the jacket. He looks very sharp and still youthful. I especially like that his style seems to suit his personality so fully.
well done, Sart!
for me he is the only guy i have seen that actually makes the Thom Browne thing look good (and not awkward). Maybe it is the length of the pants or his slim ankles and not-overly-exaggerated/chunky shoes.
The pants seem to be of a nice cotton, too, which i like. i also like the coat, the cuts seems a bit mod. i am sorry but for some reason i love the pants, the dark black in that fabric - wonder if they have a bit of stretch in them...
the jacket (apart from the quirky pockets) looks like something my grandmother would wear around the house. ugh.
looks like a hit man
I love his coat.
Just a totally great look with a touch of quirkiness to add interest and individuality. Love the shoes with no socks in this case--socks would have cut the look up too much. If he's cold he can turn down his trousers--ok!
I realise, watching this photo, that I realy like to see man's ankles !
Rose.
Young man needs to spread some jam on his shoes and invite his trousers down for tea :)
there's a bit of mr. bean about him
no socks in those shoes in cold weather can only mean cold, clammy, sweaty feet.
I want his shoes!

I don’t like how his pants & shoes look together… weird, almost cartoon-ish proportions. I like the rest of the outfit though.
I think it's cute. He reminds me of a little boy who's shoes are a bit too big, in an endearing kind of way....
You have some great pictures on your blog! This style reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffany's - just that it's not a girl but a guy (it is, isn't it???) ;)
Spot on dude, you nailed it. This was the look that was on all the runways two winters ago - down to the frail, skinny and pale look. Reminds me a lot of Dries van Noten. As cold as his ankles may be, it is absolutely necessary to go sockless so that the proportion of boxy on top works with skinny and shortened at the bottom. Perfect.

I love the fact that he dares to wear no socks in cold weather. I'm considering removing mine this very minute. I'll have to wait though until the gentleman in the next cubicle takes his cigarette break.
When will men stop wearing skinny jeans which make their feet look huge??? The rolled up cuff only makes it all worse.
they are NOT doc martins. docs are not shiny and the soles are not that thin.
So Mia Farrow.
Am I the only one who see's Audrey Hepburn in this picture?
The jacket looks like vintage Balenciaga or Raf Simons for Jil Sander. I personally don't care for the look, it's a little too American in Paris.
That coat is freaking awesome.
did Anonymous take his socks off??
I wonder where he got his bag! :o
I want his shoes to be sleeker, with a long and low vamp. I also want them to be another color, grey. Man are grey leather oxford style shoes hard to find. Because the pants are so slim and rolled the shoes need to be as slim as possible. Some squishier loafer thing would have been nice, perhaps in suede. This is surely the most subtle cross dressing I may ever see.
@ Francesca - I'd do anything to catch YOU in action.
This is AMAZING! THis is MY style!

I feel like this is something I should be wearing. Not him. Too girly.
He looks AMAZING! Well done sir!
The confusion about the shoes is astonishing. Since there is only about ten diffent classic types of shoes you should easily identify them as bluchers (not oxfords, not Doc Martens). It's probably cordovan leather. The Haircut ist Doc Marten which may have boosted the confusion about the shoes.
Like the hair and the shoes.
those look more like classic military issue shoes to me
Haha the ticker pocket on the jacket intrigues me!
The shoes are great, the only good thing about all this.
Why the ambiguity? (sorry for incorrect spelling)
