Today we're talking about sneakers on the pod! It's a subject that like shorts, can be a bit touchy for hardcore classic menswear guys who prefer to wear more formal pieces. However, as you will soon discover, sneakers are cool! Spencer & Ethan discuss the different vibes of sneakers in classic menswear, what their favorites are, and what they wear them with.

Here's a sneak peek of our Patron exclusive bonus episode! Full episode available to our Patrons (as well as our Discord). The subject is Connery's fifth (but not final) Bond flick: You Only Live Twice. It's a fun movie that is Ethan's favorite, despite not having very much menswear. We still talk about the outfits we do see, as well as some snippets about the film, it's score, and Bond in general.

Ethan preaches the gospel of the Button-Pocket Harmony, a detail he loves where the final button on the jacket is on nearly the same horizontal plane as the pocket. It's something that has guided his purchases since he started buying menswear! The boys talk about why its an important detail, not just for visual proportions, but because it's good to have standards when buying. In the latter half, Ethan and Spencer talk about other dealbreakers that prevent them from buying everything they see.

In this episode, Ethan and Spencer talk about shorts! It's a garment that menswear guys tend to avoid (since pants are more interesting), but with the right mindset, you can definitely embrace shorts in classic menswear. We start it by talking about the different styles of shorts there are and finish with how we like to wear them! They certainly are appropriate for anything we wear from workwear to ivy.

It's here- the Second Part of our interview and discussion with Yung Chomsky, the producer of the TrueAnon podcast and an ardent menswear enthusiast. This time we drill down on a few heavy topics like the Aesthetics of a Left Movement, Reclaiming/Decontextualizing Classic Menswear, and of course, Ethical Consumption under Capitalism. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did; it was really important for me to share these beliefs with you guys!

Woah, #TheSaDCast has it's first guest on in a couple of years! It's none other than our pal Yung Chomksy, the producer of the TrueAnon Podcast and a fellow menswear enthusiast. We brought him on to talk about his own menswear journey, how it aligns with his (and our) leftist politics, and how people of his political cohort (especially on twitter) view his attire. And that's only PART ONE of our discussion. Keep your ears open for the second part, which will cover deeper topics about the politics, leftism, and menswear intersect and affect us on a daily basis.

Military surplus is a fun way to add some spice to your wardrobe, and Spencer and I have been doing it for a while now! We discuss the appeal of Milsurp, our favorite pieces, and where we suggest you get them, all in this much-anticipated episode. Workwear is closely related, so maybe we'll have to do one on that too....

If you're reading this, then you're not a patron of our Patreon. But don't worry; here's a sneak peak of that exclusive bonus episode which focuses on the menswear in Back To The Future! It's one of our favorite films that actually has some great vintage style that isn't too costume-y. There's a lot to learn from this film other than you know, not messing with the space-time continuum. Regular mainline pods will still be every two weeks, so we're back to regular programming next week!

I remember a time when we used to avoid any connotations to the 1970s. Now we love incorporating their vibes, whether it's by this decades elegant, sexy take on tailoring to the rugged mix-and-match approach to casual wear. We talk all about the late 1960s-1970s in this new pod and don't worry; it's as subversive as you think it is. But if you're anything like us, you'l to learn to appreciate it and even take some inspiration from the era into your own personal style!
