Description: A guide for those who want to be impeccably stylish, this book presents iconic men's clothing and those who wear it, as well as leading brands and manufacturers. For any man, appearing timeless and laid back at once is a challenge. Who makes the best shoes? What styles suit me? Who makes the best white T-shirt and could I wear one with raw denim jeans to an important presentation? Where can I buy suits that are actually worth the money? Which pattern, which fabric, and which cut? Harris tweed or waxed coat? Leather vest of functional outdoor parka? Sweatshirt or V-neck and, if so, cashmere, merino, or wool? From Tip to Toe answers all of these questions and many more. There are countless manufacturers and products, but only a few brands are serious about what they do. Quality shops can provide an overview of what is currently available, but this book is a fundamental guide to the pieces that ought to accompany a man throughout his life.
