After years of avoiding wide fit trousers to negate the unfortunate connotations of my past collecting period menswear, I’ve finally come to terms that it is something I enjoy and is a big part of my style.
Apart from being something intentional and different than dressing to fit in, I also find it comfortable and flattering! Plus, wide fit pants are in- haven’t you been looking at alt tiktok?
The next episode of our podcast is all about shorts! We talk about our favorite variations and how we like to wear them. Obviously we like wearing full pants, but that doesn’t mean shorts can’t look cool.

#TheSaDCast has it’s first guest on in a couple of years and it’s none other than Yung Chomksy, the producer of the TrueAnon Podcast and a fellow menswear enthusiast.
The First Part is where he talks about his menswear journey, how it aligns with his (and our) leftist politics, and how people of his political cohort (especially on twitter) view his attire. The Second Part focuses much more on politics, drilling down on the aesthetics of political movements, decontextualizing menswear, and reconciling our hobby with progressivism.
It’s probably the best episode of Style & Direction so far!
Happy Birthday to me! It’s okay if you didn’t get me anything, since I actually have something to give to you: a deep dive into what I’ve worn when celebrating my annual trip around the sun.
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.
You can also enjoy the plethora of inspiration images (which is probably the real reason you’re here…)
It’s time to talk about the vintage style in one of my favorite movies of all time: Back to the Future.
This is it, our big AMA episode! We answer your questions like how we dress in hot weather, if vintage style will ever die, and what the heck do we have as our phone lock screens!
Today also marks the launch of our Patreon and Discord! There are some big things coming in the future.
J. Crew has filed for bankruptcy. While that doesn’t mean the store is going away for good, it inspired us to have a full discussion on the Brand! We trace its history from it’s early catalogue/RL wanna-be days to its status as the mainstream’s voice for #menswear, Americana, and heritage.
Even though we don’t always buy from it (especially as our tastes have changed), it still holds a place in our hearts. Perhaps this is a sign for how mainstream menswear/mall brands will fare in the future..
In today’s pod, Spencer and Ethan discuss the lifestyle of menswear enthusiasts, it’s perceived elitism, and how we stack up to it!
Thanks to quarantine I feel myself regressing to movies I’ve watched in my youth. And one stands out as one of the first films to catch my eye for fashion: a Sherlock Holmes adaptation that actually makes a strong case for late Victorian-fashion.
Don’t forget to listen to the podcast and follow along!
a little bit of rest
