You can look good with rolled-up suit sleeves. Don Knox did not do them in completely during the Miami Vice era. But when you do them, do them like so.
Sincerely,

Gentlemen, if you’re doing more than four of the things shown above, you are remarkable indeed.

Tip Our Hats: Guys Who Wear Argyle Socks, by Anna Goldfarb
“The argyle sock is a a bold fashion choice with immense payoff potential.
If done well, it can transform an average guy from ho-hum to hot stud… there is something about the kind of guy who wears argyle socks that makes us sit up and take notice.
He probably:
- has a library card
- can enjoy movies with subtitles in them
- has neat penmanship
- smells clean like the woods.
- calls their grandmother at least once a week just to say hi.
- can sew a button onto a shirt, if need be
- returns calls in a timely manner
- had a zine in high school and/or a blog now
- has created at least one piece of artwork on his bedroom walls
- knows how to drive stick shift cars
- never kisses and tells
- will make you dinner on your third date
- wears v-neck sweaters
- listens to rap music while he does housework
- appreciates a good scotch
- has a cool brother
- has smoked a cigar and/or a pipe at some point
- owns a shoe shine kit
- likes British sit-coms
For all of you argyle sock wearers, we tip our hats to you. Just so you know, you are basically wearing foot lingerie.”
ED’s NOTE: These are, for the record, 100% true.
