Trusted and recommended products
Here is a directory of stores and companies I personally use for my clothing, grooming, and fragrance needs. If you make a purchase using some of the links below, I may receive a commission.
Clothes
If I were to name one favorite clothing store, it would be Brooks Brothers.
Most of my dress shirts and many of my sports coats and ties are from this historic retailer.
I particularly enjoy their button-down collar shirts.
For my build (6ft 2, 180lbs) I buy the slimmest fit available in a 16/35 and get my tailor to add darts.
I am also an avid customer of Suit Supply and Spier and Mackay.
Suit Supply has a great selection of fabrics and rotating styles that I highly recommend to most of my personal styling clients. Please note, their suits and jackets are typically cut in a more unstructured, Italian-inspired way.
Spier and Mackay is a fantastic affordable option given the quality of their fabrics and construction.Their styles are more traditional. I buy most of my pants from there.
For affordable neckties, I like to shop at The Tie Bar. However, I warn you that their silk pocket squares are cut too small and will slip down in your pocket.
When it comes to shoes, most of my dress shoes and all of my sneakers are from Thursday Boot Co.
They offer outstanding value-for-money with Goodyear welted, 100% leather shoes that are ethically made.
Tiege Hanley are the only skincare products I use
Fragrance
I first began wearing fragrance at eight years old (as you do) and I continue to love using colognes and parfums as a way to express my personal style.
Right now, I am wearing these three fragrances from Mission Fragrances.
It’s Antonio Centeno’s company, and because I love these scents so much, he has hooked my fans up with a great deal to get $200 off the set of three fragrances
Besides these, Creed Aventus is another favorite of mine that I wear regularly.
Day-to-day, you cannot deny the old-fashioned masculinity of Old Spice. At less than $20 a bottle, give it a try.

Grooming/personal care
Skincare is vitally important for men, but it can seem very complicated and overwhelming.
That’s why I trust and exclusively use Tiege Hanley products. In particular, I recommend their Level 1 system, which provides all the products you need on a monthly subscription basis.
Achieving the right hairstyle is a huge part of my personal aesthetic, and I have experimented with many different products and styling methods.
Sauvecito oil-based pomade is the only product I currently use. I find it achieves a fantastically dapper, authentic, retro look without getting overly greasy.
Most of the time, I just style my hair while it’s damp out of the shower with a Wahl comb, but I’m not opposed to using a blow dryer. When I do, its the Laifen Swift I reach for.
Speaking of Laifen, their Wave toothbrush is by far the greatest toothbrush I have ever used.
Since I began using it, I have received compliments from my friends and family on how bright my teeth look, despite not using any whitening products.
