Blamo‪!‬ Blamo! Media, Jeremy Kirkland

My guest this week is Nathaniel Asseraf, co-founder of Casatlantic.

Nathaniel and I discuss the legendary vintage store, Broadway & Sons, founding Casatlantic, Ralph Lauren University, vintage vs thrift, how to make a proper fit guide, seasons vs constants, and making clothes for a global audience. 

Since at least 2010, menswear writers have been predicting—perhaps secretly hoping for—the end of the slim-fit trend. But it wasn't until January 2016, when Raf Simons debuted his first collection after leaving his directorial role at Dior, that things started to change. Since then, big fits have cropped everywhere, from J. Crew's giant chinos to Jerry Lorenzo's Armani-sized tailoring. If you're just starting to dip your toes into these waters, Peter and Derek discuss how you can incorporate looser fits into your wardrobe.

The fit-god and industry legend is on Blamo!

As the co-founder of United Arrows in 1989, Kurino-san has been in front and behind the scenes of retail and men’s fashion for almost 50 years. He has seen countless changes and evolutions in the industry and remains as optimistic as ever.

Kurino-san and I discuss growing up studying iconography, his love of music, his approach to getting dressed (take notes), the stores that inspired United Arrows, what makes Japanese retail different, what books he’s reading, and more.

My guest this week is David Cho.

David is almost always one of the people behind what you love, from podcasts, journalism, and media he’s been an intricate part of THE INTERNET. It's kind of wild to think about, tbh.

David and I chat about media diets, getting introspective, why the internet is hungry for earnestness, his previous career at Grantland, The Awl, and his new project, Postcard.

WARNING – This may be the first and only menswear podcast episode on how to dress more like Mark Zuckerberg.

In what feels like one of the biggest PR turns in the last year, Zuck’s style improvement has generated considerable online chatter and even a recent New York Times profile.

Peter and Derek discuss how Zuck’s style has improved and—if you can believe it—what style lessons people can take away.

Has Mark Zuckerberg undergone a makeover?

Todd Snyder is back for the Three-peat!

Todd and I chat about his recent Pitti Uomo shows, what keeps him up at night, how to do a collab right, working with Sperry and being the return of big fits.
