Choosy Beggars

Hustling down Varick Street on Friday, we caught Hunter here taking a smoke break on that particularly mild winter day. What caught our eye -- and what we hope this image captures -- is his effortlessly smooth style and refined-yet-whimsical proportioning. But, apart from his blue YSL pocket square, what we found most intriguing about Hunter's clothes were their humble origins. The jacket? "Club Monaco, and ten years old." But it fits! The shoes (which from one angle we actually mistook for Common Projects laceless oxfords)? "Aldo. Yeah, I know, Aldo." And, the hat? Nice Collective, and stolen from a friend the night before.

  3. Sorry, Anon, didn't catch the maker of the jeans... choosy beggars is still very much a work in progress.
