Snappy Dresser, very nice.

Do you suppose he buys off the rack?

His father was a tailor. He's been wearing bespoke clothing since childhood.

I especially like the way he wears fedoras with the brim turned down in the back as well as the front. I've seen photos of Robert Redford with hats styled that way also. Very European looking.
