"Suspended Animation" - the Fly Spy

A Bathing WHAT? WHO's Unit? You must be smoking green bananas to think those guys were first simians of fashion. Not by a long stretch dude. But how Magilla Gorilla (or "the Thrilla" as the ladies called him) differs from those guys is not only was he the first doing it,
he did it up dapper.
Bow tie
...check.
Suspenders
...check.
Wingtips
...check. Pocket scarf...check.
Bowler
(aka Derby) hat and Walking cane...double check.
There's humans I know that don't dress this fly...Seriously.
Sadly though, M. Illa became one of those cats unrecognized by the fashion "gate keepers." And the name associated with his species somehow took a turn for the worst. To bad too, he could swing with the best of them.

"A Good Wing Man"- the Fly Spy

Once and awhile I like to get my
"Savion Glover"
on, and rock a nice pair of shoes ("corn huggers" in my case lol), with my favorite denims, and throw on a
"Keith Sweat-ish" blazer to complete my grown man look.
Recently, when I decided to put on the "click clacks" my recommended choice of footwear are the never-go-wrong Wingtips. Made famous by the Stacy Adams brand, these classics are just that...Classic! I always feel that every man should have two good pairs of shoes in his wardrobe (a black pair and one brown), and one GREAT pair of these. After you purchase a pair, be sure to stop by the local cobbler to accessorize 'em with some taps (the rubber one man, unless you REALLY tap dance) to extend the heel life. When someone asks "Got any good tips lately?" You can now point to your shoes.
