Does GQ do pro bono work?

Marketing by Association

This man had an expensive, leather laptop brief bag and was headed into a meeting in a very upscale office building today. I can only hope it was a construction meeting, though I’m not certain that should be a good excuse for the dopey hat.

I have always been fascinated by the fact that hats used to be a stylish accessory of the male wardrobe and somehow got reduced to this. Granted, it is a steep learning curve of about sixteen years to master the proper alignment of this style of hat (novices are often seen with them facing backwards). Even so, I don’t think mastering such an achievement gives way to ignoring social graces.

Ya gotta wonder where we’re headed sometimes…

  1. Good point! All you have to do is watch the movie Seabiscut to see the decline in civil male head gear. I like how you manage to “look down” on this guy in your drawing.

  2. Hi Lindsay,
    Thanks for the comment! Seabiscuit was by far the best movie I’ve seen in ages. Thanks for reminding me of it :-)
