Yes, indeed. Me, too. Any tips on pulling this off, Mr. Mathis? Where do you obtain your flies?

Even if your photos are sometimes blurry :), you are an inspiration to me sartorially. I hope to visit your shop sometime (and sooner rather than later, since I live in the Green Bay area not all that far away).

At the risk of singling some folks out while failing to note others equally worthy, I must say that Charleston Bows and Alan C. are also inspirations.

Thank you Mr. Murtha for your kind words. I have a local guy tie my flies. When we deliver a custom suit or sport coat, we put one in the lapel hole. Two things to consider if you're thinking about wearing a fly in your lapel: 1/ Your lapel hole can't be completely cut open. Otherwise your fly will just fall out. 2/ Use a barbless hook. Or file down the barb. Good luck.
Oh, a belated welcome to the lounge good sir.

My stepfather visits the Minneapolis/St. Paul area a few times a year to visit his 'rents. I'll have to ask him to bring me on the next trip so I can visit Mr. Mathis' place. (And just the city in general.)
;)

C'mon up Jovan. It be a pleasure buddy.

Corduroy material has been around since (at least) the 1700's.

On point; it was made for, and exclusively worn by, the huntsmen of the King of France. The name 'corduroy' is an anglicised corruption of the french name for the 'king's cloth', or 'cord du roi' (literally, cloth of the king).

Now you have some ammunition for the Christmas parties... ;)

Todays outfit.

Today I decided to be a little more casual. I've been working tons lately (Hence baggy eyes), so it feels relaxing today without a tie. Thanks.

Hey Marty! That is one great look!!!

Thanks Spitfire. One day when I have an actual advertising budget, I'm going to hire you to model for us. Nobody does Ascots like you.
