In case you slept on this last December: The Oral History of Menswear Blogging breaks down the nebulous world of the #menswear via commentary straight from the gentlemen and ladies who've made it what it is currently. Wherever you are with your menswear game; whether you're trying to decide between 19 or 21 cm Dior Homme mij's, or you don't understand why there are "grown men refusing to wash their pants" and running around in these boots, TOHOMB is informative and chuckle-eliciting.
"There are these guys in their 20s, straight guys in their 20s, who are very obsessive about their clothes. It's so fascinating to me because I never realized this group of guys existed, who follow designers and clothing like a lot of guys might follow baseball. And it's not an affront to their masculinity at all." -Michael Bastian
