Why is it that when the weather gets warmer men forget everything they’ve learned about style. Shirts are left untucked, brogues are traded for dirty sneakers and lets not even mention sportcoats and blazers. Well, actually lets talk about that last one. If we haven’t emphasized enough blazers and sport coats are an essential part of any mans wardrobe. Having said we can only image that the reason men refuse to wear them in the summer is because they get too hot. To those men we offer you this great tutorial from Founder Melissa Austria who explains all the different options available, allowing you to stay stylish and cool all summer long.

 

One of Canada’s premium men’s blogs Freshly Educated Men recently featured us in their SS13 Style Guide.

Luigi Sardo is the latest addition to the Gotstyle family. Markus Lacaria (Founder) started Luigi Sardo in 2008 while living in Southport, Australia. Inspired by the beach culture and popularity of canvas shoes, Lacaria designed shoes that embodied the Australian lifestyle he adored. After years of preparation and hard work, Lacaria’s project came to fruition in mid-2011 with the release of the debut Luigi Sardo footwear collection, which showcased the Sardo Classic model. For SS13 we’re carrying the classic white canvas tennis shoe & the gray jersey Sardo Classic.
