Isaia, one of the world’s last remaining Neapolitan sartorial brands, known for its beautiful tailored clothing, is launching a luxe new line of sneakers that bridge the gap between dress and sport. The sartorial sneakers take the classic wingtip brogue dress shoe and give it a dose of sporty sprezzatura. They will be available in a variety of fabrics combining luxurious leathers, suede, wools, and even water-resistant cashmere, in rich hues of navy, camel, chocolate brown and shades of grey, with a patterned wool option available as well. The sneakers can also be custom ordered with specific suiting fabrics from the firm’s made-to-measure tailoring program. All parts of the shoes are handmade, with the leather and fabric materials matched and dyed with all natural bee’s wax. The new line will be available this fall at select stores including Neiman Marcus with a suggested retail price of $425.
Call Duke H. at Neiman Marcus Beverly Hills (310-550-5900) or Todd F. at Neiman Marcus Minneapolis (612-339-2600) to reserve a pair today!!!

Zachary Prell Men’s Sport Shirts… Get yours now before summer is over!!
I finally have found the perfect sport shirts. They are designed by Zachary Prell, a contemporary sportswear brand based in New York City. Wear the collars open or buttoned, the shirts tucked in or un-tucked. These shirts always look terrific. So why are these sport shirts so great? What makes a Zachary Prell sport shirt different? Let me tell you… Everything!
Zachary Prell shirts have a special collar design. Whether you prefer a pointed collar, a spread collar, or a cutaway collar, a Zachary Prell collar is going to stand up nicely and retain its shape. It’s not going to be flimsy and slide under your sweater or look messy. As an added bonus - this sport shirt has room for collar stays. Collar stays keep your collar from curling. Stays keep your collar looking great! Each shirt comes with a set of Zachary Prell custom collar stays.
There will be no looking like you are stuck in the 70’s when you leave work in a Zachary Prell shirt and unbutton that top button. With the top chest button on a Zachary Prell shirt perfectly positioned, you will feel comfortable with it unbuttoned as you will not be showing too much “male cleavage”.
Zachary Prell sport shirts are slimmer and have longer sleeves. When I say slimmer I am not talking about painted on the skin tight, instead a slim/tailored look. The sleeves are long enough let the cuff peek under a blazer and yet not look too long when going solo (just the shirt).
The average cuff radius is increasing. These days, time pieces are getting bigger and bigger. (This is the segment of the post where if Rolex is reading, take notice… Only because I want the Milgauss 40mm, Steel with green sapphire crystal or the Yacht Master II 44mm in yellow gold) OK, back to the cuff… with watches getting larger, Zachary Prell has increased the cuff size so your Yacht Master II will have no problem sliding into its place under the cuff and still fit great!
It’s the end of the work day - you are ready to hit the town, just un-tuck your shirt. Zachary Prell has really thought about the length. His shirts hit mid-pocket, and function well worn tucked in or un-tucked, looking great for all occasions.
Summer is the season of the sport shirt and summer is in full swing. Capture the season in a Zachary Prell shirt. See and feel the difference! Zachary Prell can be found at high end retailers listed on www.zacharyprell.com . Fit and quality, coupled with amazing construction, Zachary Prell is here to stay!
Is a picture worth more or less than a thousand words if it’s Photoshopped? John Aravosis of AMERICAblog made an interesting find Monday night: A high-resolution image on BP’s website of the troubled company’s Houston-based Deepwater Horizon response command center had been altered. The altered image was later removed by BP and replaced with what they say is the original (the altered image is above and the original is below). You’ll notice that three underwater images were inserted onto screens to the right on a wall of video feeds in the altered image, where blank images exist on the screens in the original. The photo flap inspired the usually staid Washington Post to quip, “Apparently BP is no more adept at doctoring photos than it is at plugging deep-sea oil leaks.” BP spokesman Scott Dean told the Post’s Steven Mufson that there was no diabolical plot to photographically beef up the company’s command center. Rather, he said, a BP photographer with completely benign intentions just slipped the images in. “Normally we only use Photoshop for the typical purposes of color correction and cropping,” Dean told the paper. “In this case they copied and pasted three ROV screen images in the original photo over three screens that were not running video feeds at the time.” He added, “We’ve instructed our post-production team to refrain from doing this in the future.”
The only case that I will trust!!! I can’t wait for the camouflage case!!! Thanks Speck!!
