Combatant Gentleman Clothing

Combatant Gentleman Clothing

Combatant Gentleman is a relatively lesser-known online suit and shirtmaker, but that’s not stopping them from having a very awesome website (and ordering experience) with some nice selections to boot. They shot me over some samples in the mail, and as I have pretty unusual sizing, most of the clothing didn’t fit as well as it...
ICU Eyewear: Form Meets Function

ICU Eyewear: Form Meets Function

I’m a guy lucky enough to have 20/15 vision. I’ve never had any major issues in my life with vision (knock on wood). However, as I approach 30, and as I spend all day at work staring into a computer abyss, my eyes are slowly starting to show their age. I thought it might be...
The Finest Timepiece: Seiko Astron

The Finest Timepiece: Seiko Astron

This is a sponsored post. Seiko paid me to write this article for their #AstronElite campaign. However, I actually used and lived with this watch, and they let me come up with my own conclusions and opinions. I have to say all this mumbo jumbo for the lawyers and whatnot. Now that we got that...
New Balance 565: The Basic Trainer

New Balance 565: The Basic Trainer

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not a sneaker kind of guy–the bright colors, the ultra-casualness, the foamy soles–yeesh. However, there comes a time when a guy needs to worry more about comfort and support than whether those brogues go well with your horn rim glasses. The New Balance 565 series is what I...

Top Evening Wear Options for a Stylish Winter

This is a paid sponsored post by Politix. Nobody from Electrogent wrote this article. All content and imagery was specifically made (and is owned) by Politix. Your brain might be telling you that your big warm tracksuit pants, a beanie and your doona are the correct attire for a freezing winter night, but just because...
Chubbies Shorts: 'Mericas

Chubbies Shorts: ‘Mericas

I’d like to preface this review by pointing out that while the above photo might seem a bit too friendly, this is the tamest photo that Maria would allow. I even put on my America shirt for y’all–but it “doesn’t match,” she says. Pshhhh. America on America always matches. Regardless, I am pretty excited to...
Thomas Dean Dress Shirt Review and Giveaway

Thomas Dean Dress Shirt Review and Giveaway

Thomas Dean & Co has been one of those brands that I’ve seen around for a while in upscale retailers like Nordstrom, but I’ve never really been adventurous enough to venture into the collection. They recently reached out and sent over a couple shirts, which I gave a test run. Here’s how it went: The first...
Osmium Mobius Belt

Osmium Mobius Belt

If you don’t know what a Mobius strip (named after August Mobius) is, you should first check it out–it’s worth it. After your mind is sufficiently blown, bring it back in and focus on this Osmium Mobius Belt. Much like the strip, the belt is one solid band (although what belt isn’t?) that connects in...
Belts for Minimalists: Mission Belt Co.

Belts for Minimalists: Mission Belt Co.

Belts with holes are so 2013. While I’m by no means a fashion bellweather, Mission Belt Co. is pretty dang cool. Long story short, some folks got together and wanted to remake the idea of the belt. Their idea was to make a no-holed belt that uses a ratchet system, rather than a pin-in-the-hole system. The...
Peter Field Custom Ties: The Thornham

Peter Field Custom Ties: The Thornham

It seems like you can buy anything custom/tailored over the internet these days: suits, shirts, pants, shoes, and now…ties? Peter Field fills the gap in the market and lets you pick your tie width, neck, and length size with just a few easy measurements. They sent me a tie so I could feel the fabric and...
The Ankle-High: Rockport Castleton Desert Boots

The Ankle-High: Rockport Castleton Desert Boots

I’m a big fan of ankle-high boots of all forms, due largely in part to the fact that I’m 6’6” and a lot of my pants hit higher than they would on other shorter fellows out there, and I’m not cool enough to pull off the sockless-with-suit-and-low-tops nonsense that is going around. I can appreciate keeping...
Heavy Leather: Hydrogen-1 Sulfur Shoes

Heavy Leather: Hydrogen-1 Sulfur Shoes

Last year, I reviewed the Hydrogen-1 brogue lace-up boots, which were awesome then and remain awesome 10 months later. Those shoes’ brother model, the Sulfur, are a similar pair of shoes, but in low top as shown above. The Hydrogen-1 Sulfur shoes are also Italian made, and they also have the same trademark thick sole...
