Why I love him
I dig his style: prep gone rugged, occasionally looking back.
He doesn't rub it in when he beats me in kayak races. (This Summer, Matt. You and me in Sunset Beach California for the re-match.)I dig his style: prep gone rugged, occasionally looking back.

Conversation On The Twentieth Century Pant Cuff
Sana : What trend are you loving this Spring? Tell me. It can be anything fashion related.
Matt : The roll-up pant cuff.
Matt : The roll-up pant cuff.
Sana: What makes it the favorite?
Matt: I can show off my man-hoisery. Look (points to his olive green trouser socks.)
Sana: (laughs) Seriously Matt, I knew I could count on you to come through on that question.
Matt: It's true. Women have their fancy stockings and what not. Men need a little bit of something too.

Now, friends, spill it. Will you sport the cuff this season?

I sported the cuff just yesterday! But, let's be clear, not nearly as well as Matt has here. LOVE his style and looking forward to his blog launch!
Warming up my iron now to get a good crease...
@unclebeefy yes, matt is rocking it. but i'm sure you wore the cuff well too.
@jack no starch! Just swagg.
I noticed last fall when I moved to Berlin that a lot of men and women were doing rolled cuffs, especially over ankle boots. I like to occasionally do it as well. And he's right, men should take pride and show off their socks.
Matt is one stylish dude! So I'll jump on board with whatever he says :) If rolled up cuffs are in, I'm rolling, baby!
@Christine Over the ankle boot - love that.
@Maddy Haha. You have me laughing. Isn't he?! :)
Prep gone rugged...I love it!
I love everything about his style, right down to his bicycle seat!
When his blog goes live, I will most definitely be following!!
I love it! I swore I was going to do the rolled cuff on a skinny jean with suede booties for fall. Alas..not so much. But with sandals for Spring..YES!
Um...how adorable IS Matt?! So stylin and any man that can say "man-hosiery" without qualm is a-ok in my book. Plus, the bag?! the bike?! the beard?! ( and I don't even LIKE beards so that is saying something) :)
So sharp, love this series! :)
