FALL FASHION TIPS: OLD SALT DOG



There is no one tougher than an old salt dog fisherman. My family comes from the S
eafood Crabbing Industry and these individuals working the lines and nets have been and will continue to be a major
inspiration on myself and my 
designs.

The clothes they wear are as true
and transparent as they are.
 So let me break it down for you.





THE LOOK:
1. BEANIE - Big w/ thick front band. 
                   -  Blue/Grey/Orange/Grey Color and no visible logos.
                   -  Cheap Cotton Fabric, yes cheap.
2. PUFF VEST - Not to bulky. Solid Color. Simple Design
3. CHECKERED FLANNEL - No fancy designs or complex hues. Basic colors and patterns.
4. HAIR - Long scraggly salt wash look.
5. Beard - If you don't have the beard you don't have the look. Untamed

* Hugh Simms Tie: No way keep it at home for this one!
