The latter is the term for pants which are skin-tight naturally they are worn with spurs. And finally, he appears to be wearing trousers not overalls.

The silver and gold waist sash should have the “tassels” worn on the left side. On his right breast he wears the General Service Medal, it is incorrect to wear it on the right breast, not the left. I suspect it is one of HM The Queen’s Jubilee Medals. There is another medal in the grouping but not quite clear. He is also wearing two medals, either that of a Member of the Most Distinguished Service Order (DSO) or that of an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (Military) (MBE). Might I draw your attention to Eggsy’s uniform? It is meant to be that of a general in the British Army, judging by the gold embellishments on the red collar gorgets and the width of the epaulettes. Also from Fort Belvedere are my socks which are in dark gray with a burgundy and white clock pattern to provide a bit of visual interest as well as to harmonize with the tie and the grey scale elements elsewhere throughout my outfit.Īnother really perceptive and elegant piece of writing.

The pin dot tie in burgundy red jacquard silk which is from Fort Belvedere is a bit more Galahad-inspired and I’ve got it tied in a larger knot today to accommodate the wider spread of the collar. It consists mainly of a white shirt and black cardigan sweater and the shirt has a semi-spread collar and regular barrel cuffs to fit more easily under the sleeves of the sweater. Of course, you’ve seen Raphael in what would be considered a more standard issue Kingsman suit before in navy with white pinstripes, but I’ve gone for something a bit more casual – mostly inspired by the Merlin character. In today’s video, I’m wearing an outfit somewhat inspired by a few of the different Kingsman characters. Just remember that their menswear advice shouldn’t be followed as strictly as the mission briefing of a super spy.

Overall, if the Kingsman films serve as an entry point into the world of classic menswear for young men, action film fans, or anyone else, we see this as a good thing.
