He is wearing extremely classic clothing and riding a very modern bike. I like it a lot.

The man is dressed well and riding the eco-friendliest solution. :D

The charm is in the details. The robin’s egg socks peeking out and look how they magically match the bicycle. Are you born with it or is it taught?

What a nice cycling outfit, and it really compliments the man. Also I love the socks… it seems as if socks are the newest trend eh? :)
this too will pass

I’m loving how the socks match the bike! Awesome bag, too.
Still, what really draws me into the picture – and I’m guessing caught your eye, Sart – is his whole demeanor. Leaning casually backwards (onto a bicycle, no less), naturally folded arms, unfussy collar, and of course the perfectly placed cap atop that expression.

Socks and bike to match, excellent. I hope he doesn’t ride with the bag so precariously balanced. He’s going for a more smart than tech look, I find the balance hard, good clothes aren’t usually fast clothes. And he probably knows it’s not going to rain!

now this is really excellent …… not only has this chap matched his sock colour with his bicycle the pattern matches the x shape of the frame ……. even his beard seems to have a silver- blue tinge but i’m possibly getting slightly carried away …….

i like his style, especially the hat and the socks.
just the bike doesn´t fit in or matches his style.
i´d like to see him on a bike like this http://www.utopia-fahrrad.de/PDF/London.pdf or an real old one.

He reminds me a bit of Sean Connery. Not at bad thing at all.
Great cap!

not sure where the clothing style is in this shot. he’s an interesting specimen, that goes without saying. i have a feeling that any other guy with the same specs would have gone unnoticed. sock details are nice but i don’t think that this is what makes the picture interesting or different.

Ok, now I´ll have to start matching my whole outfit, including socks, with my bike. I´m glad my bike is black and classical. His shoes are just lovely.

Smart dresser, but how smart is he really? Rides a brand new bike around the city – that jank is going to get stolen.

I love the collar of his coat, just perfect

the socks are perfect! I love the way the colour matches the bike and the check has illustions to the spokes of the wheel.

Confidence in command of the street. Reminds me of Sean Connery. But would Connery wear those socks? With those shoes?

How is he wearing white pants and no strap to keep the pants on his right leg from flopping around? This should result in major chain grease on his white chinos.

I was in Florence last week too and am blown away at how well everyone dressed. It was my first time there but I went unprepared. :-(
Next time, I’ll bring a trunk full of chic clothes.
Love your Florence coverage.
Looking forward to your book.

The man dresses nicely. Your pictures are very inspiring. Being a young sartorialiste (is that how you say the female version?) your blog is very helpful. I have recently bought a new camera and can’t wait to take pictures

Wow – matching your socks to your bicycle? i think that has to be a man thing… I love the way his cap is so perfectly positioned.
Sart – sensing your interest in footwear – when you are in Rome visit Gammarelli and the other ecclesiastical outfitters in the Piazza della Minerva, not far from the Pantheon and treat yourself to some of those Bishop’s violet or Cardinal’s red silk socks!

SPEAKING ABOUT SOCKS… these do make an outfit, not the others. love it that they match the bike! sartorialist to the point of considering his bike an accesory.

I love how his socks match the color of the bike and how his facial hair matches his hat and how his bag matches nothing at all. His gaze matches mine–silver fox? :p

Ditto the socks/collar/cap and his overall demeanor.I like the fact that he’s wearing stone colored pants on a bike- not really such a problem unless your pants are wide, it’s a windy day or you’re in a race. It shows a confident disregard for obsessive practicality, which seems right for him..

The whole look is very distinguished. I also love the pants and the fact he is riding a bike without a chain guard. I love the shoes, very classic. The socks make the whole outfit.

What’s cool? The gray in his beard … the chinos … the collar up … the cap … the arms folded … the bag … the bike … the angle of his feet … his shiny shoes … his socks that match the bike. The gray and blue and white and brown. Keen!

What’s not to love? If I were riding my bicycle and saw him I just might pretend to have lost my lock and invite him for espresso if we could just lock our bikes together long enough to run into a shop.
