We wanted to jump on to wish everyone a Happy Holiday season. Producer Peter is officially a dad and we thought what better time to wrap up this season than now! I want to thank you all for listening to a show about clothes, during a time where wearing pants have been optional.
This show celebrates style and the people who take the time to dress with intention. If it wasn’t for your downloads each and every week we wouldn’t be able to do what we do. We hope to see you back here in the new year but until then stay safe and stay stylish. Thank you!

Today I chat with Shawn McKenzie (@ShawnMcKenzie89), host and reporter at Sportsnet. Based in Toronto, Shawn is often globetrotting following the Toronto Maple Leafs to various cities covering the sights at sounds rink side.
I believe Shawn is one of the most stylish guys around the NHL community. His TV outfits are often the talk of social media as people often comment on his bold coloured suits, large peak lapels, and his slim silhouette. There is a method to his madness and today I get the privilege to take a behind-the-scenes look.
Today on the show Shawn and I chat about the Leafs new dress code, what he thinks about when putting together an outfit for TV, and how the game of hockey should start embracing fashion.

You can often find Peter in American-made denim on the job site. But with that said, he is no stranger to a suit. Just one look at his Instagram page and you can find him in various Italian-made tailoring looking like he’s on the streets of Florence. What I admire most about Peter is his utilitarian approach to menswear and how he actively invests in quality garments that serve a purpose.
Today on the show I chat with Peter about his initial interest in style, Dressing for the occasion, and camping in California. Please enjoy this wide-ranging conversation about clothes and why they matter.

Jesse is an OG. His work predates social media, and he was creating digital stories for the internet before the term content creator became a widely recognized job. You can arguably say that the Put This On blog spawned the #Menswear movement.
Today on the show I chat with Jesse about what initially intrigued him about menswear, the culture of clothes, and why he started Put This On.

This week’s episode will be a little different. I’ve had a couple of you direct message me on Instagram asking how and why I started the Mr. Cavaliere menswear brand. So I thought what better way to answer this than to go into the archive and pull out a conversation I had with Andrew Coelho (@mrandrewcoelho)
Andrew is the host of the Andrew Coelho Show and the designer behind Monte & Co. Andrew interviews some of the most exciting and inspiring fashionprenuers in the industry and I was lucky enough to be one of them. Please note, that this was recorded back in July of 2020 as I was fresh off the official launch of the brand, so some of the strategies I mention have changed but my mindset has stayed the same.

For the month of August, we will be taking some time to recharge, refresh, and refuel before we resume in September for season two of the show. On top of that I will be designing the Mr. Cavaliere Fall/Winter 2021 Lookbook collection and need some time to explore cloth and put my designer hat on. One question that we have asked every single one of our guests thus far is what will men's style look like in a post-Covid world. The answer is is up in the air and the debates have been interesting to say the least. My hope is that we all get to enjoy the clothes we love with the people we care about as soon as possible.

That said 32 episodes in and we’ve learnt about what works and doesn’t work and how to bring a much better experience to you the listener. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store. so until then enjoy your summer and I will see you in September.
