MAN 1924 @ PITTI UOMO - EASY GOING

Jorge Navares & Carlos Castillo

"Easy Going" that's what Jorge said to me, when I asked him if it was okay to take some pictures of the SS 2014 collection of MAN 1924.

MAN 1924 is a Spanish brand with many years of experience in the textile industry dating back to the early 1920s. For the last 20 years Carlos Castillo has dedicated himself to conveying the idea that MAN 1924 is more than just a brand. It is a way of life. Supported by sister Olga Castillo and his nephew Jorge Navares, yes it's all in the family.

The collection is characterised by having classic and sober style; suits, sport jackets, shirts, ties, scarves etc. All based on their own design and creation. The popped collar is a true handwriting of the brand.

DRESSED TO UNPRESSED

Exactly 1 year ago The Sartorialist posted this picture of Carlos Castillo owner of Man 1924.

For me this is still a great picture, nothing in this look is pressed or neat, but together it's a sprezzatura all the way!! 

"MAN 1924" FOR THE MAN OF 2012

Carlos Castillo, the man behind MAN 1924, creates a look which is beyond preppy, not as slick, let's call it City Smart or Classic With A Twist. His signature are the popped collar shirts which you see on all the pics. MAN 1924 has 2 stores in Spain, (Bilbao and Madrid), called one of the favorite stores by The Sartorialist.
