My kids are back in school, despite surging Covid cases. We have no other choice.
Here we go again. Again. Another winter, another Covid surge. Like clockwork, parents, their kids, and the teachers we rely on are all back where we were in spring 2020, fall 2020, winter 2020, and fall 2021: screwed. Instead of making plans, our leaders—from the White House on down to school districts—decided the best course of action is simply to lay down on the tracks. Stay cozy and stylish all day, every day. Skip that pricey monthly membership and DIY your home set up. "How We Dress Now" is something of an experiment. At nine editions of Esquire around the globe, we set out this fall to discover if, far from the realm of the fashion runway and the celebrity stylist, real men, living in diverse places, have what it takes to reflect and develop their personal style in the clothes they wear. The answer, we found, is a resounding yes! Here, we celebrate men of all ages and backgrounds, men who use their own clothes to project a unique sense of self, injecting personality and authenticity into every stitch. One thing is clear: personal style takes time and passion, but it's worth it. But first, the 25-year-old has to get over some pretty particular guilt regarding the end of Dexter: New Blood. The narrative construction is impressive enough; the fact that it's matched by a similar musical progression is downright masterful. Almost immediately after meeting Bob Saget, he starts introducing me as his son. We're both tall. We both have dark hair. The age difference seems about right. It's plausible. It's the third week of March, and we're in a crowded VIP area of Austin's Brazos Hall. The South by Southwest showcase Saget is headlining, a benefit for the Ally Coalition, is about to begin downstairs. His wit is quick, and everything, even our similar height and hair color, is ripe for at least a cheap one-liner. "I have nine compartments in my brain, and four of them don't stop," the 59-year-old will later tell me over the phone from his home in Los Angeles. Right now, though, all nine seem to be engaged. |
