After noticing a lack of blogs about the subject of vintage menswear and modern men into vintage fashion, I have decided to start a weekly series highlighting dapper vintage-loving chaps. I posted the first one today over at my blog: http://www.lettersfromhomefront.blogspot.ca/2012/10/dapper-chap-1-florian-kremers.html. If you (or someone you know) would like to be considered for inclusion in this feature, send me a message? Cheers!

Very nice (and good to see Florian wearing a jacket I sold to him!).

Very good! I do have a vintage blog but only in Finnish. Our association's (Fintage) blog does have an English part as well, though!

Florian was a good first addition, setting a high bar for us all

Yes, there aren't nearly enough vintage menswear blogs. That's one of the reasons I started my own. I know there are guys out there with excellent collections, and I hope in the future more chaps will start their own blogs …

Oh, thank you. I must say it feels a little awkward to be the "Dapper Chap #1"
I hope some more well dressed gentlemen will follow soon. Looking forward it :eusa_clap

I love the 'New Edwardian' look (bowler hat/four button jacket/morning suit trousers). Not many people attempt that look. It helps that Sproily is the right shape for that outfit.

Good egg!

Wonderful stuff, VB. I recently discovered Mr. Hagey via Instagram and I've been gobbling up his blog.

I'm nowhere near as Dapper as these Chaps, but I do find their sartorial independence quite inspiring!
