If living is truly the process of dying, then it must have been entirely clear from the get-go that Nice Try, Bro would eventually die, or at the very least evolve into something else (shouts to all the Hindus out there).  As many of you already know, I have been laboriously working on putting together a new business venture over the greater part of last year.  That being said, if any of y’all paid attention to your third grade English teachers and mastered your context clues, it should be readily apparent that I am writing this to announce the birth of that very venture.  So, without further ado, please welcome Carson Street Clothiers into your lives.

Carson Street Clothiers will open spring 2013 at 63 Crosby Street (just below the southern corner of Spring Street) in SoHo.  The space will be 2000+ square feet of pure menswear goodness, and it’s Internet counterpart will feature a full-blown, dope as dope sauce e-shop.  We’ll dabble in the editorial world, too.

As a third party multi-brand retailer, CSC intends to plug the gap that currently exists between classic menswear tailoring and streetwear.  Around 20% of CSC’s product will be its own private label which will include shirting, trousers, ties, squares and blazers.  We will also be offering made-to-measure suiting and provide in-house tailoring.  Yada yada yada #menswear.

Nice Try, Bro will continue to live on in some respect, but as what…that much I haven’t yet figured out.  In the meantime, public apologies to the families of those caught up in my shit: it was never my intention to go hard on NTB maliciously.  I hope you realized that, in many ways, the blog was self-defacating in nature, and that a good part of it was educational, too.

Until we open, please follow our progress on:

• Tumblr
• Twitter
• Instagram
• Facebook

It will be like #menswear reality TV but on the Internet.  I hope your head didn’t explode.

Best regards,

NTB

That bow tie would give Bruce Bowen a hard-on the size of Rhode Island.  Fucking thing looks like a helicopter propeller.  Apologies for being pedantic—I realize there’s a shit ton of “what in God’s name?!” is going on here—but this just makes me want to throw up.

This is about as flattering as Philadelphia commissioning a statue of Rocky Balboa being knocked out by a no-name lightweight amateur.  Oh, Paris.

Forever 21 Elbow Patch Striped Sweater $20.90

You think that sweater is too big?  NAH SON: that model is a member of a rare super-species of Hominidae that can stretch his torso into any shape he desires.  The bacon-neck shirt that’s two sizes two big?  Don’t ask, I have no idea what the fuck is going on there.

Livin’ the dream.

If you ever wondered what Jay and Jack from The Knottery actually look like, they’re really just a couple of dorks.  But seriously, big up to The Knottery—really good people chasing their dreams and having fun while doing it.
