Gents,

On November 18, 2012 we published our first article about Opening Doors and since thenopening doors screen shot we have not only continued to write about Style, Grooming & Life but we also turned men’s publications right side up. We just celebrated our 1 year anniversary of The Avenue Men’s Magazine that contains no BS, no FLUFF!

Our websites first year produced alot of attention and we received a little over 1.2 million hits and this past year we increased to 1.5 million! It appears that individuals from all over the world enjoy our articles, features, reviews and FREE digital magazine.

We also enjoy writing about events, people and companies from all over the world.

We remain committed to being the best damn resource for men who seek authentic tradition and distinction. Being a gentle-man has nothing to do with ancestry or economic class but will always be rooted in the choices you make in life.

We are launching many projects in 2015 and look forward to a bright future of kicking ass and not even bothering to write their names! Stay tuned for the first ever modern history book about, The Revival Of The Traditional Barber Shop and the first ever Traditional Barber Journal.

How To Look And Be Tip-Top Pt. II: Tip of Your Shoes

Posted on by

Gents,
Continuing our discussion about the life philosophy of Tip-Top, we begin to discuss theAE boots particular elements of those things that are within your control. As we previously said, the basis for being and looking Tip-Top (How To Look and Be Tip-Top) is style, grooming and life. With the framework of looking good from the Tip of your shoes to the Top of your head, we begin at the Tip of your shoes.

I have written several articles about shoes in the past (Allen Edmonds Broadstreet, Shoes Are Essential) and strongly believe that they are one of the most powerful essentials to style that can speak volumes without ever saying a word.

The process for choosing the best shoe for the right occasion can be bewildering to some but there are a few rules of thumb that can eliminate faux pas. Rule #1, let the occasion highly influence your choice of shoe. A formal or informal occasions may require you to up the ante and select a classic/elegant or tennis shoe. Rule #2, make an impression with your shoes and let the shoes speak for themselves. Although, making an impression with your shoes cannot be the overriding factor. Going to a picnic in wingtips and trying to play volleyball in nike shoethem may not be the best choice. Rule #3, know your style and clothing because you may not be able to pull off the desired look. Not everyone can rock penny loafers or Harley boots and a pair of 501’s so be cognizant of what your personal style.

More importantly, know who and what you are before you venture out to the wild blue yonder. The best impression you can make is that which comes natural to you. No shoe, hair style, or article of clothing can ever substitute for the type of person you truly are and that will either attract or repel others.

Starting from the bottom, Tip of your shoes, and working our way to the Top will help you not only understand your style but also portray it effectively to others. Regardless of your choice of shoes remain passionate and confident in who and what you are and only then can you achieve a state of being Tip-Top.
