His hair. LOOK AT JACK’S HAIR. I ditched my friends early to backtrack and ask Jack for his photograph. The boots and the ‘do were what excited me the most. Jack, a NSCAD student, was an awesome guy to stop. When I asked to describe his style he didn’t even need to THINK about his response—classic American and workwear are two things that dominate his style. Bam. I’m sold. I totally dig his new-age Greased Lightnin’ kinda look. Awesome, right? His mother—WHO BY THE WAY IS THE CREATIVE DIRECTOR FOR JOE FRESH (!!!!!!!!)—has also served as a life long inspiration. No doubt Jack came outta the womb and into this world looking like a sweet million bucks.
