A Collected Style Feature:

Alex Maier of SuperDanger

I had a great time this past weekend in Chicago meeting and hanging out with Alex. He’s truly a remarkable and talented guy who is an inspiration to many. Even though we only chilled for a few hours I learned a lot from what he had to say, especially the tips and advice he had on me improving my photography and blogging. It was fun shooting him as well  and I hope we can hang again. 

Alex, what Inspires you, your blog and style ?

“More than anything i love people.

I love interesting people.

Finding great people and learning what makes them tick.

What drives them, what moves them to make decisions.

What inspires them to create.

My blog is kind of like fishing, like casting a net to reel in amazing people to my social circle and foster relationships with them.

Hopefully become friends with them, and even work with them.

My style, like everyone’s, is always changing.

As of right now I’m trying to minimize everything.

i have too many shirts, and too many pants.

Ideally here are my outfits for the next 5 years.

Casual: leather jacket or waxed jacket, white tee shirt, denim, white sneakers.

Not casual: blue flannel blazer, higher rise  single pleat gray slacks with leather braces, white shirt, loafers.

Everyday would be a variation of those basic outfits with the exception of winter. Which would be all black.”

Anonymous asked: Why did you leave Haberdash?

it was time to move on. 

i hold no ill-will against them and wish them success.

i appreciate the opportunity they gave me as well.

i was getting worried that i wasn’t taking enough chances.

that i wasn’t pursuing things that i believe in.

before marriage.

before kids.

before a mortage, car payments, child payments, netflix payments, burrito payments.

i’m not getting any younger.

as i’m sure you can tell.

regards,

alex
