Fight The Heat
IS IT HOT IN HERE OR IS IT JUST ME? What do I wear when it’s hot? I still want to be a “dandy” even when it’s hot. I tend to comprise when its 90 degrees (or 32 for you Celsius fans) out there. So to keep it dapper, we can forgo the tie and showy socks…

Dollar Shave Club x Dandy In The Bronx
Dollar Shave Club. You may have heard of them from that viral video of theirs way back when. They are also known for their $1 a month blades. I used to pay for really expensive blades, the $20-$30 a set kind. I tried an electric razor but the shaves weren’t close enough. So when I…

Dandy In The Bronx x Ledbury
