You don’t mess with the man in black. What an imposing figure he makes in his all-black attire, which he has so magnificently framed with highly polished black shoes and a black fedora pork pie. And although an earphone is not uncommon, on this man it adds an extra layer of mystery. He said this outfit is not particularly special for him. I wish his “normal” defined normal for more men on Vancouver’s streets. Fantastic.
The Man in the Black Pork Pie (not Fedora)

Actually, the hat is a pork pie.
I actually researched fedora before writing it because I thought a pork pie had a flatter top. From the angle of the photo, I can see now that the top must in fact be flat. Thanks for the correction!
That’s my dad. And that outfit qualifies as ‘casual attire’. Really snazzy picture though, I’m saving a copy of it.
Thanks for your comment! If this is casual, I would love to see formal… I’m wondering if the adage “like father like son” applies in this case?
