anyone who wears a sportcoat with an untucked button down deserves Mussolini's fate.

The model doesn't even know how to start the Vespa - his hand is not on the brake. Would not take any tips (fashion or scooting) from him.

In fairness there COULD be no-show loafer socks being worn. That's still acceptable in warm climates (like me in Vegas this week).

Why would a man, especially on a Vespa, wearing a sports coat with an untucked shirt, be constrained by the sheer tyranny of socks?

Socks be damned I say!

Homer, I don't think you should wear a short-sleeved shirt with a tie.

Ooooh, but Sipowicz does it.

If Detective Sipowicz jumped off a cliff, would you do that too?

Ohhhhh, I wish I was Sipowicz.

Fashion and riding skills aside, I have several Untuckit shirts and they are well made and quite comfortable. They have a limited number of Brick and Mortar stores (primarily online sellers), but if there is one near you I encourage folks to check them out.

Shoes without socks is something with limited appeal for me. At the beach works for me.

I would! I'd follow Andy anywhere.
