I’m very pleased and proud to announce that THESELVEDGEYARD will now be a regular VINTAGE feature in GQ Italy.  TSY debuted in the March 2010 issue, selecting 10 timeless, real men of style– and we look forward to a long and prosperous partnership filled with lots of authentic goodness.

So friends– please brush-up on your Italian and follow along.

Ciao,

JP

    Va Bene-so incredible and well deserved.

      Thank Eli.

      I know I’m NOT the swiftest deer in the forest, or the sharpest knife in the drawer~ just lucky a few other people enjoy the TSY vibe. There’s a lid for every pot, a wise man once said. This has been a cool ride~ and I’ve had the pleasure of meeting some great people through TSY, and reconnect with some cool folks from the past, like you. If the ride ever starts to suck~ I’m jumping off and starting over!

    motorcycles-that’s what all these ‘made in rebel icons’ really have in common-

    heroes need motorcycles-more than motorcycles need heroes-p.j.o.f.

    Way to go Brother! Best thing to happen to GQ since a Jennifer Anniston cover. Maybe even better. Now let’s get GQ US on board with TSY! Congrats!

    • March 8, 2010 9:41 pm

      Jimmy~

      Thanks, brother. Hope all is well, and I feel like such a schmuck that we have yet to get together since you moved out to the East Coast. We have to fix that soon. I take responsibility for it~ no more excuses.

    Congratulations! Would you post here those italian features? Would they be avaiable in the online edition of GQ?

    It can be a good opportunity to check how much italian I remember after some travels to that country.

    • March 9, 2010 9:26 am

      Thanks, Padawan.

      I’m sure we’ll do some complementary English commentary and a few add’l pics here on the site.

    I have been following your blog for a while now and love your spot on commentary, and in many cases history lessons, at least for me. This is well deserved and I am glad that more people will be exposed to your wonderful writing.

    I have been following this amazing blog for the past two months now and tried to e-mail you (to no avail) when I happened upon an msn.com link to an Esquire article last week chronicling the 50 or 75 most stylish men of all time. It was as if they had been following your blog since day one, so at the very least now GQ Italy can give credit where credit is due.

    Thanks for all of the masterful articles and pics, especially all things Texas (re: Waylon, Willie, Buddy, Kris, Roky, Carroll, Longhorn BR), and keep up the good work. I know that you won’t disappoint.

    • March 10, 2010 9:07 am

      Jimmy Smits???

      My email is listed under the “about” page, so sorry I haven’t rcv’d your emails, man. Thank you very much for the props, I am very excited to be working with GQ Italia.

      The Lone Star state is my 2nd home, and I too love all things Texas!

      Thanks for the support!

      Best,

    Here’s hoping for a Newman nod.

    In bocca al lupo, it couldn’t be more deserved

    • March 10, 2010 9:02 am

      Mason,

      Newman definitely had incredible style that was recognized the world over. He, among many others, deserves a nod.

      JP

  27. March 10, 2010 7:47 am

    This is amazing man. You deserve it! Sorry that you missed the show. let me know the next time you’re in the city and lets grab a bite to catch up!

    • March 10, 2010 8:50 am

    Here’s wishing you even more success!
