The Style of the Double Breasted suit originated under the influences of the naval world as the Pea coat. Later the style evolved in America as the “Reefer” jacket in the late 19th century. It was an outerwear jacket worn to sporting events and outdoor events. The Duke of Windsor, a stylish trendsetter of the 1930s adapted it as a leading staple within his wardrobe and supported the style’s rise to a more formal business setting, where it was earlier rejected by the business culture. The DB style is associated with power and luxury, that was adapted by banker and mobster alike.
After a time the style became dated, but in later years has become a distinguishing look to its wearer. When a DB is worn today, it communicates exclusivity, refined tastes and, a sense of stylish fortitude.
Igee frequently visits this look and perfectly executes his vision to present the versatility of the classic vintage style to his modern audience. With a bold and formal color selection that explores the possibilities of what this double-breasted suit is capable of in the right hands.

“I started following blogs at a very early age. I want to say maybe the 10th grade of high school? I was always inspired my men who were pace-setting in the community at the time who took the liberty to express styles that traditional media wasn’t exactly showcasing at the time. I remember people like Adam Gallagher, Denny Balmaceda, Steven Onoja and a few others. To me, it was really impressive because men’s style wasn’t too celebrated at the time. That instilled a want to share to my own perspective about something I seemed to have developed an interest in, so I started to contribute articles to lifestyle media outlets.”
“I knew I wanted to create my own thing, but I was lacking confidence. Thankfully, I eventually did due to my mom forcing me. She hated me working for other people, so she offered to pay for my website in the first year with a week’s deadline to put up content. Praise mom!”
“Any event where I’m allowed the opportunity to dress up, meet nice people, and authentically be myself, I am a fan of. I tend to gravitate towards dinners, dance parties, and performance shows.”
