• A mens style of dress that strikes a balance between casual and dressy and is decidedly classic, understated and non-trendy. It usually includes some combination of the following:

    a tweed, [houndstooth] or camelhair jacket; a long raincoat worn over one of the former

    a [chunky wool] sweater, preferably made in the british isles

    a wool turtleneck

    plaid slacks, corduroy pants, jeans

    dress shoes or boots

    Can be complimented by glasses and/or a restrained jewfro. One does not need to be a professor to embrace this style, and it is usually more effective in garnering compliments if worn by someone who is not a professor. The look is an homage to Donald [Sutherlands] style in many of his 70s film roles including Klute and Dont Look Back.
