I welcome the jazz guy summer, though I think it’d be pretty sick if more people were dressing like Sun Ra too

There’s a really rich history between jazz artists and The Andover Shop. Miles Davis was known to hang out there and give customers his unsolicited advice (the store still retains his order file), and Chet Baker used to crash on the owner’s couch whenever he was in Boston.

Is this just wishful thinking? Or do we think that Black Ivy is finally in the hands of enough men that they're going to actually start implementing the vision?

I do hope men pick up on this vibe more and more, and while I see people talking about it, it's small rumblings. I think "Jazz Guy Summer" is still a few hype cycles away, and that's if we're lucky.
