'The Extra Man: A Novel' by Jonathan AmesMeet Louis Ives: well groomed, romantic, and as captivating as an F. Scott Fitzgerald hero. Only this hero has a penchant for ladies clothes, and he's lost his teaching post at Princeton's Pretty Brook Day School after an unfortunate incident involving a colleague's brassiere.

Meet Louis Ives: well-groomed, romantic, and as captivating as an F. Scott Fitzgerald hero.

Only this hero has a penchant for ladies clothes, and he's lost his teaching post at Princeton's Pretty Brook Day School after an unfortunate incident involving a colleague's brassiere.

Meet Henry Harrison: former actor, failed but brilliant playwright, and a well-seasoned escort for New York City's women of means.

He dances alone to Ethel Merman records, second-acts operas, and performs his scrappy life with the dignity befitting a self-styled man of the world.

What can this ageless Don Quixote of the Upper East Side have to offer a young gentleman such as Louis?

What, indeed.Well, the answer lies somewhere between the needs of an irascible mentor and the education of his eager apprentice...between cocktails on the Upper East Side and an even more intoxicating treat along the secret fringes of Times Square...and between friendship and longing.

Great dressy sneaker to wear with business casual or jeans
Size: 11, Color: British Tan/Ivry
I got these for my husband to wear with jeans or business casual dress pants. They look sharp and professional and dress up jeans if you're going out. He says they fit comfortably and he can walk on them all day without his feet hurting. They are beautiful genuine leather so they don't get stinky. I got my husband's normal size and they fit to size.

Comfortable
Size: 9, Color: Black/Ivory
Most comfortable and roomy shoes I ever wore. Great for insoles. Looks nice too. The base of the shoe is a bit too thick but it’s fine.

Great Western Cowboy Vest for Costume Use
I bought the Men's Western Cowboy Vest with fringe as part of a Halloween costume, and it was perfect for what I needed! The style and details really added to the look and gave my costume an authentic vibe. At 6'3", I found it a little on the short side, but it still worked fine for my purposes. Since I bought it just for a one-time wear, I can’t really comment on the quality or durability for regular use, but for a costume piece, it absolutely served its purpose. If you’re looking for a stylish, western-themed vest for a costume or occasional event, this is a solid, budget-friendly choice!

Color bleed
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
Nice vest but it ruined my white shirt. Color bleed and little black balls all over the place
