Video Sidewalk Style: Safari Season

By Alejandro Salinas ,   Sarah Zlotnick   Published Friday, August 28, 2009

Our more stylish half is on vacation, but the quest for fashion-savvy individuals continues. This week, we enlisted our intrepid intern/fashion nut, Sarah Zlotnick, and ventured out to the streets of Georgetown. There we spotted Treg Bradley, wearing a military-inspired linen garment complete with epaulets and boot-cut pants. The suit was designed by Bradley himself. “I consider it a safari suit from the ’70s,” he said. The inspiration? Vintage leisure outfits and “one of Bruce Lee’s movies from back in the day.” Obviously.

Bradley, who designs all his pants and shirts, is also the inventor of the Grobal, a self-watering pod for plants that resembles an egg. Check out our video below to find out what he wears to his executive meetings (Mao Zedong is involved) and what the hottest watch is right now.

Don’t misunderstand. I admire and applaud his individuality. But that doesn’t mean he’s still not a douche.

Come on give the guy a break --


So let him design and wear whatever it is he wants and respect the fact that he has the guts to do it.
It is not my style but so what --he likes it. Isn’t that what being an individual means? This herd mentality of conforming to what is acceptable in your very small worlds is ridiculous.
Have you been to NYC lately? Wow-- now there’s one place you can be whatever you want to be, wear whatever you want and no one judges you for being different. DC conformists get over yourselves.

I’d call him a bit eccentric maybe, but not a douchebag.

Didn’t there used to be a poll where we could vote whether or not this guy was a douchebag?
