2. Winter/Spring Layering
Leave it to a Caribbean native in NYC to pair a tank top with a wool overcoat.
Unexpected combinations like this are a hallmark of Keino’s style. On paper, it usually wouldn’t work, but he confidently and comfortable pulls-it-off.
I really like the neckline here, and it’s much more functional than you might think given the unpredictable weather this time of year.
Again, the finishing touches are on point and the accessories pull everything together – the hat, bag, necklace, belt, bracelet socks…

This guy is baller.
Although its not my personal style, I like how he owns it. I think what makes it work is nothing is to perfect. So although he is clearly trying to look good, he isn’t trying TOO hard.
I agree I’m not a fan of the shoes in look 1 and 3 BUT the whole outfit elevates them. His style its seems is the sum of its parts as opposed to the individual items.
Saw this dude in a street style article in VIBE magazine back in 2006. I knew there was something special about him. All you Keino.
Can’t really get into this guy’s choice of combination (besides look 1) but he does get his point across of “owning your look”. Those super-pointy, low-top cowboy boot-looking oxfords need to go though.. I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks that.
Ugly shoes.
Dan- where is the nighttime look(s)? From the TSB teaser…
I think I saw a homeless guy on the F train wearing look 2 yesterday.
I’m loving the colour combo in look 2, but I can’t get over how costumey look 3 is.
Cool looks but garbage shoes.
I like some of the looks but the dude always looks pissed off when looking at the camera.
Cool guy. I like these outfits. I’d never wear them, but they do look good on him, and that’s what style is all about.
Love this post, make your own, I think we should all out some if ours in every outfit we wear, it makes you stand out.
“Self proclaimed” ladies man – hahaha. Did he see the copy before it went to press?
Great, great post. In my books, one can “pull off anything” as long as it looks good. Too many times I see people trying to pull off edgy looks and end up looking sloppy, dorky or just plain silly.
This guy has done a fine job of adding some unorthodox (tank with a wool coat??) elements in a way that is appealing to the eye.
Worth the wait. Dayum.
He should tilt that last hat though (can’t believe I’m saying this, like telling Picasso to change a couple strokes lol).
Nah – dude looks like a cowboy at high noon in that last set. A cowboy at high noon wears his hat like he shoots – straight.
Joe- agree to disagree. I prefer a Sinatra approach to a cowboy’s.
Ha – But what if Sinatra played a cowboy? Oh wait, there’s google right there… so even as a cowboy Sinatra went on tilt. Whadayaknow. While I tilt a fedora, I like the straight approach of a wide(r) brim in the last set. Different strokes I suppose. Then I will agree with you to agree to disagree.
