We had a return visit with Kyle Wilkinson, CEO of Urbanbloke.com, the fashion-savvy, guy-friendly flash sale site for guys clothing, accessories and gear. We asked him to chat about gifts for father's day and he brought his son, Alex, who is interning (across all divisions of Urbanbloke) for the summer and learning what it takes to work the crossroads where the web, flash sales and fashion meet-- for men!

What we got was an interesting and diverse conversation about what's hot and happening in the world of Urbanbloke.com and it's truly a conversation that's as reflective of the two men as it is of the site and people behind it. What's interesting is that this isn't so upscale a fashion site as to run most regular guys out of town.
I have shopped it and been very pleasantly surprised at the diversity of the brands as well as the quality (which is terrific) and the price breaks ( 20-80% off). I purchased a Ben Sherman checked shirt and a Morphine Generation tee and with shipping, didn't break $60!! So this is serious bargain shopping -- with limited quanities and an equally limited time frame.

Great ideas for Father's Day include

TOSCANO Silk Print Shirts in an curated array of colors and prints for an amazing price of $45!! You can't buy a pima cotton shirt for $45 and with a brand like Toscano, this is great fashion that's perfectly suited for summer events-- even if it's just hanging around watching the tennis channel.

Also from TOSCANO Cotton and Linen Shirts an amazing array of solids, stripes and plaids are perfect for day to night, business to casual and definitely
