Tonight’s dinner guest is the digital content creator and writer Matthew Spade, also known as his Instagram handle, Mat Buckets. Mat began his career writing on his blog Buckets and Spades, covering menswear and contemporary brands. His authenticity, aesthetic and good ol’ Northern unpretentiousness gained him an engaged community that has followed him over to social media, and allowed him to become a fully-fledged tastemaker and full-time content creator.

Interviewing him is Sam Diss, a menswear writer and freelance creative consultant.

Mat and Sam discuss why people still love the style in Seinfeld, the eternal quest for the perfect grey sweatshirt, Charlie Chaplin’s wide trousers, the considered casual fashion in Japan…and they debate what’s a front garden vs a patio.
