What is Valet?

Valet is an independent, long-form, print-only publication dedicated to classic menswear and timeless style.

We champion film photography and essays that take unexpected and esoteric approaches to menswear, tailoring, and style  and, in the spirit of whimsy, publish articles tangentially or not at all related to clothing, just because we like them  in order to inspire men to dress and think entirely and unapologetically for themselves.

  • Savile Row legend Bob Bigg

    For this issue, we got quite pissed with the legendary Bob Bigg and convinced him to make our editor-in-chief a beautiful double-breasted suit in vintage cloth and cut in a style absolutely in line with Bob’s unfettered specifications, modern trends be damed!

  • A Mystery

    In this noir-ish photo-story, we investigate the greatest mystery of our age, viz. why so much beauty in modern times has been let to go to ruin. Who are the perpetrators, why are they still at large, and does there exist in the world a form of appropriate justice or not?

  • The Clothes of the Dead

    We at Valet celebrate not only those who clothe themselves in a way that doesn’t make God's world hideous, but also those actually real people whose character is as refined as their dress sense. Witness one such gentleman-specimen, the ever-stylish Michal Martychowiec.

Valet’s conception

The man who values eternal style over ephemeral fashion has little refuge in today’s landscape, but the world is renewing, the plot is thickening, and the sartorial game is afoot.

A new cohort of men has appeared. We are of different ages and political sensibilities, live in far-flung countries, and lead very different lives. United by our passion for quality clothing, we need a quality publication that reflects our lives.

So we created Valet.

What you’re in for

Every issue of Valet is intended to be a beautiful object to be kept and collected, as uncompromising about its appearance as it is about the elements of style that it describes and the language it employs.

We celebrate timeless style through our passion for written and visual expression, and our editorial objective is to publish content that shuns the ephemeral and focuses on the eternal.

Articles are detailed historical, sociological, theological, literary, and poetic works. We have no truck with news or gossip. Valet does not age or expire.

It is in shape and matter what it is in purpose: truly timeless, as is any real sophistication or style.
