About: Hello, my name is Marc and I’m addicted to Gear Patrol. I started my subscription because I wanted to win free stuff, and I did. After that, I found myself checking the website everyday then finally two or three times a day while I was at work… that’s when I knew I had a problem. Not caring that I would get an email alert about new posts, I had to read the witty humor and learn about the latest gadgets before anybody else. When Gear Patrol said they where hiring, I felt compelled to apply. A month later, here I am confessing my addiction and introducing myself as the newest member of the Gear Patrol team.
So, who is Marc? Well, I’m a financial analyst and originally from Virginia, having moved to Manhattan about 8 years ago for college. After college I got a job at a major financial services firm and haven’t looked back. A year ago I moved to (gasp) New Jersey. But, before you dismiss me as bridge and tunnel trash, there are a couple of benefits to the Garden State. One, rent is more managable. Two, I have a car and therefore a way to get out of the city and do the things I like to do.
What occupies my time? You can see from my first post that I surf, having picked it up late last summer and surfed until the cold simply made it unbearable. When I’m not surfing you’ll find me hiking every chance I get. Otherwise, I’m on either one of of two vehicles: riding my bike out on 10-20 miles rides or my ‘07 Mini Cooper S named beaster (love that car).
Eric asked me what my dream gear would be and I had to say it would be Allison Stokke um… I mean a Ferrari Enzo. Cliche? Perhaps. Incredible (on either account)? Undoubtedly.
Anyway, hope you enjoy what I’m bringing to the table and encourage you to help feed my addiction by sharing posts, commenting and subscribing.

So you’ve supplemented your summer wardrobe with a linen shirt and a good pair of flip flops. And I’m sure you already have a pair of shorts, but I bet you haven’t thought about formal ware. Yes, formal ware. I’m talking seersucker. Whether you summer in Cape Cod, the Outer Banks, or So-Cal your summer wardrobe isn’t complete until you have a seersucker suit.
As fabrics go, seersucker is the perfect for summer. Usually made from cotton, seersucker feels light and breathable. More so than any tropical weight wool suit I’ve ever owned. I think we all know that you couldn’t survive a day in the tropics in one of these.
For your seersucker needs checkout your J.Crew or go to www.jcrew.com. Memorial Day is less than a week away. Is your wardrobe ready?
What this means to you: You can leave the t-shirt, cargo shorts, and flip flops at home next time you go to a clam bake, regatta, horse race, etc…
Cost: $198 @ J.Crew

They are also good for arguments in front of a Southern court.
Also, I think it might be “formal wear” and not “formal ware.”
