Who We Are
Off the Cuff (OTC) is an award-winning menswear consultancy and online resource. We are dedicated to the principle that classic style and modern life are not only compatible but made for each other.
Chris Hogan founded OTC in 2006 and from the start was dedicated to providing readers with thoughtful, objective, and informative advice on incorporating classic menswear and timeless style into their modern lives. OTC also supports and profiles exceptional brands and craftsman, both here in the United States and around the world.
In 2012, OTC was selected as a top menswear blog by Complex.com. Hogan was voted 2012′s Brooks Brothers’ Dandiest at the Derby. In 2010, OTC was profiled in Professional Blogging For Dummies by Susan Getgood, founder of Blog With Integrity. In a two-page spread, OTC was highlighted as a leading web resource and an example of exceptional social media strategy, brand development and brand management.
In addition to curating OTC, Hogan manages social media and blogger outreach for legendary menswear authority Alan Flusser’s innovative BeSpeak iPhone application. You can learn more about BeSpeak on our OTC+BeSpeak page.
About our logo: OTC’s suit logo was created just for us by our favorite Canadian artist Samara Shuter, known as “Sammo.” Based on one of her most iconic images, OTC’s logo expresses the timeless style of classic menswear while also giving a solid nod to living in the modern world. Sammo’s work continues to receive critical acclaim and we are honored to call her a friend.

I’ve gone ahead and bookmarked http://offthecuffdc.com/about at Digg.com so my friends can see it too. I simply used About | Off the Cuff as the entry title in my Digg.com bookmark, as I figured if it is good enough for you to title your blog post that, then you probably would like to see it bookmarked the same way.“
I’m impressed, I must say. Really hardly ever do I encounter a weblog that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you could have hit the nail on the head. Your concept is excellent; the problem is something that not sufficient individuals are talking intelligently about. I am very joyful that I stumbled throughout this in my seek for one thing referring to this.
Thanks for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbor were just preparing to do a little research about this. We got a grab a book from our local library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I’m very glad to see such excellent information being shared freely out there.
Wow… it’s rare to come across a blog which lays out their policies so clearly. Beautiful work. Kudos!
Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just
curious if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any support is very much appreciated.
I visit everyday some sites and sites to read articles, however this web site offers quality based articles.
Thank you for sharing your info. I truly appreciate your efforts and I am waiting
for your next post thanks once again.
It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d most certainly donate to this superb blog! I guess for now i’ll
settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account.
I look forward to fresh updates and will talk about this blog
with my Facebook group. Talk soon!
