Them's the Breaks: Pant Length
Okay guys, how long – as in length – should you wear your pants? It’s a puzzler for many. But you’ve come to the right place.When it comes to pant length, I truly believe the same two rules apply whether we’re talking about jeans, khakis or smarter dress trousers:Rule #1: Pants should never be worn too longRule #2: Pant should never be worn too short.It’s all about the break.

Mixing Coca-Cola and Absolut
No matter where in the world I travel – and I do my share – if I pick up a bottle of Coca-Cola, I know what I’m getting. It’s the same when I spot that familiar bottle of Absolut in a local market. There’s no mystery about what’s inside.I don’t typically mix Coke and Absolut, but in this case I will. These are two brands that are globally known, highly respected, and unfailingly consistent. And they’ve each reached this pinnacle by a relentless focus on the customer.

We're Surrounded. (And It's a Good Thing.)
If there’s anything I like less than moving, I can’t think of it right now. Oh, okay. War. Pestilence. Hunger. Stuff like that. But moving isn’t far behind. Even the obligatory moving cuisine of beer and pizza can’t make the badness go away.We’ve just wrapped up moving day at the home office of Levi Strauss & Co. Many of my colleagues and I had been holed up in temporary quarters – just across the way here at Levi’s Plaza – while workers fully renovated the main building.

I Love You, Mom.
If you “wear the pants,” you have to go beyond being a rough-and-tumble kind of guy. It’s not just about defending your honor or, for that matter, mowing the lawn. You also have to know when to show your softer, more chivalrous side.
