With his distinctive salt and peppered beard and penchant for the finest clothes around, one would expect that the identity of The Snob Report's owner (handle: @thesnobreport ) would have been discovered by now. For certain all his tailor's must know him via his measurements and the fact that he would have to have a relationship with them all. I myself ought to know who he is because we have most likely sold him directly the black majestic bow tie by Le Noeud Papillon that he wears in this photo, but after searching my own customer records I could not definitively tell you who he is.
In an age where every man and child is holding a mobile phone, intrigue and mystery is a very rarefied commodity. Most of us can find out what Hollywood starlets had for lunch just by looking at photos of them stepping out of Bentley coupes. Which is all the more reason that I respect and enjoy the fact that The Snob Report remains one of the more elusive characters that remain unspoilt on the internet, the other being the enigmatic style writer Sartor, who previously wrote free content for the forums StyleForum and Cutter & Tailor. To this day I still have not confirmed his identity either. Perhaps they are both the same character? Wouldn't that be a hoot.
