When we last brought you some stylish folks worth an Instagram follow, we ran the gamut from streetwear heads, bloggers, and street style photographers. Now, we understand what you're looking for out there may be a something little bit more... focused.
Sometimes you don't just want photos, you want a little bit more editing and thought behind what goes into your feed, something that comes from people that are pretty entrenched in social media and the little niche cultures it's wrought upon the Internet. So fire up those apps (and welcome, Android users!), we dug through our own feed to bring you 15 Menswear Personalities To Follow On Instagram.
