Frequently asked questions
Herr von Welt was an online shop for fine men's accessories for many years. Today it is a magazine. Here is what that means for you.
Can I still buy the pieces shown here?
No. The online shop has been discontinued, there is no shopping cart and no way to order. Everything you see under The archive documents the former range and serves as a style reference, not as an offer.
Then why are the old product pages still online?
Because over the years they have grown into a fairly complete overview of the market: which patterns exist for suspenders, which blossoms are worn as a boutonnière, how a cravat is cut. As a reference work that is worth more than a deleted page.
Where do the accessories come from?
Mostly from small family workshops: suspenders and belts from the Veneto near Venice, bow ties and cravats from Calabrese in Naples, knitted ties from Lombardy, leather goods from the area around Florence, boutonnières from Saxon Switzerland and umbrellas from Francesco Maglia in Milan. Their stories are told in the Journal des Herrn.
Who is behind Herr von Welt?
The idea, the curators and their motivations are described on their own page: About us. For questions about the magazine, please use the contact form.
