BAMF Style article on Magnum
I sort of buried this link in the thread I started on Magnum's shirts, but I thought it was worthy of its own topic so people had a chance to read it.
It focuses quite a bit on the Green Star Orchid aloha shirt, but covers other wardrobe territory as well. I really don't know anything about the website, but the author seems to dig into movies and TV shows to celebrate how popular leading men were dressed.
Anyway, definitely worth a read.

Just what does BAMF mean? Either the author is up himself and assumes we must know some acronym he made up, or I am just not up on the latest slang.
Good find on your part, regardless.

When the blog author uses BAMF, the inference is that he is such a stone tough guy himself that he is empowered to determine if Selleck/Magnum
rates the BAMF grade. I am embarrassed for people who revel in that macho crap - "look at me, I use the F word".
I liked what the blogger wrote otherwise. Not that I don't curse like a sailor at times, but the BAMF is kids stuff.
