The Man: he original Cool Jack, Samuel L. Jackson has cultivated his own signature style with seemingly no effort at all. Because his kind of coolness is something that just is. And while his movies have ranged from Oscar quality (Pulp Fiction) to forgettable (do you remember Deep Blue Sea?), his attitude (that he’s too cool to care) never wavers.
Style Statement: It’s all about the accessories with Jackson, especially the ubiquitous Kangol hat and a slick pair of specs. He’s not afraid of jewelry, either, though he keeps it tasteful with simply chains for the most part. The clothes? Neutrals, muted colors, and monochromatic. And if you’re going for Jackson’s vibe, it’s not all about dressing up, either. He rocks a graphic T-shirt and jeans just the same as a tux, without hardly trying.
