KEEP bracelet was a gift from his wife.

raig Duff gets a question that's more common
for a four-year-old kid at a birthday party than
a forty-two year old federal law enforcement
officer. "Did you dress yourself?"
The answer is yes, head to toe—and inside out.
The thing people mention most? Those eyeglasses.
He's only worn them a short time, but he keeps getting
the same remark: You look like a spy from the Cold War.
Duff's smooth retro-cool aura doesn't lend itself to
denim: he's a flat-front trouser fellow. Though he doesn't
brag about his footwear collection, he admits, "My wife
would say I'm a shoe guy." Duff has yet to collect fine
watches—but he's tempted. "It's an expensive habit…I
could easily succumb." This tall, lean fellow prizes his
sentimental Seiko, a gift from his parents.
His wife had better make room in the closet: Duff,
who hails from artsy Austin, Texas, will surely pass along
his sense of style to their young son.
