My biggest problem is that, I'm a big guy and trying to find good big and tall fit, any suggestions?
can you recommend any vests for business casual outfits?
Why can't you be like those handsome Korean men on TV?
Since you're taking to adult men, you might not want to say "smash" the like button....
Your rules are stupid, irrelevant and unnecessary
Step 1: keep it simple Step 2: comfort Step 3: dress for the occasion
Step 4. Never wear suede shoes. Stains stay on it forever.
💯
@@Viewable11 for real
Comfort. That mean a t-shirt or a sweater for me. I cant wear a formal shirt. Somehow its always uncomfertable. 😅
fuck step 3
Okay so hear me out. When you’re in college, it’s fine to dress more “street” style or just comfy trendy clothes. Dressing nice only gets you so far, it’s really your attitude and how you treat others that’s important. You can look like $1 million but if you are antisocial and not putting yourself out there, people aren’t just gonna come up to you.
Some of it true, some of it now. I am a very social person, I can walk up to people and start a talk but I dont have a reputation yet, I've just turned 18 and starting Uni soon, so if I can create a good wardrobe for myself as a man, it will help me build my aura and rep. Good points though, god bless
Agree
I'm ok with people not coming up to me
A good personality is a given. I done the street style trendy clothing in my 20s but it only gets you so far and then you start feeling foolish and not well presented
Good to know….I’ll keep dressing comfy while talking to no one
Men, don’t forget that being fit matters more than the clothes you wear. Then, as long as your clothes fit, you’ll look good in just about anything.
Having a 'small' belly absolutely agree. Until i loose it, no matter what I Wear Looks odd..
@@michalamras We are with you! Hit the gym! You'lle be looking like a god this summer!😎
@@cleaneropinion111 it's exactly what I recently started doing 😁
@@michalamras Amazing!
Doesn't hurt to do both.
I'm 43... Still dressing like I'm in broke and in college. Thanks for the grown up man advice!
Happy to help!
I’m 31 and dress the same way. I go through security in shorts and a T-shirt with socks and open toe shoes lol. Not trying to impress anyone at the airport. Definitely not wearing boots. I’m out of town for work 230-240 days out of the year. Definitely want to be comfortable while traveling. Plus, I’m not really in a line of work that requires me to dress nice. I just hunker down and try to buy as much real estate as possible so I’m not doing this until I’m 60. I just wanted to watch this video because there is something sexy about being stylish. Maybe some day when I’m semi retired and in a different line of work I will want to up my game. Not right now though. Living below my means involves not splurging on really nice clothing. Sorry for the long life story.
Why do people own clothes that are uncomfortable? "I can't dress because I just want to be comfortable." Get clothes that fit. Step up your game.@@RealMenRealStyle
Please wear what you like. These tips are basically just for people that really dont know what they are doing or for people that would like to look like an old white men, there is nothing wrong with that style. But it isnt the only viable style. The best style is the style that you enjoy and feel good in.
@@vojtapergl858it's man also this generation needs too know how too dress and stop looking like a damn slouch it's just lazy in you Americans part
You get to a certain age where how you dress is more to do with personal choice than trying to impress anybody.....much like the fragrances you choose
That's what ppl who rationalise dressing like shit say.
Well I dress like that and I am only 22... 🤔
I think the idea is to have personal choice rooted in objectively correct men’s fashion. A lot of people hide being lazy behind a “personal choice” of style. A lack of style is not personal choice, it’s just not having any style.
Kinda seems like an excuse for your cargo shorts.
@@SerV689 "objectively correct" LMFAO what a load of horseshit 😂
“Guys, this isn’t an outfit, this is an abomination!” 😂
😂😂😂😂😂🔞
W. Been following you since I was a teenager and the impact you’ve had on my adulthood is insane…thanks man, seriously.
Having a good mix in clothing styles is the way to go! There's no need to look "classy" all day, every day... Some young guys who have no clue will watch all these videos and start dressing like a 50 year old every single day and have no self expression... *Balance is key!*
I was about to say this, knowing the occasion is key
@@shawnl.8854 True!
Exactly! Well said, all you need is well fitting clothes for the occasion.
@@romans1227 Correct!
Dress for the occasion, otherwise just be comfortable.
Clothes are a way of expression. Being comfortable and confident in your clothes/style is most important. The clothes don’t make you look good, you make the clothes look good.
When you are good looking, yes. It doesn't really matter what you wear, you will look good on anything.. but when you aren't that good looking gotta admin that your clothing options really make an upgrade on how you looking
@@mandovid stupid comment, work on your self-esteem not the clothes you wear. Even the coolest suit won't change the twisted perception you've got of yourself. Change the inner then the outter.
Gonna have to disagree. The right clothes can enhance an image, and the wrong clothes can weaken it.
@@huntclanhunt9697 Agreed, and along with that work on yourself aswell. Don't be one-sided.
disagree. a suit makes anyone look great. a tankntop and shorts and flipflops to a business meeting not so much.
Don't follow trends, it's a marketting ploy. Buy good casual or dress cloth that fits you well and then slowly add different pieces to your wardrobe over time. Find your personal style as style is personal to us all. Your not going to have all the various versatility in style wear right out the door. But constantly throughout the year and going forward add different elements of clothing thats everlasting and works long term. Over time you will build up having the different functional pieces that gives you so much versatility in what or how to wear whats in your wardrobe you will be dying from choice overload in what to wear and how to wear it. Your just not going to have it day one in dressing like an adult. It takes time.
Great advise. I have been slowly adding to my wardrobe over the past few years.
@@michael7324 Great stuff! Just find a system of improving and upgrading that works for you and your situation. For me personally I went about it by first finding a style and material of trousers I liked and bought several trousers and in the varying standard colors like Black, Charcoal, Tan, Blue/Navy Grey, Olive etc. In time I also got different shades of those colors but still in relative same fabric. Mine of choice was light wool. Medium or heavier wool works for me fine in Winter as I’m in Pennsylvania, so it’s milder weather and cold winter. Over time and way since then I’ve acquired Cotton and Linen trousers over time for variety in my west. However, going back to starting with trousers as I did the logic for me was simple in that if I had a good variety of dress trousers and in a few colors I can mix and match an shirt styled of any kind with any my trousers. From there I just built and improved my wardrobe going forward. Just bought Good dress shirts I can wear to the office. Add a few more pants and more shirts. Then added a 1-2 Navy Color Blazer to up the style. In between all that I improved wearing good leather shoes mostly of a medium to darker brown leather. One good leather Black Oxford was enough at start. Along with all that is properly maintaining and taking care of your cloth and shoes which is a must do. You invest in good clothing, make good sense to properly care and maintain them. In time I just added 1-2 things here and there and overtime you have more variety. As well, properly tailor your cloth. Everything takes time, but your investing in yourself the entire way. People will notice you when you up your style.
@@ardentdfender4116 Some very sound advise. Thank you.
Or joggers to everything and you good
I have watched a lot of your videos and this has to be the most comprehensive guide to casual yet classy dressing. Most men are set in their ways and I'm more than guilty of the same. And this is the nudge we need.
I really appreciate this! I used to watch you a lot back in the day and noticed that you didn't really cover casual styles. Also you were a lot more stilted in your mannerisms back then. You seem much more comfortable and personable here! I love to see it.
The key is layering. It’s why it’s difficult for men to dress sharp and casual for the summer. You’re kind of stuck with only shirts and shorts.
I'll say! It's been awful these past few days, and sharp I did not look. Come winter however and I've got some great outfits lined out!
Tee shirts and shorts make the out-fit about the wearer's fit-ness... and if they don't have a great body then they look bad
It was 100+F° down here in Texas for like 2 WEEKS. Grass everywhere died, which made things incredibly bad for cattle farmers. A lot of them either couldn't afford hay, or couldn't find hay to buy. The weather man was super hyped when it went down to 98 F°. Needless to say, layering for casual purposes is suicidal down here. People that are trapped in suits because of their job were probably having a rough time.
@@Phafanapolis yessir 100!
I stick to light breathable short sleev button up with some breathable chinos and boots…it’s cool enough but you lose cool points if it’s too hot or depending on the occasion like if it’s a bbq or a beach thing then sneakers, sandals chino shorts with a plain t or short sleev button up works fine , sometimes you have to suffer for fashion haha but aye hope this helps
The casual style videos are very useful for me. Am 19yrs old so I won’t be dressing very formal for the vast majority of occasions so videos on casual or even ultra casual style come in very handy. Thanks!
Wonderful!
Personally I wouldn’t recommend the style hints in this video for someone that young. Make sure you have a good fit, don’t do obvious things like socks:sandals, other than that you can dress however you want. Dare! Personally I like what Japanese youngsters wear.
Great video again! Let’s hope not too many follow this path though, I like tp stand out from most of the rest of men 🙂
Dude I’m 26, and I would not recommend you take advise on casual wear from this channel. You will look like a 40 year old. This guys channel is more helpful if you’re a young dude that needs some ideas for how to dress at your stuffy corporate job, but I would never recommend dressing like this to school or college. You will look like you raided your stylish dads closet
@@Kagiso22 yeah you would look old and out of place, but of course I’m not taking every tip at face value and copying what he wears. My style is very different from his. But the main principles of fit etc are useful for everyone.
I’ve actually followed your channel for years. But I think you deserve so much more credit and love because your ways absolutely works! I never paid too much attention on how I dress and I never took you very seriously. But now, I see myself walking in a path of “not caring how I dress”, . I feel pathetic and people don’t take me seriously. I want to change that. Thank you for all your tips, tricks and also for helping us “menBoys”. ❤️
Antonio, thank-you for this video. I recall watching your early video where you were sat on your porch with a heap of clothing and you explained the best way to build a look. The move from Ts to polos etc. that was some years ago and I have followed your advice. I have invested in some classic shoes, boots, chino, sports jackets and shirts. I am refreshing my polos now as I always wear a collar. I feel better and have received compliments (one today whilst wearing my US Navy original Peacoat dating from 1958!) I owe you sir and have spread the word. Many thanks and kind regards, Charles. England.
Thanks again for the style updates! #3 was critical for me, I love boots but struggled to find the right pair so this definitely helps!
Amazing video! As a watch guy, I love that without going into excessive detail, you recommended arguably the best choices for divers watches in the low and medium price point range that’d work with practically anything you wear.
I am glad I found this channel. Since work for home took over I switched to completely athleisure and haven’t really done a good job of maintaining my sense of style.
Holy cow, a sponsor that actually is relevant to the video, and it works. That is the epitome marketing genius. Its the only sponsor section of a youtube video I've actually watched through.
Boots are the ULTIMATE casual footwear. They are a category in themselves and can go from utility, heavy duty work boots to sleek, smoth and dressy Chelseas. I've become a boots guy after watching your videos, Antonio (almost 10 years ago) and I just rarely wear anything else with any kind of pants (except for actual suits). I just match the formality and style of the boots to the pants.
I love boots! Idk how to do it for warm months but when it gets cold i dress from the boots up pretty often.
Been watching for years. Your videos changed my life. It’s sad that these videos are not getting more views. They’re worth their weight in gold!
You can dress up as you want because we are all free to choose what to wear,what to say and what to do.
I think Color Theory is a must, and the "read the room" mentality is helpful too. Try to imagine/picture in the moment that someone you respect walked up behind you or saw you. Would you feel proud or think you look silly.
Great video. I’m retired now but back in my 30s-40s I was a teacher. I taught second grade and one day I realized that I had to dress more maturely. I wore tee shirts, chinos, and black sneakers. I looked at my 7-8 year old male students who were dressed better (their moms still dressed them at that age). From that point on I wore button-down shirts, wool pants and leather shoes. I looked much better and even my kids noticed the change.
Regrettably, teachers nowadays are admittedly not in the least concerned with emanating maturity or even being a role-model for students. Ninety percent of them wear jeans day in and day out (exception: some universities) - and look straight out of Walmart.
Proud to be an individual.
@@hagakuru they aren't paid enough to care
@@Drewsky840 IKR - once was a time when people who pursued being a teacher did it because they wanted to enrich, impact, and educate the next generation. Now, people do it just for a job and nothing more - much in the same way as someone slinging coffee at a Starbucks.
@@hagakuru and when is this magical time you're referring too?
Those overviews of jackets and body types are really helpful. Thanks.
Sending you all my love for this post, it's wonderful.
no one will convince me out of my flip flop, shorts and tshirts, i will wear this outfit until i die lol
@Louis great style nothing wrong with that.i still wear chuck Taylor's and vans aswell.
Keep it up, The best outfit is the your most comfortable and confident with.
Damn straight.
This guy gets it
I struggle to dress nice as I am a mechanic and own a farm. I get caught off guard by very important people coming to see me, but I dont have the time to change out of my ripped clothes. Almost wish you could do a series about dressing smart for dirty occupations!
Try DTC, Duluth Trading Company I've always called them the working man's style because their clothes are very comfortable, tough, last a surprisingly long time, and are priced on the low end of the scale. Started wearing their Firehouse pants years ago while being around lumber and nails a lot and they held up that and you can bend any way you need and they wouldn't bind. Now their jackets are pretty awesome too and cut a nice figure as well.
I’m the same way. I gotta focus on clothes that have more function, than fashion. Those dickies pants though, if the proper size, do got me feeling some type of way 😂 All snazzy and shit. Even got compliments about them, which really surprised me.
Coveralls or over alls would help ,you could just slip it off if needed
Right? Like zero of this would work with what I do in daily life. This seems like casual wear for white collar.
@@Sparkfly88 this is the exact reply I am talking about I couldn’t agree with you more. I would love to have nice clothes, that can handle work, not white collar clothes, but blue collar nice clothes nice clothes (not Deluth or coveralls) but a nice dressed outfit That can handle the rigors. I’m not sure if you mean this or if it would work with your occupation attire, but it’s what I’m looking for!
I'm gonna be 23 in 4 months. I find myself changing my wardrobe to be more adult like & gentlemanly. Thank u for the free game sir.
I bought a few pieces this year that really elevated my look. Textured jackets and knit shirts, a new pair of shoes. Even though I'm wearing t-shirts (nice ones) at work I get compliments on how well-dressed I am.
When I'm out, my favorite thing to where is either a solid black or white tee that fits right, crisp jeans, and my nice puma sneaks. If it's cold, I wear thermals.
Thanks for the great advice, always enjoy your videos! I struggle with casual clothing, because I feel awkward and preppy so I generally resort back to jeans and t-shirts. Only thing I might add is that the difference between a jacket and a coat is based on length, not when it can be worn. Sneakers are definitely not an issue for me, have around 60 pairs that vary from ultraboosts to Louis Vuitton with the majority being Jordan’s, fall and winter I wear a wide array of different boot styles from Timberland to Lucchese and everything in between
I can't agree with this more. As a 45 year old woman, I now dress more maturely because I am. There's no reason for me to look like a 16 year old in ripped jeans and t-shirts. I get loads more respect. 😌
Also: A 45 year old dressed as a 16 year old just looks old and desperately trying to hold on to their youth. A 45 year old dressed like a 45 year old looks confident and the most attractive version of themselves. Man or woman.
Me, too, also female.🙂
why are you watching this men advice video? genuine question
@@meyr1992 I'm another woman enjoying these videos. I like to learn about fashion and what looks good depending on the individuals body shape, face, etc. The opposite gender/sex is similar in that way in terms of interest.
@charlierae8266 Be 45 and still worried about getting respect from individuals that if you talked to them for 10 min would find out their respect isn’t worth having, middle aged women folk. There is a time and a place for everything. Yes, if you are going to an upscale party or restaurant, definitely don’t go in there with a band shirt on. Also, don’t goto a metal concert in a 3 piece suit. This should be common sense. I am not gonna get dressed up for every insignificant event
BROOO THE SHOES WAS MY HANG UP! U SIR R MUCH APPRECIATED 🙏🥋
All I need on a casual lazy sunday is an Omega watch, a crisp white V-neck, japanese selvedge denim pants, stetson silverbelly open road and red wing shop mocs oxfords. Cheers
For Fall, Winter, and Spring, my regular casual outfit is a decent pair of chukka's, Levi 501's, mock turtleneck, half zip or button sweater, Citizen watch, Sabona bracelet, a little YSL cologne, and a smile. You won't break the bank, and you'll always be one of the best dressed in any room. (Make sure your chukka's are clean, with a little shine. They are the foundation of style.) If it's date night, I will elevate the look with Dockers straight fit, button down shirt, Peter Millar sweater, and maybe a tie. All the best guys!
All this is nice except I wish I could substitute your YSL cologne for Play Intense by Givenchy. Sadly it’s discontinued
I recommend YSL - Opium for Fall/Winter day time, and YSL - La Nuit de L'homme or Tom Ford - Amber Absolute for the night.
You wouldn't be if i was in same room obviously.....im a classic lacoste polo ( various colours) Armani jeans blue jeans, Paul and Shark trainers or maybe Churches Navada Chelsea boots occasion depending ,Omega Seamaster James Bond edition watch, if a jacket required maybe Hugo boss leather blouson or full length Hugo Boss coat maybe typhoon by Paul and Shark jacket or a wax barbour weather depending .After shave at moment mount Blanc ......don't forget accessories......Swiss army knife, Hugo Boss leather wallet, Barbour hip flask filled with Jura 10 year old malt.
@@chubbygallasso I like your style, and sense of humor! : )
And you look like all the "Stylish" youtubers who wear a suit even to buy a coffee
Wear whatever you want kings. Be you first and not what others tell you to be
Okay... But you don't wanna look like a hobo and mismatch your outfits, hence I'm here watching this video to level up my style. What about you?
Improvement and good advice isn’t evil
YES...THANK YOU! FOR GIVING THEM HELP!!
Always love your content. Always informative and insightful.
After watching these videos going into my closet makes me feel sad!😂. Great content. Learning from every video!👏🏾👏🏾🔥
He said white long sleeve shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes is an abomination. Thats 90% of my closets. 😢 😂
@@cristiantellez5178 it’s ok wear it if you like it
@@cristiantellez5178 He didn't say that. He was way more specific in his example for a reason. A white long sleeve shirt, blue jeans and black shoes can look absolutely great.
Learned so much from this video, thank you !!!
I'm so glad you mentioned chinos. I love chinos. You should do a video on those alone big fan
T-shirt and chef pants is all I need.
I'm 34 and going through alot of life changes, like being able to look in the mirror without feeling sick and acknowledging health issues. The video really gave me alot to work with when moving forward. I've had the same style for years and it never evolved. That's because I never evolved and now that I am? It's intimidating looking at my closet of clothes that really aren't going to work with me moving forward with life. I think a good start would be keeping up with the channel and learning about new ways of shopping for clothes. That's my biggest concern for getting started.
Don't be weak, clean out that closet. It really will help to move towards the look that you want.
Regarding the question about the sneakers, I personally prefer the coffee brown color you've shown. Very nice. Outstanding videos with useful information. Keep it up!
Bro, I love you so much. So many of your videos are helping improve the quality of my life!
Something that's helped me: When you're out in a crowd, mall, airport, etc., look for guys with the same build, skin tones, or facial structure and see what they're wearing. Or flip it and see who looks really well put-together and consider if any of that works for you. Especially when you're traveling! You'll see what guys who don't live in your home town are wearing.
I like that idea and realized I was subconsciously already doing that for myself!
Dress how you feel, and buy what you can afford. PERIOD!
Fitting plain T-shirts, dickies, dockers, vans, running shoes and workbooks is all I need.
Always great content !!!
I LOVE brogues, I got these navy leather/navy suede pair from Moss Bros (UK) - I have gotten SO many compliments from women about them. Paired them with a set of super high thread count grey trousers, beige lambs wool jumper and a dark blue luxury oxford button down and I have to say I felt like, in American terms, 'a million bucks'.
Casual is a look for certain people, who live a certain lifestyle. I was once the Boy Scout king of casual, today I work more and casual isn’t something I do often. But when you do, it starts with the grooming. The hair cut and face. Once you define your casual hair do, the rest will come naturally
I was pretty excited about the collars and co opportunity - so I used your affiliate link and discount code to get 20% off. However, I had to return the 4 shirts. they were damaged because they were using a type of bobby-pin-like plastic clip that bears down so tightly on the shirt in its packaging that it permanently mars (turns to white spot) the polyester finish, on each front side of the shirt. Their customer service said they had also reported it to the CEO so they could take it up with their manufacturer. Shirts were ruined by their packaging.
Glad I found your YT channel and got some good take aways. Because of my build, I've found that about the only way I find well fitting clothes and shoes is to have the clothes custom made or to find shoe makers with a good selection of lasts. I'll dig through your videos to find something about dressing well w/o breaking the bank. That said, I was in Montreal recently and found some great buys. The dollar is strong and Montreal seems to have a more European clothing style.
Thank you! Yes, you really got me and I did change my style because of you.
Something that I have noticed is that the older you get (56)the more you like to be comfortable. Finding comfortable clothing that fits good looks good and is affordable is an extreme challenge!
Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?"
Amen
Yet you are over here worrying about not even your own life, but someone else's.
I absolutely love this video! Especially 4 button polos!
I've really gotten into wearing pastel coloured oxford button down shirts, tucked in with some decent jeans or chinos they can still look casual but are just as comfortable as a t-shirt in warm weather, especially with the sleeves rolled up, but it just looks way more stylish wearing a rolled sleeve collared shirt than a basic t-shirt. I vacation a lot in the Norfolk Broads and looking at some vintage photos, you get men doing manual work digging dykes and prepping sailing yachts while wearing high waisted trousers, suspenders and collard shirts, but they still look casual and stylish at the same time.
My alternative to a sneaker is actually a Grey Canvas shoe from Toms. Excellent choices!
Solid colored Van Era 59s are a great option as well.
@@no_guarantees Sounds like another nice option indeed. I think the issue with Toms is that some might find them a bit childish looking but personally mine don't look that bad lol..They look like a more casual form of Derbies.Thank you for the feedback.
@@Manuel421 I ll be looking into the Toms myself, 😊👍🏾
Wear what makes you comfortable
Speechless, humbled and grateful.
I ditched jeans a few years back. It was difficult for a while but I am so glad I did. Linen pants were a great replacement, fit well and look great
I am really big on Anti-fashion, in moderation, but I think these tips are useful to an extent even if you’re trying to break the mold
Exapt no sports shoes.... Like I get the no Walmart speicals but $140 wisbang nikes? Like what happens if you can't afford $400 pair of shoes that will kill you feet?
sir you are very very very highly under rated....people always say that it's what inside your heart that matters...but everyone knows that good style is the key to being taken seriously and it can sometimes open doors for you.....you cut the hypocrisy and speak the unadulterated truth....you deserve more respect sir especially in today's time
Good style doesn't matter to me. You should treat people seriously regardless of clothes
@@konyvnyelv. Yeah well too bad that's not how the world works
Absolutely
Two years ago i found a British Flat Cap on Sale.. made out of 100% Quality Wool.. i love it ever since.. it goes with almost everything..now its my signature cap..
Dress yourself where you feel good and comfortable with. Don't let yourself be dressed because the people around you ask you to. Although... sometimes it's good to bring yourself out of your comfort zone, and try something new when you're buying new clothes. Just to see how it makes you feel.
Dress yourself according to the place you want to be. Good sense is the rule here, if you wanna be with people that are just chatting and relaxing, go comfy, you wanna be with some people to talk about bussiness, show that you`re the organized one with a good taste. It`s more abou the ocassion than about the clothe. Also, "go with what you like", only works until 30, after that you're going to understand that being a colored-emo-goth-otako-kpoper will not move you anywhere.
@@rob3r7jr Thank you can you post this on the main comments? Too many people think taking liberties for comfort over conformity in here. Sure we're all individuals, but we're individuals in a collective society, maybe act like it if you want to join the rest of us.
nahh if thats the case.. i would wear pajama pants and flipflops... tanktop would be optional..
Well said! 💯
The guy in this video reminds me of the people in high school who spent all their time worried about people's fashion and what everyone is thinking.
After 45 years, how that Galactic Empire logo tee at 1:19 is not considered a menswear classic is beyond me… 😆 LOL
Love your content and how to the point you are.
As a favorite shoe for myself, my go to is the classic Sperry boat shoe. You can wear it up or down and the medium brown goes well any way you wear it
I’m a collage student who started a real estate company and my uniform is black linen shirt(two buttons undone) with blue jeans and pair of Chelsea boots or black converse high tops with a Casio vintage on my wrist. Learned a lot from you; Thank you so much.
That Casio vintage: the black resin LCD one?
That's a very good uniform- consider upgrading to an entry level luxury watch (Tissot prx powermatic 80, Chris Ward, seiko samurai) when you can. Don't forget some nice shades. And check out Naked and Famous jeans to really keep your denim on point.
Nice video Antonio! I know you have a bundle of sponsors that you recommend but as an Australian who needs to deal with the struggles of the summer heat, personal preference to avoid synthetic fibers, and a more casual culture than what you're likely accustomed to, do you have any online retailer recommendations for some summer basics that I can rely on being good for my wardrobe in both fit, and make as well as for the environment? Sincerely, a put-together Aussie lamenting the coming summer.
P.S. also on dealing with sweat on well-fitting, quality clothes in summer that I want to extend the lifespan on; in winter I can easily wear an undershirt but should I continue doing the same in summer or maybe get a more relaxed fit?
Simple, solid color sneaks are smart, easy to wear with most casuals, but I think running shoes that match favorite shirts & pants are great.
Love this channel! Excellent tips!
I'm 60 and my son (22) is working his 1st job in IT post-graduation from college. Smart, good looking with terrific personality. Trying to get him to expand his wardrobe and getting a lot of resistance. His bar/club attire is hoody, Lulu pants, and white sneakers. I've hid the sandals deep in another closet. 😞HELP!
Haha i think he will get it right soon, im 22 too and had bad wardrobe choices till like 4 years ago.. what made my choices better was going to college and feeling the need to present myself in classy manner in this new environment.. try telling him to meet new different people, different perspectives from themmight inspire him
I can truly relate to your situation 😩
I prefer dressing Like A MAN. R.I.P to Kevin Samuels. 🇿🇦
Thanks bro I really enjoyed him alot from Nigeria 🇳🇬
So true 💪🏽 RIP KEVIN🙏🏽 I started follow him cause this recommendation of colognes were amazing too
@@kanker5256 you're entitled to your opinion lad.

Great video. Thank you. Love from Nigeria
Definitely took alot from this video! Nice content.
Sorry man, I'm never going to give up the graphic tees. It's a good way to start a conversation among people "hey I like your shirt" has started so many conversations for me.
That's your individual style, dress it up with some of his suggestions. Style over Fashion.
same
No apologies necessary ......... man. Eventually you may grow out of trying to attract attention with graphic tees. Graphic tees are the wardrobe equivalent of fake testicles on an F-150 trailer hitch.
idk man graphic t's are fucked and seem boyish
I do quite well looking different than all the frat boys
I don’t know how to put this but I think your circle matters to an extent. What I mean by that is socks with sandals is considered a faux pas to most people, but amongst athletes(football, basketball, etc) one would be made fun of for not wearing socks with slides.
I agree. But that's because slides and sandals are different.
New to your channel. You reinforced my habit of getting my jeans tailored.
The compliments part is true, I got asked when I buy my jackets and coats, and how good they look
So glad I have this channel. Abt to be 25 time for me to start being a man and grow out of the child phase. I still feel like I'm 18 fresh out of high school and yeah I'm still very young but it's time to take that next step.
Hey VAK29 - solid plan!
I've started to take that next step as well. I'm also 25 and just got my first suit a few months ago! I'm currently working on the shirts & accessories. Antonio: That sponsor was perfectly timed! I was just thinking today I needed to upgrade my polo shirts
You're whole generation still are. I see people your age wearing Anime shirts and Pokemon shirts like nothing..lol
@@OrangeCounty92 yeah it's crazy people get away with not looking very good. It's sad because the only reason I'm here rn trying to better my life is I had a wakeup call. So many of these people won't ever have that and will continue this modern trend of looking homely and just existing instead of actually living. I don't want to be looking back in my 40s-50s and regret everything, I'm already regretting my last 7 years.
@@OrangeCounty92 I've seen that time and time again too. People my age are wearing graphic tees and ill-fitting jeans too often. That's why I like my smart-casual and business-casusal items, like suits, and nice shirts and pants (of which I have many). They make me stand out from most people my age. Antonio is right when he says you feel smarter when you dress well. Though I have several other types of shirts, like dress shirts and oxfords, I would still like more polo shirts though
I enjoy this, I didn't grow up with a father to teach me how to dress or anything about being a man. Thanks to that, I learned that the only correct way to dress is the way that makes you happy!
The last person you want to learn "about being a man" from is some barbie princess who confuses manhood with outfit selection 😂
Being a man is not how you dress. I've seen men who are homeless on the street with tattered clothes have a bigger heart than the guy driving a Benz, wearing an Armani suit and a Rolex watch on his wrist.
These are nice for the few occasions I would need this. Nice to have the 2-3 options in the closet. I’m a uniform at work guy and outside work clothes on my days off.
Love your vibe and insight
I dress like I'm going to the gym all the time and I love it.
Exactly me too. Unless it’s a specific occasion there’s no need to wear anything else.
Yup. It's comfy and it's durable.
Legit advice. I remember when I use to do all that dress coordination in my younger years. Funny enough, I've devolved into dressing up like a kid (joggers, sandals, shorts, t-shirt, graphic polo shirts). I devolved because I'm a tech professional, and to thrive in that environment you dress down for comfort. It helps in fitting in and bonding with your fellow techies. When I compare, I honestly enjoy dressing up as a kid. I just wear it in such a way that it contours my body just right. When I dressed up on a regular, it was a confidence builder, made me feel important, and I got noticed more, but I did it for other ppl. I got to a stage in life where I've advanced in my career and it's not a career dependent upon how ppl perceived the way I look and dress. As such, it is very liberating not having to dress for other ppl and look a certain classic, gentlemanly way. If you have to look good as part of your profession to make a living, definitely stick to this form of casual. In the end, I've notice that you dress for those who need to see you look good, and dress for yourself when you've become successful enough to rock your own style and not care what others think. Money and prosperity allows a lot of freedom, including the way you prefer to dress and ppl having to accept that. When ppl talk to you, they will quickly realize if you have the mentality of a boy or the mind of a man.
I’d agree, but I’d add that success probably came based on your ability to perform to the desires of others which is why they’ve paid you for your performance. In certain circumstances that performance includes “appropriate” attire.
I highly agree with the last statement. I understand the video is just trying to help, but yeah, it doesn't matter if you dress nicely, your words and actions will still be the one to carry or betray you when talking to people.
I would agree working in tech that dressing in the classic gentlemanly way or business casual w/e you would look out of place at the office. Most people just wear bandshirts and hoodies. Unless of course your job is in sales or such at the tech company.
That white shirt, denim jeans with a big Texas belt buckle and cowboy boots rock. George Straight style. Antonio, nice coat and cool shirt
There is a time and place for all style. If you're going to wear a sweat outfit it needs to be clean and nice with fresh kicks. Apply the same to your dress clothes. I play gigs in polo from head to toe with some florsheim kicks then afterwards switch into some nice jordan casual attire. After I mop up all my sweat and freshen up. People seeing you go from one attire to the next is often a conversation starter. I've made friends and business connects stemming from style talk.
Exactly! Having a good mix in clothing styles is the way to go!
Loved this video! I’ve found that you should gaving clothing categories: Gym clothes for the gym, causal but clean going out clothes for going out, dress clothes for events etc and likely other categories and same with shoes: winter, workout, put and about. The same principles apply you want clean looks, simple colors and designs and maybe just some accenting and this will apply to all of your categories.
L O V E the Henley!! 💕 So effortlessly stylish, and it’s just like a tee in comfort, but looks way better! 👌 They always catch my eye when a guy wears one-doesn’t happen very often, either. If you’re a really casual dresser, add these to your wardrobe! You’ll probably get more noticed by the ladies (for your style), even on your casual days…almost 💯 guaranteed! Whenever I pick out garments or accessories for guys, they always come back & tell me how many compliments they received! It was a BIG deal for them, because these weren’t the type of men who ever got noticed.
It's funny, there is another style "expert" on KZhead and she HATES henley's on men. I'm glad to hear someone likes them, I know I do 😄
@@ic5319 I don’t know what she likes, but I’m very casual myself, and am fine w/ guys not dressing up. I love good design, and henleys have all the elements. The cut, shoulder line, button placement, type & weight of knit material-it all looks good to me. It makes an average-looking guy cuter, because it shows (to me) that he’s got great taste! 👍 There’s a certain sweater-I don’t know what it’s called-but it looks like something that a guy who likes henleys would wear. It’s popular in the UK & Europe. It’s like a light cable knit, and has a couple buttons up top, then I think an asymmetrical collar? Not sure if I’m remembering it correctly, but it’s something Foy Vance would wear in the winter.
I’ve been upgrading all aspects of my life going into manhood, but this, THIS, is the cherry on top. Time to look like a man.
Absolutely. Have been working on it as well. Just turned 18, time to become a man!
If you want to look like a man exercise is better than clothes
Love the watch advice. I got into watches with one of the MVMTs that you had in that b roll (red and black "dive" watch). Loved it, appreciate it as a gateway, but couldn't believe the difference in quality of legacy watch brands till I got my SKX!
Your channel has helped me immensely, THANK YOU
Since mid 2020 here
"This isn't an outfit. This is an abomination." haha. Love this because it's so true. It is literally time to MAN UP.
Apart from the obvious advertising of products, promos this guy is on point.
As a man over 50, my picks for shoes are black Oxfords, brown monk straps, and blue suede shoes. At the most casual, it's a pair of white Nike walking shoes or sage New Balance (also walking shoes, super light and comfortable). All highly recommended for the more mature cultured barbarian 😁
I am really trying to start focusing on upgrading my appearance and style, but have no background and no clue where to start. You’re videos have been very helpful! I ordered a couple shirts from collars and co to give me a start and see how they work. You mentioned In another video about having tons of clothes to get rid of and having sent them to people in the last. I’m about 5’9” 160 lbs, in fair shape but not “jacked” or bulky. If you happened to have a jacket you don’t need or use that might work for me, jackets/blazers are the one thing that intrigues me but I don’t know where to start or if I’ll like them or be able to make it work, and the cost for something I’m unsure of is daunting. Anyway, appreciate all the vids!
