Christian has always been a real one when it comes to fashion and creating new ideas. Over the past few months I've gone on an unsubscribing spree of fashion influencers because their videos have gotten stale and out of touch by just repeating the same basic same things instead of evolving. When you mentioned "dad jacket" that reminded me of a leather jacket that my grandpa used to wear and I grabbed it out the closet to find out that it still fits. Now I'm adding this leather jacket to my "Cool Jacket" rotation. Thank you Christian 😤
He benefits from the fact that his channel had never really been about constant consumption or buying. From what I can tell at first it was sort of like memes and trend riding. Then, as his style developed, it became more about actual elements of style and now it’s just like philosophy.
i've noticed you are in really good shape these days. good on you! i'd like to see a diet/workout style vid talking about it if that's something you'd like to do.
Broken in raw denim after it is 2-3 years old, got a nice soft blue color and the first repairs in is also god tier. Requires patience to not wash too often, requires thought to not wear it in scenarios where it is going to get so dirty that it stinks and has to be washed afterwards like wild parties or vacations where you travel a lot on dirty train seats etc., requires effort to hang outside to get fresh, do dip it between neccessary washes to get fresh again. Requires intelligence and thought to choose the right size to begin with to not end up with a pair of denim that is to loose or to tight. Aftterall it gives: +100 individuality by fades that your wearing and washing caused, +100 comfort, +100 fulfilment by having achieved all that through hard work, +100 karma points for saving the environment from at least 2-3 pairs of cheap denim someone else buys in the timeframe of 5-10 years.
@@notdanny4985 Dipping means putting it into warm or cold water and just letting it sit there, moving the jeans around a little bit. Drying them with fresh air afterwards makes them fresh again and is more gentle to the colors. Washing raw denim less leads to higher contrast fades, but sometimes they just need to be freshened up, so a dip in between regular washing an be helpful.
Shout out to the worn in leather tier. I fell into western wear years back and the joy of finding used cowboy boots that are well broken in for cheap, wearing them a few times to get the proper feel, and then bam - feels like you've had them bois on for 20 years. Blessed moment. Also passed down jackets, ooo yeah. Got my dads airforce parka for those rare super cold days and my granddads football cardigan that I still wear regularly. I wish they were easier to wear in more outfits but when the temps dip hard they come out.
Dude same, kinda awkward though for my case. My parents gave my brother and I their "couple jackets " and said "you two look just like us when we were together". My brother and I just look at each other and nvr have i ever wanted to us kill each other so bad😂
😂 the girlfriend hoodie myth is true , so many though out the years have been showing up at my mom's doorstep. It's like a library book being returned after 12yrs
My favorite hoodie (and the one ive worn since 5th grade) is an Old Navy hoodie that says "Brooklyn" on it, it's literally the most perfect hoodie to the point once my old one literally fell apart from two decades of use i went online and found two more so i can always have them on deck
I just had the same relationship with a death note graphic t shirt, I found it again in the feria libre, on top of a blanket in the floor, I fell in love again, I'm heavier now but the t shirt was larger. I love I love I love that shirt.
Finally retiring my Broken-In Leather Shoes (a pair of Nappa leather Doc Marten ankle boots) after nearly 15 years of noble service. Through rain, shine and snow, through the grimiest Philadelphia streets and concert venues, they carried my flat-ass feet through it all. The soles are officially too worn down to be comfortable anymore. So I'm archiving them (putting them in the back of the closet) and getting an identical new pair. The cycle starts anew, but there will only ever be one OG pair.
The jacket is soooo awesome! Congrats man. Haven't been on youtube for entertainment videos in the last weeks, this is the first video I am watching after some time from you and it made my morning. Girlfriend hoodie also very legit take. Thanks and best regards from Bayreuth, Germany :)
My dad passed me down his super heavy leather jacket, I think he brought it from Russia in the 80's... it has a gun holster built into the inner lining.
9:53 OKAY. That tricep flex instantly made me understand the definition of "God fit tee". Band tee or tour tees are my go to "God-fit tees". That Rolling Stones tee is tough. I'm shopping for a Metallica tee on Grailed while I listen to the knowledge you're preaching.
I heard if you collect all pieces like exodia you directly ascend upwards to the pantheon and become a DRIPGOD, dripping sidequests to those pieces from the heaven aboves
I love the dad jacket. I have my grandpa’s high school varsity jacket that my dad found in his house after he died and it’s easily the coolest piece of clothing I own
I would like to contribute: “the band shirt from that one god tier concert” it can’t just be any band shirt, it’s gotta be from that one concert you went to that changed you and because of that any time you wear it you have like 100x the aura
I know a lot of comments are just memeing around but you genuinely keep making me laugh and every video is enjoyable asf. Thank you! And hell am I stuck on this girlfriend quest rn.
I have a pale blue floral satin button down from urban outfitters that I got maybe 6 years ago. People always tell me how nice it looks. I tried it on in the store, didn't buy it then, but took a picture of the tag in case I changed my mind later. I changed my mind later and bought the second to last one in stock on their website. UO has never had a piece like that again in all the years since. Truly Goated.
My dad jacket rng wasn’t cooking but the HAND ME DOWN BRAZILIAN PRECIOUS STONES THO 😮💨 Also in this tier list should be friend power ups- got merch from our favorite artist as my friend in different colors and it’s always fye to see them rep it
Forgetting bout the God Hat, for me it’s one of my fitteds. The stitching is just right and it’s perfectly snug and curved 🤤 I got several fitteds of the same size but they just don’t FIT right like the god hat
my "god fit tee" and my "dad jacket" are both the same item. It's a Led Zeppelin T shirt my mom wore to a concert in ehr 20s and now she's given it to me and it fits so perfect
I had a dancer shoes that I loved so much at 11 y/o so I wore them to school because it was very similar to school uniform shoes. Every day. I wore them to my first communion, man I was so secure and happy with my white robe, I run a little in front of the church, it was raining so I slipped and fall on the back, I had mud all over my robe and I had to do my first communion like that. If your gonna use shoes with leather/wood sole for every day use, put a rubber sole on them so you won't slip.
@12:41 yup for me it's a pair of super faded used to possibly be black: to the point where they're grey, skinny Levi's with the usual red tag being black and with knee holes on both sides aka my knee breezeers.
The dad jacket has the most sauce everrr but it's a very privileged piece to have. I have one and in my mind it's probably the most valuable thing I own
Naw this is valid, my all time fav pair of pants was some Empyre cords that my homie gave to me cuz he bought a pair in the wrong size, I've worn them weekly for like 4 years.
Worst feeling is outgrowing a god fit tee. I outgrew my old one and now I'm waiting for my dad to pass down his Ozzy tour tee (which will also gain cross-progress stats from the dad jacket category)
Would also recommend adding any "work piece" to the GOAT tier. Any piece that you DIYed or altered/upcycled increases exclusivity, perceived drip, and personality.
This dude has changed the way I look at and value my wardrobe. He's like mari kondo of clothing, I straight up respect my best pieces now like theyre a person
watching this whilst wearing my partner's tee. great thing about both being dudes that wear the same clothing sizes is that we can infinitely borrow each other's wardrobes. very rewarding and twice the clothes 10/10 would reccommend
Homie hoodie is top tier. Hes my best friend and got me into fashion in 10th grade. Sold me his slightly worn stussy hoodie for 40 under market price. Wear that shit to this day it brings back memories i miss him
dude my dad jacket is a super old denim jacket from like the 80s, tag disintegrated, naturally faded to a light wash with some real distressing at the collar. The jacket fits me PERFECTLY it’s insane. my dad was like 3 inches taller than me in the 80s so idk why it fits me so well. doesn’t fit him anymore. my rng was crazy because I found it in the back of the closet at a time when I was wanting to buy a light wash denim jacket
You're missing the "Jacket you wore every day in school that's kinda worn/weathered and may have a couple small holes" and the "Grandparents windbreaker from the 60's/70's"
My granddad came in clutch with the sherpa lined bulky leather resident evil jacket like a year or two before they massively blew up and my biggest shame is that whenever i'm wearing it and i see someone in a brand new unbroken zara with perfect but cheap looking sherpa on the collar i feel so much better than them (also one of my most complimented jackets and reminds me to visit my grandparents more #LoveYouGranddad)

You’re lucky for that flight jacket. The hand pockets are in the absolute perfect place, why don’t more jackets have pockets there
The dad jacket has to be the strongest item in the game, so strong it can even massively outperform the grey sweatpants
