I am a believer in the tweed jacket. It goes everywhere. With, jeans, slacks, turtleneck, button-down. Every man needs one. (Properly sized/tailored of course) It's a solid investment.
@@Angel-ph4xlHmm. Never gave it much thought, but when I think of a tweed jacket, I think of a jacket with flap pockets. (They're kind of rugged outdoorsy, utilitarian by nature. Great in a drizzle) I stumbled across one in a fine blue/black houndstooth that fit well off the rack and it's been everywhere with me. Straight jeans and a flat cap and you could probably be tolerably fashion-proof from 1850 to the year 3000.
I agree with the all the "rules" andI really liked most of the outfits, but I would add not to mix jeans and jackets in a color and shade that looks too similar; that combo looks like those made up "suits" that are not really a suit: hand-me-down wool black jacket paired with cotton faded black slacks, NO!. I'd suggest either different colors or contrasting shades of a color. Other than that, all looks are great.
Of course, nowadays everyone can dress (and undress) as he wants... (I wonder how we can pass values to the new generations such as loyalty, honour and so, when we failed to explain them that thorn clothes are to be repaired or replaced, not to be worn...). The way I see it, the rules for a blazer/jeans combination fit in two words: never, ever.
This combination is a more contemporary look, and traditionalists may not approve. I can understand that. That being said, I view the jeans and blazer look, as a way of creating a more refined casual look. There is some very good guidance provided here. There is a time and place for this. As long as you know that this is meant for casual occasions, it can really look good. Just make sure, as Antonio often says “Know the dress code, and there is always a dress code!” I do think that it is worthwhile to teach how to maintain and replace clothing. It teaches self-respect. I will not quibble with you as to what qualifies as fashion, and what is trash. While I suspect that you and I share many of the same standards and preferences, fashion is subjective. I do agree with you that character traits like loyalty and honour are extremely important, and largely absent in today’s society. I would add, that a dearth of civility, common courtesy, and basic etiquette, are particular disturbing. I spent the weekend at a luxury hotel with my wife. There were couples there with children aged 8-12. The children were often on their gadgets as they were eating, speaking loudly, had no idea how to use a knife and fork, licking their fingers, chewing with their mouths open, and getting up and walking around the restaurant. Then you look at their parents, and you see why. Mothers licking their fingers. Fathers wearing hats at the table, and exercising the same poor etiquette as their children! So many have failed to teach their children etiquette and courtesy. This is indicative of the general lack of civility that exists in society today. People who have no consideration for others. You hear it all of the time, parents who just want to appease their children, rather than instilling values, and cultivating character. That is of greater concern to me, than changes in fashion.
I wear a sports coat/blazer with jeans (SBJ for short) combination regularly, and always receive compliments. The key is, to repeat Dave Nagrom's point about "dress code", is venue. SBJ is not appropriate for formal office wear, nor for any formal occasion not specifically mentioned in a dress code, such as weddings or funerals. On the other hand, a SBJ combination works very well at a restaurant, bar, club, or other entertainment venue. In fact, you will shine like a beacon in a room full of baggy sweatpants, tee shirts, and flip-flops. I believe providing a positive example of what is possible is more productive than ranting about failure!
We’ll can’t suit jackets go well with jeans. They can be formal - just well cut. The best outfit was the formal jacket and distressed jeans 😂. All the others looked preppy and low grade.
Antonio! Some simple constructive criticism. I have no idea who Thomas is. Your channel is best if it is you doing the narration. We come here to listen and watch you do RMRS, not Thomas. Keep it simple. Keep it yours.
Hey Craig - not sure how long you've been watching the videos on my channel but Thomas is one of my awesome video editors. I think he's doing a great job and the comments here also agrees :) Thanks!
@ Antonio Thank you for the reply. Good to know. He did a good job. I was not aware. I have been subscribed for a while now and enjoy your videos. Semper Fi.
This is how I dress when I fly. It's sill comfortable, and I have the jacket pockets for electronics, usb cords, and snacks. Best part is that I don't look like the douche next to me wearing sweatpants and a neck pillow!
RULE #6 - As seen in all of the looks shown, make sure that your shirt placket, belt buckle and fly of your jeans are all in a STRAIGHT LINE! If this is overlooked, it will ruin your perfect outfit. Fantastic video!!! Straight to the point, and the different outfits give great style guidance. Go kill it, gentlemen!
Good video but I disagree on the Presidential Fold pocket square. It’s too formal for Jeans and a blazer. I have an olive corduroy blazer with brown elbow patches...it goes great with a pair of jeans.
I also have an olive corduroy blazer - no elbow patches though, but I would consider adding them - and I think it looks fantastic with jeans. I have actually got a LOT of compliments on it
Hint when washing dark jeans always use cold water and never place them in a dryer. Let them air dry on a hanger and they will stay dark for many years. Not digging the white pant outfit or the light color blazer. I prefer a darker jacket and pant.
You can dry them in dryer. Turn them inside out, dry medium, but damp dry setting. Then hang over a chair or something for half a day. 100% drip-dry would take forever here in Oregon.
This is a very well conceived video. Good rules. I have worn this look before, and it works if the fit is done right. I hate to see a man wearing a suit jacket as a blazer. It NEVER works!
Such a good point! I’ve been guilty of the ‘orphaned suit jacket’ and jeans combo in the past, it doesn’t look good. Blazers need to be their own thing and not just taking one half of a suit jacket, the texture and structure point is really important. Having said that, you can get some nice suit jackets for cheap when they’re being sold off because there’s no trousers etc., worth using them paired with smart trousers for a more relaxed Italian ‘spezzato’ style - I find this a great alternative to a full suit in the summer.
Terrible combinations! The jackets are all too long, making your legs shorter as well as looking like you used the jacket of a suit rather than a sports jacket. Also the jackets are way too roomy. But maybe that's how Americans like their jackets... The colors are way too ton-sur-ton. Go more contrasting on the dark blue jeans
Two bits of advise DO NOT bring this look for a corporate job interview ever. Also do not show up for an interview without wearing socks. The interview is over before you sit down. Your first impression is made as you walk in the door.
Great video Thomas! Really appreciate all that examples. I have a week packed with business meetings and I'll be wearing one of those outfits. You put the viedo out at the right time.
Maybe it's just me but I think all of the featured looks are clumsy and unattractive. I like the basic look of a casual sport coat with jeans but not in these combos. two cents
All perfect with just a single thing out of place... match your metals, if you are wearing a gold tone belt buckle make sure your blazer buttons are gold tone (if metal) and your watch is gold tone, a silver tone watch looks out of place with all gold elsewhere. Kind of like matching your leathers with shoes and belts.
Very sorry, at my boarding school many boys wore jeans with their school blazer and school tie, and all my life I have used the combination. My favourite has always been blue jeans (not too dark), well-polished shoes, a shirt with French cuffs, a dark blue double-breasted blazer with black buttons, and a silk tie/bowtie. Many other combinations, of course, including a T-shirt with my jeans and blazer. Wearing ripped jeans with a blazer is not a question of too casual since ripped jeans are not an item in a well-dressed person's wardrobe.
Necktie and jeans is Zack Morris from Saved By the Bell. Stop that. Forever. That being said, bark blue blazer with dark blue jeans, especially skinny jeans, is just a Millenial suit. Wrong. Never. Yes, dark jeans. But always an obviously different jacket. Black, grey, charcoal, any pinstripe, chocolate, etc. And shoes as needed based on the colour combinations already made.
That is NOT a blazer, that is a suit jacket, a blazer is a single coloured jacket, usually with patch pockets, that ALWAYS has metal buttons. Do some research before trying to advise in style.
Jeans never look good with jeans, in my view. Ever. Always looks mismatched and forced, to say nothing of hackneyed given the inexplicable popularity of the look. There are lots of trousers out there that look a thousand times better with jackets. So make a decision: jeans or jackets. But never both.
Never ever SKIP wearing a belt.. buy one with a heavier buckle. This will allow you an advantage in a knife fight an extra meter in arm length, and heavy buckle will deter any would be mugger..just saying..
I am 72. I live in France. I want wear the clothes that feel comfortable. I do not care if they impress or are fashion. Fashion is in the eye of the beholder n'est pas? Why spend lots of money on clothes for trying to impress people? Who? Do I care if some stranger is going to be fashion police? This I do not understand. I wear blue jeans and long shirts with leather jacket and scarf in cold weather and shorts and t-shirt in warm weather. I live in south of France where it very hot in summer. Maybe I am dressed more like 20 years old people. Maybe when I young, okay fashion important because I need to conform at my work, but I retired, so comfortable is best.
If you lived in Oklahoma or Wichita maybe you can get away looking with like that the closest extremely cheap the shoes look cheap the belt looks cheap what are you buying you clothes at JCPenney‘s if you’re going to wear cheap jeans at least wear Levi’s and try to get a nice blazer you know at least five $600 if you’re going to wear with jeans I was always taught to miss mix and match and the shoes definitely have to cost at least $300 anything cheaper than that you might as well aware of shorts and a T-shirt and forget the blazer look
OMG! I live in America and dress as I please. I find it silly that someone is telling people "the rules" about dressing jeans and blazers. Sounds like something a woman would do.
I really enjoy these videos of yours, Thomas! One thing I feel the urge to point out: at 3:15, you're just wearing regular Semi-Brogue Oxfords, not Balmorals 😉 On a pair of Balmoral Oxfords, the throatline continues all the way to the back of the shoe, like on a pair of Full Wing or Long Wing Brogues. In my opinion, Balmoral oxfords (especially on plain-toe oxfords) look like regular oxfords with overshoes -- I don't care for the look, personally 😂 Overall, I loved the video! Very Informative!
Personally i think jeans and a suit jacket don't go together... your either in a full suit or you stick to the rodeo look. I've seen guys with suits wearing tennis shoes.. it looks sloppy lazy and silly. The top is going one way and the bottom is going the other way. But than again we are living in Weird modern times.. as I'm watching this, you atleast make the style look Good!
Look No. 2 is a disaster. Next, never ever should you wear white jeans. Your pocket square selection is mundane. Last, always press your shirt properly.
The only outfit that stands out as stylish is the tshirt at the end. All the jackets look too big and I bet if you tried on much shorter ones with highish buttons you'd be amazed at the difference. I'd even try going down half a chest size and leaving it unbuttoned for a really smooth look. Also look for nicer shirt collars, use an iron for the shirts, mix up the footwear with neat casuals and throw away some of those watches! ✌️
please stop with the term sports coat. It's a blazer, most people have never even seen a sports coat in person. But a sports coat would be a lawn jacket, or a rowing jacket. It wouldn't be anything you would be paring with every day cloths
Happy to realise that my instincts about jeans and blazer are spot on. And finally as my dad use to say ‘It’s ok to go unshaven if you are not wearing a tie(or conversely, when wearing a tie always shave (unless you have a formal beard… stumbles are a strictly no-no with a tie))
And don't wear those awful cheap light brown/tan shoes with it. So many men wear cheap shoes 👞 and never get them repaired when the heel is knackered and worn down.

Yep! Corduroy as well.
is it okay if a tweed jacket has flap pockets for jeans? thanks
@@Angel-ph4xlHmm. Never gave it much thought, but when I think of a tweed jacket, I think of a jacket with flap pockets. (They're kind of rugged outdoorsy, utilitarian by nature.

Straight jeans and a flat cap and you could probably be tolerably fashion-proof from 1850 to the year 3000.
I really like how they show the watches that combine with the outfit, I don't remember any other youtuber doing this, good work!!
He Spoke Style used to do this...
I agree with the all the "rules" andI really liked most of the outfits, but I would add not to mix jeans and jackets in a color and shade that looks too similar; that combo looks like those made up "suits" that are not really a suit: hand-me-down wool black jacket paired with cotton faded black slacks, NO!.

Agree! Need contrast
Agree
All look good, but I like 4:33 the best. I appreciate your bringing lighter colors into the mix.
Great combo
I wear velvet blazers with jeans -- works well
My favorite loafers are either Cole Hann, Nunn Bush, or Stacy Adams.
What about blazers and formal pants?
Believe the pocket square is also to formal along with the dress shoes! Try some Air Jordan's next time or some Jeezy's
You’re the best man. Thank you
👍 now I feel well armed on how to wear a blazer
I like tux and jeans, but then I used to go round like that about 40 years ago:-)
We are all glad you grew up. ;)
真是我需要的，感谢您的分享❤
Really noticeable that you haven't ironed your shirts.
Pushed up sleeves? No.
you nailed it - nicely
Leather jackets only with denim
What brand were the white jeans in the 3rd look?
Good
The pebble-grain wingtips at 4:22. Brand, please?
I love youtube. I can find literally anything on here.
Looking forward to being more presentable.
I really like the rugged look!
Of course, nowadays everyone can dress (and undress) as he wants... (I wonder how we can pass values to the new generations such as loyalty, honour and so, when we failed to explain them that thorn clothes are to be repaired or replaced, not to be worn...).

So what happens if one wants to wear something a little more causal let’s say a linen wind breaker? How does one coordinate?
What about the socks? White? lol obv not. right? how do you choose the socks?? lol left that part out lol
Would these looks be considered business casual? Or something else?
jacket lengths look too long in some of these shots as they make the legs look short
"Actually" work.
3:17
I thought you weren’t supposed to wear Balmoral shoes with jeans
# 4 was a bad look with rolled up sleeves
We’ll can’t suit jackets go well with jeans. They can be formal - just well cut. The best outfit was the formal jacket and distressed jeans 😂. All the others looked preppy and low grade.
Those belts are obviously are not a good choice for denim. In my opinion classic and wider style belts works best with jeans.
idk I kinda liked the look of that tie on the white shirt with that blazer, that actually looked really good to me. For a more upscale look that is.
Antonio! Some simple constructive criticism. I have no idea who Thomas is. Your channel is best if it is you doing the narration. We come here to listen and watch you do RMRS, not Thomas. Keep it simple. Keep it yours.

@ Antonio Thank you for the reply. Good to know. He did a good job. I was not aware. I have been subscribed for a while now and enjoy your videos. Semper Fi.
Never ever skip a belt when wearing jeans. Even if you don't need one. Never do this.
Well you’re more succinct at least. Last time the channel did exactly the same topic it was 11 minutes🤣
You can roll your sleeves up with a shirt, not with a blazer! It looks tacky and it losses the original style!
Luv you guys really do but gotta say I don’t like the blue jeans and navy blazer… looks like a mismatched suit from a distance… just not feeling it…
This is how I dress when I fly. It's sill comfortable, and I have the jacket pockets for electronics, usb cords, and snacks. Best part is that I don't look like the douche next to me wearing sweatpants and a neck pillow!
It's a bird. It's a plane. It's Super Thomas. Always to the rescue with ways to help us look our best. : )
Super Thomas for the win!
Super Thomas my ass. That is a ghost. Have you ever seen some sun?
RULE #6 - As seen in all of the looks shown, make sure that your shirt placket, belt buckle and fly of your jeans are all in a STRAIGHT LINE! If this is overlooked, it will ruin your perfect outfit. Fantastic video!!! Straight to the point, and the different outfits give great style guidance. Go kill it, gentlemen!
can i wear a henly shirt insted of a csual dress shirt?
Absolutely. You gotta keep that gig line straight.
Get that "gig line " straight, Boot.Veterans will get it.
It only took getting chewed out once for me always have my gig line straight.😂
Love how attentive you are to the details - those fabric patterns and different outfits - great job!
Sorry man..never cuff your jeans, even with boots. Nothing screams, I’m a tool like cuffed jeans.
Good video but I disagree on the Presidential Fold pocket square. It’s too formal for Jeans and a blazer. I have an olive corduroy blazer with brown elbow patches...it goes great with a pair of jeans.
I also have an olive corduroy blazer - no elbow patches though, but I would consider adding them - and I think it looks fantastic with jeans. I have actually got a LOT of compliments on it
Hint when washing dark jeans always use cold water and never place them in a dryer. Let them air dry on a hanger and they will stay dark for many years. Not digging the white pant outfit or the light color blazer. I prefer a darker jacket and pant.
Or throw em in the freezer
That's not a hint all you have to do is read the tag even though some say tumble dry on low my intuition tells me to air dry
Yeah but if you want jeans hard as sand paper go ahead.
Let them air dry then a short med low temp cycle with a fabric sheet.
You can dry them in dryer. Turn them inside out, dry medium, but damp dry setting. Then hang over a chair or something for half a day. 100% drip-dry would take forever here in Oregon.
I think this can be summed up by: "Dress up the jeans, Dress down the jacket".
Thomas must be a superman! :DDDDDDDDDD "Sleeps in a blazer and jeans!"
IRON THOSE DANG SHIRTS PLEASE
Peal snap shirt black caiman belly cowboy boots wrangler cowboy cut jeans and a Resistol.
I would only wear black jeans with a blazer
Hmmm. I’ve never seen anyone roll up the sleeves of a blazer.
OMG! No one rolls up their blazer sleeves anymore..........😲
This is a very well conceived video. Good rules. I have worn this look before, and it works if the fit is done right.
I hate to see a man wearing a suit jacket as a blazer. It NEVER works!
Such a good point! I’ve been guilty of the ‘orphaned suit jacket’ and jeans combo in the past, it doesn’t look good. Blazers need to be their own thing and not just taking one half of a suit jacket, the texture and structure point is really important.
Having said that, you can get some nice suit jackets for cheap when they’re being sold off because there’s no trousers etc., worth using them paired with smart trousers for a more relaxed Italian ‘spezzato’ style - I find this a great alternative to a full suit in the summer.
Terrible combinations!
The jackets are all too long, making your legs shorter as well as looking like you used the jacket of a suit rather than a sports jacket.
Also the jackets are way too roomy. But maybe that's how Americans like their jackets...
The colors are way too ton-sur-ton. Go more contrasting on the dark blue jeans
Never knew texture on blazer play such important role, still have so much to learn. Thanks for the info. Great job!
Such blazers can quickly look shabby though
Two bits of advise DO NOT bring this look for a corporate job interview ever. Also do not show up for an interview without wearing socks. The interview is over before you sit down. Your first impression is made as you walk in the door.
Don't be stupid and ridiculous. Men that really knows how to dress never wear blazers with jeans and tennis shoes.
Thank you for making this. I want to adopt this style.
Go for it!
Great video Thomas! Really appreciate all that examples. I have a week packed with business meetings and I'll be wearing one of those outfits. You put the viedo out at the right time.
Outfit number 4. What's with the rolled up sleeves?
Not gonna ever see me roll up sleeves on a jacket. That's grotty.
Never, ever wear a blazer with jeans. Problem solved.
Not a fan of pocket squares when pairing a blazer with jeans.
Maybe it's just me but I think all of the featured looks are clumsy and unattractive.
I like the basic look of a casual sport coat with jeans but not in these combos.
two cents
I think it's because the jacket is too long, but i can't figure it out quite well. But something is definitely off
I only liked about a 1/3 of the outfits, certain things in each outfit throws it off. You are not alone.
Dont ever cuff/roll your jeans. Looks so weak.
You probably rock skinny jeans
The weekend vibe looks so damn good
Definitely adopting this
Sounds like a plan!
All perfect with just a single thing out of place... match your metals, if you are wearing a gold tone belt buckle make sure your blazer buttons are gold tone (if metal) and your watch is gold tone, a silver tone watch looks out of place with all gold elsewhere. Kind of like matching your leathers with shoes and belts.
I noticed that too and cringed
Not feeling number 4. Rolled sleeves light colour blazer?.. Way too 80's.
Capos dress differently from the Don
Cuffed jeans will always look ridiculous to me.
This is brilliant! Is there a video like this but for how to dress up denim jackets? If not, that'd be great!
And don't be fat lol I probably got to lose about 50 to 75 lb before I can pull this off....
Rolling up the jacket sleeves is ridiculous.
Also, I keep hunting for ‘Unstructured Blazers’ … ie jackets without the internal lining … that makes it wearable on not so cold days …
Those can be hard to find. They actually call for a higher quality of tailoring because the stitching can't be hidden behind the lining.
Very sorry, at my boarding school many boys wore jeans with their school blazer and school tie, and all my life I have used the combination. My favourite has always been blue jeans (not too dark), well-polished shoes, a shirt with French cuffs, a dark blue double-breasted blazer with black buttons, and a silk tie/bowtie. Many other combinations, of course, including a T-shirt with my jeans and blazer. Wearing ripped jeans with a blazer is not a question of too casual since ripped jeans are not an item in a well-dressed person's wardrobe.
ANSON BELT RULESSSS, yall can notice the difference right away
Necktie and jeans is Zack Morris from Saved By the Bell. Stop that. Forever. That being said, bark blue blazer with dark blue jeans, especially skinny jeans, is just a Millenial suit. Wrong. Never. Yes, dark jeans. But always an obviously different jacket. Black, grey, charcoal, any pinstripe, chocolate, etc. And shoes as needed based on the colour combinations already made.
patch pocket blazers are so "pedestrian"... c'mon man....Where's Antonio? He sign off on this?
That is NOT a blazer, that is a suit jacket, a blazer is a single coloured jacket, usually with patch pockets, that ALWAYS has metal buttons.
Do some research before trying to advise in style.
Jeans never look good with jeans, in my view. Ever. Always looks mismatched and forced, to say nothing of hackneyed given the inexplicable popularity of the look. There are lots of trousers out there that look a thousand times better with jackets. So make a decision: jeans or jackets. But never both.

Distressed Denim/Clothing is the WORST. Never pay money for clothes that look like someone else has already worn them out.

No, I dont. Bluejeans are a fashion atrocity. Worn, torn clothing is Not fashion. A red tie does not match a blue jacket. My eyes cringe in public.
please stop with the term sports coat. It's a blazer, most people have never even seen a sports coat in person. But a sports coat would be a lawn jacket, or a rowing jacket. It wouldn't be anything you would be paring with every day cloths
Happy to realise that my instincts about jeans and blazer are spot on.
And finally as my dad use to say ‘It’s ok to go unshaven if you are not wearing a tie(or conversely, when wearing a tie always shave (unless you have a formal beard… stumbles are a strictly no-no with a tie))
unshaven usually looks scruffy
@@redf7209 it does….. that’s why a strict no-no when wearing a tie
your jeans are puddling. and skip the high contrast yellow orange stitched jeans with a blazer
Everything her looks clumsy and unsophisticated. The information is correct but the visual is not up to par.
Please stop rolling jeans up.
And don't wear those awful cheap light brown/tan shoes with it. So many men wear cheap shoes 👞 and never get them repaired when the heel is knackered and worn down.
Don’t wear jeans to a job interview. Wear socks and a tie. These are a must if the salary you are competing for is over 80k
I agree with all but the white jacket with rolled up sleeves. Too ‘80s “Miami Vice”.
Jeans never look good on jacket..it gets you a middle aged person look. one needs to wear chinos..but narrow fit....
The way to wear jeans with a sports jacket is over your own dead body. The jackets that go with jeans are e.g. leather, Harrington.
