Let's bring back fountain pens as well.
Capital idea! I’ve been using fountain pens for over 20 years, and they are definitely elegant and classy. A bit more effort than a ballpoint, but well worth it. And quality ones will last for generations. Like your watch, it’s something your grandchildren can appreciate owning later.
@@mph7282 Have you seen the ones from Santini? Probably my favorite brand even though I don't own any yet.
I've written almost exclusively with a fountain pen for roughly four years now. I love it. Can't go back.
@@mph7282 Have you seen Santini pens from Italy? Take a look, if you haven't.
i've always though i was just lazy for disliking to write. because my hand would give me cramps, and my writting was pretty ugly. until i started using fountain pens. it was a lifesaver.
“A well dressed person,
Is a sign of Good Manners.”

Indeed!
Manners maketh the man
Manners maketh the man.
Not in my case..
I agree! Confidence with manners.... A winning combo.
1. I am older and retired. As a young man, I went to Brooks Brothers. It has a custom tailoring unit. See a style on the rack. Get fitted in all dimensions, choose the material, options like functional buttons on cuff or whether you want a vest. Went and bought multiple and identical paris of British businessman's shoes. The quality of what I bought is that I still have some and they appear brand new.
Eventually, I followed one of the tailors who left Brooks Brothers and who opened up a shop in San Marino, CA.
I bought Dress for Success and bought the first of a number of tuxedos and wear them.
I partially raised a brother in law. He started at the bottom in the construction industry. Doesn't have a college degree. When he got to the point in construction that he had a trailer, I had him put a Brooks Brothers suit and dress shoes in the trailer so that he could go to meetings. It is years later. Tomorrow he is taking the train to Washington DC and doing business.
Outstanding.
My favorite accessory is a watch. I collect watches, and I love the idea of matching my wristwatch with my outfit. Whether it's a day by the pool or a night out with my wife, I love the idea of having the right watch for the occasion.
Absolutely I couldn't agree more
Yeah that‘s fun. As long as you stay away from the sold out brands like Rolex, PP or AP.
Yeah, even as a woman, I love wearing a hybrid smartwatch on my wrist! 🤔😊
Your videos are so nicely articulated my friend.
Thank you very much!
Couldn’t agree more about watches, they show a hint of class that a smart watch is incapable of producing. They also fit the simplicity model you described to a T..
Simple, higher end watch lasts and looks good anywhere. A good Rolex or Omega goes from a Brooks Brothers Suit to a wetsuit to shorts and wife beaters. Classic ones like Omega Speedmaster Professional is not flashy, classic, sporty enough fir all casual occasions, and iconic enough to look good under a dress shirt cuff. A Rectangular classic like a Classic JLC or Cartier is great but a good copy from Seiko or Bulova will pass just fine.
Keep the Casio G Shoks to camping trips or kayaking outings or BBQs.
Yeah, there’s even hybrid smartwatches that combine the best of both worlds! 🤔😁
AGREE! Its not actually cool at all to wear a G-shock or Apple watch. I like his advice here- keep those, but wear them in the gym.
If you are on a budget, don’t feel ashamed to buy second hand. Apart from sustainability, you can actually buy classy quality clothes - even brand new. So many people go on holiday and get carried away in fashion shops in e.g Milano, Paris, NY or London, spending all to much money. And when they get home, they compensate by selling it to a fraction of the original price. Don’t just by anything because it’s a good offer. Like buying new stuff, you must know, what you are after and must be selective with your purchases. But then you can get far using this road in combination with buying new stuff when needed.
This is especially helpful for those on a tight budget. I buy all of the slacks I wear to work from a local thrift store. Yes, I have to be selective, but it means spending $11-$17 for a pair of pants that I can wash at home and wear every week instead of $150 and need to have them dry cleaned. I bought lightly-used Allen Edmonds shoes from ebay, and rotate my shoes every day (don't wear the same shoes 2 days in a row).
Cufflinks are terribly underrated. Using shirts without link cuffs is a missed opportunity.
I inherited my father's late 1960s Omega Seamaster Cosmic wristwatch with a fine steel shark mesh Milano bracelet and paid $300 to have Omega in NYC clean it and replace the scratched crystal. Like many former military men and engineers of his generation, he always wore his watch with the face on the inside of his wrist; I do likewise in homage to him. Evidently, there is a practical reason for this: it prevents the crystal from reflecting the sunlight which could attract unwanted enemy attention on the battlefield, and it also protects the crystal from getting damaged. I think it also shows off the bracelet to great effect. I've had women remark about how I wear my watch differently than most men. Details are everything in fine style!
First, I'm 65, divorced with 20 & 13 year-old daughters, 5'5" with trim build, working full-time as a physician with retirement not in the cards, and live in a small city on the West Coast. My favorite accessory is my late father's 31mm Movado watch which he purchased ~1938 (though a 34mm Longines Master Collection watch with the lunar phase in on my wish list). I also have an A2 ("bomber") jacket. I usually wear a hat, either an Irish flat cap, or a brown Stetson cowboy hat (the "Bozeman"). Leather shoes or boots nearly always.
Quality boots are definitely my tip. They immediately elevate any outfit. They are far better for your feet than cheap boots. And they will last for decades with occasional resoles; in the end, a good $400 pair of boots ends up being much cheaper than a $150 pair that you will throw out in a year or two. My wife said to me decades ago: “I judge people by their shoes. It saves time.”
My favorite accessory is a Timex Marlin, new model, with gold accents and a honey colored strap. I have many more expensive watches than this, but this dressy, affordable timepiece from a legacy American company keeps finding its way back to my wrist.
Start saving up the game
An older gentleman told me all of this can be summed up by one thing, the goal of a gentleman is to make a woman look good. You don't want to upstage her but make her the star. She's the center of attention.
Great channel 👍 Finally classy advice from a classy young man. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, sir!
My favorite accessories are anything I can wear on my lapel. I used to wear printed tees to express what's important to me. When I started dressing nicely, I found that lapel pins were a more mature expression of these things. On top of that, people ask about them and it can get some conversations going. My collection includes a French flag (sister in France, a cross (religious symbol), dove with the word scholarship (area of ministry I serve in), autism ribbon (I'm on the spectrum, a submarine (my dad served on a submarine in the navy), a Texas flag cut into the shape of the state (where I live), a pink cherry blossom (my favorite boutonniere, and the fleur-de-lis (sister in France and friends in New Orleans).
That's a very good idea! I used to wear band T-Shirts a lot to express my personality and a lapel pin is the most elegant and refined way I think you can do that! It might even merit a whole video in the future, so thanks for sharing!
Greeters at Wal mart like that accessory. 😅
The Seiko classic looking watch is my main accessory. On special occasions I will wear a diamond ring that was my fathers. More to remember him and his style than to show off. It's a simple ring nothing flashy that says look at me. I always have a pocket square when I wear a suit. Thanks Grams for teaching me her majesty's etiquette.
2 videos less than 24 hours apart? We’re getting treated like kings haha
I watch a lot of TH-cam. This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in a long time. Great presentation. Thanks.
Thank you, sir. That means a lot to me
Excellent vid. I recently traded in my cheap Casios for a Citizen diver that is powered by ambient light of any source (unlike Seiko). It is practical, keeps almost as good time as the Casios, is discreet, but makes a quiet statement, and only cost $300. Plus, nobody in a hurry is going to cut my hand off to get this watch. In the year I've had it, only one person has commented, an attractive and nicely put together lady in my age group (I'm 75 ). She said 'that is a handsome and sporty wristwatch'.
My favorite accessory is a stylish watch. I own several, from black on black with a diamond to more 1950's style. Next is a tie pin.
Excellent and Outstanding Advice!!! Thank You!!!
I absolutely agree with you on the watch part. My favorite accessory has got to be my TAG Heuer Formula one Gulf Edition that was gifted to me by my wife. Not only has it high emotional value to me, but the blue fits extremely well with suits and the orange accents make it very playful, yet remaining classy and tasteful. That is when wearing a blue suit of course
My favorite accessory, after the watches, is a good, elegant and tiny pocket knife. I think all gentleman's need one of that, not just because it's very useful, but is also something that transmit you're a helpful and prepared person. This is a great value of a gentleman.
Brown to!
I would say, high quality could also be repaired and they age in a nice way, and looks better when a bitt worn then new stuff. Jeans and shoes the obvius ones ofcourse, but in generall. It is better to have 50 iterchangeble items you like then 3 closets of stuff you never were bought on sales!
Pocket squere is nice it can blend all your stuff togheter. Ties are much harder, but like a raw silk (strukture) could be nice!
Thanks!
If done tastefully men can wear more colors than greys blacks white and navy. It's a bit more work to match colors well, but when you nail the combination it adds such a beautiful touch to any outfit. The greys, dark blues and black are safe choices, but for the more adventurous adding colors into your wardrobe is a great choice
Great work bro
sorry, he doesn't like to be addressed as bro, bro
The rural American version of this is jeans or cargo shorts and high quality outdoorsman shirts (the kind with hidden pockets and flat colors). Suits definitely compliment a British accent well, however, for Americans, appearing to have some mastery over the wilderness is also classically masculine.
Great idea for a video
You come across very well in an informative manner
Keep it going
Thank you, Michael!
This was fantastic, Thank you.
You have excellent advice! Some of my thoughts: I own wooden watches. Highly recommend them for their traditional style yet unique nature. Never fail to get compliments. I wear flat caps all the time, so my style tends to be less formal. For colors: trousers - tan, navy, charcoal gray…no black; shirts - white, very light pastels (green, blue, pink and yellow); jackets - charcoal, tan and navy. I had a dark green (very dark) that was perfect for me. I have a lot of dark green in my wardrobe though it’s not for everyone. Patterns- only one. If your shirt is patterned, trousers and jacket are not. Patterned shirts with patterned suits are an abomination. An exception: a very faintly patterned suit (color on color) with a mildly patterned shirt OR tie is okay. My brother calls it 1.25 patterns. I’m okay with that too. I like suspenders- leather with metal fittings. Antique brass is my favorite. Gunmetal next. Silver then black. I’d rather go to work naked than wear bright brass. That’s just me. No objections to it on principle. But have the metal work match the belt metal work. Those accessories are among the least expensive and last the longest. I wear loafer style shoes. Black and dark brown, simple in all regards. Oxfords if I need to go uptown a bit (rare for me). For ties, I prefer solids, color on color patterns or - my fave - paisleys! Low contrast colors on paisley ties work brilliantly. For materials, I’m okay with blends that favor natural materials. Cotton shirt. Wool suit. Silk tie and kerchief. Wood watch. Leather shoes. Id also put a plug in for self care. Keep weight down and muscle tone up. Make it easier on your tailor. Always have a pen , knife and lighter on hand. Own nothing that is not a joy to wear. Be at home in your clothes. I see so many young men dress for an interview that are clearly uncomfortable in their outfit. Even if it’s slightly awkward underdressed, wear what makes you feel confident. That’s my short course on fashion. If anyone reads this far, thank you.
I'm on the West Coast of Ireland reading this well written advise. You have excellent taste of colours my friend, thank you. Ģod bless.

@@owengreene382 thank you! Greetings from the State of Maine!
I enjoy wearing automotive themed lapel pins on my sport coats, Most are vintage pieces. I drive Jaguars and am a member of a British car club so it makes perfect sense to those who know me that I should wear them. Men and women often take notice and a conversation about the pin or my cars ensues. I always wear a wrist watch. I own several styles so I can match them to the shoes or belt I am wearing.
My two favorite accessories are my great uncle’s longines pilot’s watch from WW2 (fully restored) and my Annapolis class ring.
Hello, I have just come across your channel and now subscribed. Loved the presentation.
You're getting better and better every video🙏
Quality channel and quality content!
As someone who likes to collect a lot of stuff it's hard to choose one favourite thing but I think my favourite is my flat cap with houndstooth pattern, it's from brixton maybe an idea for an upcoming video.
Thank you! That's a cool accessory. From Brixton market or a store there?
@@Gent.Z Brixton is the name of the brand
@@sallysbananenrepublik3740 ah ok!
Was showing this to my kids and enjoyed it. Bonus was seeing my dad’s shot of Paul Newman in Masada. Well done.
Something I get a lot of mileage with is fabric choices. I live in Canada and all the men wear a “uniform” of puffy jackets over jeans all winter long but if it’s not too cold out I’m in chinos, wool turtleneck and a very expensive wool bomber jacket (that I got on sale) in navy. Then black leather winter shoes and gloves, scarf and cap.
Anything is better than the dreaded 'Canadian Tuxedo': a denim shirt tucked into blue jeans with a jean jacket and a pair of sneakers! Egads!
Agree about wearing boots... they are less formal and perhaps more masculine than donning a pair of Oxford Toe Caps.. My favourite accessory is my IWC Pilot's watch, which I bought 10 years ago...I wear an old military watch most of the time, but bring out the IWC every now and again.. A tailored jacket is also worth investing in, even if worn with a cheap pair of chinos, or jeans... the jacket will stand out.. I'm particularly fond of The Huntsman semi tailored Jackets...
I wholeheartedly agree that a watch is the only fashion accessory the classic gentleman needs. You can have one watch, three, five, or dozens (that part is up to him. There’s advantages to each approach.) but more accessories means less classic in the look. I could be persuaded to add a nice quality pen.
A sharp understated watch is imperative to a well-dressed man. Tudor Pelagos diver, Baume & Mercier Capeland, Rolex Explorer, Omega Speedmaster, Tag Heuer Carrera.....all watches that are elegant, yet can be dressed up or dressed down.
I like style and always wear a suit. Believe me, the crowd makes way when I am walking. That is the power of dressing up!
Spend thr money and get it altered to fit you. Have the proper pant hemmed, one break over the instep. Have the sleeves done so its eight to your wrist bone and no longer. The waist pinched in a bit. It looks like a million bucks. It can make an off the rack suit look custom made. I routinely spend $150-$200 on alterations on every new Brooks Brothers Suit and it looks fantastic. I also have suspender buttons sewn in and wear "braces" (suspenders are for farmers, braces are for gentlemen). When I shed my suit jacket, I'm one if the very few wearing braces and it looks so classy. And buttons. No clips. Clips are for farmers.
As a retired deputy DA, a power suit sets the atmosphere, and as you say, they part to let you pass.
There are many great accessories for a gentleman. If you don't like a tie, you can always add a cravat or an ascot. They are not as tight around the neck.
I couldn't agree more about the watch as a great addition to ones wardrobe. Keep it simple with a mechanical watch
My Tag Heuer F1 bracelet watch, it goes with everything
My gold Cartier tank is my favorite accessory. I have more a couple more expensive watches, but I also go back to my gold dress watch.
My favoriet accessory is a pair of silver cuff links I picked up in the sacred valley during my trip to Peru. I unfortunatly dont get to wear them often but they remind me of the people and memories I made there.
Excellent conversational piece. I have one or two true French cuffs with cuff link holes to use cuff links. I normally use knotted silk cuff links but metal o es are so classic.
Not no tie tacs or tie clips. A tie bar across the collar is retro cool but no tie clips or tie chains.
Great video and content. Well done.
Thank you very much for great Videos ! Many greetings from Germany !
Well done. Good, solid, simple rules.
I grew up with the Cary Grant style as a major role model that is as timely today as it was decades ago.
I recently bought a pair of Viberg Service Boots in their 2030 last.
The derby-style boots were first made for members of the Canadian Air Force during WWII, borrowed from earlier English military boots used during WWI.
The leather is calfskin from London's famous tannery, C.F. Stead. They are fully anilined dyed in what they call Winter Smoke, which is a dark black/brown color that looks like motor oil.
Expensive, classic, distinctive and very versatile from casual to dressy. Taken care of properly, they'll last a long, long time.
One of my favourite accessories is the enamel badge I also use as my avatar. Whenever I wear a coat or sports jacket it adds a pop of colour to the fabric. Women often comment on it, both young and old, but never comment on my expensive watches. The devil is in the detail.
great video man!
This was very helpfull, I subscribed immediately
Thank you! That’s great to hear. I will be doing a follow up to this soon! And a video breaking down some life lessons from Sir Sean Connery
@@Gent.Z nice i'm looking forward to it
Most definitely a wristwatch. I don't feel right unless I'm wearing one. The Seiko 5 line has many designs and sizes to choose from and are relatively affordable. Same with Citizen. Can't go wrong with either.
Don't forget to match your shoes to your belt, and the belt hardware to your wristwatch. And yes, if you have belt loops on your pants, ALWAYS put a belt in them!
My IWC GST coronagraph.. 20+ years and still rocking!
I am always amazed at how women notice a man's shoes. Yes, I do consider shoes, be it formal or casual and I do agree with quality over non-quality. In fact, I have a pair of Bally loafers which I've owned for over 30 years and still wear them and still receive complements about them.
Quality was about the shelf life of clothes. You bought quality for life and in in those day, back then, you didn’t expect to live long. I’ve had shoes for 40 years….still here by the way.
Bro ik this may sound strange but you should do a video about superman. Reason is cos he's known to be the most beloved hero and he's an inspiration to humanity itself, very humble, modest, humility, love, compassion and gentlemanly behaviour. Even a kid feels safe cos they know it's superman and that's due to his traits.
Also do a video about muhammed ali and why he's the GOAT. He's called the greatest for a reason so I'm sure he deserves a spot for a gentlemen
Thank you for your suggestions! They’re both a little off my radar but I will look more into them both for sure
@@Gent.Z what's a classy gentleman according to you when it comes to style, suave sophisticated, grace, poise, humility, treating ladies well and so on..
Wtf
0:33 Well, I actually wear suits and fedora hats most of the time. Not at work (I'm a painter) but definitely during leisure time. I've done so since I was about 16 years old.
Also I only wear pocketwatches instead of wristwatches.
I wear a suit often for work and I’ve come to feel a bit naked if I’m not wearing a hat
@@Poodleoop I can totally understand that. 🙂
Good detox from this alpha beta sigma childish things all over the internet
Thank you!
My favourite accessory is a pair of gold cufflinks which belonged to my grandfather
I’ve seen some fascinating choices in watches in business situations….younger directors being flash with a Rolex Submariner, more mature and senior directors rocking a solid gold JLC Reverso and Chairmen worth tens of millions wearing…..a Casio 😂. Negative snobbery can be the biggest flex!
Many modern men never polish their shoes. It's essential and pretty enjoyable too.
I have several watches with different face colors that I can match with outfits. My favorite is a Hamilton Navy Scuba 300 meter dive watch. It's on a nice quality metal bracelet, but I can also swap in a nato strap to dress it down as well.

How about style in films? The thin man films of William Powell, David Niven, Fred Astaire. Roger Moore in the tv series the Saint. Patrick Macnee as John Steed in the Avengers

You lost me at bomber jacket 😂
A classic brown bomber jacket is very nice. Don't buy cheap thin leather jacket that looks like a cross between a biker and a cheap used car salesmen. Buy a good quality like The Cockpit, cut from the same military patterns used in the US Navy or WWII Air Corp. They look great with blue jeans and high end cowboy boots nicely polished and well kept. No patches or silly logos, unless you're actually a Top gun graduate or a true WWII Flying Tigers veteran should you wear a bloodnchit on your back. If you donr know waht a blood chit is, just Google. They were sewn on the back of thr leather jacket promising a bounty for returning the pilot back to US lines.
Watch…buy a Seiko…my wife gave me a Seiko back in 1988…still works great. Bulova makes a nice watch that was very popular in the 1960s….
Hello, I really enjoyed your video. In terms of shirts I think the button down collar with chest pocket would be deemed rather casual, but (from what my Grandparent’s stated), a shirt with a good Classic Collar, without a chest pocket, is more formal - so perhaps more elegant overall. Perhaps a great compromise (not seen often enough imho), are shirts with cocktail cuffs, which add a Classic look, without requiring cufflinks - also, they can be rolled up, without losing your cufflinks!
This all comes down to simplicity. The more simple a piece of clothing is, the less casual it is. This is why a tux uses a point collar shirt and shirt studs instead of buttons. White Tie is the most formal and is a completely white ensemble under the jacket. A button-down collar has its place, but it is definitely one of the most casual button-down options.
How about thrift stores? You can find high-quality vintage outfits.
Don go there have some dignity
Good if u want to look like a retro hipster
Could you do a video on suede jackets of different types (bomber, trucker, classic etc.), and how they can be incorporated in the casual yet classic wardrobe? TIA
There’s a channel called Style OG that has a video on that topic. Give it a try, maybe you’ll like it.
More than wonderfull, I wear a classical Omega Seamaster given to me by my darling wife to be, when she was 19 years of age, me being 34, and she had counted coins to purchase - & now she is an EVP
Awesome channel, just subbed. Looking forward to your future content. May I ask who makes your jacket? The fabric and wide lapel look wonderful.
I think that you can add another accessory such as sunglasses. This will not only complement your style, but will also protect your eyes from ultraviolet radiation.
And thanks for the good video!
When wearing a sports jacket or suit I also wear a pocket watch with gold chain. Pin the chain behinds the lapel and drop the watch in the suits breast pocket. The watch a 100 year old antique watch.
Great video. 1. Time to fix my old Wittnauer watch. 2. I am nervous about Brooks Brothers. I bought a polo shirt there 3 years ago and it shrunk. Loved BB back when I was working. 8:09
Brooks brothers has a line of clothing that is sold in its factory outlets…totally different lines…very deceptive & lesser quality
Another nice video, thank you. As for interchangeability, the Italian spezzato is always a suitable and interesting chance. What about a video on this way of masculine dressing?
This style is all about breaking the rules of style. It is meant for those who are already so confident in their personal style that they can afford to flaunt the traditional rules. I think it comes naturally over time, but it not suited for the young beginner.
Classy guy👍
One accessory not to have is extra weight. Flat gut and no double chins. Not getting fat - especially as you get older is a key.
Well, then, I personally wear a lot of sweaters being from Canada, and feeling the cold quite acutely. I have a small collection of fisherman sweaters, single colors. I wear them with simple T-shirts during the winter. I get them from L.L. Bean as well as simple khakis. In the Summer I will wear collered shirts with an undershirt. I may start wearing occational tie
With ties, the key isn't so much the material, as how it's construction marries with the material: smaller tie knots look much, much better.
Thanks for the overview. I was wondering how can I tell what goes together? Could you make a video on this? That woudl be very much appreciated.
Some great points here! And nice blazer, where is it from if I may ask?
Thank you. Yes, it's from Brooks Brothers - go.shopmy.us/p-3385389
I wish that you make a video on how to dress classy in hot summer times.
I live in a country where it reashs 50⁰ degrees Celsius, so i would really appreciate a video on that topic.
I’ll definitely make one nearer the summer!
Why don't u just go to a proper mens shop .I'm sure they have knowledge of this problem
@@michaelstecyk7365 Unfortunately many in my country don't wear classic clothes on a daily basis, only on a interview or a wedding, so there's no such thing as a proper mans shop or an expert because it would be a lose for him for no one will buy a suit from him.
Favorite accessory is my Bulova Fly Me To The Moon Sinatra watch.
Watches. Absolutely. I primarily wear my Apple watch to the gym because when I see a 12 year old child wearing one with a glitter band, I think…ok a masculine watch is a must.
Solid video !
Dear Gent,
I think the nearest icon of style for me is Paddington Bear.
Frank.
great video!
At 71, you are exactly correct. Most men of all ages just too lazy to make any effort. Poor dressing is just accepted now; real shame. Thx!
I’m Gen x, and love your videos
Thank you, sir
I also have a seiko dive watch
Great vid, thanks! I have a terrific tailor and I treat her well. Find a good tailor, take your clothing purchases to them and experience the magic. Stay fit my friends, invest in your physical future.
Ahh but I have added Fedora’s when called for. Never fails to garner compliments
Gent Z 😂 Nice 👍
Learn to tie a tie, a proper silk tie with a classic 4 in hand, half Windsor, or full windsor, depending on the spread of the collar, with a proper dimple in the middle, and make sure the rear tail does not hand longer than the front head. If it does, untie and retie it. Ive gotten good enough to have rhe rear tail go fro. The apex of the front head to no higher than the fold point about 3 inches up. Cinch it up properly so ir doesnt look like you just came out of a bar.
And press and starch your shirt. PRESS YOUR TIES TOO. Flatten out all wrinkles so it looks sharp when you tie it on. I don't care if it says Perm-Press. First of all no gentlement buys permanent press shirts. They buy 100% all cotton, preferbly long staple egyptian cotton shirts. Never, ever buy blends. Never, ever buy anything shiny, or shiny stripes, called tone on tone. Solid color, solid texture. With removable collar stays. Learn to iron it properly.
Never wver buy those prematched tie and shirt in a box. You look like a JC Penney mannikin. Buy ties that match the shirt or set off and contrast the shirt so it looks clean and pops.
Solid colors work best. But subtle candy stripes in blue, red, yellow are fine. Button down collars are a.bit less formal that atraight collars. A fine oxford cotton shiet woth a button down collar shoukd hace a beautiful, roll on the collar when buttoned. Always look sharp and sophisticated.
Hey bro viewer from Korea, keep up the videos
Thank you!
