I think part of the reason shoes matter so much is because they indicate what the purpose of the fit is. Like if someone's wearing something formal and they have nice boots it's like "they probably have a business meeting or somehting" but if they have trainers on instead is like "they might be someone's boss but they want to be comfortable instead of trying to impress people cos they've got shit to do" that kind of vibe. And wearing nice boots instead of trainers with a more casual outfit it's like "oh they're not just hanging out they're actually going somewhere"
I think he had a bad example of jackets. Jackets can have the exact same change of vibe. Let's say you're wearing a formal outfit but then you have a bomber jacket. That makes the whole vibe more casual. Same for leather jacket. Or you have a casual fit then you wear a blazer. Makes it a bit more formal. Or you wear a street wear outfit then wear a long top coat. Makes it more dressy and sophisticated.
As a fashion and car enthusiast, I really like how you use "your shoes are the rims of the outfit." It makes a lot of sense, and reminds me to buy better shoes lmao
Ive been saying this, women have been getting clowned on for like 300 years about having too many shoes but they are the foundation of the outfit! Also going to harass my mechanic bf by calling his callipers the car socks, cheers mate.
@@shadrackakinkunmi but the quality is awful it’s not worth it, there are way better options out there and i adore dunks (the pandas are just overdone and the leather sucks)
@@shadrackakinkunmi Go for the Collegium pillar destroyer lows if you’re able to. Similar vibe to dunks but way higher quality. I have a couple of high pairs and they’re some of my favorite shoes.
Bro every time I see that frugal has post a few minutes of greatness once again, there's just some kind of excitement that hits different before I see the clip 😌🔥
Hey idk if ur gonna see this but I live in Maui and ong the fashion struggle is real😭 literally no stores for clothes and shipping costs billions out here💀 love the videos bro sick to see an islander doing good on TH-cam 🤙🏽
Agreed. Having been a sneakerhead for the longest time I had to realize some time ago that I Limit my Style big time If I'm hellbent on wearing Sneakers all the time
You're reading my mindddd! I was talking to my friend yesterday about how many times i feel like i don't like an outfit, only to tweak it a little... Fold the sleeves, open a button, put back my hair etc... And suddenly it looks better! I crafted a solid fit yesterday, but it felt like it wasn't working... Then i just push up the sleeves a bit, do a little half tuck... Voila! Perfect fit 👌 I feel so smart everytime I'm able to find some minor adjustment like this lol, like I'm hacking into the Matrix
Been thinking about this exact topic a lot lately. I see a lot of sneaker heads saying “nobody gives a fuck about your shoes in public” but it’s just bc they want to be recognized for hype shoes and they don’t know how to dress them. I hardly ever go somewhere where I am around a lot of people and don’t get a compliment on a piece my outfit (I think I just give off nice guy energy and I’m always smiling). And my shoes are totally the most common compliment. What they don’t realize is a $70 pair of shoes can make just as good an outfit as $250. It’s about how you use em. Gotta be creative and build around it correctly instead of just letting your shoes do all the talking and dressing like an NPC around it
you know i have literally nothing with clothing but this man makes it look like a goddamn documentary or sum fucking interesting. keep going my boy would become fashionista 10/10
Not gonna lie y'all for years I tried to put together cool fits and delve deeper into niche fashion and never loved the way I looked but then I realized - the best fit is yourself. Like Rick Owens said, "working out is the modern couture" and I had the clothes but not the body, so I started going to the gym and now I don't even wear super crazy shit like you see on the explore pages/tik tok but I get compliments cause I'm lean and built. I wish younger me had known about this before I spent $$$ on clothes and even reps (Cringing). Also helps to not be ugly but realistically there's only so much one can naturally do about that part so don't worry too much.
Once again frugal uploading another fashion relatable video, i have this problem every single time i plan an outfit and i always start with the kicks never the opposite, but sometimes i plan the outfit and already know what kicks i can wear with it so its type a win win until i try to find whats missing then im in trouble lol
yes dude, recently I had the same problem and I did an experiment. I took out a jacket that I thought didn't go with anything and put on other pants and everything started to fall into place like a puzzle
I know the moment I started wearing boots my style changed dramatically. Changes the vibes on simple fits, everything just looks cleaner. I kept telling my other friend to buy boots and once he did he said he had the same exact style revolution😂
They make you look taller, slimmer and look amazing with oversized sweaters/tops, I stopped wearing them as much a few years back because they seemed to be associated with reddit male fashion advice and conservatives, seems like they are going back in style which is pretty cool but I personally had enough of boots for at least a bit.
@@brandonalfaro42 I was lucky enough to thrift a pair of doc martens 1460’s. I’d say it’s a great entry level boot. It’s versatile to where I can wear it with casual outfits and more formal ones. For example, I would wear the docs with a sweater and jeans and the look would be more mature than if I were to wear dunks instead. At the same time I can wear the docs with khakis, a turtle neck, and a leather jacket, and have a more dressier/ formal look, without the docs looking out of place. There is a reason why they are as popular as what they are. Hopefully I explained that well and helped you out!
@@Mcdavidsburner wow thanks for the info and the explanation! And I was actually looking into buying a pair of 1460s and now you just convinced to go ahead and buy em. Thanks!
I’m not big into fashion but I appreciate it. I’m definitely a person who has 5 pairs of shoes MAX. (Which doesn’t sound like a lot but a live in a place with 4 seasons that actually change) Guess I’d have to invest to start.
Always start with the shoes and a jacket, and go from there with your style. The sky’s the limit! Ad in a waist coat and tie with a nice pair of jeans for like a more casual 3 piece suit look with a motorcycle jacket in place of a blazer, hell, get a post boy cap. But always make sure your outfit works and everything is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Dress to impress but do it for yourself first and others second, because chances are no one’s gonna give a shit what you’re wearing.
highschool and even some college me did that overhaul often. Now I just build my fits of what function I'll need out of them (starting with shoes of course)
I think shoes make this kind of difference because there are many shoe styles. Chelsea, sneakers, high boots, slides, formal shoes etc. If you’d change airforces for jordans, IMO the difference won’t be that strong. But Chelseas change the style. Changing a shirt or jeans doesn’t have the same effect because they have the same style. If you’d change a T-shirt for a white classic shirt it would make a difference. With cars-i think there are basically two elements: wheels and the rest. So changing wheels matters there for that reason.
I was at LAX yesterday and 1 out of 10 people I walked by were wearing a pair of pandas. Like... how is that OK to people that see everyone else in the exact same shoe? Is it like a secret members decoder ring or something?...
My style will always be vintage streetwear I wear nothing but flannels, band tees with sneakers because ik how to style them with the right colors and fits.

Eh, the message I get from formal with trainers isn't "I have things to do" it's "I'm kind of a tool"
@@LeadenMarshmallow middle age man trying to look young, like blazers with trainers

i genuinely despise fashion n have no interest in it at all but your videos are still amazing. thank you chris chan
idk when i started watching christian but it feels like hes always been there, bro is now the voice inside my head
He do be spitting facts tho.
Shoes can make or break an outfit. Plus the way you wear or style an outfit is also a variable to consider.

christian showing an a80 on te37's alone deserves a like, not to mention the r34 and the 240z
I’m convinced he brought back ironic fashion
This gotta b one of ur best vids yet 😭😭 comedic wisdom
i paused the video before the sponsorship so now my outfit will never go wrong 🧠
That rare RuneScape poison dagger lol I had that back in the day
