    I’ve worn a pair of Crockett and jones Alex whole cut in chestnut brown with dark indigo fitted Jacob cohen jeans, both paired with a light pink casual shirt and mid blue linen jacket. I’ve had nothing but compliments from people. Sometimes it’s good to stand out from the crowd if you have the confidence. Subtle rule braking can be liberating! Love your content

    Fashion says very little about wealth. I absolutely agree with you about class, manners and respect. The fact is, wealthy people don’t give two ***** about wasting money on fashion. A true gentleman doesn’t display their wealth.

    there's always room for a simple pocket square, in a presidential fold to complete the look - you weren't gonna 'overwhelm' any viewer with that addition - don't overthink it, just plug in a pocket square in there every time you wear a suit or a blazer - if you think the outfit's busy enough already, then just stick to a simple pattern n colour, coupled with a plain fold on the pocket square and off we go 👍🏼 cheers!

    Re. Gordon Gekko. For those of us who were alive then, that blue shirt with contrasting white collar, the revival of suspender wearing, the tie bar... all that stuff was big then, a mix of elements that had been on the back burner during the '70s.
    GQ was pushing that look heavily, and prior to the internet, magazines actually had some cultural influence.

    AWESOME !!!!!! haha You answered one of my questions I wondered about and didn't ask. The pocket-square does not need to be the same shade of same colour ! I had a different blue pocket-square than my tie, and I worried. It looked really good actually, better than if they were the same! I figured the same shade & colour are distracting one from the other, but still I wondered about that issue, if I was breaking the rules of style/etiquette, but your notes are great assurance I was right afterall

    Hey James, I believe that a tea out of tea bag is also kinda a style mistake. I guess that as a gentleman you need to fill your life with things of quality and style. And the tea bag just isn't that. Try puer tea for example, or some tieguanyin tea instead. I'm sure you'll find much more pleasure in those beverages. Don't take it as a criticism, bur rather a friendly advice. Great content by the way!

For example I am ok with spending some money on style and outfits, however I cannot be bothered to go to stores, try on clothes, think about fashion etc., just don't have the time for that. I think many men feel the same way I do.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with over-dressing your shoes. I think closed-lace leather shoes can look great with a nice pair of jeans. But casual shoes, or shoes that are poorly maintained, will certainly ruin a dress ensemble.
    One lesson I have learned as a suit fitter is that not everyone needs the slimmest possible suit that will fit their body. Tall, muscular men look great in a classic-fitting suit, because a slim-fit suit will over exaggerate their proportions. This is also true for older men, even if they are in the best possible shape for their age. The right fit should drape gracefully from the shoulders and through the body.

    Over-the-calf socks, ONLY. Static cling with wool trousers? When you're wearing the socks, apply a swipe of hand lotion, sun block, or something like that, to the socks. Or, before donning your socks, give them a quick spray of your deodorant or similar spray.

    Even if you wear expensive dress shoes ,make sure they're polished. All two often I've seen well dressed men letting themselves down with dull or scuffed shoes.
    It may be a chore, but shoe polishing is an art and should be treated as such. That means no using the liquid polish with the foam applicator, it's silicone-based and damages the leather.

    Before I hear the style mistake, I'm going to guess it's either cheap novelty socks, or bad shoes.
    Edit: Eh, I was close, cheap socks, but for a different reason.
    First time I wore over the calf socks it felt unusual, but I got used to it within an hour and now there's no strange feeling, if they're well made then they're not uncomfortable at all, in fact they feel more comfortable than cheap socks bunching up around your ankles.
    The worst thing about the matching tie and pocket square faux pas, is that when regular stores contribute to that mistake with their tie/pocket square box set, it convinces the uninformed person that it's the correct way, rental suit places do it as well for ease of replacement and colour coordination, but it just cheapens the whole outfit when someone does it.

    I agree with your observation about the people dress in Paris conspired to people in the USA. Actually I think most people in Europe dress better than people in the USA.
    However, you fail to mention one major fashion mistake. That is wearing suspenders and a belt. Actually, I don’t think a man should wear a belt with a suite. A man should have either side adjusters or wear suspenders with a suit. A related fashion mistake is wearing a navy suite with a brown belt.

    I was waiting to see if you would address footwear. I think a terrible faux pas is when a man looks stunning. Has the correct fitting suit, pocket square, tie, belt etc and as your gaze drops he is wearing an old pair of unpolished shoes. This is a huge mistake and one that I see very often. In my book a new suit requires a new pair of correct dress shoes and I totally agree about sneakers with a suit or no socks with a suit. Absolutely terrible.

      If your gf finds you attractive with a more significant beard, that’s a lucky thing. I really dislike shaving: doing it carefully takes CONSIDERABLE time, and my skin gets very red and irritated: sometimes even with a new blade. My covid beard was ZZ Top, and I looked VERY hillbilly, as you say. Even trimmed and groomed, that beard made me look like a crazy man, & not at all like a hipster. Cultural norms seem to shine a spotlight on our beards. In Taiwan and Japan, some artists and creative types will wear a beard, but EVERY single Taiwanese or Japanese woman I met said directly-to my bearded face-“Shave that. You’re absolutely RUINING any ‘handsome’ you have.” [Extended talk:] “Just by being a foreigner (Westerner), you attract people’s gaze. I’ll happily walk about with a handsome, clean-cut, foreigner on my arm. And that’s not nothing, because people in the neighborhood WILL wonder what I’m up to: they’ll think positive things, bad things, jealous things, racist things… I’ll put up with that because I know you’re a gentleman, and I legitimately like you. But with the beard ? Most of us East Asian girls just don’t like it. And it gives the ‘eccentric artist’ look, which isn’t a far cry from your Western ‘mad scientist’ look. So, please: shave off the beard.” A few days later at the airport in Istanbul, I noticed more than a few guys give me a respectful “chin tilt up” hello, and I got a few positive comments on my considerably full & long & naturally copper beard. Different culture. Istanbul was a layover. The beard got mixed reviews in South America. My date sent me to a fancy men’s spa in São Paulo. Ostensibly that was supposed to be a relaxing spa day; massage, mani + pedi, beer, a facial….and time with the barber. Me-thinks she wanted the beard removed. Cultural ?

    The only thing i wanna critique is the idea of tailored shirts. Idt its much of a big deal, and i look at it from the mentality that, let us figure a man has multiple shirts, from Tees to Dress shirts and everything in between. Say this man has also been dieting and even hitting the gym in an effort to try to lose weight, or hell, even on the opposite end, lets say he gains some weight from bulking up or something, stress, poor dieting, lack of exercise bc of some change in his routine and lifestyle. My point is, assuming his weight might fluctuate over time long term, tailoring is therefore not an option if he will own these garments for a long while, and even could cost more money in the long run as then he is tailoring something to specs and then having to either get it redone or throw it away, bc it now no longer fits properly and is either too lose or too tight. And, as a man myself who has both at times gained weight from stress and dietary changes, and currently has been toning up and losing weight this past year (down about 18 or so from October 2023 while at the same time building muscle), I dont think it is something i want to worry about. Now if u have the money to do it, do whatever u want, you are ultimately your own person, but with this more long term ideology in mind that our bodies can fluctuate over time, i disagree with that point and think as long as any outfit fits comfortably, assuming u know how to style yourself otherwise and it brings you confidence wearing it, u deserve to own it and strut ur stuff. if the shirt is visibly baggy, toss it. If the collar is too loose or too tight, toss it. But dont frivolously toss money out the window buying or tailoring your stuff if u are currently in the process of losing weight. Once u get to where u are happy, maybe consider a wardrobe update, but just be smart with ur money and dont stress yourself out over how u look and ur progress bc that will hinder your results.

    I kind of disagree with James. He models his look off of Cary Grant but I love Humphrey Bogart. When I ware a suit I alwase use a pocket square etc. The problem isn't the accessories that you ware. It's how the 'whole' outfit comes together. You can ware accessories but the tie, pocket square and cufflinks must be toned down allowing the suit itself to be the fashon statement.
    Your shirt must be pale and your suit darker. And your tie must be the focal point of the whole look. With the pocket square and cufflinks adding the extra flare.

    I attended a wedding where the groom and groomsmen wore black tuxedos (good) with black hi-top Converse sneakers (bad!). I suppose the sneakers were a memento that can be worn long after the wedding. Also, I've noticed years ago that former pro athletics were wearing super tight suits trying to suggest that they are still in supreme fitness, rocking the Superman look with bulging muscles.

    I thought you were going to say bicycle clips.
    However, he should be wearing them, or he will have oil on his trousers.
    Good video but ruined by the crass advertisement for socks.
    Not what a gentleman would do.

    After buying a thrift-store sewing machine and a few TH-cam videos, I can do a little tailoring for shirts that are a close fit. Sometimes, I might be guilty of over-accessorizing, but I call it Sprezzatura when I wear a bunch of bracelets and necklaces. It gets plenty of compliments. And, I wear black leather oxfords with a black leather jacket. If it's the right leather jacket, you can do it.

    I must admit that the mistake that floors me is men who wear braces AND a belt at the same time. A phobia that their pants are going to fall down? If you are that nervous, please stay home and definitely out of sight.
    And gentlemen, try to spell correctly. You can look ignorant. You do not "ware" clothing, you WEAR them.

    I can see you as very elegant young man but drinking the tea with the tea bag hanging out of the cup looks strange.
    Un elegant man drinks the real tea on the and not the tea bag.

    Saggy socks = sign of a rank amateur fashionista, ahem, 'man'. Got it.
    Next video: how you, as a gentleman, can easily identify another man that had the audacity to not moisturize his face and hands prior to leaving home...yet another patently amateur move, clearly.

      I noticed as well, and this makes a good point that going deep into what a gentleman is can cross the line into opinions and preferences. Maybe an obvious unsuitable tie is his act of rebellion or a conversation starter? But yes I hear you 🌴

    Only Jesus saves from hell. Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again the third day (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV). We have redemption through His blood (Ephesians 1:7 KJV). Water baptism DOESN'T save us (1 Corinthians 1:17 KJV). We are saved by grace through faith, not our works (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV).

      Jesus was the son of a donkey show ho and the ass she rode in on, that’s why he was born in a BARN. Mary made it CLEAR she wasn’t into human men.
      Why do you exalt that nonsense?!

      1 Peter 3:21 KJV: The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience before God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

      ​@@bradleygrissom5971it doesn't say that water baptism saves the soul, it says that water baptism saves from a bad conscience toward God.

    Love your style tips and flaws! 🫶🏻 These apply to women too! We over-accessorize, looking like vulgar Christmas trees, we wear sneakers with everything and our socks slip too.
    Coco Chanel is quoted to have said; “before leaving the house, look at yourself in the mirror and remove one accessory.”
