Onitsuka Tiger and Asics are the same company, Asics used to be known as Onitsuka Tiger in the sixties but it changed its name to Asics in the late seventies, and then rereleased their classic shoes under the revived Onitsuka Tiger. The modern Onitsuka Tiger is essentially a sub-brand of Asics that positions itself as a high-street brand, pretty separated from the rest of company.
These videos are so good. The whole channel, actually. I find myself coming back to so many looking for ideas. So entertaining and informational at the same time.
I Always get a weird sense of nostalgia and calm with your video's. I can't point out exactly why. It feels like hanging out with friends long gone on a friday night.
I'm from a time when Champion was what poor people bought. And I'm not into fashion, really; more into bags and pocket knives. I just watch your videos for the great storytelling (edit: ... and filmmaking and editing). And it keeps getting better. Happy New Year
This video is just you getting into more and more dangerous situations while talking about clothes. Idk how you would be able to remember everything haha
Great video as always! Such a strange coincidence, was talking to a friend who's not into good looking clothes and I was trying to change his mind. I just happened to show some pictures of Ludjero Martins and I said "Yeah everything just fits him so well" and now you're here saying the same thing. Wild!
Thanks for the Best Made recommendation. I normally think Duluth's stuff is trash but this stuff looks like what Orvis would make if it were a stylish company. Those shetland sweaters...tempting!
I like when you randomly drop Eminem bars. Holy Toledo, miss Ohio. We should be datin (Dayton), but she's from Cleveland. She's a Bengal, chick is catty. That's the shortest thing for a dress(address) since an addy (Cincinnati) That whole scheme was brilliant.
Really wanted to love the Orslow 107 but my legs are a curse. It definitely fits so great on skinny legs and long legs, and girls. Sized down on the 105 and it's more effort to break in at the waist but it's pretty great too. J.Crew also makes a heavy weight French Terry hoodie that's a fraction of the cost of the I&W.
Great video Michael. For graphic (or even plain) tees and hoodies I usually go for vintage 80'/90' pieces. You can sometimes find real gems in thrift stores or goodwill. Happy new year!
I had the same thought process as Michael when I started getting into style when it came to graphic tees. That I thought they were lazy or uninspired, but then I saw how Justin Theroux wears his vast collection of graphic vintage tees, and I’m definitely starting to come around to them.
Oh hey it's Theo from Theo & Harris! Joking aside, how am I now just finding out about Michael's own channel? I also love the similar aesthetics and quirkiness from the T&H channel.
@@TheIronSnail BTW, what is the best way to share my music portfolio? I was thinking maybe we can collaborate on your future projects?? I compose ambient stuff
Omfg Boa fleece looks so good, like you could wear it 4 weeks without changing. (It would only smell good in my mind ;/) & Onitsuka tiger shoes seem like they are so much more tho! Corduroy Peacoat is a must buy 4 sure! I think a colab between you and Jenni Elle would be off the chain. Cheers!
I bought the Taylor Stitch Whitney Parka and I would say it is very warm. Not warm enough to go to Antarctica but warm enough for everyday wear. At 650 fill, I have to unzip the jacket if I've been walking because it's that warm
Michael, I’m looking at getting the black Levis Sherpa jacket that you are wearing in the video. I have a medium cord (non Sherpa) that fits well but not sure if I should go up a size to compensate for the lining. Thoughts?
That freenote shearling you had sold was a winter coat... Maybe. With the new updates they've done, would you be interested in owning it again? Why had you gotten rid of it?
I bought my first pair of Bean boots for 10 bucks at TJ Maxx last week. I never liked the looks of them but now I wear them every single day 😅 Oh and I have the Filson rucksack now. You know. The one you and stridewise don't like 😂 It is unconfortable as shit but I still love it!
Damn you for exposing those Woolrich jackets. Seems like the prices have been inflated in recent months. Could be the winter season. Could be the inflation of all prices in general, I suppose.
Watched a couple of your videos and never heard you mention Ship John in Portland, Oregon. They make leather goods, waxed jackets and great tshirts. Check them out, I actually know a couple other really good local companies if you’re interested. All American made with great materials.
Nice video but I deeply suggest you to stay away from the Avirex (or Schott) B-6s, they’re quite bad as jackets and the sheepskin they’re made of is usually crap.
Destroy The World.....aka: The Iron Snail followers. Wow, lots of info in this video. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to find my world destroying pieces.
comment i could easily message you about but I'm choosing to publicly post: please continue to address everyone who views your online videos as "you people" i'm so serious

Well that’s one of the nicest compliments i could ever hope for!
At 9:48, it's a derby you were right the first time, oxfords have a close lacing system the ones you showed were an open lacing so they were derbies.

Well ty so much!
Looking forward to another year of great videos. Keep it up!
Ty!

Bahahahaha i try my best!
really good videos dude! love the editing and your humor man keep it up!
Ty my friend!
@@TheIronSnail great editing man ! hope to see your channel grow!

Love that the subscribers are going up 🙏🏼
(Same!)
Thanks for the Best Made recommendation. I normally think Duluth's stuff is trash but this stuff looks like what Orvis would make if it were a stylish company. Those shetland sweaters...tempting!
VERY! I love them! They used to make wool fleeces too and those were insane
There's still a fair bit of supply or maybe they just made more this season.
I’ve never really been a fan of messengers/briefcases, but that Gucci bag (at 2:16) alone converted me
Oh it’s insane!
Man this was a great video. Enjoyed the pieces and content. Good work my guy
Ty!!
Thanks for making such great content the last few years. Take care of yourself Mike.
PHIL thanks for always supporting me!
@@TheIronSnail YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME NOW.
The Iron Snail ebay effect is real. Everytime he mentions a piece of wear, the closing bid prices have been atleast £10-£25 higher
Are you planning on releasing an all black jean jacket? If so, I am sold.
OOooH yes!
Subscribed since 2k, happy to see the same quality on those videos and 13k subscribers! Way to go, Michael
hey ty!!
Great video as usual, Micheal!
Ty!!

Try buck mason sweatpants they are amazing in my opinion. They fade like jeans too
Oooooo okay i totally will!
@@TheIronSnail great if u get some let me know if u like them or feature them in a video if u want. I have 4 pair now
Hipster menswear, nice 👍
TY!
Great video. I am at the CC Canal right now, cheers from the Cape!
Cheers!
Amazing content mate, quickly becoming my favourite channel on YT. Videos on Japanese denim jeans and jumpers please lad 🤘🏽
Hey ty! And deal!
Usually which size you are wearing on the 3L Down Park ?
Thanks.
Great video. I would recommend homage t-shirts and sweats. Super comfy made in the us
Looking at them as we speak!
I have a pair of the moonstar all weather shoes, would definitely recommend them!
Good to know, I’ll try them!!
Really wanted to love the Orslow 107 but my legs are a curse. It definitely fits so great on skinny legs and long legs, and girls. Sized down on the 105 and it's more effort to break in at the waist but it's pretty great too.

I actually have a J. Crew one! (Well i think it’s their heavyweight)
@@TheIronSnail I have the heavy weight too! It’s called Waffle Lined lol. And it’s going for $25 right now 😍
Hey Michael!
What do you thing of Ghurka products?
Thank you!
Your stuff reminds me of Wes Anderson making clothing/fashion content, I love it
Thoughts on rag & bone?
The Todd Snyder x LLB boots are amazing
Couldn’t agree more!
These were all my favorite things of 2021 too
Great video Michael. For graphic (or even plain) tees and hoodies I usually go for vintage 80'/90' pieces. You can sometimes find real gems in thrift stores or goodwill. Happy new year!

the dark americana style vibes are fire
I'd be interested in what would recommend for a minimalist and affordable buy it for life wardrobe inventory. Would make a great video!
FULLY AGREE!
That vintage hartmann is stunning though. Thou i hate logos and stuff but great contrast right there to leather straps and handle
AGREED!
If every time u mention my brand RRL i could give u 2! likes….. i would! Happy New year my man and 22’ is gonna be a great year for you! 💪🏻
Ty! And for you too!
More color plz. Yellow 💛. Bright green 💚. Pink . Purple 💜. Light blue 💙. Red or orange 🍊.
Agreed!
Oh hey it's Theo from Theo & Harris! Joking aside, how am I now just finding out about Michael's own channel? I also love the similar aesthetics and quirkiness from the T&H channel.
HEY!!!
What about diemme balbi or anatra for duck boots?
I need to look into them!
WOOOOO THANKS FOR A GREAT YEAR
THANKS FOR ONE TOO
Snail's back!
BACK AGAIN
@@TheIronSnail BTW, what is the best way to share my music portfolio? I was thinking maybe we can collaborate on your future projects?? I compose ambient stuff
You have indirectly ruined my bank account w this video! Another great video!!!!
GOT EM!
Omfg Boa fleece looks so good, like you could wear it 4 weeks without changing. (It would only smell good in my mind ;/) & Onitsuka tiger shoes seem like they are so much more tho! Corduroy Peacoat is a must buy 4 sure! I think a colab between you and Jenni Elle would be off the chain. Cheers!
Onitsuka Tiger shoes are great quality and feel super old school but the sole is so flat and thin, even worse than regular Converse imo.
Love Jenni Elle!!
Did you check out the Uniqlo x White Mountaineering Collab? :) they did great fleece sweaters! Bought the Black one and its gorgeous :)
OH checking out right now!
@@TheIronSnail 😄👍🏼
Can’t wait for 2022 - the year I buy an iron snail jacket.
THE YEAR I FINALLY MAKE ONE!
I bought the Taylor Stitch Whitney Parka and I would say it is very warm. Not warm enough to go to Antarctica but warm enough for everyday wear. At 650 fill, I have to unzip the jacket if I've been walking because it's that warm
I might have considered getting a black one but I didn't love the colors they had
@@Stridewise that's fair. I don't wear black much but I loved the navy color
Mr. nick!
Oh good to know!
Michael, I’m looking at getting the black Levis Sherpa jacket that you are wearing in the video. I have a medium cord (non Sherpa) that fits well but not sure if I should go up a size to compensate for the lining. Thoughts?
I’d stick true to size! They open it up a bit for the Sherpa
@@TheIronSnail Yeah, ended up buying the medium. Thanks for getting back with me. Much appreciated.
Where did you got your Champion sweater which says Cape cot?
A store called Soft as a Grape!
Love those Orslows…
That freenote shearling you had sold was a winter coat... Maybe. With the new updates they've done, would you be interested in owning it again? Why had you gotten rid of it?
Definitely! I’ve even been in contact with them!
I am actually curious about the type of the jacket that you are wearing in the video!?!? Pray tell!!!!!!
I got those Moonstar alweather in all black. Really like them.
Oooh all black is a cool look!
@@TheIronSnail its slightly less 'odd' looking, lol. My wife gave them a compliment and those are hard to come by.
If you haven’t listened to the Todd Snyder Throwing Fits interview you should, some interesting insight and he seems like a very cool person
What are the boots with the white soles in the thumbnail though?
Yuketen Maine DB boots!
I bought my first pair of Bean boots for 10 bucks at TJ Maxx last week. I never liked the looks of them but now I wear them every single day 😅
Oh and I have the Filson rucksack now. You know. The one you and stridewise don't like 😂 It is unconfortable as shit but I still love it!
Hahaha i still use mine constantly! We’ll learn to love it
You gotta check out KATO jeans. They are awesome and are made of Japanese denium. Mine have lasted 5 years without a sign of damage.
I love Kato!
that's the thing.. when garments are priced /reasonably/, the labour must be cheap then..
merry Christmas Mickey!
Merry Christmas xoxUnD3R0aThxox!
Any interest/opinion on wearing pleated trousers casually? Looking for brands, ideas on how to style, etc. Would love to see your thoughts!
YUP!! I’ll get on it!
Literally trying to sell my red ll bean puffy best haha
Yuketen's Maine guide boot is easily the best boot I've ever worn. Nothing else quite like it; but they are expensive.
What jeans are you wearing in this vid? Been on the hunt for a solid pair of indigo selvedge
LSG Brunswick T! Great little company!
You need to get those orslow boa fleece pants
I think it’s a must
yo mike I was almost finishing high school 05 but it said u was a kid 04 lol...... but anyways like always love the video
Hahahahahaha
Ty!!
Truman make some pretty nutty boots.
I love Truman!
I think I should move from Levi's to Polo to try to get some sweet discounts for RRL...
……….i would not be opposed
I hope you make this a yearly thing, or even a 6month thing
Oh i will!
Great video man
Ty!
Damn you for exposing those Woolrich jackets. Seems like the prices have been inflated in recent months. Could be the winter season. Could be the inflation of all prices in general, I suppose.
The end reminded me of the Animaniacs Pinky and the Brain. 👍🏻👍🏻
Bahahahaha the best compliment i could hope for
Hey BTW you convinced me to get a b3 bomber jacket
xd
No way!!!
Crescent Down Works = Best Down Outerwear. You are welcome.
Watched a couple of your videos and never heard you mention Ship John in Portland, Oregon. They make leather goods, waxed jackets and great tshirts. Check them out, I actually know a couple other really good local companies if you’re interested. All American made with great materials.
How do you afford this stuff?
You do a great job on the videos and I like your taste. Idk ...you will have to be a millionaire to buy all the stuff you like
Bahaha I know, gotta make the bread to get the drip!
That 3l jacket is a ripoff when you consider At that weight 800 fill is not warm and you might as well buy ptagonia or north face nupste
Oooh interesting! I need to see one IRL!
if you're willing to fork over the money for a beefy winter parka, check out Canada Goose.
I enjoy the channel, very entertaining. For future reference: don't pronounce the "d" in Goyard, it is French and the "d" is silent.
Good to know! Ty!
shout out to the 1 legged man @1:45
check out the Nigel cabourne parkas
Oh i will!
Yes.
OOoooh yea
I'm definitely getting the oven mitts you're wearing.
I just pulled a cast iron skillet out of the oven before pressing record
... Crescent Down Works? 😏
😏😏😏😏😏😏😏🤤
I also like clothes
Lol "Studio DArtisan"
That’s me just giving up and copying stridewise
@@TheIronSnail bad habits lol
I-ma-jean, I think?
You are 100% right! My b there
Hey!
BRIAN!
We gotta introduce you to some real boots. Here's one, Fitwell Yuma. Check them out. Also, Lowas, Zamberlan, & Kenetrek
Nice video but I deeply suggest you to stay away from the Avirex (or Schott) B-6s, they’re quite bad as jackets and the sheepskin they’re made of is usually crap.
Did not know this! I’ll def look into that
2 years later, I wonder what you'd still be excited about?
Destroy The World.....aka: The Iron Snail followers. Wow, lots of info in this video. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to find my world destroying pieces.
Better suit up!
Onitsuka Tiger is owned by Asics
It’s not a LV chest….it’s a trunk….
You look familiar
So do you
You’re always off topic
I hope you get over your love of fleece -- it's an enviornmental disaster.
whats next? $400 pair of socks? jesus...
Aime Leon dore. Aime Leon dore. Aime Leon dore. Thank me later
