Antonio, you are so polite to anyone who comments. You're a wonderful example of how a real gentlemen should look and act. Keep up the awesome videos.
TheGingertator thank you sir! Love reading comments like this
Very nice gentlemen
9-year-old video, and it’s still excellent.
Not to say you haven’t come a long way, because you have!
Love your channel.
Great to hear - it's hard as you know. The temptation is there to try to just sell - but I focus on educating because it is the original and in my opinion tru calling of a sales professional.
Hello, I just found this video (yes, I know I'm 11 years late lol) and I have to say: as a 19 year old guy who is trying to build a timeless wardrobe from scratch, I greatly appreciated the simplicity of this explanation. Thank you very much.
10 years ago, yet your quality and even look is still superb. Couldn't even tell the video was that old until halfway through when I saw the date lul
The white background was giving me the illusion the camera was zooming in constantly. Glad that changed over the years, you've come a long way.
I have colder weather and a long classic overcoat is fine - but I do layer and rec you do as even large coats can't trap warm air around the body as a few layers of wool and cotton can.
Thanks Arnold - glad to add value and make an honest living!
Thank you sir - glad to be of service.
You never cease to impress me Antonio...thanks for all the value you bring!
I have a black double breasted bridge coat that is 90% wool. The coat is an older style that covers my mid thigh and has some space for a light layer underneath (My winters only get around -10 C), love it!
I find it problematic that we can only see 1/3 of the coat when you wear it. You also emphasize that it must fit which would even make a whole view more important for us to follow your tips.
I agree, I was going to mention that, Anthony, you need to show us a full view of the coat and how it fits. Telling us it's 3" below the knee, or that your jacket sleeve and shirt cuff are protected isn't enough. Get your wife to film you if you have to and do at least one pull back, or add stills to the end of the video. I really appreciate your advice and follow your videos, but this one looked rushed from a production standpoint. of course I'm replying to a video shot 6 years ago and you've gotten better at it, but I wanted to 'voice' my opinion as well.
Sounds like a great choice!
I just bought a Brooks Brothers Peacoat, and it has instantly been my coat of choice for this cold season.
I need to do this - will add to queue!
You, Sir, are a mind reader. I have been busting my brain thinking this year about how much I hate my "hiking" jacket, and how/where to get a proper overcoat to look more professional in Baltimore,MD. Thanks for all the advice!
Great vid, Antonio. Thanks for posting. Nice to see a men's channel that's less about fashion and more about style. Not all of us are a tragically hip twenty something with a 28 waist.
+Glenn Jakobsen thank you for the kind words :) Appreciate it.
Thanks - so are you!
There you go - great example of a man prepared for opportunity!
Thank you!
You are welcome!
Depends - meeting people outdoors? It might be a great way to show your support for a cause!
I like them!
Thanks Will!
Thanks!
I have some nice dressy high end and middle of the road civilian overcoats and top coats, but by far I'm most excited latley about a moss/olive green military [ surplus ?] USA made light weight trench manufactured by Sterlingwear of Boston I just picked up, it was issued to someone (has their name inside collar and inside the belt) but doesn't look like was ever used , 8 bucks and looks every bit as sharp more so actually than my dept store one, and I got it for 10 percent of the price. Thrift stores are the way to go on buying these things as they can be found for pennies on the dollar.
This is a great guide Antonio and gives people shopping new used high end or mass market , the hallmarks to look for and things to consider to make a smart purchase
Thank you for this - very helpful. Agree with previous commenter who said you are a good example of how a real gentleman should act.
You're the best man. I really dig your videos, and you have helped me out a lot. Thanks man.
Everything you have fits you perfectly! Congrants for the videos, keep it up!
You are welxome sir!
Hey John - I'm looking to get a proper video studio soon. Pretty limited right now on resources - but planning to make a big investment here in 6 months.
Years of writing this material - it's all pent up in my head ready to jump out. I'm sure I'll freeze up eventually and never make another video after that. But for now........
Very nice!
Dear Antonio, I love your videos very much. I do wish, like most of your followers, to see your whole image. It is very important for us learning. Thank you, have a good day!
Great video Antonio, as always, greetings from Chile.
I can agree with that, and I only been in the Navy since Jan. 2013.
This is a really great video. Very informative and professional.
Antonio, thank you very much for all the tips you have given in your channel.
It must be very hard to record all of those videos, so congratulations!
I hope I'll have 10% of your classiness someday! Being still 17, I think I've got a chance.
Keep up with the good work!
Thanks for all the tips
Hey Antonio. I have my grandfather's overcoat now and I've gotten a number of compliments on it. Also you're right, it does make you look more thin. :)
David Dude nice! great to hear that
Hi, Antonio!
I really enjoy watching your videos and hear you talk about menswear. I find that you usually answer all of my questions regarding the topic at hand in your videos! Great work. I am also greatly impressed on how much work you seem to be doing and how much material you cover!
I have a request for a video that i think would be a good supplement to the existing ones;
A video where you go a bit in depth on various fall/winter jackets such as the pea coat and the like.
- Ørjan
+Ørjan Leine thanks - here's a detailed overcoat article www.artofmanliness.com/2012/12/11/mans-guide-overcoats/
I understand, it is fine :-) I wear my stuff really fitted. 6,4 feet, 168 lbs. Custom made articles for me now, I need to thank you for that :-)
My next suit, Scabal 130 or 150 hehe :-)
Just got a Scabal overcoat herringbone 180's, superb :-)
Man you barely/never cut your videos and they're still interesting all the way through!
Incredible your style is...😎😎
Yeah, I get you on the American "mountaineering"-style parkas/coats. I absolutely hate wearing them for everyday purposes, and it's too common for me. Although North Face parkas are more stylish, they are still too common for me. I'm in search of a coat that fits my personality and is very unique from those in public. Thanks for the vid!
You style is so so so good
Great video! :) you should post more videos, you're my favourite fashion youtuber!
thanks my friend.
really helped me out! :)
very good video, thank you.
Speaking of Military inspired fashion. Picked up the classic Burberry trench coat the other day. Love it! I also got a kick out of the Colorado comment. I live in Colorado Springs and North face is what a lot of people seem to wear. Even with a suit. Ridicules!!!
Nice . .just remanissing my dad's style
First gotta say like your video and what your putting out there, it’s great stuff and it has change my life tremendously Thank you! Now for my actually input in this video, Not bad. It would it be better if I could have seen how it actually should fit. By having the cámara zoom out and focus how it look with from the arm and length. Last comment, had to forward almost two minute to start receiving the message of the video.
I know - I know!
Just bought a dark grey herringbone wool blend overcoat. Its fits the shoulders perfectly when worn over a suit jacket and I'm happy with the feel of it just over a jumper. My concern is it feels a bit big around the waist, not familiar with this type of coat I wondered if this was normal or not? maybe I should return it for next size down??
You have a lot of options - you should go to Zaharoff or The Haberdash.
Antonio. First off, I really enjoy the videos. They have helped me tremendously as an addition to your ebook and audio tape. The visual presentation is very important for me to see. On a topic like this, it would be very good to see the entire coat. Maybe you could get more than just the one camera recording so you can edit in and out as the video requires. Thanks again.
Any higher end menswear store or box stores like Neiman Marcus/Macys
Wow, It's so weird to watch your old videos!
Thank you 😊👍
i found a good winter overcoat in a thrift in toronto canada store made in england herringbone gray black 3/4 length size wool and cashmier blend i think it was custom made in uk single breast it was mint paid 10$ took to the cleaner he asked me who made this coat i showed him the label he said hi end house english tailor ..cost me 25 $ to clean it .. i always wore pea coat jacket in winter navy blue still do the best prada.
I love your videos! Can you make a video about stylish spring jackets?
Abby A thanks for the video suggestion - added it to my database
Your voice is so soft it makes me want to put on a heavy cardigan.
How many should I post?
Well, I only let you see my best side. Believe me - I have some poor fitting items:)
Well explained 💯🌟💪
Damn You Tube - changing their look on me!
Great video. Is there a difference between taking a topcoat to a tailor for alterations and a dry cleaners/seamstress that also does alterations?
I love that overcoat. One question, Is there a name for the style where the front can be worn open or buttoned all the way up like yours? Many thanks Dave.
Man plz make video about many ways how to wear overcoats the coolest way .
NicolS Korn great to hear from you - this article should help" www.artofmanliness.com/2012/12/11/mans-guide-overcoats/
I got a custom coat made recently as well, beautiful piece with a shoulder cape and lots of carrying options. Totally worth it.
+Xanatos712 Alucard has real style
It basically is Alucard's coat, but black instead of red. And a nice big pair of cuffs, a'la a 17th century highwayman.
Thank you - I did notice about 10% of my audience are women!
I like the coats of the british household divison.
Thank you for video, son gets married in February, need one for over my suit, wearing brown tweed, what color should I wear sir? Thank you in advance for the help
My basic coat rules: Leather jacket without the thermal-lining for off-work casual or trench coat without thermal-lining for work on slightly cool/rainy days. Leather jacket with thermal-lining for off-work casual or trench with thermal-lining for work on chilly/rainy days. My wool naval pea-coat for off-work casual or my wool or cashmere dress overcoat for work on cold/snowy days. On deep-freeze cold and heavy snowy days I pull out the big insulated parka for both off-work and work occasions. If its near 0 degrees Fahrenheit and/or blowing snow, being stylish goes out the window in favor of warmth, protection and survival. I can wait to be stylish when I get inside safe and warm from the arctic hell and take off the parka!
I can button the top button on my wool blazer but I have been looking for a good over coat for a reasonable price for quite I while now
Quality woolen overcoats should have a chamois interlining. They will be open at the bottom, so that you can easily check this.
@realmenrealstyle did you delete the video of the grey trench coat you had with the hidden hood? I can't seem to find that video anymore. I was going to look at the brand you were suggesting in that video which made that coat.
There's a lack of variety in overcoats today. For example, today it's pretty much next to impossible to buy off the rack a raglan sleeve or even a tweed overcoat made from real heavyweight wool material. In the early 1980s, I purchased a charcoal tweed herringbone overcoat from Georgetown University Shop, a real men's clothing shop. The coat was so heavy, I would only wear it when the temperature dropped below 30 degrees. Due to global warming, I donated it to charity a few years ago. My alternative was a Burberry raglan sleeve overcoat. It too is heavy, and I still own it. Btw, real men wear full length overcoats. The above the knee overcoats are for women who want to show off their legs!
+NJ2MDdude I agree, i'm tired of these modern overcoats where it's always knee level - above the knee. I'll be honest, finding a full length coat is so hard. The only place that carries it is K&G or Jos. A Bank, but they're soooo expensive! The first overcoat I had was knee length, and I hated it, I hated it with a passion, I look like a pussy wearing it. 2 years later, I donated it to the goodwill and while donating it, I decided to see what coats they had and BAM! A whole aisle of overcoats that all go below the knee, brands varrying from calvin klein, ralph lauren, to nino cerruti. I bought a nino cerruti one, only payed 16 bucks, goes below the knee, is double breasted, has huge pockets on the inside, peak lapels, and i'm satisfied with the thing! A whole lot better the previous coat I had, this coat made me feel like a badass walking around the park, I really felt like a man. Money well spent.
NJ2MDdude overcoats That are above knee level are not overcoats, they’re pea coats. Pea coats are totally different. That, or there really are overcoats that are that crappy.
I don't believe in global warming.
Mason McCune You deny global warming. It’s impossible to not believe in scientific fact.
dany Every climate scientist says you’re dead *wrong*.
Thanks - and now stop thinking about that big decision you've been procrastinating on and just go do it:)
Could you cover both trench Coats and regular goats for big and tall guys
Hey Antonio, does the button rule of a jacket apply to single breasted overcoat/topcoat? I tend to not button as I have enough layers underneath to keep me warm and leave open. Just wanted to know. Thanks.
Hi Antonio.
I'm having trouble choosing a size for a Soviet/Russian navy greatcoat.
I have a 42" chest and the store has a coat for that size.
But, it's an online store and I don't know if the coat is oversized to account for a suit to be worn underneath. Which I don't want, because I live in Australia and winters aren't THAT cold here where I need to wear 4 layers of clothing.
What should you suggest I do, Antonio??
You may just get this wish!
An insulated trench or a true raincoat sir.
I have a dark grey pea coat and I'm wondering if their is some kind of button rule for it (like on suit jackets)? Or is their no rule at all for a pea coat and just personal preferences on how to wear it?
I can't really find something very clear on the internet about it. I hope you can help me Antonio.
Please make a guide and a video for peacoats.
Can you do a video on winter hats? My head is cold and I don't know what to do about that!
I love your work Sir. Watching your videos make it so much easy for a regular guy like me to walk in a store and buy clothes with confidence. I really thank you sir. Can I wear an overcoat without wearing a blazer or sport jacket and what's your take on the slim fit overcoat. Thank you
+Prosper Junior R Thank you for the support, I appreciate. You can wear an overcoat without a jacket but just remember to keep the rest of the look sharp. Slim fit overcoats are great for tall and lean bodytypes!
Real men fake style, all you do to help is bla bla bla
I'm working my way down your list backward from the top... I can't recall ever seeing a video about storage... Did I miss it somehow? oO
Thanks, but I'm human just like you bud. Live with honor, repect your fellow man, be kind to those who are weak, be the best you can be. That's all a man can do.
Antonio, if I may ask......what type of gloves should one wear with a peacoat?
Roberts got a quick hand
I live in DC, what about 52% wool 48% polyester blend? Will that suffice for warmth?
I just call it a functional top - which in my opinion all quality overcoats should have to do their job.
Are car coats worth getting? How do you style them? How do they compare with a top coat?
What do you think of duffel coats? I have one, what do you think looks good with it? And is it ok to wear it open?
Great video! Do you have any recommendations for a college student on a tight budget for good winter wear? I have a nice dark tan swede jacket from McGreggor I got last year that keeps me war but for a casual, but refined look, can you recommend a decent clothier within the $150 range? (I want to save the jacket for more dressy situations.. not to mention I have black scarves, gloves, hats ect.) Thank you in advance!
Please do a video over leather trench coats
+Josh Hoeve yes
+Angel OfTheRedSands Hitler pooped. Hitler liked painting. Should we not poop and/or paint (sometimes at the same time)?
Nah, you're right. The time of leather coats is long gone. Nowadays the only acceptable form of leatherwear is jackets and gloves.
Angel OfTheRedSands well now I should get a leather trench coat
I have a leather duster and I love it. Don't care what anybody thinks.
l love overcoats!
in the 90's overcoats were in fashion even amoung young people, unfortunately now they're not :(
They are for some us don't worry mate
Im 14 XDD
