i love right hand rings, (im planning to get a thumb ring), but left hand rings bother me as i am a guitarist, and ring wear on guitars (scratches on back of guitar neck due to rings) is a very common problem, so i would hope to avoid having left hand rings until marriage. unfortunately, as stated in the video, that would break the symmetry of rings, so what would be your advice?
@@undefeatedchamp7839 I actually got it and use it as a wedding band along with my wife. She loved the idea but I wear it on my right hand. It just feels more comfortable there since I write with my left hand.
I've gotten a bit more conservative with my rings in recent years, but I'm still a big believer that men should feel free to express themselves through them.
***** Thats what I meant. I'm in my fourth year of mechanical engineering and we cant legally call ourselves engineers till we are fully certified professional engineers. The story behind the ring is actually quite interesting. It is said that all the rings are made of the iron from the quebec bridge (this i highly doubt), which collapsed in the early 1900's killing 75 people. The ring serves as a reminder for all graduates and engineers of their duty to uphold their professional duties.
+Code 18 yes you're right about the bridge in Quebec. There is a legend/rumor that the first batch of rings made back then was from the iron of the bridge itself; however that is just a rumor. Extra note, some of us students actually got previously worn rings from engineers who have since retired or passed away. A sort of "passing the torch" if you will.
I am a Purdue Civil Engineering 1971 Graduate and a Registered Professional Engineer in five States (Retired). I find your History of the Iron Ring to be fascinating as well as appropriate. My Firm has done many Bridges throughout the Midwest and they are still performing as designed. Thank you Jesus.
I personally wear my ring on my right ring finger (in US culture/not married). Its made of black tungsten carbide and for me, it symbolizes promise to self. I use it to keep in reminder to be a person of morality and truth. Its also has many other personal meanings.For example, the ring is kind of small, so its difficult to get rid of, which also means that this promise is stuck to me.
I bought a 1.8 ct diamond in Afghanistan that ended up being worth way more than I paid. I planned to have it made into a necklace for my fiance, but the engagement didnt last. I had it made into a custom yellow gold ring for myself. I wear it on right ring finger. I'm not married. I don't know if others assume I'm married because of the ring, and dont really care. I just wear it because it looks cool.
@@tylerparker3024 Tungsten carbide is very hard. Too hard for any saw to cut off. So if you break your finger and it's swelling, it could be bad, because the ring can't be cut off. I think hospitals have special tools now that can squeeze the ring until it breaks.
As a man who has worn multiple rings everyday for many many years, I was ready to tear this video apart when I read the title. Buuuut you actually know what you're talking about and even taught me one thing I didn't know. Good job.
Recently got a black Tungsten ring for my right hand pinky finger. Love it! I actually started with a necklace because it was something I could easily put under my shirt. Loved it, loving the ring, looking forward to adding one or two more to go along with my tattoos and style.
Nice video, love it! I myself wears rings but I never thought of matching colors or metals. Thanks for that tip. Extra story: I worked with a guy who wears 4 rings: 1 on his right ring finger, a wedding ring (Jew) and 3 rings on his left pinky, ring and middle fingers. When I asked him why he told me: Every ring for every child he has. So you can wear rigns that have meaning for you alone and can be a conversation starter.
i actually wear 4 rings two on my right and two on my left. now this originally started as an act for magic but it soon became my fashion. I still go to school and no one there really wear rings so it makes me stand out more
At the end of the day, you create your own personal style. Some of the more gaudy/strange rings I own (which I never would think were "me") are the ones I get compliments on the most. So don't let parameters deter you from something you like or gravitate to. Just own it. I wear rings on whatever finger they fit/look good on. And guys, try to branch out from boring, plain bands. You have options, so use them.
+Namron9797 I don't know about you but I hate rings on the left hand. I write with my left so it feels odd. If I ever get married in North America, could I still wear the ring on the right? It flows better for me.
Namron9797 Yes, I'm from Kentucky I moved to Deutschland few years ago an I only wear my wedding band on the right. My wife on the other hand wears it on the left.
I personally, as a self taught hobbyist jeweler, tend to wear several rings at a time. I like that they make a statement about myself, and also tend to lead into a conversation that often ends in a sale. I use it as a form of advertising what I do. where I live, most guys only wear a wedding band so it really makes me stand out.
Great video. Don't forget to mention the safety aspect of wearing rings, and jewelry in general. I've heard of people getting their rings snagged on power tools, and arcing as it completed an electrical circuit. Also, in an industrial environment, I've seen some guys wear their wedding ring on a necklace.
There are many lines of work where you cant wear a ring. Health care, food preparation, laboratory, machine shop, welding, law enforcement, military, firefighter and pretty much any kind of manual labor.
It’s crazy how on point this is. Even subconsciously when you see someone with a ring it makes you feel a certain way. Although being a fan of 10k gold I feel like the smaller your hands are the bigger the ring can be. Just because you have small hands doesn’t make it a rule to get small rings. If anything a perfectly sized big ring for a small hand will definitely catch eyes.
i love the idea of wearing my family crest on my index finger to show that you have confidence and are not afraid to show that of who you are and what your bloodline represents
My dad wore rings as in plural. He was an Episcopal Priest. They also matched his personality. I think you can wear anything you want and it's no ones business.
I wear 5 rings on both of my hands and sometimes wear another ring on any finger on both sides that would fit with the other ring that I have already on. My favorite style of rings are Celtic, Viking and pirate.
im so glad i found your chanel. my hubby was not raised in a very "high class" family, so to speak, and my family is like 99% female with no brothers and and two dozen female cousins, three male cousins with huge age and location differences. so i have no idea what men need fashion wise or anything about their clothes or accessories. but now i found this chanel and can learn about what the hell i am going to do with my son and his clothing options. thanks!
For me I wear my titanium tension set ring on my thumb. The ring itself gets a lot of attention as it has a tension set white sapphire with Celtic leaf etching. So it's an unusual ring to begin with and i switch between my index finger and thumb. Personally I love titanium, it's incredibly strong and lightweight. It will hold it's shape through all kinds of abuse. It's not as glamorous as say gold, platinum or silver. But it also doesn't cost as much and is still just as beautiful.
I am from Bulgaria and that is true for wearing a ring here, i have ring on left hand on forth finger, but only on this finger and he is a simple-elegant gold ring .
Easy. All rings (index finger, middle finger, and pinky OR index finger and ringfinger OR thumb and ringfinger) and 3 to 5 small bracelets go on the right wrist. Watch and full sleeve tattoo go on the left arm to balance out the bling.
Another great video from you, Antonio! Personally, I never thought about wearing rings for anyone other than myself. I think my hands are medium-sized, but the challenge I have always had with rings is that, most of the time, the ones I want to buy are either too small or too large. However, there are a few that I wear on a regular basis. For example, my Birthday is January 8, so my Birthstone is Garnet. I have a Sterling Silver ring set with a Garnet that I wear on the ring finger of my left hand. I usually wear another Sterling Silver ring that belonged to my late grand-aunt on my right index finger, but sometimes on my left index finger. In addition, I recently found myself drawn to a piece of Black Onyx, shaped as a ring, and be worn as one, and that one I wear that on my right little finger.
Liked your video. I am very comfortable with wearing rings. I have Diamonds, Blue Sapphire, Tigers Eye, and Black Onyx, and family crest. I like to wear, according to what colors of clothes I am wearing. The same with watches. And you are right they make a statement. And yes, men can wear jewelry.
The left pinky is the traditional signet ring finger in Britain and with many modern noble men. I am descended from the Russian aristocracy and wear my Russian Imperial signet on my left pinky. I also wear 2 other gold rings with rubies or diamonds. I have never cared what others think of it. I wear what I feel lead to wear in my spirit. I've encountered some people who don't like me wearing a signet on my pinky but it is my birthright so I just consider those remarks to come from a place of ignorance. You really can't care what others think, there will always be critics. Wear what feels natural to you personally and culturally.
I love your take on it. It’s the correct take. Rings were originally built by men for men. Royal men wore the most unique jewels. Military men included. Noble land owning men. Jewels were always originally a status symbol for men until they commercialized designs for women in marriage and only then did men begin to take a back seat. Today men can do whatever feels great.
In Brazil, engagement rings are worn on both hands, being worn on the ring finger of the right hand when the couple is engaged, or even in a serious relationship, and they are worn on the ring finger of the left hand after marriage. Male gay couples often use steel, silver or other metals; when women, silver or even gold and often in the right hand.
Antonio, I am living my best life in Kyiv, married 7 years ago and decided to wear on my right hand as a respect to my wife. Apparently tradition is to wear on left when engaged and right when married.
For me, I wear silver native American pinky rings only on both sides & that's enough for me. I complement them with my watch more or less the same both laden silver with turquoise. I have three silver bracelets of different designs. All modesty aside, I look cool!
Great video, I live with my partner in Norway and we wear our wedding rings on our right hands. Denmark is the same but I see more pairs with them on their left hands. Sweden is definitely a left hand country. Equality is so strong there that men receive engagement rings as well. It is not uncommon to see men with 'double' wedding rings. Germany and The Netherlands are a little confusing because one sees them often on either right or left hands. The explanation is from the fact that Catholics have them on their left hands and Protestants on their right hands. These 2 countries are rather split in the middle when it comes to wedding rings.
I usually wear 3 rings on any given day as well on my watch. Im left hand dominant so i wear my watch on my left as well as a heavy skull silver ring on middle with a onyx stone silver on my ring finger. On my right hand i usually wear a plain titanium band with runic style engraving (not married or anything just happened to like the ring). I love my rings.
I just wear 1 ring on my right ring finger and if i'm dressing up or having a family meet-up I wear a ring on my left pinky finger. It's not to be a poser, it's a tradition that all of the Men in my family for at least the last 5 generations. It's a bit of tradition that actually makes me smile when I see other members of my family, including distant cousins and they are sporting a pinky ring.
I think Rings also make a person feel Respectable, that means he is conveying others to respect him in the form of a ring,he is sendig a strong message ofcourse as you said Rings Send a Message.
Never really thought about rings until i watched this video, very informative and made my want to know more about symbolism behind rings and their placement on the hand, good video :)
Look if you're a man I see rings as a symbol of status and power, especially depending on the art or insignia on the ring. A lot like your commentary on hats with them making you look taller etc I see them as a symbol of strength in the same sense.
Great video as usual Antonio. I wear a single silver ring on my right index finger most of the time when I go out. Now I'm going to feel "powerful" wearing it! :)
Fascinating and easy. I believe that rings on 7 fingers denotes human perfection. 10 fingers denotes completion. The last 2 fingers to receive balanced rings should be the pinkies.
I am just now engaged now 8 years together now with my boyfriend this month I have no idea about it all we love each other a lot and happy together soild 8 years going strong my claddagh ring I am wearing engaged now on the outside of my finger now engaged just this December 2019
I’m more of a pocket watch man than a ring man, but I’m not against rings. I have various watch fob charms that are flashy, but I maintain them. If you can pull it off; all the more power to you. Just make sure they are comfortable, show a statement, are up-kept, and can be removed and kept in a safe spot when there is any threat of damage to the piece(s) of display.
In the Islamic world men wear silver rings with usually an agate stone (it's mainly red by there are variations with the tone) and they look simple but stylish at the same time, and it's considered to be following the tradition of the prophet Muhammad who used to wear one like that too.
I frequently wear multiple rings, though I tone it down or up dependant on the occasion. On my left ring finger I wear a ring that prominently displays a symbol of my faith. I generally wear a lions head ring on my right ring finger when conducting religious ceremonies, since in my church it symbolizes my position as the head of the church. For formal family dinners or events, I wear the large amber ring that I received as a wedding gift from my wife. I wear it on my left index finger generally. When I am at business meeting or working, I generally only wear the one ring on my left hand.
+First Last // That's an excuse used by feminine men and/or lazy men who don't want to put any kind of effort into their appearance, by removing all standards they can keep on feeling good about themselves.
Hi Antonio, TY for this upload. I found it truly fascinating I wouldn't mind most of the info you shared to stay in my memory ... for I know with two special men in my life that I'll be using the info. Being a woman I love playing with my own style For instance during the summer I tend to gravitate more towards silver & light colored metals. And light colored gem stones. Then when autumn rolls around I love all the golds & the richer hues in gems. Winter I love still the golds and darkest gems. By the time spring arrives I'm ready to lighten up into Rose golds & silver & pastels with gems. Also to make sure I'm covered with matching metals, I might wear two toned just to pull it all together if need be lol. I know it may all sound a bit confusing I asure you that it's not to my inner essence It all comes to me as easy as a second nature plus it gives me a chance to really play :) Take care Antonio. Wishing you a beautiful summer with lots of laughter and joy And some new rings for the fun of it💍
Very good info on rings. Outstanding aspect of this interview, is how you use, your hands, to tell the story, and it makes you more powerful, and trustful, the use of the hands, almost as though, telling the story, with the hands. Powerful lesson for interviews and when public speaking.
I wear many rings coming from Southeast Asian background it are not the rings but the stones which are if importance every gem has it's own significant own importance and meaning we wear rings as a sign of power , for religious purposes, and even sermonical i've noticed that in European Culture it's associated with certain type of people The socalled trailer trash or low class labourers decorate them selves with loads of Gold often not compatible with each other but like you said cultural differences
Joseph Sungkawa Yes you are correct and it should be pointed out. Will most listen? deviance brother. Plus they have rappers that make their own rules. Keep yours because they will outlast any others.
I know for sure that in Southern Italy traditional culture, men of wealth and power used to keep their right hand pinky nails very long, to point out that they did not have to work with their hands for a living. Maybe adding a ring on that finger attracted attention to this wealth symbolism.
So, I have a silver watch on my left arm and I'm thinking of getting a gold ring on the forth finger, of my right hand. I'm 16 and I live in the UK btw.
Go for it. Personally I don't see anything wrong with that. I wear a silver watch on my left wrist and have a gold affiliation ring on my fourth finger on my right hand.
Antonio, you always do such a great job with these videos! Something I would like you to do a future video on would be cologne, dos and don'ts and your ideas on some really nice masculine scents.
I have a question. I wear 4 rings on my right hand. The rings I wear are Green Lantern logo ring on my index finger, Superman logo ring on my middle finger, Batman ring on my ring finger and a Star Wars logo ring on my pinky finger. I wear 2 rings on my left hand. My Flash ring on my ring finger and Legion of Superheroes ring on my middle finger. I'm planning on getting 2 more superhero rings for my index and pinky finger on my left hand. My question is is since for the most part they are superhero rings except for the Star Wars one as I mentioned is it ok to wear all those stainless steel rings since they are special rings?

Antonio.. Nice video... I wear almost daily 6 chains, 6 rings, and 3 bracelets.. And 6 pendents. All 10k solid gold.. I have 3 925 chains.. I started my collection in 2014 I try to at least buy 2-3 pieces a year .i will stop probably at 10 chains and charms 8 rings and 8 bracelets.
I usually wear two rings, one on each hand on the ring finger: my class ring on the right and my grandfather's ring on the left. Both are pretty large, yellow gold with gemstones, garnet on the class ring and tiger's eye on my grandfather's. Both look great and draw me compliments and I usually wear them on a daily basis (though a broken right wrist is currently preventing that.) I wouldn't wear more than one ring on a hand though as I think that seems a tad excessive
+MrJ567 Assuming only one ring per finger - two or three spread out across both hands is generally a safe maximum. www.realmenrealstyle.com/ring-rules/
+Cole McGlothlin Not really an excuse. I been wearing 2 rings on my left for 8 years and never took them off while playing guitar. At first I though it would get in the way but it really didn't
+MR.dmz actually it is an excuse because it bugs me when I try to wear a ring. If it doesn't bug you thats great for you. There are tons and tons of people who can wear rings and play guitar at the same time. The bottom line is that it is something that bothers me personally when I play guitar.
A wide celtic pattern on my left pointing finger. And ring finger and pinky on my right hand. All silver and balances out nicely. The right ring finger is medium width Arabic pattern so that gives me a chance to show I can speak another language. Always a plus. The pinky finger was my Grandfathers ring and it's the only finger that it will fit. it's a bit smaller band though so it works out nicely.
I met a guy from dating site but he wear a silver ring on his left finger.. I was thinking he engaged or married. But he said he not engaged or married, the ring is from his parents as a graduation gift, but until now I'm still curious about it😳
I was just about to ask the same question about flipping the video. But instead of asking I decided to check your uploads. Hah. Thanks for the upload, and the channel in general. Just found out about you yesterday. I used to wear a ring on my right thumb. I'm right handed so it was pretty visible. I've since heard many (women) ask where's my ring and that I should get a new one. My fingers are pretty skinny and on my thumb the joint part is much thicker than the straight bone (like hourglass figurine when I point it up). So I guess it evened it out and made my hand feel a bit bigger.
Wrongly from the point of view of the whole tradition of why the ring is worn on ring finger of the left hand. Yes I did watch the video, did you not? He actually talks about understanding the history of wearing a ring and of all the examples he gives (fraternity, masonic and gangster etc) I would argue that the wedding ring is probably the most important! He totally misses the main point that the history of wearing of wearing it on the left hand pre-dates all of the others, going back thousands of years when it was believed that the vein of love ran through it straight to the heart.
Mark Sant,he’s not wearing it wrong,he is wearing it in different way.Ukrainians are generally orthodoxies,so they wear rings on right hands,because it’s believed that right side is better than left. It is the tradition lasting for many centuries,just like wearing on left hand,and the fact that he doesn’t follow your tradition doesn’t mean he is doing it wrong
I wear a tungsten carbide wedding ring on my left ring, a thick silver spoon ring on my left thumb, and a Masonic ring on my right ring. I'd like another ring on my left index, but I'm not sure what yet. I know that's overbalanced to the left, but I'm left handed, and it fits my personal style well.
the British used to wear their wedding rings on the right hand for a while but found that since the left hand was less used it's more easy to maintain the ring on the left hand the finger cannot be pulled straight without bronging the other fingers up as well so the ring was more sheltered on the fourth finger- what I recall from Manners, Customs and Observances by Leopald Wagner
Oh, gosh! apologies for the attrocious speling and grammar, i was on mobile and must have been in a rush at the time. the book itself was published in 1894. "The British used to wear their wedding rings on the right hand for a while, but found that since the left hand was less used it's more easy to maintain the ring on the left hand. The finger cannot be pulled straight without bringing the other fingers up as well so the ring is more sheltered on the fourth finger- what I recall from Manners, Customs and Observances by Leopald Wagner" what it should have read ahahaha
I recently subscribed and I find this channel amazing. It's a delightful viewing, while still being 50% sponsor advertizing. You manage to pull off an infomercial without it being nauseatingly repetitive and condescending - each time you do it! And your advice is usually not mere trite and obviousness, which positions you favorably in comparison to other "men's advice" channels. You oversell everything (both the product and the advice) - it's noticeable. Yet you do it just enough to engage the viewer emotionally but not to the point of being condescending or sounding like a traveling salesman. I love it! Absolutely fantastic :)
This comment is totally off topic but I couldn't help but notice Antonia sporting slightly longer hair than in his past videos. I have to say this style with longer hair on top and tapered sides suits you well man, keep it up. Also, keep making awesome videos! Cheers!!!

There are many lines of work where you cant wear a ring. Health care, food preparation, laboratory, machine shop, welding, law enforcement, military, firefighter and pretty much any kind of manual labor.
You have a great way with words, thank you for your great content!
+Numair Abbasi Thank you!
i wear my ring on my left pinky. Like a mobster
Damn Boy
I wear mine on my feet.
Same but only cause its the only finger it fits. My right pinky is thicker.
It’s crazy how on point this is. Even subconsciously when you see someone with a ring it makes you feel a certain way. Although being a fan of 10k gold I feel like the smaller your hands are the bigger the ring can be. Just because you have small hands doesn’t make it a rule to get small rings. If anything a perfectly sized big ring for a small hand will definitely catch eyes.
I love men who wear jewelry tastefully...a nice ring, a single bracelet... Its very sexy.
lol
1cttw tennis bracelet & .95cttw round & baguette ring
I like you
Hey Barb, Agreed!!!
How you doin'?
i love the idea of wearing my family crest on my index finger to show that you have confidence and are not afraid to show that of who you are and what your bloodline represents
I love rings and these are all great tips to accessorize successfully ! It's easy to overdo it, so always balance your accessories out.
+contrabassoon You're right about that :) Glad it helped.
My dad wore rings as in plural. He was an Episcopal Priest. They also matched his personality. I think you can wear anything you want and it's no ones business.
I wear 5 rings on both of my hands and sometimes wear another ring on any finger on both sides that would fit with the other ring that I have already on. My favorite style of rings are Celtic, Viking and pirate.
Nah dawg
so well spoken, informative, and professional. spoke like a gentleman and not condescending at all. what a pleasure to watch!!
im so glad i found your chanel. my hubby was not raised in a very "high class" family, so to speak, and my family is like 99% female with no brothers and and two dozen female cousins, three male cousins with huge age and location differences. so i have no idea what men need fashion wise or anything about their clothes or accessories. but now i found this chanel and can learn about what the hell i am going to do with my son and his clothing options. thanks!
ragana and broo hope im not too late . Streetwear fashion , like supreme , Off White
How to wear a ring:
1. Buy a ring YOU like.
2. Put it on one of your fingers.
For me I wear my titanium tension set ring on my thumb. The ring itself gets a lot of attention as it has a tension set white sapphire with Celtic leaf etching. So it's an unusual ring to begin with and i switch between my index finger and thumb. Personally I love titanium, it's incredibly strong and lightweight. It will hold it's shape through all kinds of abuse. It's not as glamorous as say gold, platinum or silver. But it also doesn't cost as much and is still just as beautiful.
I am from Bulgaria and that is true for wearing a ring here, i have ring on left hand on forth finger, but only on this finger and he is a simple-elegant gold ring .
Exactly what I was after. Professional, informative, on point. Thank you!!!!!!
Easy. All rings (index finger, middle finger, and pinky OR index finger and ringfinger OR thumb and ringfinger) and 3 to 5 small bracelets go on the right wrist. Watch and full sleeve tattoo go on the left arm to balance out the bling.
Another great video from you, Antonio!
Personally, I never thought about wearing rings for anyone other than myself. I think my hands are medium-sized, but the challenge I have always had with rings is that, most of the time, the ones I want to buy are either too small or too large. However, there are a few that I wear on a regular basis.
For example, my Birthday is January 8, so my Birthstone is Garnet. I have a Sterling Silver ring set with a Garnet that I wear on the ring finger of my left hand. I usually wear another Sterling Silver ring that belonged to my late grand-aunt on my right index finger, but sometimes on my left index finger.
In addition, I recently found myself drawn to a piece of Black Onyx, shaped as a ring, and be worn as one, and that one I wear that on my right little finger.
+Robert Alvarez Pretty cool!
Real Men Real Style
Yes, you are, Antonio.
Liked your video. I am very comfortable with wearing rings. I have Diamonds, Blue Sapphire, Tigers Eye, and Black Onyx, and family crest. I like to wear, according to what colors of clothes I am wearing. The same with watches. And you are right they make a statement. And yes, men can wear jewelry.
Hi, Wedding Bands in South and East Europe are always used on the Right Hand
Very professional and easy to understand, keep up the good work
The left pinky is the traditional signet ring finger in Britain and with many modern noble men. I am descended from the Russian aristocracy and wear my Russian Imperial signet on my left pinky. I also wear 2 other gold rings with rubies or diamonds. I have never cared what others think of it. I wear what I feel lead to wear in my spirit. I've encountered some people who don't like me wearing a signet on my pinky but it is my birthright so I just consider those remarks to come from a place of ignorance. You really can't care what others think, there will always be critics. Wear what feels natural to you personally and culturally.
I love your take on it. It’s the correct take.
Rings were originally built by men for men.
Royal men wore the most unique jewels.
Military men included.
Noble land owning men.
Jewels were always originally a status symbol for men until they commercialized designs for women in marriage and only then did men begin to take a back seat.
Today men can do whatever feels great.
In Brazil, engagement rings are worn on both hands, being worn on the ring finger of the right hand when the couple is engaged, or even in a serious relationship, and they are worn on the ring finger of the left hand after marriage. Male gay couples often use steel, silver or other metals; when women, silver or even gold and often in the right hand.
I don't even know why I'm watching this, I've been wearing at least 5-6 rings ever since I was in high school
Antonio, I am living my best life in Kyiv, married 7 years ago and decided to wear on my right hand as a respect to my wife. Apparently tradition is to wear on left when engaged and right when married.
Thank you for this Antonio so much knowledge I never knew each finger was associated with anything besides the wedding ring. Great content!!!!
+brandon asuncion Definitely. Thank you!
For me, I wear silver native American pinky rings only on both sides & that's enough for me. I complement them with my watch more or less the same both laden silver with turquoise. I have three silver bracelets of different designs. All modesty aside,
I look cool!
Great video, I live with my partner in Norway and we wear our wedding rings on our right hands. Denmark is the same but I see more pairs with them on their left hands. Sweden is definitely a left hand country. Equality is so strong there that men receive engagement rings as well. It is not uncommon to see men with 'double' wedding rings. Germany and The Netherlands are a little confusing because one sees them often on either right or left hands. The explanation is from the fact that Catholics have them on their left hands and Protestants on their right hands. These 2 countries are rather split in the middle when it comes to wedding rings.
Thanks for letting me know. This will definitely help the gents here who are curious as to why I wear a ring on my right hand.
Im currently wearing 7 rings (left hand:pinky1, ring1, index1,
Right hand:pinky2, ring1, thumb1.)
RULES ???..I like a man that makes his own rules ; )
Kel4everSmiles woooooooo
Kel4everSmiles
My wife would disagree with you hahaha.
Agreed
I usually wear 3 rings on any given day as well on my watch. Im left hand dominant so i wear my watch on my left as well as a heavy skull silver ring on middle with a onyx stone silver on my ring finger. On my right hand i usually wear a plain titanium band with runic style engraving (not married or anything just happened to like the ring). I love my rings.
beautiful wife, happy for you Antonio. Thanks for everything
+Endhel :) Thank You!
great video :) personally i wear a sapphire ring on my right ring finger and a ruby ring on my left pinky finger. it pops up my outfits accordingly.
I always wear my 20% damage reflection ring and my 30% spell absorption ring! 💪😎
I just wear 1 ring on my right ring finger and if i'm dressing up or having a family meet-up I wear a ring on my left pinky finger. It's not to be a poser, it's a tradition that all of the Men in my family for at least the last 5 generations. It's a bit of tradition that actually makes me smile when I see other members of my family, including distant cousins and they are sporting a pinky ring.
I think Rings also make a person feel Respectable, that means he is conveying others to respect him in the form of a ring,he is sendig a strong message ofcourse as you said Rings Send a Message.
+praveen gopal I couldn't agreemore.
It just boosts confidence
Never really thought about rings until i watched this video, very informative and made my want to know more about symbolism behind rings and their placement on the hand, good video :)
Look if you're a man I see rings as a symbol of status and power, especially depending on the art or insignia on the ring. A lot like your commentary on hats with them making you look taller etc I see them as a symbol of strength in the same sense.
Grats, mate. You are the most prolix youtuber I've ever seen. I hope you are scoring a huge amount of money with the ads.
I think a man should not wear his Class Ring on his index finger.
I feel like his new jumper makes the channel feel warmer and more welcoming
Great video as usual Antonio. I wear a single silver ring on my right index finger most of the time when I go out. Now I'm going to feel "powerful" wearing it! :)
+Jay Scott Great to hear! :)
As a 14 year old kid. This really helps when I have to go to church things and parties.
Alexandre Bragança I’m 17 years old now and have 0 clue what I was talking about
nice video. and Kiev cool I was there a couple of years ago. its not too good now though with the war.
+starkiller1341 Kyiv is still great, the dollar is strong and people are stronger!
Fascinating and easy. I believe that rings on 7 fingers denotes human perfection. 10 fingers denotes completion. The last 2 fingers to receive balanced rings should be the pinkies.
I am just now engaged now 8 years together now with my boyfriend this month I have no idea about it all we love each other a lot and happy together soild 8 years going strong my claddagh ring I am wearing engaged now on the outside of my finger now engaged just this December 2019
I’m more of a pocket watch man than a ring man, but I’m not against rings. I have various watch fob charms that are flashy, but I maintain them. If you can pull it off; all the more power to you. Just make sure they are comfortable, show a statement, are up-kept, and can be removed and kept in a safe spot when there is any threat of damage to the piece(s) of display.
In the Islamic world men wear silver rings with usually an agate stone (it's mainly red by there are variations with the tone) and they look simple but stylish at the same time, and it's considered to be following the tradition of the prophet Muhammad who used to wear one like that too.
Bj Gas i like to wear the ring 💍 in same way ☺
Just because PROPHET MUHAMMAD SAW wear like that :)
SubhanaAllah! I was just wondering if its acceptable for me as a Muslim to wear it but you answered my question! Thanks :)
I frequently wear multiple rings, though I tone it down or up dependant on the occasion. On my left ring finger I wear a ring that prominently displays a symbol of my faith. I generally wear a lions head ring on my right ring finger when conducting religious ceremonies, since in my church it symbolizes my position as the head of the church. For formal family dinners or events, I wear the large amber ring that I received as a wedding gift from my wife. I wear it on my left index finger generally. When I am at business meeting or working, I generally only wear the one ring on my left hand.
Real men don't think of themselves as real men; they just are.
+First Last // That's an excuse used by feminine men and/or lazy men who don't want to put any kind of effort into their appearance, by removing all standards they can keep on feeling good about themselves.
Amen. Videos like this are what make TH-cam and society entertaining
First Last Daaaaaammmmn!
I'm Chinese, and I recently started wearing Chinese Jade thumb rings 6 months ago. I would love to see you make video about that.
Is it just me or does the man in this video remind you of a politician?
Hi Antonio, TY for this upload. I found it truly fascinating I wouldn't mind most of the info you shared to stay in my memory ... for I know with two special men in my life that I'll be using the info. Being a woman I love playing with my own style For instance during the summer I tend to gravitate more towards silver & light colored metals. And light colored gem stones. Then when autumn rolls around I love all the golds & the richer hues in gems. Winter I love still the golds and darkest gems. By the time spring arrives I'm ready to lighten up into Rose golds & silver & pastels with gems. Also to make sure I'm covered with matching metals, I might wear two toned just to pull it all together if need be lol. I know it may all sound a bit confusing I asure you that it's not to my inner essence It all comes to me as easy as a second nature plus it gives me a chance to really play :)
Take care Antonio. Wishing you a beautiful summer with lots of laughter and joy And some new rings for the fun of it💍
If you need someone to tell you how to wear a ring...you need to re-evaluate your life.
Then why are u here then ?
Very good info on rings. Outstanding aspect of this interview, is how you use, your hands, to tell the story, and it makes you more powerful, and trustful, the use of the hands, almost as though, telling the story, with the hands. Powerful lesson for interviews and when public speaking.
I wear many rings coming from Southeast Asian background it are not the rings but the stones which are if importance every gem has it's own significant own importance and meaning we wear rings as a sign of power , for religious purposes, and even sermonical i've noticed that in European Culture it's associated with certain type of people
The socalled trailer trash or low class labourers decorate them selves with loads of Gold often not compatible with each other but like you said cultural differences
Joseph Sungkawa
Yes you are correct and it should be pointed out. Will most listen? deviance brother. Plus they have rappers that make their own rules. Keep yours because they will outlast any others.
Exactly
I know for sure that in Southern Italy traditional culture, men of wealth and power used to keep their right hand pinky nails very long, to point out that they did not have to work with their hands for a living. Maybe adding a ring on that finger attracted attention to this wealth symbolism.
So, I have a silver watch on my left arm and I'm thinking of getting a gold ring on the forth finger, of my right hand. I'm 16 and I live in the UK btw.
Go for it. Personally I don't see anything wrong with that. I wear a silver watch on my left wrist and have a gold affiliation ring on my fourth finger on my right hand.
Antonio, you always do such a great job with these videos! Something I would like you to do a future video on would be cologne, dos and don'ts and your ideas on some really nice masculine scents.
I have a question. I wear 4 rings on my right hand. The rings I wear are Green Lantern logo ring on my index finger, Superman logo ring on my middle finger, Batman ring on my ring finger and a Star Wars logo ring on my pinky finger. I wear 2 rings on my left hand. My Flash ring on my ring finger and Legion of Superheroes ring on my middle finger. I'm planning on getting 2 more superhero rings for my index and pinky finger on my left hand. My question is is since for the most part they are superhero rings except for the Star Wars one as I mentioned is it ok to wear all those stainless steel rings since they are special rings?
Where did you get said rings lol

Legendary video👑🔥
O.M.G. ITS JUST A FRAGING 💍 RING NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!
Antonio.. Nice video... I wear almost daily 6 chains, 6 rings, and 3 bracelets.. And 6 pendents. All 10k solid gold.. I have 3 925 chains.. I started my collection in 2014 I try to at least buy 2-3 pieces a year .i will stop probably at 10 chains and charms 8 rings and 8 bracelets.
I bought Horned Skull rings to trigger Believers because they think I worship satan 😂😂😂
I usually wear two rings, one on each hand on the ring finger: my class ring on the right and my grandfather's ring on the left. Both are pretty large, yellow gold with gemstones, garnet on the class ring and tiger's eye on my grandfather's. Both look great and draw me compliments and I usually wear them on a daily basis (though a broken right wrist is currently preventing that.) I wouldn't wear more than one ring on a hand though as I think that seems a tad excessive
+MrJ567 Assuming only one ring per finger - two or three spread out across both hands is generally a safe maximum. www.realmenrealstyle.com/ring-rules/
Geez, What a waste of time...this guy goes on and on about nothing.

if i brake your inventierend rules would i go to jail?
I disagree.
My mom got me a black sapphire siver ring, its so nice, and i’m gonna get it resized tomorrow.
Too much rings on man is a bit frooty. Keep it at a wedding band.
what
You speak very well, sir! Congratulations!!
I hate rings I am a musician and it bugs me when I play guitar. When I get married I am going to just get her initial tattooed on my finger.
+Cole McGlothlin Not really an excuse. I been wearing 2 rings on my left for 8 years and never took them off while playing guitar. At first I though it would get in the way but it really didn't
+MR.dmz actually it is an excuse because it bugs me when I try to wear a ring. If it doesn't bug you thats great for you. There are tons and tons of people who can wear rings and play guitar at the same time. The bottom line is that it is something that bothers me personally when I play guitar.
+Cole McGlothlin Better hold off on that tattoo. Wives come and go, tattoos are permanent... LOL
+cdvax11 Truer words have never been spoken.
+cdvax11 looooooool
A wide celtic pattern on my left pointing finger. And ring finger and pinky on my right hand. All silver and balances out nicely. The right ring finger is medium width Arabic pattern so that gives me a chance to show I can speak another language. Always a plus. The pinky finger was my Grandfathers ring and it's the only finger that it will fit. it's a bit smaller band though so it works out nicely.
I will never wear a ring for two reasons. 1) ring aluvsion. 2) wedding rings are a scam created by the deBeers diamond company.
I wear a black ring on my right ring finger. I wear it for no reason. It just looks cool.
I met a guy from dating site but he wear a silver ring on his left finger.. I was thinking he engaged or married. But he said he not engaged or married, the ring is from his parents as a graduation gift, but until now I'm still curious about it😳
@@rinianggraeni9379 You use ig?
Its just a ring lmao you put it on your finger.. thats it.
I was just about to ask the same question about flipping the video. But instead of asking I decided to check your uploads. Hah. Thanks for the upload, and the channel in general. Just found out about you yesterday.
I used to wear a ring on my right thumb. I'm right handed so it was pretty visible. I've since heard many (women) ask where's my ring and that I should get a new one. My fingers are pretty skinny and on my thumb the joint part is much thicker than the straight bone (like hourglass figurine when I point it up). So I guess it evened it out and made my hand feel a bit bigger.
+Hatchy If you have slim fingers - keep your rings compact.
Do much spoken but so little said !
Same, me too Silver and Platinum kind of man, if Gold then white gold is preferred 🖤
why would you listen to advice on rings from somebody that wears the most important of rings, wrongly!
Wrongly for whom? Did you not watch the video?
Wrongly from the point of view of the whole tradition of why the ring is worn on ring finger of the left hand.
Yes I did watch the video, did you not? He actually talks about understanding the history of wearing a ring and of all the examples he gives (fraternity, masonic and gangster etc) I would argue that the wedding ring is probably the most important! He totally misses the main point that the history of wearing of wearing it on the left hand pre-dates all of the others, going back thousands of years when it was believed that the vein of love ran through it straight to the heart.
Mark Sant,he’s not wearing it wrong,he is wearing it in different way.Ukrainians are generally orthodoxies,so they wear rings on right hands,because it’s believed that right side is better than left. It is the tradition lasting for many centuries,just like wearing on left hand,and the fact that he doesn’t follow your tradition doesn’t mean he is doing it wrong
I wear my wedding ring on my right hand even though im from the U.S. i got married in a different country...
I wear a tungsten carbide wedding ring on my left ring, a thick silver spoon ring on my left thumb, and a Masonic ring on my right ring. I'd like another ring on my left index, but I'm not sure what yet.
I know that's overbalanced to the left, but I'm left handed, and it fits my personal style well.
the British used to wear their wedding rings on the right hand for a while but found that since the left hand was less used it's more easy to maintain the ring on the left hand the finger cannot be pulled straight without bronging the other fingers up as well so the ring was more sheltered on the fourth finger- what I recall from Manners, Customs and Observances by Leopald Wagner
+hweiii Great bit of history - did not know this!
Oh, gosh! apologies for the attrocious speling and grammar, i was on mobile and must have been in a rush at the time. the book itself was published in 1894.
"The British used to wear their wedding rings on the right hand for a while, but found that since the left hand was less used it's more easy to maintain the ring on the left hand. The finger cannot be pulled straight without bringing the other fingers up as well so the ring is more sheltered on the fourth finger- what I recall from Manners, Customs and Observances by Leopald Wagner"
what it should have read ahahaha
I recently subscribed and I find this channel amazing. It's a delightful viewing, while still being 50% sponsor advertizing.
You manage to pull off an infomercial without it being nauseatingly repetitive and condescending - each time you do it! And your advice is usually not mere trite and obviousness, which positions you favorably in comparison to other "men's advice" channels.
You oversell everything (both the product and the advice) - it's noticeable. Yet you do it just enough to engage the viewer emotionally but not to the point of being condescending or sounding like a traveling salesman. I love it!
Absolutely fantastic :)
+SGresponse Wow - thanks! I am happy to hear you found us and I'll try to continue delivering value!
This comment is totally off topic but I couldn't help but notice Antonia sporting slightly longer hair than in his past videos. I have to say this style with longer hair on top and tapered sides suits you well man, keep it up. Also, keep making awesome videos! Cheers!!!
Very informational video! great job! keep up the great work!
Another great segment! I found the symbolism of which finger to wear a ring on very interesting!
great advises
