🧍🏻My Sizes
I'm 5'6" with shoes on and about 125 lbs after dinner. I have a 35" chest; I usually wear XS tops and 28x28 pants (or 28x30 cuffed).
My best suit jacket size is 34 Short, but even 34S needs alterations (mostly shortening of the sleeves and jacket), so my best-fitting suits are custom.

Hey that's some awesome information you gained a subscription i watch a lot of your videos after i found that one
Could you do a video about how you clean you t shirts ..... and maintain them
Non watch people will probably not get it, but I spent more than 2 months salary on a Tudor Black Bay 58 two years ago, and I am so glad I did. The feel and quality is amazing (having previously worn a Seiko SNK809) and it really makes me feel special wearing it.
Excellent choice, wear it well!
I'm saving up for Tudor Pelagos 39. I have a Seiko monster and SKX got them as milestones.
Two things as a relative newcomer to your channel:
1. I'd love you to go through your desktop setup - you briefly showed it here but I'm curious about the organization/placement of your desk and office setup.
2. Completely unrelated but you have a great voice for ASMR like they have on meditation apps.
The things I don't regret buying that was actually expensive, are my Helite Turtle airbag vest and a complementary Dainese leather vest, the turtle saved my neck when I got rammed by and old lady who "forgot to hit the brakes" and the Dainese saved my skin when I slid 20m's. Great list Brock.
Two things come to mind that are worth the cost
If you're into coffee, a proper flat burr grinder is absolutely worth the price and even if you aren't especially into music a good set of speakers (ideally floor standing) + amp + cables (and maybe a turntable) is often a 'buy it for life' type purchase
theres some video on your ad
Antiperspirant is different than deodorant… the former usually contains aluminum, the latter usually doesn’t. Aluminum free ftw
Most antiperspirants are also deodorants (like Jack Black Pit Boss). I find some antiperspirants to be irritating, but not this one. I haven't had luck with aluminum free deodorants.
@@BrockMcGoffcan you liken the scent of Pit Boss to anything easily identifiable? The scent makes it or breaks it for me.
Hey Brock, do you have a fragrance free favorite?
@@scottd.3382sort of a fresh, slightly sweet ocean spray kind of scent. It’s pretty inoffensive. I can’t imagine someone not liking it, but it’s also not super unique or special.
@@BrockMcGoff thank you, Brock.
I run marathons and high quality running shoes are a must, they take good care of your feet and hold up to the hundreds of miles of training. Also a Rolex Explorer...I waited years to find one and once I got it its the only watch I wear unless I'm running, then I use my Garmin.
Recently bought a MontBlanc pen and the quality is spectacular. Very expensive for a pen, but I’m quite happy with it.
Have had my MontBlanc for over 20 years. People are usually impressed when I pull it out to sign contracts.
Products like Cerave SPF is extremely high quality and cheap, you dont need to pay extra.
Maui Jim does prescription sunglasses I'm pretty sure. Worth looking into. They are my favourite sunglasses.
The quality of videos and their presentation has improved a lot. Congratulations on your effort and dedication to Brock!
Glad you think so!
I have black Allen Edmonds Park Avenues, wear with suits, no brainer. Will never have to buy a replacement.
Great video, Brock! I appreciated the range of products represented in this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have some items which are expensive but I consider them “Money well spent” . After I started following the Modest Man channel I realised the importance of a good wrist watch that fits perfectly for my slender wrist . After saving up for a month I bought my first dress watch i.e orient bambino 5s 36mm in Rose( Same as Brock’s Bambino ) . Then instead of having several clothes that doesn’t fit well I got 2 MTM dress pants , 4 Levi’s 511 Jeans , 2 dress shirts and couple of casual shirts . One might think these things aren’t that expensive but in India these are considered expensive for average person. But I really enjoy having all these things , in simple words it makes me feel like I worth Billion dollars 😇.
That sounds like money well spent to me! Love that Bambino 👌🏼
Where do you get genuine levi jeans
Thanks for all your content and starting a nice discussion. Its interesting to read through the comments.
I recently bought a 50's Les Paul Standard, after years of playing and loving Stratocasters.
I definitely don't regret buying my Sennheiser M3 earbuds too. Worth every dollar.
Ill definitely check out your drumming channel.
GREAT Video, Thank You 😀
Thanks for watching!
Those Roland e-drums are a great choice. Me and my son went through a number of electronic kits over a few years, starting with the cheapest Yamahas and moving up to the Rolands (I think a slightly different model but around the same level), trying SO many in between, and the difference between cheap ones and expensive ones is so, so huge, there are no diminishing returns involved.
I noticed the Korg SP-250 digital piano behind the drums too - I owned those forever and would always tell people that those are such a hidden gem as far as a cheap keyboard with really great action - obviously very subjective, but I tried so many keyboards before I bought mine (10+ years ago) and that keybed was by far my favourite. They "upgraded" that model to the 280 later, but put in a much worse keybed, perhaps regretting putting one in a budget piano that they also put in their high end models.
Always great Brock. 👍. We bought an all latex bed many years ago and have never regretted it. They aren't cheap but it will be the last bed you ever buy - they never sag - ever. In France they make a mattress cover that stops any staining and doesn't feel plastic - good for little kids... etc. Airpod Pro is my daily driver but when I really want noise cancellation and/or duration, I reach for the Bose wired QC 20. Great for long flights or when you are listening all day. Unfortunately, it looks like they don't make them anymore. Some are still available form retailers if you hurry. All the best!
I use Treadlabs inserts, completely cured my plantar fasciitis.
We purchased an Ooni about 2 years ago, after a long time of wanting one but not justifying the money.
Totally worth it, we don’t order take out food in the summer now and ‘pizza party’ in the garden is a firm favourite of the kids. Paid for itself in the amount of good food, plus family garden memories made 🍕
A personally created "saying" of mine is, "one thing worse than spending a lot of money on something is spending a lot of money and not getting what you wanted." Words to live by that have never failed me. I don't splurge, but I do spend money strategically. I have no problem buying generic or store brand canned foods and staples, but then turn around and pay a high price on expensive brand gourmet cheese. Spend the money where it actually makes a difference.
Very wise!
@@BrockMcGoff From your video, you have the same wisdom.
Great to hear you're back on the jiu jitsu train! With a three-month-old at home, any time I get to train is a victory and half the time I feel like turning in the purple belt, but I'm still on the path.
I feel ya! I get to class 2-3x a week, max, right now (going tonight actually). And I have to fight pretty hard to not let the other blue belts sub me all night haha. Still love it though. Keep it up!
Hey Brock, great video! You should try doing an updated watch collection video, I think that’d be pretty cool. I’m just getting into watches, I just bought a Timex marlin silver mesh edition and am really curious how your collection has grown over the years
Will do!
You forgot to mention casual shoes yo. My favorite upgrade purchase ever was going for white leather sneakers from Koio after going through white vans or adidas for years
True, that’s a huge upgrade!
Haha, I didn’t know you play drums. That’s cool to know 💪
I love the Garrett Leight sunglasses
I'm turing 30 this year so really feeling seen by this content.☺
Heres my list:
roomba
king size pod cover mattress for better sleep
macbook air for leisure
windows ultrawide desktop computer for work
airpods
secret lab computer chair
hydroflask
nice road bike and mountain bike
Great video, Brock, Im definitely going to look into better orthotic inserts.
High quality kitchen knives are always a worthwhile investment, in my opinion. I love to cook, and the difference in sharpness, balance, and edge retention from the japanese knives Ive bought over the years has really made even more exciting to get into the kitchen, even with the added maintenance. I really suggest finding a local knife shop to help you find the right knife and steel for your needs!
Im also currently in the process of upgrading my bedding from the cheap stuff Ive had since college. I sleep hot and so Ive invested in some Canadian made linens, and so far the difference in sleep quality (and sweat) has been immediately noticeable.
My first Macbook is the M1 14-inch with 500G SSD and 16 gig memory (well worth it) and my favorite earbuds are the Bose QC II (although I do have Airpods).
What are your thoughts about the Bose vs. AirPods?
@@BrockMcGoff I have always been a fan of Bose and they have an excellent sound quality and you will notice the moment you wear them.
For frames, other than Warby Parker, I suggest Akila. I own three of their frames. They're stylish and well made, plus I always get complimented on them. I also like Caddis and Moscot.
Those watches are like £3000! I was hoping they’d be like £250 or something 😂
Yeah Nomos is high end! But you can get better prices on the preowned market.
Great video Brock! What t-shirt do you have on?
It’s a cotton tee from Ash and Erie!
Hey Brock. Nice to see you after a long time.
You too!
thank you man, you are my favourite
Wow, thanks!
One thing to keep in mind is that proper care and upkeep is essential. This is especially true of shoes, for instance. Since I retired I don't need nearly as many clothes, and so I'm especially focused on quality.
Oh man, jealous you have a Roland! I definitely plan on buying one in the coming years! How long you been playing? From the videos it seems like you've been at it for a while
I will the Jack Black deodorant. I use JB daily face moisturizer with 25 SPF every day. Excellent product
I spent a bit more on a commuter backpack from Patagonia that ended up being a huge upgrade over the one I'd been using. I initially bought it because I needed a second bag on the way back from a trip to Portland (probably not the worst place to be shopping for a bag). It's been a gamechanger. I'm feeling like I should throw my old one out, but I'm struggling to part with it.
Also, I sprung for some Sony xm4 over ear headphones a couple years ago and they've been magical. Not top of the line or anything audiophiles would think too much of, but they're really comfortable and being able to stay connected to multiple devices is really nice. The carrying case doesn't hurt, either. They fold up nicely and the case provides a safe, snug, permanent place in that backpack I purchased.
I like a good sturdy Russian mail order bride. I find that the Russian branded ones have a stronger back for lifting and more stamina throughout the day. They can be a bit recalcitrant at first but proper feeding and Maintenace seems to resolve this issue quickly. Also, there is no question that they have the best styling of any mail order bride, beautiful design lines.
Look for Shot Putters without tash
Hilarious!😂
I haven't made as many expensive purchases as Brock has, but I can attest to some of them.
I have an old pair of NB 998 made in the USA, and they are amazing. Mine are about 7 years old and I still wear them. They're miles better than their regular stuff.
I have a sranding desk myself, spent about $700-$800 on it. Absolutely love it, and for my purposes, it works great. I hardly ever sit down to work anymore, and I love that it's a huge desk (around 4.5 x 2.5 feet) so it fits a lot of stuff.
The last expensive purchase that I think is worth the money is Uber Black 😅. I really like being driven in nice cars once in a while
you know what I work at home 3 days a week and now I'm getting back issues so it's time to get a better chair other than the office depot $99 office chair I have.
Best purchases I’ve made have been music software 🙏🏻 spent $1000 on Keyscape, Omnisphere & Trilian which at the time felt like a lot for what I was getting, but have made me so much money in return 💯👌🏻
Gast, fantastic sunglasses
Prescription Ray Ban New Wayfarers 👍
Ace mark shoes 👞 are amazing! 😎
Merino t-shirts are expensive but wonderful. I have SmartWool, Ibex, Icebreaker - all nice.
Good advice ," only one good dress shoes, not many" that's what I realize after owning 10 pairs
Great post. I too am willing to invest more into something I like and especially if I use it often or it improves quality of life. Regarding some of your points, Maui Jim are my general go to for sunglasses. I have several pairs in different styles and colors. I have some prescription frames from them too but they’ve since exited that business. For grills, I’m a Big Green Egg guy. I mainly sous vide steaks though and for that you need a good sear and I use a BB Prime for that. Seeing that you drum makes me smile. My Pearl Masterworks kit I’ve had for 2 decades is my baby. Your Roland kit though is nice, portable, and has a multitude of sound profiles. On the watch side, I’ve a few Omega’s and a Tag I like. Coincidentally, I just looked at some Nomos pieces last Friday as a friend’s shop just started carrying them. I’m not quite sold on their design language yet but maybe it will grow on me. Thanks for the great content you produce. I’ve followed for awhile but this is the first opportunity I’ve had to comment.
good kitchen knives. i prefer the germans over the japanese.
did you say nomos made 31 colors?! love the 3 versions you modeled here; so nice
Yes sir! I bet they're mostly sold out by now...
I use the more expensive stuff for special days and the kinda cheaper stuff when going grocery shopping. Besides, I don't like going to supermarkets and big box stores anyways.
Add a charcoal grill. You're welcome. The flavor makes it well worth it.
May I know what is the brand of your White T-shirt. That looks super good. I mean, feels like it is even appropriate for some casual occasion.
It's from Ash & Erie. I think it's called the premium tee.
which moisturizers do you recommend again?
I listen to many hours of audiobooks every week as well! It's a great way to redeem the time. 😊 What are some of your favorite audiobooks?
I just finished the Red Rising series on audio (I'd already read the book versions). It had one of the best narrators I've ever heard! How about you?
What shirt brand is that? Looks great on you!
The Nomos watch Tiefseegrau means Deep Sea Gray.
Good to know, thanks!
I really enjoyed this video. Recently I bought a used Bentley GT convertible speed. This USED car cost almost 100 grand. The build quality of this car is phenomenal and both my wife and I feel like a king and queen when we drive it. While it was expensive, I don’t regret the purchase at all.
That sounds incredible!
My first pair of Super Feet insoles were purchased 20 years ago. And yes! I am still using them. They now look old and quite ugly. But, they work.
haha I get women's swimming trunks from thrift stores for BJJ, they're fun
Oh I’m gonna try that! Also, do you happen to be a 10th Planet guy? 😏
@@BrockMcGoff no, I'm from a local Carlson Gracie school in Toronto and omg Brock replied 😮
Chat GPT should use your voice for the AI voice thing. It might be soothing or it can turn into HAL
This is crazy. Must be our age group, I’m 53, assuming you’re around the same, but…..we own so much of the same stuff that it makes me want to investigate the things you mentioned that I don’t. Thanks for the great content. Subbed and saved.
You think he's in his 50's? Haha, damn.
@@matt_valentine lol too far off? 40’s?
@@matt_valentinehmm…a quick search shows he’s 39 ish. I was way off. Guess I look ok at 53 😂
@@UltraDoug Late 30s
I need a moisturizer with an spf of 50 or more, any recommendations?
I'd try a zinc based face sunscreen like Sun Bum Clear Zinc. Gonna be hard to find SPF50 in a moisturizer (most are 20-30).
@@BrockMcGoff Thanks!
Where is the white t shirt you’re wearing from?
Swim shorts from Mr Marvis are insane value for money.
I upgraded my daily driver water bottle to a titanium model by SilverAnt. It's got more handy dimensions, contains more water and weighs less than the old one. Gamechanger.
Nice!
Viberg boots. Before actually feeling and seeing the wear difference I thought it was all hype and fanboyism.
You don't NEED more internal storage, you can always buy fast SSD for much cheaper..& be much happier
9:09 Brock: I'm a huge proponent of getting your clothes tailored so they fit the way you want them too
Also Brock: My watch straps don't fit
These are loaner watches with different strap sizes.
What do you mean a 20 dollar cow is a scam? I invested all my cash into 4 of them
God of advertising among bloggers
Thank you 🙏🏻
what edrum kit was that? edit: nevermind, you mention it later :p
Hmm. My comment was deleted.
Those new balance terrible
White t shirt is nice. Where is it from?
Brock the type of guy to put you in a Kimura if you insult his purchasing choices.
If your gi doesn't fit properly, I'm going for your back 🥋
Hey Brock, not a fan of Warby Parker anymore?
I am, but just on the lookout for alternatives.
MOSCOT make great glasses/sunglasses. Their prescription lenses are okay but not zeiss quality
a flair 58
Are you sponsored by all these brands?
Are you asking if all of these brands paid to be included in this video?
Looks like Tom Brady
This video it's just a 15 minute commercial
Commercial for what?
NOMOS has way better options, why are you liking that one...? Too flat and big for you.
Ah, amazing that you have them as a sponsor, respect, but that like doesn't fit well on the wrist at all. Why did they make it? Are they cheaper than their other options???
You are out of your mind if you think one stick of deodorant for $22 is worth it. That's like 4 sticks of A&H deo. Talk about throwing money away
NO, those are hard dad shoes without being hype, No, No, No. Also, SuperFeet don't have custom moldings, way too expensive for the price
In todays age, if anyone buys allan edmonds, they are complete idiot. One of the worst shoes for price, quality, build. Beckett simonon, bridlen are way better for half of the price. tlb mallorca main line for 320 euros are way better, let alone their artista line for 370 euros.
What swimwear doesn't last more than 1 season??? Calm down on the Chlorine pucks in your pool maybe
I haven't seen this dude in a while, didn't he have a different channel name?
