    Well, if you want a classic look, don’t get your pants shortened to show any ankle, I think that’s just a fashion thing, it will go away and you’ll look ridiculous and won’t be able to fix it again.

    Hi Alpha
    Love your content living in the Uk 🇬🇧 you add a lot of insight and knowledge from a different perspective for me. Just noticed when you mentioned the shoes you referred to them as Oxfords? I don’t know if it’s different in the U S but I would call them a Derby because they have a open lacing system. The Oxford has a closed lacing system and meets at the bottom under the vamp of the toe box. Don’t know if it’s different over the big water please let me know if am wrong. Cheers Fella

    • @krisbabic89
      @krisbabic89 Рік тому +1

      That’s correct in the US as well. Unfortunately, a lot of people call all dressier shoes oxfords. Drives me bananas! Lol

  • @sptownsend999
    @sptownsend999 Рік тому +6

    Alpha, I agree with a lot of these points! I think the exposed ankle looks good with the polo, but doing so with a suit can actually cheapen the ensemble, and look like you borrowed your little brother's suit. That's not to say you *must* have a break on your trousers -- quite the contrary; I believe no break, but having the trouser just kiss the top of the shoe is the cleanest and arguably the most timeless length one can go for! When your wrists or collarbone are covered, your ankles should be covered, too. Regarding your sponsorship, I'm afraid none of those shoes are Oxfords, they are Derbies/Blüchers. Oxfords have a closed lacing system, while Derbies/Blüchers have an open lacing system -- actually at 6:47, the black shoe you're holding _is_ an Oxford! I understand that it's just a sponsorship and it's what the company calls them, but words have meanings (otherwise nothing would mean anything). That being said, you're absolutely right about how it's all about timelessness, and how a timeless article that looks good to-day, looked good 60 years ago, and will look good 60 years from now!

    One main colour with a small amount of a pop colours is another way to look out together. You can be wearing black joggers, a black t-shirt, and black shoes, but each has a small amount of red and suddenly you look very stylish.

    What online tailor retailer would do a “test run” shirt for $20? I don’t like buying online because if it doesn’t fit right, then I’m stuck with 5 shirts that don’t fit right. And these custom tailors are soo freaking expensive, like $100 for a plain white Oxford. If I knew they would fit PERFECT, I wouldn’t mind paying that, but maybe 1 in 10 shirts fit me perfectly. I’m a tweener, really high end of medium, large ALWAYS fits loose.

      They probably don't last for a long time, but for the price you can have a nice variety of colors/styles for the total amount a single high end pair of shoes would cost.. And since you would be rotating through them quite often, that will help their longevity some..

    I bought a pair of Bruno Marc sneakers. Nice looking. But poor quality including the imitation leather. Perhaps the fabric ones are better. But you often get what you pay for with footwear. Think you can pull off inexpensive shirts, jeans, etc., but inexpensive shoes scream inexpensive shoes. Invest in decent footwear that will last much longer than cheap ones. And perhaps pull off a low-high wardrobe.
