Agreed. When I started real estate when I was 19 years old many people at the office made fun of me for wearing such suits,but I felt amazing and could see many of the seasoned agents felt intiminated by me . I hardly knew what i was doing at the time ,yet anyone that met me and didn't know I just started thought I was a complete Boss

Great stuff, very informative. I noticed that you never keep your expensive and beloved woollen suits in covers. Aren't they at risk of being destroyed by moth larvae?
That’s good question Ravishing Rick. I try to keep my entire wardrobe in a temperature controlled room. I also will occasionally beat them down quite literally with a stick to make sure there are no moths hiding in them. Thank you for watching sir. PROFF

Yes..i have a large number of double breasted suits and jacket that i enjoy wearing....keep up the wonderful job by being one the world's best dressed...spread the look.....peace
Hi Kelvin, it all depends. Generally speaking DB’s are viewed as more flamboyant. Hence may be frowned upon for a junior banker at a traditional white shoe firm. But properly done in a dark worsted color (navy/gray), it can be done. PROFF
Hello Nanda. 4x1 is far more suited for a shorter man. The longer lapel line gives and illusion of height. Are you following us on Instagram? @askokeyig Welcome to AskOkey. PROFF
I don’t know if it is too late to ask a question under a half a year old video, but I want to know if it is acceptable to wear a sweater, maybe even a cardigan under a double breasted jacket, with shirts and ties? Great informative video and I enjoyed it a lot!
YES Yifan, it is. You can wear a sweater vest under any coat (DB or SB) as an additional layer for warmth in the cooler seasons. Provided you don’t tuck the jumper into your trousers 😁 Welcome to AskOkey. Do you follow us on Instagram? @askokeyig PROFF👑
Hello Mr. Proff. I was wondering if a person with dad body would be okay or fit to wear double breasted jacket because i read somewhere that it would be more suitable for athletic and tall build instead
Question on wearing jackets, why do you always leave one button undone on your jackect? is that a rule or just a style thing? if you have a video on this please let me know.
No Sir, I’m afraid that’s not possible. Single Breasted Jacket is cut differently from Double Breasted. Welcome to AskOkey Dlezinye. Do you follow us on Instagram? @askokeyig PROFF
The double breasted jacket you have on is perfect, the texture is amazing and the overall chocolate brown colour with beige trouser is excellent.
Thank you Aziz. The fabric is from W. Bills Lamlana Bunch (Angora 50%/Wool 50%). Lovely hand on the cloth.

Great video and advice.
I noticed that all three jackets here had jetted pockets. Can/should double breasted jackets have flap pockets?
Do you remember where you got that suit and trousers? If you wouldn't mind I'm interested in copying it lol.
Edit: and the undershirt + tie, too!

Question for ya, prof: would you urge against wearing a DB for someone in finance who is more of a junior position?
Hi Kelvin, it all depends. Generally speaking DB’s are viewed as more flamboyant. Hence may be frowned upon for a junior banker at a traditional white shoe firm.
But properly done in a dark worsted color (navy/gray), it can be done.

I don't think so,you scare your boss.
@@lawrencegyebi5014 OK 😅 You know your work environment next Lawrence. PROFF
Can you elaborate on which body types should get the 4x1, 4x2, 6x1, and 6x2, please? That‘d be greatly appreciated! (I'm 5’9, 126 lbs)
Ridiculously wide lapels would be on jackets Hugo Jacomet wears.
Hi Mate..what about a 4/2 button configuration of a 4/1 configuration for a 5 ft 5 inches man
Hello Nanda. 4x1 is far more suited for a shorter man. The longer lapel line gives and illusion of height.

It’s a rule Isaac
Never button the bottom one in a SB coat
@@AskOkeyInc thank you, I have been buttoning it all this time. I appriciate you.

What tie should be weared with a double breasted suit? Bow tie or Neck Tie? I’m about to get married and I’m concerned about one or the other
Should the shoulders have padding?
YES YES AND YES 🙌🏾 🔥💯

Can I turn an oversized single breasted jacket to a well fitting double breasted jacket?

What are your thoughts on the rare 2x1 double breasted? Also, would a 4x1 work better than a 6x1 to accentuate the height of a short man?
2x1??? NEVER 😳
4x1 if you’re short 💯
PROFF
@@AskOkeyInc Why never with the 2x1?
@@redmurder13 Because it’s an abomination

Can short slim men still wear wide lapels and it looks good?
Absolutely

You better get someone else to model your clothes.
