      When I got the mortgage on my home the only things I bought new were my sofas and my bed. With thrift stores, furnished the entire place with hard wood used furniture under $1000, and made sure the wood tones matched. Yard sales also helped with meeting others in my new neighborhood.

      Hmm.. true, style is easier in colder climate. ;-) Iceland is on the verge of the inhabitant border. Friend of mine from the States, says style is very simple in Iceland, everyone wear black. Weather here in Iceland is unpredictable, either it is fair, bad or worse. (!!) And price of clothes here in Iceland, not to mention fashion clothes, unbeliveable. Everytime an icelander goes abroad, that means shopping time. Decades ago, I was exchange student, where the climate was 40°C / 104°F. Complete differrent fashion. I could get used to that.

    Great vid Antonio! Cords are great because you can get both texture and colour in one package. Boots have to be done right for sure, complimentary colour to the overall outfit and not some fad or overly adorned. Sweaters are thee best thing for travelling I've found. Extra layer up top if needed or just wear it alone. I keep telling men summer does not equal winter. I see some still wearing tan suits and summer weights in the winter. We don't get snow but it does get cold so they shiver and I smile! I was wearing a sport jacket the other day and a much younger man touched it and said "Is that real wool?" (It is.) It's a thicker jacket perfect for cold weather and a little older but still classic design to match my age. I also wore my Dad's overcoat from the 60s and it still fits like a glove. Classic style and looks almost brand new.

      They are your clothes if you are happy with them I respect that.
      The sales clerk probably saw the jeans, sneakers, fedora combo and pegged you for a mark.
      She figured if you wear something like that it would be easy to sell you just about anything.

    I found adding better looking t-shirts (Black/White), real watches (not a smart watch), and upgrading my shoe selection really makes me standout among my peers. Oh, and investing into good sports jackets and coats for layering is essential. Layering is an underrated style tip but it works wonders. Upgrading your style does not need to be complicated, I usually look to keep my outfits simple, clean, and fitted.

    I’m a wrestler and actor so I’m going for a “modern athlete” approach with my uniform. I wear suits but use thin lightweight hoodies as my “dress shirt” (Tailored Athlete has some awesome ones). I’ll throw a pocket square in the jacket and a nice watch on my wrist. Put on a pair of boots to finish it off.

    I work in the music industry full time. I am in my early 30s. I wear big combat boots cause I like them. Usually a band T, plaid over shirt or hoodie. Sleeves up. A beanie or cap. I have half sleeves, finger tattoos, and 7 piercings, 2 of which are 3/4th gauges. I dress EXACTLY as I wished I could have as a teenager. Trust me when I say, especially as a 6'2 man in a kick a$$ career, it so is not an issue. Quite the opposite.
    The day you catch me in a monkey suit or some generic casual friday nonsense will be at my funeral, where my friends dress me that way as a prank, cause they know how much I hate it. I never am accused of being immature or lazy. In fact most of my guy friends are envious of my job and lifestyle. I look like a musician but trust me, that isn't what I do. I am very much an industry "suit" the "snake without ears" type these days. A ta glance you may assume I am unemployed and spoiled.
    I get away with it due to literally not caring and loving my life. I advise any other men simply do the same. People will be attracted to your confidence and lack of conformity to social norms. The only bad way to dress is in clothes you hate wearing and aren't comfy in.

      As a tall man you are an exception. You basically live from that tall-man-halo-effect, where you can dress like ever you want and you will still stand out in the crowd. If I would dress like you (5'8, 36 years old), people would start to treat me disrespectful. Been there, done that. Since I look always to be dressed at least top 20% well, people started threating me much, much better!

    As for casual wear, I like what you said Antonio about your geographic location. One size does not fit all. I too live in the upper mid-west, Minneapolis. It's not a Mecca of high fashion, so breaking the bank to look smart isn't an issue. Clean, wrinkle free, and a little color coordination will take you a long way. (Hopefully, your shoes are also clean and wrinkle free. 😉) A couple of things that I have changed is, NOT wearing golf (Performance) polo's unless I'm playing golf. Absolutely no cargo shorts, crocs, sandals, flip flops, or wrap-around sunglasses...and as always, no hoodies. I'm 67, but don't want to look like a 12 year old going to hockey practice. All the best Antonio, and gents!

    When I worked at a haberdashery, we had many customers who said they usually wear Baseball caps but are unsure what style of classic cap would fit them best. We would suggest a Pub Cap (like a cross between a Baseball cap and a Newsboy (or "Eight Quarter") cap), and after trying it on, they usually fell in love. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to step up the style of their headwear from a Baseball cap, because *you're already used to how the cap feels.*

Shoes are a brown slip-on CAT mid size non steel toe work boot, worn every day of the week. No longer own a suit, tie or dress shirt because haven't needed one since my dad's funeral 12 years ago, so gave them all to Good Will. Hoodie for cool weather, nylon winter jacket, or rain coat depending on time of year.

    I love G-shocks. I've been through many watches over the years, and they typically ended up broken, within a week. I don't mind an analog display, but I hate the ones with fake dials (I once had an Invicta, like that).
    I found G-shocks when desperately searching for a timepiece that can't handle work as well as I do. I don't do any diving, but the fact that it's beyond waterproof offers even more peace of mind. It's lasted me at least four years, and counting.
    My specific watch has multiple versatile tools besides telling the time, including an alarm, stopwatch, timer, and even options to display days of the week/month at any given time.
    Personally, I prefer to go cheap on fashion, and all out on function. It's been especially productive for me, in today's market. Most of what I like, I find in thrift stores, and most of what I need is much more serious investment I tend to make online (higher end than I can just buy locally). Otherwise, I'm nearly guaranteed to lament ever even acknowledging it in the long run, for either scenario.
