Hey Antonio, I want to say thank you! My dad recently lost a lot of weight and I took the chance to convince him to upgrade his style. I use your videos to double dip and teach him English as well.
Undershirt : always! Good call RMRS!
6:40 ❗️Love the Metal Gear Solid reference
I want to start wearing formal again.
Same
Me too I’ve been working from home since March 6 2020 and have been wearing an undershirt and pajama pants since then lol
Do it anyway !
Nobody’s stopping you
I wear a full suit even when I’m working at home. 1. I never know when a job will come up that needs me to go out. 2. It sets my frame of mind to work hard even if I’m at home. 3. The wife really likes the look.
Also using an undershirt makes the shirt look better as sometimes you can see the skin, specially if you have darker skin like me. Many people don't like to wear them but I think for a formal shirt its a must.
I agree
Additionnaly, this "hide" nipples when the shirt is tight
I always wear an undershirt by habbit and just always do. It does make the shirt looks better especially if its thin and seem like it can see thru the shirt. But for me one big reason is also if i sweat through the armpit it does not sweat thru the shirt or as much. I just hate seeing people wear a bright shirt and sweating thru the armpit of the shirt.
I live in the southern United States where tempratures can be above 90 degrees all summer. Add to that a 60-75 percent humidity and the t-shirt might have to be left at home. A suit jacket, dress shirt and tie with the t-shirt underneath can be uncomfortable. I don't own a t-shirt. The new well dressed me will be buying a few. I'm in your RMRS community. Thanks for everything.
I just randomly decided to watch your video out of boredom and you made it easy to watch but most importantly, I learned a lot!
I don't usually wear formal clothes but after watching this video I had to check the shirts I do own. My favorite was soooo close to being perfect 🥲
Antonio, this a great video. Summarizes all of the key points. Thank you!
my tailor advised me before to always get a perfect fit on shoulder area..its one of the most difficult to get altered..other areas the tailor can adjust quite easily
Undershirts are a must for me I get sweaty here in the south!
Undershirts do make me feel hot more and sweat more. And they do not cover armpits so I decided not to wear them.
Subscribed a year or so ago when I decided to start dating again after the big "D" was finished. Wanted to take my wardrobe up a couple of notches. RMRS was/is the place to do it! Always VERY informative! 'Landed' a classy lady that appreciates a well dressed man and a formal night out on the town. Next stop- Slick Collar.
Good for you brother.
Nice tips, one reason I avoid dress shirts usually is the ones I usually can afford..don't really fit a bigger guy like myself and the collar always chokes me. The older I get the more..well..old fashioned I become and my idea of what I find nice looking as dress cloths goes back to my maternal great grandfather who loved to wear full suits..dress shirt, pants, suit jacket, dress shoes, and a fedora. My grandmother was born in 1948 so you can guess the kind of style her father would have worn through the years.
I know what you mean. It's the classy style - it's timeless.
Thank you so much for this video! Really helpful in my quest of upgrading my wardrobe
this guy is just soo good at talking
i'm inspired every time watching
Excellent brother I never thought small observation that's helps us to invest right on clothes... 👍🙏😎
Very helpful video, definitely needed that one.
@Real Men Real Style thanks for answering the undershirt question! I’ve been torn between wearing one & not wearing one. Also just ordered my Slick Collar. Your a lifesaver keep up the good work!!!
yeeeey moreeee of these please update your old videos! next one is 10 golden rules to buying the perfect sports jacket, shoes, jeans, suit, etc.
Good looking out Boss I've been trying to figure it out thanks 👍 I appreciate your time and lesson God bless Sam
I have three dollar dress shirts from Kohl's that have 14 stitches an inch.
As soon as I’m about to order a dress shirt this pops up. The shirt can wait. Let me learn a thing or three.
Thanks. Fantastic video.
I’ve been using the slick collar for the last year… highly recommend!
Awesome Mark!
Better than Million Dollar Collar?
@@PORTMIAMIMIKE sorry, not familiar
Agree 100%!! You should wear an undershirt underneath your dress shirt. Antonio, Thanks for putting me on to The Dark Knot!
I have never had a white dress shirt last more than 1 day, the collar always gets sweat stains and that makes it painful to pay top dollar for high quality stuff.
Another Hit big dog. Thank you Real Men Real Style
Insightful!
I appreciatethe info and the Metal Gear nod.
Thank You sir 😍🙏
Thank you for your video and explanation. I wear blazers and not suits. I can, therefore, wear almost all of these shirts either with a sport coat, sweater or as stand alone and I do that.
I agree with the undershirt because of the sweat stains
Undershirts are almost unbearable in the southwest unless it's winter
Avoid t shirts with polyester. An all.cotton tshirt with powdet underneath will keep you drier and therefore cooler. Also serves as giant dress shield to.prevent perspiration show through on your dress shirt.
I've had some shirts that have been a bit snug in the neck . I just use my trusty neckspander to make the neck more comfortable when wearing a tie.
Yep, I use Slick Collar daily 👍
I love Brooks Brothers shirts. I have shirts from them that I’ve worn for 10+ years.
I tend to spend a bit more on dress shirts than the average person I know and even though I never wear them with an undershirt, when they break or become unwearable in another way, it's never staining etc. but instead the fabric breaking down, usually at the edges of the cuff or collar.
Slick collar works great🎉
keep up the good job
Undershirts will make a white shirt brighter. Same for other colors.
An undershirt is a must. It also feels better layering it under the dress shirt.
Dope ❤️😘
I think I saw a video on Slick Collar before, but since I watched this video, I started to get recommended videos comparing Slick Collar to Million Dollar Collar. The 2 comparison videos I watched slightly favored the Million Dollar Collar. I would very much like to hear your thoughts on both products. For what it's worth, I did see something on Amazon suggesting that shirts with the Million Dollar Collar can only be dry cleaned.
Thanks, Antonio! I tried Indochino for a custom shirt, and they simply couldn't get it right, even after visiting the store SIX TIMES. And since I can't find a local tailor who makes custom shirts (seems most only do suits), I'm going to try to do off-the-rack again, which is difficult because of my height. But I'm making a checklist from this video for my shopping!
Another quick and easy way to keep the collars up is some tin starch and and steam it with and iron. Not too much starch though it can leave a white residue after ironing.
I always starch only the underside of the collar. That hides any excess starch.
Whats up Antonio! I used the "Fashion Anchors" to help get my collar to stand up. Have you ever used them, Aaron marino used to be a part owner of the company.
LOTS of love from INDIA Sir...
Could you make a video on accessories for men who sweat a lot, under arms, feet etc...
Ascot Chang does 21-22 stitches per inch
Antonio i have shirts with 2" excess faabric in waist area and while i standing shirt look very good but problem is when i seat. you can see the pulling on shirt buttons. I think 3 or 4" in waist are is more flattering in both sitution(standing and seating)
AGREED
Yes on the teeshirt! (A girlfriend had to tell me; I've never looked back.) I think you're the new John T. Molloy - waiting for Dress for Success, 21st-century edition.
I wonder if Slick Collar combined with fashion anchors work the same way or better? Or do you recommend the Million dollar Collar? But it requires sewing habilities.
I usually like to have my dress shirts a bit on the loose side, but I usually wear them with a skirt that starts at the waist. Unfortunately many of my old dress shirts are worn out enough that they don't feel nice anymore, and only look good with a jacket (and my only jacket I can wear them with is a '70's army dress jacket I found at an antique shop), so I'm trying to phase them out a bit. I don't think I want to replace them, especially after seeing this. I'll just end up with the same 6 shirts all over again. I think I'll start getting dresses instead. That way I won't have to buy skirts either.
What's a better look for white shirt? Front placket or no placket? If that shirt is to be worn with both, with and without a suit
What color and type of dress shirts goes with a formal blk suit
Antonio, where did you buy that undershirt ? So hard to find one that is fitted, soft, not too heavy, and right shaped collar ( more of a U than a V) - timestamp 10:08
Excellent video! Doesn't seem like you respond as much anymore but still love the content truly helpful. I was able to get a few dress shirts but also Jackets as gifts so right on time with the upload. I wanted to ask you what sport coats would you recommend? So far I have a Blue but would love to also add a Brown someday. For Dress shirts off the rack I always go with whatever size my tailored shirt that is part of my full suit is. If you know the measurements it definitely helps as you've stated.
Hey Manuel - Of course I do! Start with the blue one as it's more versatile - you can mix and match it with dress shirts or even polo shirts.
@@RealMenRealStyle Afterwards though do you feel I can add a Brown or other solid color? My other jackets are suit jackets but I can also dress them up or down. My full suit however I would never break up because the fabric is way too shiny and it would look off seperately. Completely agree even though it's not Navy but still I feel any Blue always works.
How do I keep the collar from getting stained?
Hi Antonio, I'd like to wear an undershirt but for my white und light-blue colored shirts you can see the undershirt outlines at the arms and the breast which looks very silly. How do you deal with this? Surely I cant be the only one with this problem.
What do you suggest if the shirt meets the requirements and looks amazing but properly fitting it to your body type requires buying it a size larger? Obviously, this presents you with problems like oversized sleeve width and excess chest material. Is it better to say bye-bye to that shirt or learn how to sew?
My tailor is a He Antonio! Loll just for kicks! Shout out to my tailer Ohmed in Georgetown, ON. CANADA. At Gold Needle Tailoring. Courteous gentleman he is!
En France , we never wear a Tshirt under a dress shirt , it's bumpkin .Excuse my english I am french
I still love Million Dollar Collar. Makes your collars look amazing.
Any opinions on a black shirt? I’m thinking of getting a suit that’s all black like John Wick. Any opinions?
Very informative video about the shirt that I didn't realize makes sense. Now, I am armed with weapons when I buy my shirt .. Thanks for the tips.
Metal Gear reference check ✅
My height and arm length have always caused problems for me when it comes to sleeve length.
Some brands sell longer/shorter shirts just like they do with suits, blazers, ...
Being 1m94 (6ft4) with a long upperbody i always need to get extra long sleeve shirts. Especially if i want to combine them with more formal type of jackets. I have some that are just a tad short but they are more for rolling up the sleeves in summer :)
Where do you find the good off the rack shirts?
When you're as short and stocky as me, you don't. Even Smalls wear like a dress on me, yet I need Medium or sometimes even Large to fit my neck/shoulders. So, I exclusively wear made-to-measure now for anything long-sleeved. But even if you can fit off-the-rack shirts well, MTM will still fit better and the quality is similar for the price anyway.
The best, in my opinion are made by Hilditch and Key, based in Jermyn Street in London UK. They have branches / stockists in the USA, Europe and elsewhere. I’ve used their shirts pretty much exclusively for more than 30 years. They aren’t cheap, but excellent quality. They come with the usual removable plastic collar bones, but better still you can get silver collar bones from H&K that don’t break, buckle or bend and keep the collar looking immaculate.
@@Orwic1 Thank you very much
Do you wear undershirts to keep deodorant stains from ruining them, what about lotion transfering from neck to collar. Interested in preserving my investments. Thank you for everything.
Undershirts: Depends on the weather and/or environmental controls.
Antonio, you should interview Chuck Surack, founder and CEO of Sweetwater. Sweetwater is the largest music retailer in the USA, and when it comes to customer service, Sweetwater is the king. Musicians all over the world, including me, have never had a bad experience with Sweetwater, it’s always been good. Their headquarters in Fort Wayne, Indiana is second to none. They got a music store, 3 recording studios, a cafe, a diner, a hair/nail salon, a fitness center with personal trainer, a racketball court, a free arcade, a putting green, a golf simulator, a video library for employees, and even a slide!!! You haven’t lived until you’ve seen a slide in a music store!! But what’s really great about Sweetwater is that you build a relationship with your Sweetwater Sales Engineer. They’re musicians too. They know what you need and they’ll help you thoroughly. They won’t rest until you’re satisfied with what you have.
Now Chuck Surack himself started Sweetwater as a portable recording studio in his VW bus, which there’s a replica of when you walk into the building. His rule when it comes to customer service is a Golden Rule that everyone should follow: treat others the way that you want to be treated. He calls it the Sweetwater Difference. And he’s a musician himself, he plays saxophone and keyboards.
And on top of that, he wears a suit!!!
👊🏻
Don’t forget to exercising!!!
I am in shape....round is a shape right?
As a European I never understood the fascination that Americans have with undershirts. Undershirts are a strict no for UK or French/Italian gents.
As someone who’s always worn an undershirt under my dress shirts, and some other types of shirts, I’m seriously considering not wearing undershirts anymore and going bare underneath just like you do. Lately, I’ve noticed how bad it looks on other men when I can visibly see it under their shirts.
@BOLTEN595 I haven’t done it yet, but I’m seeing a lot more men with no undershirt underneath their dress shirts and how good it looks. It’s only a matter of time until I start going bare under my dress shirt just like you do.
@@bolten5955 Tonight, I’m going to a wedding reception and will not be wearing an undershirt underneath my dress shirt for the first time.
@@bolten5955 🙌 You’ve converted me to Team No Undershirt! I made sure to style my hair with gel while I was still shirtless to make sure there was no way for me to change my mind and put on an undershirt. It felt liberating and free, and I looked much better in my dress shirt, going bare underneath. At least from all the men who took off their suits, I saw no visible undershirt underneath. There was definitely the one odd man out who wore an undershirt, and it looked terrible. I can’t go back to wearing an undershirt anymore. Just like you from now on, no undershirt!
Always wear an undershirt!
Maybe some dress shirts have weak collars but Charles Tyrwhitt shirts do not have this problem. At least not in the last 18 years that I have been buying them and only them. I am their Biatch 🤣😂🤣
yee fit on shirts , you know they sale them in box , how can you see if it will fit you if is in box folded and pin ,and you have to go only with one number or S M L ,that is diferant on every shirt brand and shop will not have every size of every brand or type open so you can try them , the only thing you can see when buy a shirt is the color or the colar and cuf shape you can not iven feel the fabric ,
Is that Mark Webber in the thumbnail?
I've been going untucked lately, but not all my shirts can do this.
3:23... do not *marry 😂
Damn Antonio your eyes are better than mine..stitch per inch.
The most important to look nice wearing a shirt ....under v-neck undershirt if you're wearing crewneck undershirt it will ruin the style 😉
Say yes to undershirts.
Thompson Tee in tan or black with the super deep V is the way to go. Protects your shirt and no one can see the tee.

How can we get my husband to subscribe to your page? LOL We need all the help.
I need to get my suit customised losing weight
1st
Have a diagnostic done on your app I downloaded it and it is not opening it just keeps loading. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and same problem.
One problem. Here where I live, here in Asia, there is a very strong association of white shirts with Mormons. I have owned some beautiful white shirts in the past, but I've never worn any of them because of this association. Then they go yellow. Sad.
I should buy some Undershirts, I never wore one under dress shirt, sounds logical.
Greetings from Austria

Are you sure?
REMEMBER, the bigger the pattern, the more casual, the smaller the pattern, the more formal. Sometimes that doesn’t apply to stripe shirts
...when all is said and done, just bottom-up that last bottom. 5:59 IF you are outside on a summers day, this is ok. Indoors, just no.
I hate having to wear long shirts or pants
I can't wear the undershirt because I live in the tropics.
It'll just make you hot, uncomfortable, and sweat like crazy.
