Brioni is still my all-time favorite brand. My first suit was a navy blue Brioni 180S made of 100% virgin wool (bought 5 years ago). This piece sparked my love for classic menswear and the quiet-luxury that goes with it. I was recently looking for something nice from Kiton at Sobs in Cologne. Kiton is the highest level of tailoring from Napoli and belongs on this list for me. Very expensive in the boutiques but a bit easier to find second hand than Cucinelli. I would also recommend Burberry if youre looking for a trench coat or a coat in general. Im currently looking for a Kensington second hand but in very good condition. Greetings from Düsseldorf!
Thank you for your comment. Your Brioni suit will probably last you a very long time :) Amazing quality. Have you bought anything from Kiton yet? I always wanted to try out their ties, which are high up on my wishlist. Thanks for the tip with Burberry and Kensington. Greetings back from Berlin Lukas
Burberry? If you want outerwear, look no further than PWVC. Highest quality in the world, responsible manufacturing, and when on sale, hands down the best deal you can get. I own at least 15 pieces of outerwear from them. Also, their cashmere knitwear is one of the best as well.
Very good video. As this is my style, can I suggest a couple more brands.. Aurelien (Amsterdam) Cavour (Oslo) Poszetka (Krakow) Grand Le Mar (Sweden) Proper Cloth (New York) Scavini (France) Walker Slater (Scotland) Todd Snyder (New York) -----------------below all Italy Velasca Milano Viola Milano Gran Sasso Herno Eleventy Moorer Valstar Malo Fedeli Piazenca cashmere Corneliani Falconeri Mandeli Doriani Luciano Barbera Paolo Albizzati Honestly, I can make my wardrobe full of Pini Parma, Aurelien and Cavour and it would be perfect.
Thanks for watching, Vasil. I appreciate you taking the time to add more brands 🙏 I totally agree. If I could fill my wardrobe with Pini Parma, Aurelien, Cavour and Luca Faloni I'd be more than happy :) Slowly over time, for sure :) I've updated the video description with the brands you mentioned.
To your list I would add John Smedley for their knitwear, their merino pullovers are a staple in my wardrobe - a much finer knit than other merino wool pullovers (sweaters) Great value when they have a sale too. Reiss is also a great affordable brand without logos of any kind, they are made in China usually to keep prices affordable and worth waiting for their sales too.
I have personally purchased A LOT from John Henric, around $2000 in items ranging from winter coats, sweaters, turtlenecks, winter gloves, chinos, trousers, socks, scarves, dress shirts, merino t-shirts and even a leather wallet, and can definitely recommended all!! Every purchase has been delivered with amazing shipping times to USA (from 3-5 days), great quality materials and finishing, and sizing/fits are on point! They really nail that affordable luxury look and will continue purchasing with them for years to come!
Companies like Gutteridge and Banana Republic just don't fulfill the "luxury" part of "quiet luxury". The first half of the list was a lot more interesting, imo!
Thanks for watching. You're right. I forgot to mention that in the video. The cheaper brands are mostly about the look only, but they don't fit the concept of quiet luxury with a focus on quality.
Gutteridge is a beautiful Company. I was in a store in Italy and was very impressed. And there was a sale. Bought 3 jackets and the quality is really nice. One of my favorite stores. Cotton and silk is also really nice. A lot cheaper but absolutely good quality for the price.
@@monaco308308 That's great to hear :) Glad you like it. I also like their design and the fact that they even have things like side adjusters for the price point. Considering the price, the quality is definitely good.
I find BR to lack in a lot of areas like knitwear and a lot of items with synthetic blends, but their moleskin traveler pants are an undeniable steal at $40-50 on Black Friday.
I consider myself very lucky because here in New York I was able to purchase lots of high end designer clothes at ridiculously low prices at a store that specializes in that. For example, I purchased Brunello Cucinelli suit for $430, which retails for around $4,000. Dozens of beautiful Italian cashmere sweaters, most of them at around $40. A beautiful Jil Sander blazer for $274, which retails for $1,610 etc. Unfortunately, the store filed for bankruptcy after pandemic, but reopened in May and, it’s a completely different store with all great brands gone. But I did really well before closing and got my wardrobe full of great clothes.Keep in mind: all the clothes are brand new with tags ! And, not to forget Missoni socks under $5 ( I got around 4 dozens!)
Yes, I know. Honestly, I don’t have any more space in my wardrobe. If I mentioned everything I was able to buy, it would take hours! I got 3 Brunello Cucinelli blazers at around $350 each which is unheard of! YSL suit for $115 and on and on…I even saved all of my receipts, so I can show what a great deals they had. I enjoyed your video very much.
Thanks for your hard work doing this list. Recently, I got a nice fisherman's jacket from this Italian company, Manifattura Ceccarelli, who the Iron Snail mentioned some time back.
I have a few pieces from John Henric. Sweaters and a braided leather belt and leather gloves. I have to say the sweaters are holding up fantastic. Belt is very nice as are the dress gloves. Great bang for your buck.
Absolutely loved this video! I normally would shop at Banana Republic because they had pretty decent pieces for an acceptable price, thank you for exposing me to these other brands as well! Subbed.
Chares Tyrwhitt has been my go to brand for shirts, socks and coats for many years. However, recently their quality has decreased and I've had issues with their clothes. Some of it I had to send back it was so shoddy.
Thanks for sharing. I start to hear this more frequently. I can imagine that when they offer shirts for $33 on sale, they have to cut corners somewhere.
John Henric is a really good place to buy reputable silk-made products. I have a bandana scarf & a necktie from the brand. Both crafted from all silk, about 4 years old now, & continue to look brand new. As far as accessories, would unequivocally recommend.
Here are some of the brands I purchased over the years at that store: Corneliani, Hugo Boss, Gran Sasso, Luciano Barbera, Circolo 1901, Roberto Collina, Marni, Versace, Armani, Zegna, Altea, Eleventy, Crossley, Patricia Pepe, Lanvin, etc.
tolles Video, vielen Dank! Ich bin gerade dabei, meinen Style zu finden und eine gute Gardarobe aufzubauen. Ich shoppe viel second hand und da ist es wirklich ein Geschenk, eine Liste mit guten Marken an der Hand zu haben. Da lasse ich gern ein Abo da :)
I live in Sweden and have several pieces from John Henric - chinos, linen shirts, jeans and a denim shirt. Pretty good quality in my opinion and certainly excellent value for money. Thanks for an excellent and informative video.
Great List Lukas, given that we both live in Germany, I can tell you that much about Ralph Lauren since Im a VIP Customer in Berlin, Most of their Polo, RRL and RLX lines are made in China, and while most items can usually be found for a much lesser price and same quality, there is always a standout piece here and there. So always buy in-person if you can. obviously their top line Purple Label line is flawless but their pricing is insane. Duties also play a big role in Ralph Lauren pricing, so if you can have someone pick items up for you from the US, you'd roughly save 30-40% on ALL items.
I just found this video and there are a lot of brands mentioned in it that make some exquisite clothing. I also have several Zegna ties that have a wonderful feel, and look really classy. I also have several Canali pieces: a suit (fantastic fabric), 3 sport coats`(they drape beautifully and look and feel so elegant), a pair of cotton trousers that look great, and 2 Canali dress shirts (again the feel of the fabric is fantastic, indeed luxurious). I have a John Henric Linen shirt. It is very wearable. Cool in the summer and very wrinkly, just part of the charm of Linen, and a lot less expensive that other brands. I have several Brooks Brothers Egyptian cotton shirts (the only ones I buy), and I love the fabric. I also have some pieces that are not in the video, but are listed in the "Not Mentioned" section. These include Proper Cloth a made to measure company. I have not formed an educated opinion yet, but use a shirt that fits for your measurements. I also have a Corneliani sport coat of excellent quality. The Isaia sport coat I have is Super 100s with a burgundy/charcoal gray/blue check on an olive/tan background. Absolutely gorgeous. I have 5 Eton dress shirts, some the best i have. Great fabric, good fit. Love them. I also have several Paul Smith shirts made in Italy, which fantastic. Some are unusual, really look great, like a navy colored herringbone pattern dress shirt, and a french cuff brown/steel blue/brown/white/charcoal gray striped shirt that is one of my favorites, and very versatile. Now, of all of this, about 80%, I got on eBay for an average of 10-20% of the retail price, some even less expensive. Of the sport coats I got on eBay, they are full canvas, a mark of high quality. So educate yourself about brand quality and what to look for and you can put together a closet full of high quality clothing for not much expense. It just takes time and patience.
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. You have an impressive wardrobe. I think Canali is one of the best brands because their quality is always exceptional. Thanks for sharing your experience with Eton shirts. I plan to give them a try in the future, as well. eBay truly is a treasure trove :)
This was AWESOME!!! I have never come across such an expansive list of brands, let alone having the option to shop 2nd-Hand..... Also appreciate the warning on the failing Polo brand. After moving its production to Asia, the "Quiet Luxury" clientele has moved on, noticing the drop in quality since the mid-80's, blowing-up Logos to attract the "I have no personality but notice me anyway!" buyers.
Thank you, Daniel :) I'm glad you liked it. I plan on creating a second part since there are probably at least 50+ brands that I haven't covered in this video.
RAlph lauren has several brands. Their high end quite luxury brand is purple label the ones with the large loud logo are from the polo brand and the polo brand is significantly cheaper. Again purple has no labels.
Have to be honest, I can't really get behind including Uniqlo in this list. As part of the fast-fashion industry, their clothing is designed to last no more than 10 washes before getting added to the eternal landfill (given their propensity for non-degrading synthetic fibers). Further, I was at my Uniqlo yesterday and saw a table of "Cotton t-shirts" (their words). I review the tag, and it's 51% cotton. I mean my goodness. Likewise, Banana Republic has been doing what Lukas cited Ralph Lauren as doing: integrating 20% to 40% polyester, nylon or acrylic in their clothes and still selling them at full wool or cotton prices. I'm gonna say it right now: quiet luxury brands = products that are made to last. Uniqlo and BR sadly don't fit into that category
I fully understand your viewpoint. From a pure "luxury" definition, there is not much luxury about those brands and like you said, they often use synthetic blends, but for people who are on a budget and simply want to achieve the look without too much focus on fabrics, I included them on the list. I prefer to go for second-hand in that case, but I also know many people who would not shop second hand.
I recently purchased a Michael Kors leather backpack: Price was $500.50 dollars, clearance price $150.00. Some luxury brands are quite affordable when on sale, or on clearance.
Good list, I've also listed some brands that people should be aware of, having pieces from these brands myself: Private White VC (£120): Made in the UK, this brand experienced a downturn in the early 2000s but has been steadily rebuilding its reputation by targeting younger people. Good discounts as well. Malo (£300): Comparable to Brunello but at a third of the price. They used to lead the market in cashmere prior to the 2000s. Cruciani (£450): A bit of a risky choice given their latest pieces, but their vintage collections are outstanding. I have a sweater which I’d probably rate on par with RLPL. Mauro Ottaviani (£700): Only buy pieces which use their cloudy technology, I'd rate these above LP if you want long lasting pieces. Otherwise their regular cashmere and 3 ply aren't that good. Colombo (£900): The best cashmere money can buy. I rate them leagues above brands like LP and Fioroni due to price and their 4.0 technology.
Br is perfect for someone who doesn’t want to spend more than 300 for a good quality sweater with nice garments. While their choice of material is falling in quality, they have a really nice deal if you check their materials and price. For someone in his 20s I am very happy with their style. Spent over 4k there personally.
For RL clothing I suggest sticking with RL Purple Label if you’re really balin(1000$+), or RRL for high quality without super expensive price(80$ to 500$ range)
Live in Sweden. Personally I am quite a fan of Tiger of Sweden, because for me they are the joint point of design, price, quality and availability. They may be a bit more expensive in other countries.
I’ve tried the chino’s from John Henric. I absolutely love them, good quality fabric. Mind they may fit a bit tight in the thighs. If you wait for the sale, you’ll save another 20 euro’s which is a nice bonus
I think Imitation is a good way to try new things. I also have a Kelly -style mini bag, the price is only a small part of it. Personally, I would hesitate to buy imitations of small companies, but for big brands, *amzclothes* I don't mind, as long as they do not directly copy the brand/logo.
Boggi for shirts. Velasca for shoes. Luca Faloni for knits and trousers. Pini Parma for trousers. Modesto Bertotto for Jackets, shirts and loungewear. Mr Porter for the odd sale item from Boglioli.
Thanks for watching. I also just bought my first turtleneck from them. It fitted well but was a bit roomy in the mid section. Which of their clothes are the most difficult regarding size in your experience?
@@Lukas_Schanderl I would say their casual shirts. They almost fit perfect out of the box, but the smalls are too tight in the shoulder and chest while the sleeve length works well. Medium fits well on shoulders and chest, but too much cloth on the sleeves. Same goes for their jackets. I also find their casual shirts run a bit long no matter what which indicates to me that they are meant to be wear tucked in - so that could be limiting based on what your style is. I've adjusted to just wearing shirts tucked -- which I actually like stylistically -- although it is uncommon to do in my age group so you stand out a bit. The fit is nothing a tailor can't fix I suppose. Other than that, the quality is usually really good and the clothes are delivered very nicely which is an experience in of itself. I'm a big fan.
Awesome :) Thank you for your detailed report. That's really helpful to other subscribers and to myself. I plan to order more of their clothes in the future, for sure.
I think some brands where missing for example Belstaff or Jacob Cohen, but all in all the video was interesting. I also could find some new brands that i never herd of and bought already a shirt.
I brought a classic shirt in mercerized cotton from Pal Zileri in blue, nothing special. I thought to layer it with a nice pullover in white and a chino in beige, with some dark blue shoes.
Great video... For Americans, I'd throw in Peter Millar, which works really well with wardrobes based around the Brooks Brothers aesthetic. Also for Americans, you can't really go wrong with LL Bean... which mixes nicely with Ralph Lauren. In addition, with respect to shoes, I've had really good luck with Sperry and Cole Haan. Both are incredibly well-made (for the price), and their designs are based mostly on the classics, but with a slightly modern edge. I've lost interest in Banana Republic. Over the past few years, the quality of their fabrics seems a bit diminished... but for those who enjoy BR, I'd suggest mixing it with J Crew. For the money, J Crew is very well made... especially with respect to their jackets, vests, and coats. Cheers!
Thanks for the detailed comment, Cooper :) That's really helpful. We don't have most of these brands in Europe, so it's nice that you mentioned them. I'll add them to the list :)
I personally buy bespoke. Far better than overpriced brands. I can choose the finest New Zealand wool , choose the silk lining, buttons, design and have it made over 5 weeks in Asia. I get handmade shoes, shirts all based on my sizes and emulating the finest British and Italian clothes I have now for a mere fraction. Unique and a subtle name of the tailor, shoemaker. I still have a solid all leather, double welted shoes made to measure from a Thailand shop . Cost €60
Suggestions for a high end brand for casual, night life t-shirts? Specifically I am looking for a brand that uses varied textures and weaves rather than just slapping their logo on a plain $5 t-shirt and charging $500 for it. I like to feel luxury through the material quality and texture and pattern decor rather than just a flashy digital print.
Thansk for your comment. For this, I am really not sure. I had a look at Sunspel, but their t-shirts are very minimal. I bought a textured polo shirt from a Korean brand called IoloKorea, very interesting fabric and high quality, but I am not sure how easy it is to find them. @sespos: Thanks for jumping in to help :)
You should probably add a disclaimer that the low prices offered on second hand markets should be taken with a grain of salt. Many of the popular brands are known to have an extensive aftermarket of replica or inauthentic items.
Thanks for watching, Bob. Great point. I think it depends on the country. In Germany, usually only brands like Prada, Louis Vitton or Gucci can be fakes but most of the others are authentic.
Yeah brands like cuccineli are normally not victim of plagiarism, because they are no to show of and don’t have the big written letters that everyone can see the brand
Have you ever tried Todd Snyder? I like the look, cut and the minimalism re the logo but they seem rather pricey for the fact they often blend materials (one example: a cotton, polyamide and mohair (15%) item but then marketed as a mohair sweater). It seems to be one of those brands that you have to check the materials prior to proceeding with any purchase as one can easily be seduced by the design and sales pitch. I’ve only ever purchased a tank top from them (100% cotton) and a linen shirt (100%) and both fit well. I’ve always wanted a tank top that did not scream “trailer trash” and theirs seemed to have an elevated style.
Oh my God, you have put down exactly my personal list of brands, in the middle east we don't have a big second hand market for luxury clothing, I replace that by buying at sale time , sometimes it goes for 60% off, I would add to the list Lanvin, Hackett and Corneliani .
Thanks for watching, Mahmoud :) That's awesome. 60% is a good deal, for sure. I wonder if there would be a market for second hand clothes from the EU? But I guess the import duties and taxes might be quite high. I'll add Lanvin and Corneliani. Hackett is already in there, but a bit at the bottom of the list.
@@mahmoudghoneim8004 In Germany, we have a few second hand online stores for very luxury items that verify each product first. We have a lot of Hugo Boss locally, and it's illegal to sell or bring fakes into the country (still sometimes happens) so I would say the majority is real. You can buy Hugo Boss pants for $10 second hand in Germany, in great condition as well.
Thanks for sharing. That's what I was expecting, as well. I doubt they have the best quality but for knitwear or chinos and maybe some other items, it's probably alright if you are on a budget.
Thanks for watching, Andreas. I added them to the video description. Have you ever tried their clothes? I'd be curious to hear about the quality. It looks amazing for sure.
Ralph Lauren has three labels. Polo Ralph Lauren, which is the least expensive label (which is also what you mistook for the luxury label), RRL (expensive mid tier rugged luxury) and purple label, which is out of most people’s reach.
Thanks for your comment. You're right. The purple label is extremely expensive. If I had that kind of money, it would probably not be the first brand I'd go for.
If you're in EU a good website to get many brands on discount is Care of Carl specially on SALE like now they have 60% discounts on many clothes, btw I was expecting more British brands in this video, not only Italians can do quiet lux.
Thank you for the tip 👌 You're right. I wasn't aware of that many British brands, but I have updated the list underneath the video to include the ones suggested by subscribers.
12:13 You've mentioned that Boggi Milano is 100% made in Italy but I visited their boutique today, tried some sweaters and checked their labels inside: none of them were made in Italy, most are made in Romania, and one piece - made in China 😒
Oh wow 😮 That's not a good direction they are heading. Most of my pieces are second hand, so they probably made a switch. Thank you for sharing. Unfortunately, I can't change the text inside the video, but I can mention it below the video.
Thank you, David. One reason could be unique cuts and also quality. I recently bought a vintage rain coat and it has certain features and details that are very hard to find nowadays.
A $6000 coat confuses me. For 1/3 that price you could have a coat custom made to your exact shape, with any high quality fabric you like, by a skilled artisan.
The best I found was an online store in Germany for second hand items that lets you filter the condition and allows for returns. So you can choose "like new" and get clothes that many times still have tags on them for 80-90% off and if they don't fit, you can return them without any extra charge. Now they raised the prices a bit, but you can still find good deals occasionally.
Charles Tyrwhitt is pronounced "Tirrit". (You did very well with it, so I'm not trying to criticize your excellent English.) By the way, I've heard bad reports of IndoChina - I've no idea how fair they were. But I've used ITailor, which runs on a very similar model - they're good, for modest prices. Vinted troubles me - I'm not very keen on wearing somebody else's trousers! But by the look of it, I should overcome my qualms.
Thank you for the correction, Robert :) It's always appreciated. I heard the same about IndoChino. I think HeSpokeStyle made a video about them, as well. I'm pretty happy with Proper Cloth. I know what you mean with Vinted :D One of my friends has the same reservations. Overcoats or sport coats might be great for Vinted, since they don't come in contact with the skin.
Thank you for watching :) Charles Tyrwhitt is at 15:36 Is studio suits good? I just ordered a suit from them last week and plan to do a review next month.
@@Lukas_Schanderl Oh habs grad erst gemerkt. Hab nur die Liste angeschaut und video bissle durchgeskipped hehe. Ich mag die Liste, sehr ausführlich und gute Optionen genannt auch ihre stärken etc. Ich habe erst letztens bei studiosuits bestellt also kann ich leider auch noch nicht bestätigen wie gut die sind, ich hab aber sehr viel gutes gehört. Grüss
Thanks for a great video! I really like Luca Faloni, but I find that they don't make clothes big enough for me, as I'm 195cm and about 90kg, which is larger than they provide for sadly. I have used Spier & MacKay and really like their trousers. John Henric also makes pretty good items for the price- I've bought an OCBD from them and some ties.
@@Lukas_Schanderl You're most welcome! I'll definitely be looking at some of the other brands you mentioned! Is the cable knit turtleneck from S&M the same one you showed on the screen capture? I've been looking for that style of turtleneck...
@@Lukas_Schanderl Thanks! I like the looks of that sweater, although I think the denim blue is where I'll end up. Will see if the sale gets better than their current 15%.
This store opened in New York 60 years ago and was known as “best kept secret “. The funny thing was that many Italian tourists would come to buy clothes by Italian designers and take it back to Italy because it was so much cheaper! But, as I mentioned earlier, after the store reopened this year, they changed the entire business model and eliminated most high end brands. Now they offer boring overpriced junk. Very disappointing…
@@Lukas_Schanderl Thanks, you mentioned that you haven't bought other items from Charles Tyrwhitt. I bought an overcoat from them last week when I was in London for 280 pounds. For the price I'd say it's quite decent. The outer is 100% wool which is hard to get at that price point. The inner lining is polyester but I wasn't expecting silk for that price. One other downside is the breast pocket is a false pocket just for looks. Great video btw:)

@@Lukas_Schanderl Lardini missing?
Thanks for the tip :)
I'll include them in the list.
Brioni is still my all-time favorite brand. My first suit was a navy blue Brioni 180S made of 100% virgin wool (bought 5 years ago). This piece sparked my love for classic menswear and the quiet-luxury that goes with it. I was recently looking for something nice from Kiton at Sobs in Cologne. Kiton is the highest level of tailoring from Napoli and belongs on this list for me. Very expensive in the boutiques but a bit easier to find second hand than Cucinelli.
I would also recommend Burberry if youre looking for a trench coat or a coat in general. Im currently looking for a Kensington second hand but in very good condition.
Greetings from Düsseldorf!
Thank you for your comment.
Your Brioni suit will probably last you a very long time :) Amazing quality.
Have you bought anything from Kiton yet?
I always wanted to try out their ties, which are high up on my wishlist.
Thanks for the tip with Burberry and Kensington.
Greetings back from Berlin
Lukas
Burberry? If you want outerwear, look no further than PWVC. Highest quality in the world, responsible manufacturing, and when on sale, hands down the best deal you can get. I own at least 15 pieces of outerwear from them. Also, their cashmere knitwear is one of the best as well.
This video is the best Vinted ad that I’ve ever seen lol
Ha I wish they would pay me for this :D
I can vouch for Luca Faloni, have a few cashmere jumpers from them. Amazing quality!

I appreciate you taking the time to add more brands 🙏
I totally agree. If I could fill my wardrobe with Pini Parma, Aurelien, Cavour and Luca Faloni I'd be more than happy :)
Slowly over time, for sure :)
I've updated the video description with the brands you mentioned.
To your list I would add John Smedley for their knitwear, their merino pullovers are a staple in my wardrobe - a much finer knit than other merino wool pullovers (sweaters) Great value when they have a sale too.
Reiss is also a great affordable brand without logos of any kind, they are made in China usually to keep prices affordable and worth waiting for their sales too.
Thanks for the tip, Pete :)
I'll add them to the list below the video.
Wasn't aware of John Smedley, but their clothes look great. Thanks for sharing.
Have you seen knitwear from Knitbrary?
@@pioiglesias no, that's a new one for me. I don't know if it's available in the UK. I'll have to check them out.
I have personally purchased A LOT from John Henric, around $2000 in items ranging from winter coats, sweaters, turtlenecks, winter gloves, chinos, trousers, socks, scarves, dress shirts, merino t-shirts and even a leather wallet, and can definitely recommended all!! Every purchase has been delivered with amazing shipping times to USA (from 3-5 days), great quality materials and finishing, and sizing/fits are on point! They really nail that affordable luxury look and will continue purchasing with them for years to come!
That's great to hear :)
Thanks for sharing.
Have you tried Spier & Mackay? I really like their clothes as well.
I purchased a JH white cable knit turtleneck in November. It’s perfect. Probably my best purchase of 2023.

Thanks for the recommendations, there were a lot of brands I’d never heard of so looking forward to exploring the various websites 👌
Thank you, John :)
I'll make a blog post about it soon with URLs to each brand, to make it easier, but it does take time to compile it :D
Trying to upgrade my style and fashion this year. Sick of all black outfits and tees. Thanks for this list Lukas.
Thank you, Nelson :)
Glad it was helpful.
Companies like Gutteridge and Banana Republic just don't fulfill the "luxury" part of "quiet luxury". The first half of the list was a lot more interesting, imo!
Thanks for watching.
You're right. I forgot to mention that in the video. The cheaper brands are mostly about the look only, but they don't fit the concept of quiet luxury with a focus on quality.
Gutteridge is a beautiful Company. I was in a store in Italy and was very impressed. And there was a sale. Bought 3 jackets and the quality is really nice. One of my favorite stores. Cotton and silk is also really nice. A lot cheaper but absolutely good quality for the price.
@@monaco308308 That's great to hear :) Glad you like it. I also like their design and the fact that they even have things like side adjusters for the price point. Considering the price, the quality is definitely good.
I find BR to lack in a lot of areas like knitwear and a lot of items with synthetic blends, but their moleskin traveler pants are an undeniable steal at $40-50 on Black Friday.
@@Lukas_Schanderl agree totaly. Toller Kanal.
I consider myself very lucky because here in New York I was able to purchase lots of high end designer clothes at ridiculously low prices at a store that specializes in that. For example, I purchased Brunello Cucinelli suit for $430, which retails for around $4,000. Dozens of beautiful Italian cashmere sweaters, most of them at around $40. A beautiful Jil Sander blazer for $274, which retails for $1,610 etc. Unfortunately, the store filed for bankruptcy after pandemic, but reopened in May and, it’s a completely different store with all great brands gone. But I did really well before closing and got my wardrobe full of great clothes.Keep in mind: all the clothes are brand new with tags ! And, not to forget Missoni socks under $5 ( I got around 4 dozens!)
Wos :O Those are some amazing deals.
I wish there was a store like this in Germany 😅
Yes, I know. Honestly, I don’t have any more space in my wardrobe. If I mentioned everything I was able to buy, it would take hours! I got 3 Brunello Cucinelli blazers at around $350 each which is unheard of! YSL suit for $115 and on and on…I even saved all of my receipts, so I can show what a great deals they had.
I enjoyed your video very much.
That's incredible. You got to enjoy it while it lasted :)
You must have an impressive wardrobe.
I forgot to mention: I got 2 pairs of Baldessarini pants for $13 each! Insane!
@@theamarcord1332how do you find a store like this? very good haul
Thanks for your hard work doing this list. Recently, I got a nice fisherman's jacket from this Italian company, Manifattura Ceccarelli, who the Iron Snail mentioned some time back.
Thank you :) I'm glad you liked the video.
Thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to check them out and add them to the list
I have a few pieces from John Henric. Sweaters and a braided leather belt and leather gloves. I have to say the sweaters are holding up fantastic. Belt is very nice as are the dress gloves. Great bang for your buck.
That's great to know :) Thanks for sharing, Tony.
Starkes Video, vielen Dank 🙏 ❤ hast mir sehr weitergeholfen
Danke dir 🙏
Absolutely loved this video! I normally would shop at Banana Republic because they had pretty decent pieces for an acceptable price, thank you for exposing me to these other brands as well! Subbed.
Thank you very much :)
I agree, Banana Republic has some decent pieces, but there are lots of other interesting brands to try.
Chares Tyrwhitt has been my go to brand for shirts, socks and coats for many years. However, recently their quality has decreased and I've had issues with their clothes. Some of it I had to send back it was so shoddy.
Thanks for sharing.
I start to hear this more frequently.
I can imagine that when they offer shirts for $33 on sale, they have to cut corners somewhere.
John Henric is a really good place to buy reputable silk-made products. I have a bandana scarf & a necktie from the brand. Both crafted from all silk, about 4 years old now, & continue to look brand new. As far as accessories, would unequivocally recommend.
Thanks for the tip :)
I heard quite a few people mention their accessories, so I'll give it a try for sure.
Thank you.
Thanks for the big list. Very helpful.🎉
Thank you 🙏
want to add orlebar brown for summer wear especially. also sunspel polos
Thanks for the tips, Steven :)
I'll add them to the list.
I find Hawes & Curtis out of UK pretty good too and fit the quite luxury brand
Thanks for sharing :) I heard great things about them
Here are some of the brands I purchased over the years at that store: Corneliani, Hugo Boss, Gran Sasso, Luciano Barbera, Circolo 1901, Roberto Collina, Marni, Versace, Armani, Zegna, Altea, Eleventy, Crossley, Patricia Pepe, Lanvin, etc.
Amazing :) Which ones are your favorite?
I only tried Zegna, Eleventy and Hugo Boss.
tolles Video, vielen Dank! Ich bin gerade dabei, meinen Style zu finden und eine gute Gardarobe aufzubauen. Ich shoppe viel second hand und da ist es wirklich ein Geschenk, eine Liste mit guten Marken an der Hand zu haben. Da lasse ich gern ein Abo da :)
Vielen Dank :)
Gehst du meistens in einen Shop oder guckst du bei Vinted, Momox Fashion oder eBay Kleinanzeigen?
I live in Sweden and have several pieces from John Henric - chinos, linen shirts, jeans and a denim shirt. Pretty good quality in my opinion and certainly excellent value for money.
Thanks for an excellent and informative video.
Thanks for sharing :) I still have to try them out myself.
Great List Lukas, given that we both live in Germany, I can tell you that much about Ralph Lauren since Im a VIP Customer in Berlin, Most of their Polo, RRL and RLX lines are made in China, and while most items can usually be found for a much lesser price and same quality, there is always a standout piece here and there. So always buy in-person if you can. obviously their top line Purple Label line is flawless but their pricing is insane. Duties also play a big role in Ralph Lauren pricing, so if you can have someone pick items up for you from the US, you'd roughly save 30-40% on ALL items.
I just found this video and there are a lot of brands mentioned in it that make some exquisite clothing. I also have several Zegna ties that have a wonderful feel, and look really classy. I also have several Canali pieces: a suit (fantastic fabric), 3 sport coats`(they drape beautifully and look and feel so elegant), a pair of cotton trousers that look great, and 2 Canali dress shirts (again the feel of the fabric is fantastic, indeed luxurious). I have a John Henric Linen shirt. It is very wearable. Cool in the summer and very wrinkly, just part of the charm of Linen, and a lot less expensive that other brands. I have several Brooks Brothers Egyptian cotton shirts (the only ones I buy), and I love the fabric. I also have some pieces that are not in the video, but are listed in the "Not Mentioned" section. These include Proper Cloth a made to measure company. I have not formed an educated opinion yet, but use a shirt that fits for your measurements. I also have a Corneliani sport coat of excellent quality. The Isaia sport coat I have is Super 100s with a burgundy/charcoal gray/blue check on an olive/tan background. Absolutely gorgeous. I have 5 Eton dress shirts, some the best i have. Great fabric, good fit. Love them. I also have several Paul Smith shirts made in Italy, which fantastic. Some are unusual, really look great, like a navy colored herringbone pattern dress shirt, and a french cuff brown/steel blue/brown/white/charcoal gray striped shirt that is one of my favorites, and very versatile.
Now, of all of this, about 80%, I got on eBay for an average of 10-20% of the retail price, some even less expensive. Of the sport coats I got on eBay, they are full canvas, a mark of high quality. So educate yourself about brand quality and what to look for and you can put together a closet full of high quality clothing for not much expense. It just takes time and patience.
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment.
You have an impressive wardrobe.
I think Canali is one of the best brands because their quality is always exceptional.
Thanks for sharing your experience with Eton shirts.
I plan to give them a try in the future, as well.
eBay truly is a treasure trove :)
This was AWESOME!!! I have never come across such an expansive list of brands, let alone having the option to shop 2nd-Hand.....
Also appreciate the warning on the failing Polo brand. After moving its production to Asia, the "Quiet Luxury" clientele has moved on,
noticing the drop in quality since the mid-80's, blowing-up Logos to attract the "I have no personality but notice me anyway!" buyers.
Thank you, Daniel :)
I'm glad you liked it.
I plan on creating a second part since there are probably at least 50+ brands that I haven't covered in this video.
RAlph lauren has several brands. Their high end quite luxury brand is purple label the ones with the large loud logo are from the polo brand and the polo brand is significantly cheaper. Again purple has no labels.
Great point. Thanks for watching.
I'm wearing a Zegna cashmere crewneck jumper in pale pumpkin; $10 at a huge Van Nuys thrift store here in SoCal (MSRP approx $1,500). Boom.

My traditional black Dinner Jacket is made by Canali
That must be a beautiful jacket :)
Great username btw.
Do you dress up during your rides?
Have to be honest, I can't really get behind including Uniqlo in this list. As part of the fast-fashion industry, their clothing is designed to last no more than 10 washes before getting added to the eternal landfill (given their propensity for non-degrading synthetic fibers). Further, I was at my Uniqlo yesterday and saw a table of "Cotton t-shirts" (their words). I review the tag, and it's 51% cotton. I mean my goodness. Likewise, Banana Republic has been doing what Lukas cited Ralph Lauren as doing: integrating 20% to 40% polyester, nylon or acrylic in their clothes and still selling them at full wool or cotton prices. I'm gonna say it right now: quiet luxury brands = products that are made to last. Uniqlo and BR sadly don't fit into that category
I fully understand your viewpoint.
From a pure "luxury" definition, there is not much luxury about those brands and like you said, they often use synthetic blends, but for people who are on a budget and simply want to achieve the look without too much focus on fabrics, I included them on the list.
I prefer to go for second-hand in that case, but I also know many people who would not shop second hand.
I can just tell you guys that John Henric is an AMAZING brand. The quality is great and the price is fantastic.
Thanks for sharing :)
In Japan, I think BEAMS stand out as a premium quiet luxury brand. Definitely check them out.
Thank you for the tip :)
I'll see if I can find it in Thailand
I recently purchased a Michael Kors leather backpack: Price was $500.50 dollars, clearance price $150.00. Some luxury brands are quite affordable when on sale, or on clearance.
That's a steal :) Great find, John.
Good list, I've also listed some brands that people should be aware of, having pieces from these brands myself:
Private White VC (£120): Made in the UK, this brand experienced a downturn in the early 2000s but has been steadily rebuilding its reputation by targeting younger people. Good discounts as well.
Malo (£300): Comparable to Brunello but at a third of the price. They used to lead the market in cashmere prior to the 2000s.
Cruciani (£450): A bit of a risky choice given their latest pieces, but their vintage collections are outstanding. I have a sweater which I’d probably rate on par with RLPL.
Mauro Ottaviani (£700): Only buy pieces which use their cloudy technology, I'd rate these above LP if you want long lasting pieces. Otherwise their regular cashmere and 3 ply aren't that good.
Colombo (£900): The best cashmere money can buy. I rate them leagues above brands like LP and Fioroni due to price and their 4.0 technology.
Thank you for adding to the list, Patrick :)
Great choice of brands
Amazing video brother, thank you for the tips. Nice hair too by the way. I think we as men look so much better in formal clothing
Thank you, brother.
Appreciate it.
I agree, tailored clothing looks the best on all of us.
Br is perfect for someone who doesn’t want to spend more than 300 for a good quality sweater with nice garments. While their choice of material is falling in quality, they have a really nice deal if you check their materials and price. For someone in his 20s I am very happy with their style. Spent over 4k there personally.
Good point :) I used to work there a long time ago and I also liked their quality quite a bit, especially at the price point
I love this video so much. Exactly what I have been looking for!
Thank you, Peyton :)
I appreciate that.
For RL clothing I suggest sticking with RL Purple Label if you’re really balin(1000$+), or RRL for high quality without super expensive price(80$ to 500$ range)
Good point :)
Live in Sweden. Personally I am quite a fan of Tiger of Sweden, because for me they are the joint point of design, price, quality and availability. They may be a bit more expensive in other countries.
Thanks for the tip :) I think we also have quite a bit of their clothes in Germany, even second hand.
I love Canali, fits me well. I find it on sale or on promo.
I agree. It's a fantastic brand :)
I’ve tried the chino’s from John Henric. I absolutely love them, good quality fabric. Mind they may fit a bit tight in the thighs. If you wait for the sale, you’ll save another 20 euro’s which is a nice bonus
Thanks for sharing, Jasper :) Glad to hear that.

I think Imitation is a good way to try new things. I also have a Kelly -style mini bag, the price is only a small part of it. Personally, I would hesitate to buy imitations of small companies, but for big brands, *amzclothes* I don't mind, as long as they do not directly copy the brand/logo.
Boggi for shirts. Velasca for shoes. Luca Faloni for knits and trousers. Pini Parma for trousers. Modesto Bertotto for Jackets, shirts and loungewear. Mr Porter for the odd sale item from Boglioli.
That would make pretty much the perfect wardrobe :)
Big fan of Pini Parma, made my first purchase from them 3 years ago. The clothes are well made, although I find the sizing's difficult to pin down.
Thanks for watching.
I also just bought my first turtleneck from them.
It fitted well but was a bit roomy in the mid section.
Which of their clothes are the most difficult regarding size in your experience?
@@Lukas_Schanderl I would say their casual shirts. They almost fit perfect out of the box, but the smalls are too tight in the shoulder and chest while the sleeve length works well. Medium fits well on shoulders and chest, but too much cloth on the sleeves. Same goes for their jackets. I also find their casual shirts run a bit long no matter what which indicates to me that they are meant to be wear tucked in - so that could be limiting based on what your style is. I've adjusted to just wearing shirts tucked -- which I actually like stylistically -- although it is uncommon to do in my age group so you stand out a bit.
The fit is nothing a tailor can't fix I suppose. Other than that, the quality is usually really good and the clothes are delivered very nicely which is an experience in of itself. I'm a big fan.
Awesome :) Thank you for your detailed report.
That's really helpful to other subscribers and to myself.
I plan to order more of their clothes in the future, for sure.
Cheers@@Lukas_Schanderl
I think some brands where missing for example Belstaff or Jacob Cohen, but all in all the video was interesting. I also could find some new brands that i never herd of and bought already a shirt.
Thank you, Florian :) I'll add them to the list.
Which brand/shirt did you get?
I brought a classic shirt in mercerized cotton from Pal Zileri in blue, nothing special. I thought to layer it with a nice pullover in white and a chino in beige, with some dark blue shoes.
Great choice :)
Hope you liked the quality
Massimo Dutti used to be in this category I think and very affordable, but They changed direction a few years ago.
This video should have at least 10,000 likes.
Thank you man :) I hope it will 🙏
I have x2 suits, blazer + trousers of Boggi Milano… perfect for me
Great brand, indeed :)
Thanks for watching.
Great video... For Americans, I'd throw in Peter Millar, which works really well with wardrobes based around the Brooks Brothers aesthetic. Also for Americans, you can't really go wrong with LL Bean... which mixes nicely with Ralph Lauren. In addition, with respect to shoes, I've had really good luck with Sperry and Cole Haan. Both are incredibly well-made (for the price), and their designs are based mostly on the classics, but with a slightly modern edge.
I've lost interest in Banana Republic. Over the past few years, the quality of their fabrics seems a bit diminished... but for those who enjoy BR, I'd suggest mixing it with J Crew. For the money, J Crew is very well made... especially with respect to their jackets, vests, and coats. Cheers!
Thanks for the detailed comment, Cooper :)
That's really helpful.
We don't have most of these brands in Europe, so it's nice that you mentioned them.
I'll add them to the list :)
Have you checked out Morris Stockholm?
Thanks for the tip, Carl.
I will check them out.
I personally buy bespoke. Far better than overpriced brands. I can choose the finest New Zealand wool , choose the silk lining, buttons, design and have it made over 5 weeks in Asia. I get handmade shoes, shirts all based on my sizes and emulating the finest British and Italian clothes I have now for a mere fraction. Unique and a subtle name of the tailor, shoemaker. I still have a solid all leather, double welted shoes made to measure from a Thailand shop . Cost €60
I prefer that option as well for most cases.
Which shop do you normally go to in Bangkok?
Suggestions for a high end brand for casual, night life t-shirts? Specifically I am looking for a brand that uses varied textures and weaves rather than just slapping their logo on a plain $5 t-shirt and charging $500 for it. I like to feel luxury through the material quality and texture and pattern decor rather than just a flashy digital print.
Giorgio Armani uses nice textured designs a lot on shirts and knitwear
Thansk for your comment. For this, I am really not sure.
I had a look at Sunspel, but their t-shirts are very minimal.
I bought a textured polo shirt from a Korean brand called IoloKorea, very interesting fabric and high quality, but I am not sure how easy it is to find them.
@sespos: Thanks for jumping in to help :)
Very good video, but im very distracted by the blinking
Ha I noticed only during editing :D

Bought a New Without store tags Canali Navy blazer for $40
That's an amazing deal, Peter.
Where did you find it?
You should probably add a disclaimer that the low prices offered on second hand markets should be taken with a grain of salt. Many of the popular brands are known to have an extensive aftermarket of replica or inauthentic items.
Thanks for watching, Bob.
Great point.
I think it depends on the country. In Germany, usually only brands like Prada, Louis Vitton or Gucci can be fakes but most of the others are authentic.
Yeah brands like cuccineli are normally not victim of plagiarism, because they are no to show of and don’t have the big written letters that everyone can see the brand
Absolutely great Video, thanks! Really appreciate expense and time invested for the research!
Thank you, Niklas :) I appreciate that.
Have you ever tried Todd Snyder? I like the look, cut and the minimalism re the logo but they seem rather pricey for the fact they often blend materials (one example: a cotton, polyamide and mohair (15%) item but then marketed as a mohair sweater). It seems to be one of those brands that you have to check the materials prior to proceeding with any purchase as one can easily be seduced by the design and sales pitch.
I’ve only ever purchased a tank top from them (100% cotton) and a linen shirt (100%) and both fit well. I’ve always wanted a tank top that did not scream “trailer trash” and theirs seemed to have an elevated style.
Oh my God, you have put down exactly my personal list of brands, in the middle east we don't have a big second hand market for luxury clothing, I replace that by buying at sale time , sometimes it goes for 60% off, I would add to the list Lanvin, Hackett and Corneliani .
Thanks for watching, Mahmoud :)
That's awesome. 60% is a good deal, for sure.
I wonder if there would be a market for second hand clothes from the EU?
But I guess the import duties and taxes might be quite high.
I'll add Lanvin and Corneliani.
Hackett is already in there, but a bit at the bottom of the list.
@@Lukas_Schanderl I thought about it as a business opportunity but was hindered with the idea of authentication of seller's merchandise.
@@mahmoudghoneim8004 In Germany, we have a few second hand online stores for very luxury items that verify each product first.
We have a lot of Hugo Boss locally, and it's illegal to sell or bring fakes into the country (still sometimes happens) so I would say the majority is real.
You can buy Hugo Boss pants for $10 second hand in Germany, in great condition as well.
J. Purdey and Holland&Holland (wealth whispers luxury)
Thanks for the tips :)
I got a rust pocket square from John henric. I was underwhelmed, it was small and very stiff shear fabric
Thanks for sharing.
That's what I was expecting, as well. I doubt they have the best quality but for knitwear or chinos and maybe some other items, it's probably alright if you are on a budget.
Obrigado pela sugestão.
should check out Cavour, many of their clothes are made in the same factory as loro piana if i am not mistaken
Thanks for watching, Andreas.
I added them to the video description.
Have you ever tried their clothes? I'd be curious to hear about the quality. It looks amazing for sure.
Ralph Lauren has three labels. Polo Ralph Lauren, which is the least expensive label (which is also what you mistook for the luxury label), RRL (expensive mid tier rugged luxury) and purple label, which is out of most people’s reach.
Thanks for your comment.
You're right. The purple label is extremely expensive.
If I had that kind of money, it would probably not be the first brand I'd go for.

12:13 You've mentioned that Boggi Milano is 100% made in Italy but I visited their boutique today, tried some sweaters and checked their labels inside: none of them were made in Italy, most are made in Romania, and one piece - made in China 😒
Oh wow 😮 That's not a good direction they are heading.
Most of my pieces are second hand, so they probably made a switch.
Thank you for sharing.

Good video but who wants to buy used clothing? If you can't afford if buy something else new. Good list.
Thank you, David.
One reason could be unique cuts and also quality.
I recently bought a vintage rain coat and it has certain features and details that are very hard to find nowadays.
Very nice. Keep it up!!
Thank you, Darby 🙏🙌
A $6000 coat confuses me. For 1/3 that price you could have a coat custom made to your exact shape, with any high quality fabric you like, by a skilled artisan.
I agree :D
You could get an entire wardrobe custom made for that price.
But we're probably not their target customer :D
Great video mate
Thank you 🙏🙌
I most definitely do.
The best I found was an online store in Germany for second hand items that lets you filter the condition and allows for returns.
So you can choose "like new" and get clothes that many times still have tags on them for 80-90% off and if they don't fit, you can return them without any extra charge.
Now they raised the prices a bit, but you can still find good deals occasionally.
Loro Piana?
Boggi milano and suit supply are premium. Massimo dutti comes next and those three brands are the best in their category

Charles Tyrwhitt is pronounced "Tirrit". (You did very well with it, so I'm not trying to criticize your excellent English.) By the way, I've heard bad reports of IndoChina - I've no idea how fair they were. But I've used ITailor, which runs on a very similar model - they're good, for modest prices. Vinted troubles me - I'm not very keen on wearing somebody else's trousers! But by the look of it, I should overcome my qualms.
Thank you for the correction, Robert :)
It's always appreciated.
I heard the same about IndoChino. I think HeSpokeStyle made a video about them, as well.
I'm pretty happy with Proper Cloth.
I know what you mean with Vinted :D
One of my friends has the same reservations.
Overcoats or sport coats might be great for Vinted, since they don't come in contact with the skin.

As a sidenote, it's not a fluffy wool sweater, more of a soft merino wool.
This store opened in New York 60 years ago and was known as “best kept secret “. The funny thing was that many Italian tourists would come to buy clothes by Italian designers and take it back to Italy because it was so much cheaper! But, as I mentioned earlier, after the store reopened this year, they changed the entire business model and eliminated most high end brands. Now they offer boring overpriced junk. Very disappointing…
That's so cool. What a hidden gem.
I wonder how they were able to offer the clothes at such a price.
Sad to hear that they changed their operations.

For the price I'd say it's quite decent. The outer is 100% wool which is hard to get at that price point. The inner lining is polyester but I wasn't expecting silk for that price. One other downside is the breast pocket is a false pocket just for looks.
Great video btw:)
That's a great price for a 100% wool coat.
Thanks for sharing :)
