    What I love about a gentleman's style is that you don't have to buy anything too expensive, I got a very nice winter coat at Costco for only 99$ CDN. I upgraded for a 230$ coat recently and I really like the way they both look.

    I've bought 3 pairs of boots this year. Allen Edmonds Daltons in brown weatherproof with dainite (beautiful busines casual, but also works as a rugged boot), the Dalton in Oxblood which is an entirely different vibe than the weatherproof edition. Sleeker and more formal. Elegant even but still casual. Then my pair of Carmina solid black balmorals are on the way now. Went with a calf skin lower and upper giving it more of the oxford appearance. My next pair will have a suede upper though.

    Having owned only Chukkas and Chelseas (not including military, hiking, and work boots) previously, this video was the final push thar convinced me to get a set of of mid-dark brown Johdpurs.
    As an aside, I'm not especially convinced about Chukkas anymore. They're less versetile and more casual than other options, and somewhat of a bad compromise in the summer. Unless you had to wear Boots i.e. military undress tans in hot climates, why not opt for something more temperature appropriate?
    If it's comfortable enough weather for jeans or cotton kahkis, it's comfortable enough for enough for boots.

  • @dbelche2
    @dbelche2 7 років тому +38

    I never understood why Chelseas are acceptable with suits but not chukkas. If its made with quality leather and has minimal broding, its hard to distinguish between a chukka and other dress shoes if your pants fit correctly. The Chelsea however, you can easily see the insert on the side and looks less formal because of that in my opinion. Just my 2 cents

      Chukkas like AE for Massdrop, and some of the U.K. brands look fine w/ a casual suit (cotton, linen, corduroy, moleskin, tweed). These materials have depth and texture to them which can pair nicely w/ chukkas and other casual or country footwear. Most Chelsea boots are sleek in structure and work best w/ wool fine trousers, jeans, chinos, thin wale cords ( no thick or chunky materials).

    As I start out my boot collection, I got a pair of black chukkas from Thursday. I was going to just barely polish them, but then, after a glass of wine, my old muscle memory from boot camp kicked in and I absentmindedly gave them a full military spit shine. Mirror toes. I took a step back, realizing what i had done, and admired my work. I could actually see myself wearing these with a suit!
    Gentlemen, I believe I have accidentally created an elegant abomination: the formal chukka.

      Where are you from? Also socio-economic background?
      Because that's probably why people are asking you. At least in my experience being from the South and growing up lower to lower middle class in a working class city. From my background "Formal" is a short sleeve collared shirt tucked into acid wash jeans and your nicest pair of work shoes. So it's a cultural barrier to deal with when you work in an environment that leans towards business wear most of the time while your family and friends go to work wearing Dickies pants, work boots, and old t shirts. I was ecstatic when I found this channel because I don't have that generational knowledge on business and formal fashion.

    Chukka boots and desert boots are not the same. Similar but not the same. You mention them like they are the same. Chukkas have rubber or leather soles, desert boots are usually rubber. Chukka have two eyelets and Chukka have three. Also desert have prominent stitching and chuka's stitching is more subtle.

    There's something about COWBOY BOOTS.
    I once saw a publicity photo of Tom Cruise during his TOP GUN days- sitting casually in a formal blue 3-piece pinstripe suit - but with Cowboy Boots.
    'Gutsy move, Maverick!'
    Maverick doesn't wear conservative footwear and neither should we.
    Be Bold !
    We're 'MERICANS. Dammit !

      Brian Hom functionality-wise? Nothing. It's just a nicety. I have a long metal one that while not as elegant as the buffalo one is just as functional.

    One Chelsea boot isn't enough; I believe every man should have at least two, so he can actually walk.
