In colombia those are called chips are called "platanitos", I bought multiple packages before coming back to europe, and probably ate half of them before I got home lmao
They’re very popular in Nigeria too
@@FashionRoadman Hey, a woman in Nigeria wants to buy some rare B23s. I guess you or your family already had experiences with sending out a package to Nigeria. If true, can you recommend a delivery service company? Greetings
ToykoVersace a lot of the delivery services are very dodgy ngl. Only had a good experience ordering on amazing ngl
I'm a man that loves wearing women's pants as they fit better and have way more interesting silhouettes. Definitely don't be afraid to try new things!
100% agree. Style is all about experimentation
Y’know what’s so strange? I’m the opposite. I’m a woman who likes wearing men’s pants because of the specific silhouette it gives me. It’s so interesting how deep and different an individuals taste level can be. :)
It took me almost 5 years to finally get to a style that I like. For any of you who doubt it don’t give up;)
Baked plantain chips are chips made from green plantain. Plantains are members of the banana family, but more starchy and savory in taste. Unlike bananas, they aren't sweet and are lower in sugar.
M SL my grandmother used to boil these for us when I was a kid. So good 😋
Your definition is halfway there haha. There are many types of plantain chips. If you use green plantain then the chips won’t be as sweet and will taste more savoury. If you use yellow plantain like the ones on the video, they taste a lot sweeter.
Definitely right about plantain and banana being from the same family
Great talk by Micah, really well done. You can see him getting better and better in talking in front of a camera. Keep it up
Thank you so much! The hope is to keep evolving and getting better and better
I feel like im too afraid to try different styles and see what looks good on me but after this I will play around more with silhouettes, patterns, colour and clothes in general. Really appreciate the video 👍
Perfect! That’s what the point of this video was for. Trying out new things will help you find what works for you!!
Took a break from UA-cam for a little while, glad the contents still great. And 21 k subs💪. Massive respect to both of You🙂
Thanks, really appreciate it. Glad you came back to the channel
I’ve been into vintage adidas clothing lately. I love finding stuff in thrift stores, eBay and grailed
You kept your word and made this video at my request! Thank you so much! ❤
Love the vibes brother🙏🏻 based of my experience I really enjoyed an article on Medium called What is style by Independent Style I think and generally finding small articles
I’m in love with this channel! 😍 Great content

Bro idk if they have them in the UK but chili lime Zambas are THE SHIT. Been eatin those as a kid and are the best plantain chips you could ever eat
Man kicked it off with the plantain 💀💀
We different like that 🤣
I’m a big boy not in terms of height and I really struggle to find pieces that I like that also suit my body style.
I’m way taller than the average so I have the same issue in terms of finding it difficult to find my size. You just gotta look really hard
The Fashion Archive that’s true I do find myself spending hours upon hours looking online for clothing
The Fashion Archive also what boots were you wearing on the show studio Craig green vid?
Harrison Davis Khan they’re chunky leather boots from Arket
@@FashionRoadman thanks man keep up the great work
Asiko pepper flavour is the superior plantain chips
You gotta check out the plantain chips with pork skins 🔥🔥🔥
Haven’t tried these before, gotta try them
Fam. Out in Sri Lanka we got rare plantain chips. Fresh baked of fried chips. Street food snack tings ya dunno
LOL you got that rare rare
subscribed!

Did you see the balenciaga fall precollection look book?
I certainly did
ID on the sweatshirt?
unfortunately most designers make items for taller and lankier people, not shorter and stocker people. does anyone know any designers who’s clothes suit shorter stocker guys?
James Steel Richie Le’s channel got your back
Tops/jackets that are Cropped in the body, high waisted trousers. Those types of clothes will really help proportionally with someone who’s shorter. If you don’t mind fitted clothes, they’d also tend to look proportionally better as opposed to oversized silhouettes, which can just end up making you look shorter and stockier. At the end of the day, wear what you enjoy, and it isn’t that serious.
do y'all know where i can find/brands that do simillar trousers like maharishi sno pant? im female but i dont mind buying mens as long as the waist fits (27w)
i have a pair of some early 2000s hishis that i've fallen in love with and wanna wear more stuff like that
or just any recommendations for brands i should look for that do cool, unique baggier style trousers in general
I’m sure plenty of people have some ideas for similar brands but maybe look towards Japanese designers such as undercover, Mihara Yasuhiro or Kapital. Also, don’t forget you can maybe buy W28/29 and then get a nice staple piece belt to rock all the time
Buy the smallest waist then go to tailors and get them to take the waist. I know it's extra cost but the way it is. I'm 5'8 and often have to get my trousers hemmed. It's just life and move on.
Plantain CRISPS the waviest
Man said crisps yu na. Oga it’s “chips”
@@FashionRoadman you right, you right, but I like mixing in the British hahaa
What do you do for a living to afford these clothes?
Don’t have the Ps to explore can’t lie
You don’t even need much money. You can borrow/try on your friends clothes. Or go into stores and try things on in the changing room to see how they look on you. Both High end stores and vintage. There’s plenty of possibilities 🙂
Ayo use to take my p-chips in boarding school (fun times)
The good old times
Plantain chips don't bang. You gotta go with regular Plantains.
Not sure about this one chief, they both bang
"Plan-tin" >>>>>>>>>>>> "plan-tain"
Lies
@@FashionRoadman I speak nothing but the truth lol
Chili flavoured plantain chips r nicer 😭🤷🏾♀️
I thought mans was a face filter 🥺
LOL
Banana chips 😬
Not sure about that one 🤔
Things that this guide is lacking:
1. Actual detailed research into the aesthetics and silhouettes that you like e.g. being into punk so therefore researching and collecting vivienne westwood, undercover and raf.
2. Having a curated personal aesthetic, you can't just fling together random brands and designers, personal style is all about reference. No offence to the way you dress but its literally just designer clothes mashed together with no cohesiveness just simply colour matching.
3. Stay off social media and be inspired by art, architecture, photography, music, film and more :)
Ultimately this is a 10 minute UA-cam video, it can’t have EVERYTHING. It’s more an entry level for people to understand how to start developing their style. But I don’t really agree with what you said - however, each to their own opinion. In regard your your first point, the thing about research into aesthetics is that it limits you into one box. The reason people such as ASAP Rocky or Luka Sabbatt are held to high acclaim for their style is due to their ability to delve into more than one style or aesthetic and being versatile with it. Yes some days I might wake up and feel punk/rock but other days I might not. What am I suppose to wear on those days? Fashion is partially a reflection of mood and you as a person, this is something that is constantly changing - that is why I personally don’t agree with limiting yourself to one box.
For your second point, I understand what you mean by reference but there are literally 365 days in a year. You slap on clothes over 365 times each year, not every single outfit can be a reference to something, that’s not just realistic - especially for someone who is trying to start developing their style, which is who this video is primarily aimed at.
For your third point, I completely disagree. You said stay off social media and take inspiration from art, architecture, music... but these things literally ARE what social media is in this day and age. There are art accounts, music accounts, architecture accounts. Infact, you can be more in touch with these things than you have ever been able to as not only can you hear music, but you can go on a music artists Instagram and literally what they take inspiration from and what inspire them and how they dress etc. Social media is the cumulative and cohesive amalgamation of all these art forms you’ve described.
each to their own opinion - I strongly disagree with yours but someone else might agree. However, like I said, the target demographic of this video is more entry level and the kinds of things you are talking about is more advanced. A video to cover EVERYTHING to do with style would be several hours long 😀
@@FashionRoadman Fair enough you gave some valid points especially with the last point I probably should have said try to stay away from fashion influencers. fashion/style opinions will always be subjective I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. and for the luka and rocky comment they both have a pretty cohesive style. cohesive doesn't mean wearing the same stuff everyday. if you wear to say who wears western boots and Celine you'd think of luka, i'm just advising people to gain a style that personally and solely identifies with them and not the instagram explore page and bait pieces. But yeah completely understand this is for starters in fashion.
S D I think your points are largely valid, but like they just said, I believe versatility is better suited to most people than a firm commitment to a certain aesthetic. I find myself enjoying various aesthetics in my wardrobe, whether it be largely vintage inspired, to Undercover-punk inspired, to contemporary Raf and Yang Li, these three aesthetics are ones I’ve found make me happy after about 4 years of frequent experimentation.
I do agree with your point though that most “style” these days lacks a lot of visual cohesion, and is instead focused largely on colour coordination and branding. I would suggest to people to avoid these types of styles, and rather look at colours, silhouettes, etc. to form their own personal aesthetic.
As far as research goes, I think the research comes with the curation of your personal style, or styles. Raf is what originally exposed me to Mapplethorpe, for example, and now I really love his photography and own several pieces from that collection. If you truly care about the inspiration and references that go into fashion, you will do the research into the clothes you love. The same thing goes for films, music, and art. If you truly care, you’ll put in the effort.
I appreciate your different take and thoughts. Always nice to have a differing opinion on topics such as this 🤘🏻
I hate plantains tbh
😢😢😢
