The scream accompanying those horrid, enforced suits made me smile. "I wouldn't decorate my apartment in the way that a five-year-old would... why would I want to dress like one?" Well put!
Haha that's the standard uniform in the UK sadly!
Last Saturday night, my wife and I went out, and we decided to dress up. She wore a nice dress and I wore wool charcoal pants, a white shirt with a black tie, a burgundy waistcoat, black and burgundy saddle shoes and a camel overcoat. I felt like a million bucks. We got compliments all night as we were the best dressed people wherever we went. It's a real self-esteem booster receiving compliments from others.
It really as! And dressing up as a couple is a wonderful feeling and underrated way to show your appreciation for one another
“Every act of beauty is a revolt against the modern world”
I've been a practicing attorney for over 30 years and own an array of suits. I almost always wear a pocket square. I'm very comfortable with my own sense of style. A few counter-points to the idea of always choosing to wear a suit. 1) A suit simply isn't always appropriate. If it is out of place in your field of work, wearing one will make you stand out as clueless. 2) It is an absurd false dichotomy to suggest that sartorial choices are defined by the polar opposites of a formal business suits and cargo shorts. Elegant casual wear is arguably harder to do well than simply selecting a suit from the wardrobe, but the well dressed man knows how. 3) You have to possess a sense of occasion. Putting on a three piece suit to do the groceries or attend a weekend poolside BBQ will make you look like an attention-seeking twit. That is all.
I fully agree with you, Roger. A suit is certainly not always the best dressed choice. However, I also have a feeling that Ritchie was using the term ‘a suit’ as shorthand for being well-dressed on the whole
Wao you are exactly what my transformation is going through 😅, past 3 years of my life after college graduation, a significant increase in income and quality of life, I’ve been listening to channelss like the Chap’s Guide, Kevin Samuels and other well dressed, self improvement gentlemen, and you are the final touch 🤌🏼 the icing on the cake! 😂 high discipline, organization, self-upkeep, continuous routines of mind, body, lifestyle and maintenance of where you live and work is essential for respect from others, love and success in life!👏🏽
It has been easy for me because my father had all his suits tailored made in London in the 1950’s (I’m British) in the classic Savile Row style when having your suit made for you wasn’t the vast expense that it is now, and I’m exactly the same size and build as him, so I inherited them all and they are beautifully cut to flatter the male figure, and I get many compliments from people on the street on my suits and tweed jackets and it’s all because of my father’s good taste.
Hello Gent Z, Congratulations on another enlightening presentation. My learning curve throughout my 65 years including as a former officer of U.S. Marines and especially the last four years have been very steep. My experience includes learning then knowing my sartorial responsibilities. U.S Marines do not compromise on the details of our uniform. The last four years and especially this year 2024 taught me one more lesson that I believe directly relates to gentlemanliness, to how we men behave and present ourselves, and perhaps also to philosophical, if not to spiritual notions. We men and women must KNOW THYSELF.
Peace be with you, Joe.
Confidence is also how I feel when I'm in my favourite suit and know I look good!
Same here, Simon! Thanks for your comment.
@@Gent.Z Thanks for your channel- your videos are interesting and informative!
Whenever i have had a well made suit that fitted perfectly, it was so comfortable to wear and just easy. Not the distraction that it is made out to be but just a standard of dress that makes me feel more comfortable. I argue that a well fitted suit is as comfortable as any leisure wear or more casual attire.
So true! I wear sport coats, dress shoes and classical wear to represent some semblance of dignity. culture and masculinity. Not following a loser mentality. Tired of seeing adult men dumbed down and looking like kids in sweats, sneakers and loungewear.
I love my jeans but in the office I hated dressing down to fit in with a t-shirt and jeans 'uniform' . For the next business role it will be a well tailored suit, quality shirt, silk tie and polished English shoes. My dad made his way up to a management role and his advice was to dress the best you can afford in business. The corporate polyester laptop rucksack will definitely be left under the desk and a leather bag employed. First impressions count.
The best part of my day is when I am preparing to put together my suit outfit for work. I am always intentional about the way I dress and lately, I have been hearing a lot about wearing a suite during casual outings and I thing I am going to pursue this idea.
1:25 10/10 for the zuckerberg roast😂
Yes he’s top of my ‘worst dressed men’ list 😅
The style in The Gentlemen was inspiring to say the least, especially Theo James and Giancarlo Esposito. A video analysing some of their outfits and theme of the style would be great. For example, I noticed no one wore black. It was primarily shades of browns and blues instead.
Classic style on a man is a must, and an attractive manner to stand out as an individual.
For me, a properly fitting and proportioned suit is simply the most flattery and elegant clothing I can wear, and that's probably true for most men
Great video. I feel fearless when I wear a suit and the right shoes. I know my day is going to be great when I knot the perfect knot on my tie the first time. CHEERS!!
Great video as always and the jacket you’re sporting is phenomenal! 👌🏽
Another informative video that was an enjoyable watch. It took me 50 years before I finally realized the benefits of dressing properly. I agree with you that dressing properly can improve ones confidence. I never knew that Guy Ritchie had such a sense of classic style.
Thank you, sir!
I truly loved listening to this presentation on classic men's style. I am in my 50s and have embraced this since in my early 20s when I went to work in the city wearing a suit. I have always aspired to dress well. I would say today I have never dress better than in the past. I think that has to do with more knowledge on classic style, the ability to afford custom clothing (shirts/jackets/pants), and online shopping for discount and pre-owned items (ties / cufflinks, etc.)
Complete . Great channel bringing back some class 👌👏
Another Excellent vid. The Mod credo is always at the forefront of my mine. Look Sharp Think Sharp Be Sharp!!
I like it!
Great content again Z, confidence is competence and this is what wearing a suit indicates.
Confidence comes from intelligence and healthy testosterone levels. Most men wearing a suit are going to look like little boys playing dress up.
Ready. I'm ready for pretty much anything when wearing my suits. I think it affects the way I feel and thus reflects the way others behave around me. (It shouldn't, but it does.) I'd also add that getting shirts made to measure or bespoke (if you can afford it). I do the former as I am tall and slim. Not that expensive, but the fit is so much better that it makes me feel better. I've only just discovered your content. You are a fair bit younger than me, but I like your content/ethos.
Great video, I just subscribed. I was also really impressed with your video on safari jackets
I'm very excited with the new Netflix show coming up. The Gentlemen is my favourite movie from Guy Ritchie and one of the reasons for this is the diversity of clothing styles.
I was wondering with you would make a analysis of the character's clothing by each episode, because if you do, I'm going to watch every single one of the videos for sure.
A firm hand shake from Brazil. (the reason of the UK flag photo is because this account is the one i use to watch only English speaking channels.)
Great video--Guy gets it right.
Years ago, I worked in an ad agency on the account side so I always wore suits--more by choice than for compliance. The creatives all stayed in the office and wore more casual clothing. One of our colleagues got married and we were all at the church before the service. Everyone had on their best suits and a female colleague looked around at all of us and said "Wow--everyone cleans up nicely! Except for Eric.... he looks the same as he always does." It was not really a criticism but a compliment of sorts; because I always dressed up I looked the same as ever. Everyone else brought their A game while every day was my A game.
I well remember the black crepe double breasted Armani chalk-stripe suit I was wearing with a crisp white shirt and a silver Macklesfield tie, white Irish linen pocket square and black double monks before they were a thing.
I love your elegant accent and impeccable diction. I want to look the way you speak.
Thank you, sir. I will be doing a video on elegant speaking skills soon
I will look forward to it. Our speech and manners help define us!
You are very well spoken!
As always, you’re producing solid content 😀
How do I feel when smartly dressed?? Confident and comfortable. My wife has noticed how people approach and interact with us when out in public since I've made the effort a couple of years back to lose weight & dress better. She even accessorizes to match me on special occasions. Such as matching tartans at Highland games and matching leathers/metals on our shoes, belts & (her) bag for evenings out. That tells me she not only likes the way I dress, but trusts my sense of color, textures and style.
Hey man I love your videos and I came across your channel relatively recently. I am 20 years old and a College Student. I would like to dress better, but like you point out in this video I have previously chosen to style my wardrobe based on the group. I would like to create a new wardrobe and dress like a man. Do you have any recommendations for brands/clothes for someone on a limited budget? I appreciate this channel very much, and I look forward to watching more of your content.
Just earned a new subscriber with bell notifications on. I fell out of wearing suits/dress shirts for a while. Need to take care of my dresscode again
And I feel sharp and professional when dressing well
I've lost count of how many times I've watched that particular Joe Rogan podcast.
Guy narrows down our satorial Philosophy to the wire
He really does have a great understanding
@@Gent.Z my favourite part is when he explains to Joe that the corporate word has robbed you from having to enjoy the suit. And you mentioned this in your video cos the corporate world took away the power of classical menswear by forcing us to wear suits so we could resent it. Guy is telling Joe to "own" the look... Very important
Great video. Already subscribed. Keep them coming!
Thank you, Jon
I feel like I sperate myself from the masses that do not care about style and beauty. I care about living my style. The few occassions that I go out deserve me at my best and looking more than just decent . I simply enjoy doing that. Day to day wear is also abou caring for myself in an artistic way, unlike others that I seem to observe who have no interest or clue.
READY!
When I wear my clothes (I have a classic style in the spirit of Ralph Lauren) I am in tune with my thoughts and my sensibilities! It took me years to reach this status of gentlemen with an appropriate education, a constantly advanced culture and a thorough education! You should not want to appear to be one but to be one! The Old Money style is in line with my spirit: classic!
Sounds like we share a similar style philosophy, welcome to the channel, sir.
Great video!
I feel intentional, purposeful and confident when I dress well. 🔥
that JRE episode (956) is worth a FULL listen . Guy Ritchie is a very interesting man; also a black belt in BJJ and has trained in other martial arts. Train hard ~ Fight easy. 🇬🇧
Lovely video. I own the dark charcoal suit - it's a personal uniform. Not kidding, I have it as a 13-piece suit: 3 jackets (1 db, 1 sb notch lapel, 1 sb peak lapel), 3 waistcoats (1 db, 1 sb notch lapel, 1 sb no lapel), and 7 pairs of trousers. All bespoke. Plus of course a wardrobe full of bespoke white and blue shirts and several pairs of fine black shoes and boots. Keeps things simple.
You’re a liar. Your clothes are not bespoke at all. Bespoke is Savile Row; hand made. Your clothes are not.
Amazing video
I just watched a video on Trickers shoes; they are for the suit people but all the makers were in T-shirts and mass produced Sketchers. A few days ago I was in another's bathroom plunging out a toilet filled with toilet paper and fecal matter splashing on my clothes. Not all of us work suit jobs. Today (Sunday) I'll wear dress pants, dress shirt, and a pair of polished shoes to have breakfast with a close friend at our one and only new Denny's. Good friends are worth dressing up for.
BRILLIANT!!!!🥂✨
Confident, and motivated!
I love wearing suits. I don't do the pocket square; I just never thought about it. I do wear sweaters under the suit with a collard shirt. I wear ties occasionally but regardless, I feel like a million bucks in a suit.
Apologies to keep going over this again but can you do one with Jason Statham?
I think he balances gentlemanly behaviou and masculinity very well
Lucky you that you have a narrative that justifies wearing a suit. I work in an IT company and most of folks working there dress like toddlers in their 40s. I love menswear but I cannot help but feeling completely out of place if I bring the garments I enjoy wearing to the office. Even my partner subtlety mocks me if I wear an overcoat that is a tad more dressy than usual. It is tough to be classic out there when it is pouring mediocrity.
You just have to dress a tad dressier step by step to get your coworkers used to seeing you dressed up. Perhaps it will encourage them to dress up too. If everyone’s wearing t shirts and jeans to the office, then step it up with a polo and chinos. If they’re wearing polos and chinos, you wear an ocbd shirt. If they are wearing a shirt and chinos, you can add a jacket. You can layer with sweaters and jackets once it’s cold also.
I feel awesome in my suit.
My one word: Originality.
It doesn't happen to me often to be thinking, what is that guy wearing, not in this case. Thx for the video. The links to brooks brothers unfortunately don't work.
Happiness is a state of mind... SUITS put me in that state instantly.
I agree with everything you say, except you don't need a suit to dress with purpose. Timing and taste is everything. If you and all your followers showed up to an event all wearing suits , the cool guy would be the one in a leather jacket and boots.
I live in a tropical country. I ain't doing that sh*t as much as I would love to look like I own the place.
Can I ask something to the Sartorial crowd? I'm a 40 year old guy who dresses like a toddler* but whenever I look at satorial clothes I imagine feeling trapped in them. This is because I've always worn the cheap stuff probably. As I'm upgrading many parts of my life I'm wondering what direction to choose clothing wise, but there is this big priority for me of movement freedom. I want to be able to dance and do exercise in the clothes I'm wearing right now. I don't mean gym clothes. I mean that when I wear pants I want my legs to easily flow over my bike without constraint. I would love for my knees to be able to reach my chest not inhibited by the pants I wear. This is my question: is there beautiful clothing for men that looks stylish AND has a level of flexibility that enables casual freedom of movement?
* a toddler who regularly gets compliments on outfits, but there is a lot to win
Suit Supply do some very nice Italian high waisted trousers which are very stylish but allow for more natural movement than mid rise trousers (the current norm).
@@epictetusghost1369 Thanks!
I feel royal when I put on a suit. The outfit you see in my pic is an older style I no longer wear. My suits charcoal grey. I do have one charcoal brown and one black blazer that I wear as part of a stroller suit. I always wear a navy blue double breasted waistcoat with a lapel, and a red tie. I try to go as classic, authoratative, and high status as possible. A lot of it comes from my christian faith.
I feel unstoppable
UP MYSELF!
Is it safe to say that being a gentleman is a mindset above all else? In my humble opinion, money doesn't have much to do with it ...
Confidence is definitely the feeling! What ever that confidence that 007 and Trump have, is the thing I want..
Dear Sir, how much older than you was Augustina ?
😊❤🎉💯🙏.
Sharp
If there are dudes out there dressing like Kanye you can wear a suit, just don't be weird with it. And if you do, this comment ain't for you, keep doing you.
I have always embraced beauty in a world of ugliness, nowadays it's almost a revolutionary act!
When i am wearing my DB Suit i feel armoured.
I always say, I never dress-up. I only dress down. Dress-ups is what kids play.
4:17 - ‘I imagine it’s like a beautiful woman putting on a dress for the first time’. Be careful not to look and sound like Swiss Tony from The Fast Show 😉
What is wrong with black suit,is not mention and consider out.
I found them quite sartorial.
charcoal or navy. leave black for the undertaker.
Guy Richie's suits generally look like Debenhams c.2002 though, he needs to find a decent tailor
Except i live on a tropical island with year round warm climate. Wearing a suit would really look out of place.
I work in an industry where there is a liberal orthodoxy that dressing 'too well' reinforces a power dynamic between ourselves and our clients.
What're you thoughts on that?
Sounds like an industry where weak men thrive. Are you weak? Why do you work in that industry?
Only thing about dressing expensive and sharp around kids is they are chemical hazards. And I say that with all my love as I work with kids. But dressing in a suit is not an option as I don't want it to be damaged. After work or when im not working in the group I do dress up more. Although I mostly do wear a shirt with jeans or a poloshirt. A blazer is fine but I don't wear that indoors with the children.
But dressing well, feels better. More in line with myself and how I want to be perceived.
Joe Rogan was correct in saying that wearing a tie is potentially dangerous, even for a gentleman.
He was. Although Ritchie was also correct in saying that you can try your best to avoid fights. Or just remove it before one ;)
Agreed, a tie will get you killed in a street fight. At social events I take mine off as soon as possible.
@@Gent.Z Indeed ...
@frasierfrasier1769 our social events differ markedly. Mine don't regularly devolve into fights.
@@frasierfrasier1769 🙄
Douglas Murray is the epitome of what a gentleman should look like in a suit, or semi-formal wear.
I disagree with him here and there, but he really is well-spoken and quite stylish.
He’s gae
Love his clothes...don't care for his movies.
Same here, to be honest!
wearing a suit is great if at least a few others around you do likewise. however, if you're an eagle among pigeons you'll stand out too much and it's difficult to pull off for the typical man.
impossible to pull off. don't do it. just be better dressed.
@@3581tossit agreed. if everyone else is a 6, be an 8.
Highlighting Guy Ritchie as a Madonna appendage is such a crime to his filmography.
Your wife is a reflection of who you are. He makes great films and I can separate the art from the artist. That doesn't mean I have to respect the man.
must be boring to think mostly on dressing, but not on something important you bring to the world, like Mark or other real mens do. I feel comfortable mostly in technical gear like ecco exostrikes and smth like Acronim up. suits are 1) useless for different terrains and weathers 2) overall boring and lack on crucial functionality for common life 3) outdated in materials comfort
Dressing up is one of the more counter-cultural things we can do.
Most of what you say is right, yet your illustration choice with Jacob Ree's Mogg is out of place. The guy probably knows more about wearing a suit, and tailoring than most other people ever will. Litteraly went to Eton, and notoriously has his suits made in Saville Row. He dresses conservatively, and may not always look like a Playboy, but hey, it's not like he is in his early 30's either, and has a wife and 6 kids at home.
You're completely right about Mogg. But the irony is that, despite having the background of a gentleman who would know about suits and has one of the best tailors in the country, he still looks terrible. It goes to show that style relies on your own mindset and taste as much as anything.
Saw him clumsily describe this on Joe Rogan and sounded nonsensical
Rule number one to dressing well.......knock up Madonna.
ew!
Very sorry, the impulse to wear a flowery pocket square is, to all intents and purposes, the same as the impulse to dress like a teenager. Hence, I 'own' my suit by not having a pocket square. I dress well out of respect for myself and for the world, and a pocket square is superfluous and vain. Vanity is as unsuitable to a man past fifty-sixty as cargo shorts and flip-flops: the latter may be suitable on the beach but the former are unsuitable anywhere.
@ castel, Guy is very stylish as a man should be. I can remember when Marks & Spencer staff wore suits and name badges, now their uniform is tracksuit tops 🤦♀️🤦♀️🙄👎 so sad how this world is declining, in every way
@@princebuster93
And Fortnum&Mason's probably no longer wear coat&tails, as they did in my youth.
Well dressed though Mr. Ritchie may be, it takes more than clothing to be a gentleman. There is a grubby quality to Mr. Ritchie. For context, Mark Wahlberg displays that same grubbiness. In my humble opinion, Joe Rogan is far more of a gentleman - he just hasn't gotten a grip on the POWER of clothing. Yet ...
well put. to wear a suit well, a man should have calmness and an aura of self control. Richie and especially wahlberg seem too ready to throw a punch.
@@onsenguy Indeed ...
don't care for any of the three
