In this video men's style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro is on a shopping safari! He's hunting for the perfect white tee shirt. Keep in mind Aaron is 5'6" and 152 pounds. Ratings below are between 1 (bad) - 10 (good).
The Review
1. GAP ($11) - small fits pretty well (8), not the softest fabric but it's good (5), quality (8), and OVERALL (7.5)
2. J.Crew ($18) - medium fits larger than he likes, fabric is soft, construction is similar to GAP, it's a nice shirt but nothing super special, and OVERALL (6)
3. Banana Republic ($15) - more stretch than the other two, it's thinner at the neck (in terms of the band), you can tell it's a premium shirt, and OVERALL (9 -9.5)
4. Zara ($18) - the medium is super stretchy and super tight, not comfortable for Alpha, fit (5), fabric (4), value is okay, and OVERALL (5.5)
5. Topman ($10) - medium is roomier with a regular cut, fit and length are good (4), quality is not good (3.5), price (9), and OVERALL (6)
Alpha, if you do more like this, you should do a comparison of pre-wash versus post-wash. You may buy a shirt and love the fit, or not like it so much because it is larger, but post-wash may change whether you like or dislike it. Just a suggestion. Looking forward to this series!
blazers or jackets next plz
Yup! I agree. Do a video about the stuff you bought post-wash, so we can also see the difference
Completely agree here. I have the absolute hardest time with shirts because I'm right between a small and medium, so post wash it can go either way whether I still like the shirt. Just bought some Gap shirts that fit perfectly prewash, but i'm afraid of what they'll be like post wash.
I support this
Great suggestion. Was thinking the very same thing. A part 1 and part 2 follow up sort of thing. That's key to making a good investment.
It's so annoying when a shirt shrinks up too much or even becomes super loose after washing and wearing it a couple of times.
Do a lot more of this please!
John Christian Blanco yes
John Christian Blanco absolutely denim jeans
Milton Gudiel yup! Exactly!
Yes!!! Add graphics too!
When your body is fit, you look good in almost any tshirt brand
Fr he looks good in any
Aaron bro , thank you if you read this comment , from the bottom of my heart I thank you , today after watching your interview videos in your page I followed everything I went to the dodge jeep ram dealer for a interview the man told me that in 40 years of doing the business that not one man has ever walked in a interview wearing a suit , I got me a good suit 2 button grey , I went with black shoes and belt with a blue shirt and pink tie yeah I know kinda bold but anyway he told me he doesn't hire people with no experience and he said since I was wearing a suit he said here a paper to take to the hospital for a drug test... 30 minutes after that drug test I received another call about a manager in training , and nailed it I went from nothing now facing 2 jobs and stressed a little bc not sure what to do but it's a good thing to feel that way , thanks Aaron thank you my man !!!! I've watched you for a very long time ever since you did videos at your house even before you ever did any of the makeover videos anyway thanks man , guys if you read this list in to me sometimes a suit can actually get you a job and I am living prof of it
It's a bit too late man, but anyway, congratulations, hope you are still nailing it!
Update?
update? Did you take the job and if yes, how is the work?
Best wishes regardless though.
Banana Republic and Zara look best IMO. I'd like to suggest maybe have a poll in the 'i' icon (top right) to see which one the viewers dig as a part of the Safari series 🤔
Chirag Thakker Zara fits so gay tho
Chirag Thakker zara has BAD quality though. Even Basic t-shirts
Chirag Thakker great idea with the poll. Also BR was best IMO
Bro Speaking of zara in INDIA it donesn't have the greatest quality and its little pricey too...like who the hell buys 1 tee for 1500
www.greenpeace.org/international/en/campaigns/detox/fashion/detox-catwalk/
this was a great idea
+BluMaan thanks brother! Not going to do crazy views at first but over time I think the series will be cool!
Dude you have great videos too!! Do more hair product reviews.
BluMaan I'm a big fan of your Chanel and I'm looking forward to ordering the cream clay from your line of hair products
God has joined the game
LusciousBoo dat picture of yours trolled me.
I can't imagine how awkward it must have been when you made your first vlog-like video in a public place xD
lol look up rsd tyler
These days its not even uncommon tho
Everyone is filming something or the other
How he shouts in public, he is full of confidence😁😁😁
I absolutely love this idea. Do polos next!
Brad B. Obviously Ralph Lauren
Great video! Do one about finding simple denim jeans
Agreed
Georgi Genchev I watched one of his jean videos and he recommended GAP jeans for simplicity. I picked some up and they are great! Also Levi's has some more simple dark wash ones too.
Georgi Genchev I have a hard time finding jeans that fit well. normally a 36X30 but straight cut and slim don't work, I'm not fucking skinny. Levis, Lee, American eagle, Hollister, pacsun, etc are all for skinny folks. Only Old Navy has decent fitting loose boot cut jeans, but the quality isn't the greatest. idk where else to shop but there. HELP ME ALPHA!!!
Georgi Genchev. I Agree with u
Georgi Genchev yes! 👍
You may want to do a section were you cut to a couple days after wearing and washing it to see how it holds up... Pls continue this series!!
I'm a definite fan of the Alpha Style Safari so plz do more of these vids
You should do more of these! I'm not always purchasing online and going to the mall is my best option to trying on clothing. My wife hates it when I can't find anything and it's getting harder to find the things I can like and feel comfortable wearing. We have a similar body shape and size as well, so I can easily base the size from you-as I've done so in the past. (only speaking for myself) If it grabbed my attention, I'm sure it has others. Great vid!
"The plaine white tees" sounds like the name of a garage band lol
You're right, they are a band! Remember the song "Hey There Delilah" by the Plain White T's that was popular about 12 years ago?
Brian Caraballo yes, everyone remembers.
I think that was the joke...
Great idea Aaron! Definitely do more of these! Would love to see your take on jeans because it's one of the trickiest items to find interms of looks and fit.
razgmk this
That lady who I will name shelia at 5:01 was looking at you like you were on crack talking to yourself😂
Cole Fifield Hows life a year later Cole?
a surprising amount of people stared at him i dont understand why people look at him like he is insane
@@mrjackelbox4418 he is shouting at the camera 😂 what'd you expect?
@@kobi-wanaenobi7080 OK that is true😂 but still a lot of people gave him looks
@@kobi-wanaenobi7080 he isn't shouting it sounds like he is shouting because he's right next to the camera
needed this video for a long time
For the next episode do a "Shopping For The Perfect Polo Shirt" You can try buying Polo's from Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Lacoste, Calvin Klein, Nautica...
Roger Betancourt Wouldn't this be pretty expensive
Roger Betancourt I really like Hilfiger Polos
I hate polos the style in my opinion is horrid
stefimon alpha has a Rolex I don't think it hurt he's wallet too bad.
Roger Betancourt hmm the expensive options
Loved the finger clicking when he got the right size😂
great I was just recently looking for a plain white shirt and it took me forever to find the right fit. Now i thought: hey let's see if alpha finds a better one...but he eventually ended up with the same store I bought mine in the end....But hey, at least I can say alpha is knows his stuff
I bought a Banana Republic t-shirt after watching this, and it's one of the best I have ever owned; really soft, doesn't sweat too easily, and has a great fit
First of all,i love this series so please continue doing them because they are AWESOOOOOOOMMMEEEE.....ooh by the way please next time go for black shorts's shafari...;)
Keep doing this series. I like it.
4:15 when he realized it's not the camera
So happy i came across this video last night. Ended up buying all 4 colours of the shirt (thankfully they were on sale!)
Do perfect workout clothes next
Jacob Nelson Yes Yes!!!
do more! and hunt for the perfect pair of jeans (one video for dark wash one for light wash)
+Anthony A sounds good!
alpha m. yes please!
alpha m. agreed a jeans video would be great
Yes!!!!!
Naked and Famous. They are made in Canada from a Japanese fabric and they have every type of fit
Chinos, jeans, shorts, button-ups... Basically everything! I think videos like this are incredibly helpful.
Thank you Alpha. Banana Republic has the only white t's that fit well and most of all least see through shirts I have ever had the pleasure of owning.
Finally he is back to OG content and not selling any other shit!You've missed Armani Exchange:(
Dmytro Fonotov Armani is on his list of brands not worth the money. He's got a video on it.
Tackleberry Armani Exchange is cheaper and affordable line of clothes for young crowd.About same price as JCrew or BR.
You should go hunting for the best pair of jeans next, Alpha! Great video!
Oscar Ortega I agree
He already did that
I recommend Gap crew neck T-shirts. Great quality, great fit ( I use medium and I’m 5’9” tall ) reasonable price and many colors to choose from.
For sure keep doing these. This is one of the reasons I've got hooked on you and been following you. Keep them coming Alpha.
Chinos, jeans, odd trousers, henleys, jackets, dress shirts, casual button ups.
5:01 That woman looks like she saw an alien
She smelled the tiege hanley
ImightyBlade lolssz yeah probably
+ImightyBlade lolssz, that comment needs more likes inmediately!!!
she mirin
Yes. More of this please. Shopping sucks and I trust your judgement.
Loving the new video series!! Your confidence vlogging in public is unmatched. lol
Safari for black jeans next!!!
more videos like this pleaseee, awesome video!! you should also start vlogging
Incredible to see no teige hanley comments here, just genuine opinions about style and clothes. Awesome series Aaron. Next, Polo t shirts please.
YES! more of these please! I also like that it wasn't sponsored... felt more real because of it.
This is actually is a really good idea and really informative! Keep the series going alpha!
When you are early and there are no Tiege Henly jokes!
[LB] Free to Use Music yeah same here
Alpha your going to absolutely kill it with this series I'm telling you now free of charge!!
Jeans for sure!! Love the channel, been watching for 2 years now and still dig the passion and aggressive tackling and writing
Would love to see more of these, great job Aaron!
This is an amazing video! Thanks Alpha for making it. One for denim jeans would be amazing.
I laughed when you walked out of American Eagle saying it made you feel old. I can totally relate :). Thumbs up for keeping that in there and your honesty.
Thanks just what I was looking for, the struggle to find the perfect shirts is tough and I’m super picky about the fit. Thanks again!
Do men's essentials on chinos (:
alex pozos YESSS.
And Oxfords too
Shouldve included Uniqlo; best one I've found!
Sahil Handa true.. but Uniqlo doesn't exist in GA
Sahil Handa agree (from Italy)
I live in Atlanta, but only saw Uniqlo when I went to Japan 😂
uniqlo t shirts are the best
Lauren Nichole Uniqlo exists in the Internet though. I too wholeheartedly endorse Uniqlo. They are fantastic!!
I enjoy J. Crew's fit's and styles overall, however BR is ace as well! Up next, a casual button down?!
I liked the banana republic and zara one. They looked like higher quality without wrinkles and I like the stretchy feel.
You are fucking ripped. I mirin brah
Love this new "safari" type of videos. Definitely do one on finding the perfect chinos. Greetings from Argentina.
I have a suggestion! Ever think of doing a travel video? Seoul, South Korea is like the fashion capital of asia and has a load of good cheap fashion. Try doing a vid on shopping in Korea!
We can all agree the perfect tee is from Zuniga's ESNTLS
Ben Everett but they lack restocking
I wish I could find a good cheaper alternative
I like these kind of videos where your out in public
You make shopping look easy
Awesome idea! Maybe tank tops to wear as an undershirt could be an episode.....
You wouldn't be Alpha M without a 3 button Henley episode!
More of that 👍🏻👍🏻
great idea sir.. please do more videos... I am pretty bad with shopping and choosing clothes.
I love your videos.. love from India
I don't comment on videos often, but I had to say something here because I totally want you to keep doing these men's essentials safaris. This video was awesome!
Late to the game but this is one of the best videos. Real life shopping bc that’s the point. Once we agree that we need to own a plain white tee, we need to know how to buy one.
do chinos or an Oxford next
That moment when you realize that Alpha is getting old.. But looks Forever 21 with Tiege Hanley! (see what I did there? ;))
p hatz mope
teaching mens fashion already did a video like this already and kind of has a series like this.
however here are a few suggestions for future safari videos:
-take a poll of what kinds of clothes they want to see
-take a poll of where they would like you to shop
-fitting pre and post wash (previously suggested by a top comment)
-side by side compiled visual comparison of each of the product
-visual text to detail your ratings on the aspects of the clothing. example fabric: 8 out of 10
-closing the video with rankings 1,2 and 3
Alpha, you could do a visual summary of the rating for each product after the review, somewhere on the screen. I personally think, that it would be a nice touch to this type of videos. Have a nice day!
Do polo!!!!
Ministry of Supply is gonna win.... lol.
I see this a really nice way to improve the quality of your channel as well as it's popularity, Really Smart Move There 👍
Excellent choice Alpha! I've been buying black/white stretch tees from BR for years. They last long and the fit is comfortable , like a second skin.
I liked the idea, keep doing more. Maybe do a episode of the best bottom up shirts under 50 bucks or something.
Very enjoyable! Can you put the name of the brand on the screen when doing the final review? That would be great. Keep it up.
4:15 ahahah. "HOO the camera is not on the mirror, let met turn arround ahahahah and snap my fingers
I think the zara super slim fit t shirts are the best fitting clothes I've ever purchased
Great AlphaM video after a long... great to see videos like this!! 👍🏻👍🏻
it must be so awkward to go around the mall and talk so loud to a camera about white t-shirts
Rukataku
Why not? all Americans seem loud to me, probably because I'm english though.
Rukataku It always amazes me how normal it seems to be in America and the west in general to go around public spaces and film yourself talking to a camera. I can't imagine doing that in my city without people constantly thinking I'm mentally challenged. This might be the first video of this kind where I see people looking at the camera like it's not the most common thing ever.
Rukataku who cares what others think
koudacyen Heard an English person talk and my god. Your vocal cords are freakin amazing. Really loud n audible
opturk turok
lol well me and my family arn't loud, nor are my and their friends, could be we ignore loud people because they tend to be drinkers and trouble makers, except American tourists, I can hear an before I enter a shop lol puts a big grin on my face. because slot of programs and films are American when I hear the accent in person it's just entertainment, must be the same when you hear us, although we're not the posh sounding buggers you might've thought we'd sound like hmm? lol
All sorts of men's fashion but stores like JC Pennys, compared to let's say Macy or MensWare House to Walmart places like that.
When he's trying on the shirts it looks like he's floating 😂 I can't unsee it...people with OLED screens will most likely understand more
Whenever Aaron clicked his fingers all I could think was 'Nintendo Switch'. Haha. Exactly the same tone! 😂👍🏻
just make it clear is it shopping safari or style safari 😂😂
iBruuutal your grandma safari...asswipe
Himanshu Shah Bhai is Salo ko MAA bahen ki Gali do hahahaha..samajh Nahi payenge
shivi tw bhai inko english me dega to jaada shi h...smjega tb to bura lgega ise
iBruuutal fckkk off
Awesome content and the new format is refreshing! ALPHA MY MAN!
we need more of this series
I literally could not do these vlogs in public. Alpha is shouting lmao. Informative and love the video; just takes a special sort of confidence and extroversion lol
I've always felt like Target's Mossimo Athletic Fit T-Shirts were perfect. 10 bucks a pop.
RicoSuaVe very true Rico
RicoSuaVe I’ve found some really well fitting target jeans and chinos. If the material looked a bit nicer I’d definitely get them. However at the price they have things for they’re really good
THE PERFECT DRESS SHIRT!!!
I'm liking this concept and hope you incorporate it into future videos from time.
Hell yeah the banana republic one is a great quality one the fabric the fit and the quality even after a few washes your color won't fade looks like youll have a new shirt on all the time !
What? Alpha, the ZARA T-shirt looked the best on U!
Aurelius ahh, the Frail masculinity is palpable. Here you go ✨😆
White long sleeve button up, not one that you tuck in!
Patrick Queiroz
you okay dude? just went to your channel and saw "sad music" saved to your playlists...
This "Shopping Safari" is interesting!! Please do one for White Dress Shirts
I love these series! I personally hate going to the mall and trying on bunch of different clothes and this video just narrows it down for me! Keep them coming
This is such a good idea.
Thank you this is exactly what I was looking for
This should definitely be a regular series, loved it!
great idea, but perhaps to mix it up you should include outlets like walmart and other supermarkets that sell clothing
Tiege Hanley forms a t-shirt if you rub it across your chest
yo alpha its really a cool concept!
GREAT video Aaron!! I think I speak for us all by saying we would LOVE to see more of these!
