Yes before I went from the nike/ cargo short getup (I'm in 10th grade) to not exactly suiting because that'd be illogical for a primarily school student, but dressing up more, In between I went thru a street style phase, (picked up some fly joggers, and some outlandish hoodies😂) I realized I took interest in my clothing because I needed it to help with my self confidence and I also realized I was most confident the few times I actually wore suits, so i figured maybe if I knock it back a few notches and invest in some quality casual button downs maybe I'll get the same effect? And HALLELUJAH IT WORKED, I'm not saying I'm the most confident guy in school, but I've made bounds from where I started.
Unfortunately when building a wardrobe you have to be prepared to understand that it never ends . And also getting older now I have noticed that i do focus on the minimalistic looks and basic essentials more because the stuff that's out there doesn't always make you look better
Yep. As soon as you feel like you have everything dialed in, you learn about how it can be better.
hieuwey
It is. At some point you'll reach a point when these youtube videos just repeat themselves and already know all you need to know. At that point I think you should stop watching these CZcams Channels and just dress the way you want.
At the end of the day they are just clothes.
my wardrobe is casual and I have five important suit ... I am turist driver in Italy ... I bought my suit in Firenze .. You are very elegant , the shop is amazing , compliment for your work ... bye
I am in the midst of upgrading my wardrobe from the sort of ready-to-wear garments you describe in the video to those that are of a higher quality and better fit. It brings me great pleasure to know that I will save much in the way of time and money by applying these invaluable lessons. Thank you for the brilliant content as always Tanner!
I am a year and a half into my style journey and most of these points hit home. Especially when you said Rakish archetypes love bolder clothing. My summer wardrobe looks amazing but I wish I spent my money on more versatile items considering how low my budget is right now for clothing. I wish this video was out back in March because it took a whole summer of style mistakes for me to realize the first two points. Don't get me wrong, I love my summer clothes but they won't help me in the long run. Superb video Tanner; I've really grown to love your content!
Glad you liked it! Sorry it came so late but hopefully it'll help save you some frustration in the future.
When I was younger I would make the mistake and splurging on some rakish designer jeans or shirt that had no versatility and would sit in my closet.
Thanks to Tanner I now know to splurge on the staples
And we've definitely picked out some great Staples for you!
Love this. I started my style journey the other way. I was already making decent money and as I learned about the importance of quality I decided to dive right in and buy moderately expensive items. Some of it I do not regret; my peacoat and a few of my shoes and shirts are incredible and I love wearing them. However, as I started to brush up against that point where I was unsure about whether or not certain pieces would truly work for me it became intimidating to spend a lot of money on something that I might end up hating, so I sort of stalled out and ended up with a half-done wardrobe of really nice items that gets the job done but is absolutely not complete for all situations.
I think I will try your approach and start cheaper so I can experiment in those areas before I go for the big purchases. Thanks for the video!
Great comment Matt. You'll have to let me know how it works out for you. It should make you much less risk averse!
Great content, Tanner! Wanted to let you know I recently had a MTM waistcoat ordered for me at the B&R Denver store. Kevin was awesome, and even came in on his day off to get me taken care of. Service and quality is second to none! Looking forward to the new selection of quality fabrics you guys will have at your fingertips in a few months.
Awesome to hear that Jeremy! Kevin's one of our best. That brown birdseye is going to look killer!
This video is so underrated. Thanks, Tanner 👌
Great video! I like to think that you have to build a wardrobe and that you cannot buy a wardrobe. Well yes you do buy all of the pieces, but it takes time and research to figure out what you need and what you like. Yes, you can go drop a few thousand and buy a lot at one time, but even then, think of all the seasonal essentials you would miss out on (you're probably not going to get a heavy weight wool trouser from Banana Republic in June). Two years later, I am still buying essentials a piece at a time. My advice for anyone worrying about money is to sign up for e-mail lists of companies that you like. Some post discounts weekly and others only a few times a year. But this reinforces the idea that wardrobes are built over time and not bought.
Great advice on how to save money. I'm also of the opinion that a wardrobe needs to be built, not bought. I've kicked around a few ideas on how to really discuss the concept and plan on doing a full video about it once I've made some more headway on how to really express the idea. Thanks for the comment!
I love your video because I've had this same journey away from the staples and now I am going back to them.
There's something about going back to simplicity. It's extremely appealing.
So true. After getting my beckett and robb jacket and slacks, I am seriously considering making basics over again. I know we talked about making some loud summer stuff, but honestly, well fitting basics would be great.
Yeah man. Let's get you squared away with a few more basics and then go from there!
Tanner Guzy I love navy suits. Mine gets tons of wear currently but doesn't fit that great. But since getting my stuff, i've been wearing my B&R non stop! As you predicted....
If you’re on a budget then go to charity shops. You’ll have to dig and be persistent but you would be amazed what you find in them. Also, if you find something with the label cut it then it’s brand new. High end brands donate but don’t want their name associated with thrift so they cut out the label. If you find that then it’s high end or decent and never been worn before.
Yes this is true. You got to try it out first
My high quality MTM shirt is versetile.
If you got 5 distinct, differently and versetile high quality shirts and pants you got 25 combos right there.
Either tie a larger tie knot or get shirts with a less spread collar
Makes total sense - I had the off the rack Navy suit ect, then I was able to afford a tailored suit - Because I had the off the rack staples I got something a bit different.. Now I feel like I messed up and should of just got a better version of what I already had and would wear more, exactly in line with your advice. I wish i heard it sooner!
Great Advice
100% agree .. seeing as I made the exact same mistake!
I love watching your videos. I hope that you make a copy of the Staples geared towards women in the future.
It is good , I can learn a lot from him.
Spot on. I made the same mistake with dress shirts.
Glad to know you learned from it though, right?!
I've been buying cheap Staples for the third time because after being obese my entire life I recently lost 85 lbs in the last 4 months and I'm still loosing hahaha
Nailed it!
As to the brown DB, maybe even a confused suit. ;)
Can say have gone through phases and wish had this advice when starting out, as then could fall back on that navy and/or charcoal while figured things out, what worked, and learned more about style.
You have a very good presentation style.
Thank you!
one way to get good quality staples on a budget is to buy pre owned ...for instance Ralph Lauren on Ebay. I am virtually rebuilding my wardrobe staples slowly but surely, for a fraction of the NEW price,
Heard about you from The Modest Man. Love this vid!!! Very true. .will def work on it. .thanks man
I think you just saved me a lot of money. Great advices here !
Glad it helped!
I'm" that guy" who has a hard time justifying upgrading what I already have in a lower quality. Buying on the cheap has afforded me trying different looks, some have become my everyday wear.One in particular, is suede chukka boots.I just love the look of them with chinos and jeans. It's just so tempting to try different looks in other colours, that I haven't been able to commit to just upgrading the items I love to wear.
Thank you so much.
I only own two suits one in navy blue and one in charcoal grey both 2 button slim fit single breasted with double vents.
You should get more views
+Joe González Just have to improve some tech specs and TG will get'em. :)
We're getting there! Just keep hitting the like button and sharing when you can. Thanks man!
man i bought your ebook like a year ago and i don't even know how to get it back now this blows, i forgot all about fashion, and now im interested in it again.
Shoot me an email and we can talk. Just go to masculine-style.com/contact
great video! one other thing, this method also "forces" you to discard older stuff. instead of just getting more and wearing few-same.
Yeah that's a great insight!
I bought a Suitsupply navy blue short sleeve polo. It wasn't cheap, but it wasn't necessarily expensive either ($80). I bought it to see how much use something like that would have in my wardrobe. Sadly, that shirt shrunk & I gave it away, but I learned how much use something like that has in my wardrobe. So I recently bought a Burgundy long sleeve polo for ($200) from reputable menswear brand. I sorta went a bit rakish with the Burgundy, but I can fit it into my wardrobe just as much as the navy polo. I always recommend going cheap before jumping into something expensive.
Was it the Friday polo? I'd love to pick up a couple of those!
Tanner Guzy Yep. Got it from Chad Prom (B&Tailor). I think you'll like it a lot, if you got one.
I'll probably eventually end up with one or two. B&Tailor's aesthetic is fantastic, btw.
wow this is fantastic advice
Dude, I have the same 3 piece suit in that exact same colour. WTH,man?! I tailored the suit and purposely asked for this shade of grey because it is unique.
Where'd you get yours?
Tailor on ten, Bangkok.
Great advice!
Yes I have done this before
wow, thanks for the tip man! really helpful
Glad you liked it!
+Tanner Guzy "Less is more", always. :D
Yessir!
couldnt of said it better!
I find I fall in the refined archetype with some rugged and very little rakish yet I live in a small country town where even though I love suits be it a three or even a two piece suit would be so far removed as nobody wears that sort of thing yes I own chinos, dress shirt and I wear those more often then I don’t and I have this amazing medium grey sports coat with a super fine check which I LOVE but hardly ever wear because of how far removed it is. My question is how can I wear this jacket or any jacket without it coming off as “ Too much” thank you
1:30 in, first video of yours I have seen. Subscribed.
I like your content man .. good video .. subscribed
great video !
I’m still reading the Ikea instructions on it my friend.
Love the Vid Tanner I know you discussed that you can get more wear out of the staples I to am realizing that as I am growing in style. My question is how many times in a row can you where the suit at I will say a month, I agree that the more memorable about fits you should space out and I love staple suits because a change of shirt, pocket square, tie, etc. changes the look but how much is too much?
It honestly depends. Look at someone like Don Draper. He only wore about three variations of suits to work for the full run of Mad Men. His casual attire was much more varied and interesting, but his work suits were almost always the same - day after day, week after week, year after year.
Why do you wear wide collared shirts, is because of your head/body type, or is it personal preference
Just personal preference. I have an oval shaped face and can wear most collars, so I play around with a variety of them.
learning a lot
You'd be surprised what you can sell on eBay. Once you learn to let go of older items you can actually finance your new purchases
I’m only in high school and I’ve already found myself doing this.
Tanner, can you put some images of the cloth, i know english but some words i don't understand, thanks
All i have right now are staples and I'm not planning on starting to level up soon, first reason is the budget and secondly cause in my "tribe" these staples already considered as standout lol
Haha. Sounds like you know what you're doing then. It'll be fun to see how they level up and your budget improves though.
Leonard Hadi You can serve as a leader in properly representing your tribe. Embrace it
Dead on!
Tanner I think we all go thru this journey when were trying to figure out our style because that's exactly what i did when i was into street wear i would buy trendy clothes from H&M and Forever21 because i knew they weren't going to be in style next season. Im glad i didn't spend a lot of money on street style because my style has completely changed and now that i know who i am and my style i can invest real money on the things i really like. I do have a question tho if you go from a waist size 34 to a 32 do your jacket shoulder size change as well?
Great question. I assume you're talking about the waist size in your pants, correct? If so, it's not a guarantee that your jacket and shoulder size will increase. I know plenty of guys who pack on 10 lbs and it only goes to their belly and lower back - no change in their chest or shoulders whatsoever.
Tanner Guzy Thanks for the answer. So shoulders won't change unless its a huge weight increase or decrease?
Not necessarily. It all depends on your body. But, it should be a minimal change if there is one.
ok thanks for taking the time to answer Tanner.
I’ve never worn cargo pants and have always dressed like a proper gentleman because that’s what you do.
Hi Tanny, why do u and other style Gurus use the term ''Investing'' when you are referring to spending money on clothing. maybe my financial understanding of what investment might be problem. is there a return in such an investment?
thanks and u have great channel
Kelvin Oasis the return is phenomenal. You could actually save money by buying high quality clothes and dressing well. For instance, the guy who dresses well is going to make a better first impression than the guy who dresses like shit. Good first impression = easier to network. Networking = Higher status & (financial) opportunities . Do you see where I'm going with this? Clothing is a legit investment. The return is phenomenal.
Love all the responses guys!
thanks Hieuwey for the reply, very much appreciated. the problem is this. i have invested in high end bespoke Savile Row suits, 3 stable colours(navy blue, grey, charcoal) all total tens of thousands but is funny that those suits have never pave way of opportunities for me. to be honest the suits that have open doors of contracts and networking are the normal MARK & SPENCER and Debenhams suits, which costed at most £100-£200. so how do i square your points here.
Thanks Alan LT for the contribution, very much appreciated. is funny that my low end off the rack suits from MARK & SPENCER and Debenhams(prices ranges from £100-£200) have gain more opportunities for me than my high end Bespoke Savile Row suits, which runs in the tens of thousands. so how do i square your point with my experiences?
Kelvin Oasis Most people won't be able to tell if your suit is custom or off the rack. When you pay for a bespoke suits it allows more options.
After a certain point, you're paying for functionality rather than just aesthetics. Most people usually have 1 of the 2. You cannot wear most off the rack suits year round because they aren't functional. Also, most off the rack suits do not last very long, so whatever opportunities that suit will go away eventually. Your bespoke suits have at least a decade of opportunities to open to you, while your off the rack only has maybe 2 or 3 years. In my opinion the return on something that is custom is much bigger.
your voice is making me fall asleep.
Love the video! However, I would hope you do not promote indochino anymore. They have screwed over so many people, myself, my father, and father-in-law included. Never even tried to fix the issue as a company. Their reviews reflect this.
You should not waste money but buying something desent like H&M before is probably a good ide.
You got to get some preferenses and feel for a style first.
You need to have a sheep suit before investing in the perfekt one. Practice makes perfect.
There are guys that go to asia and think they might get a suit there, but they newer had one before. Then it must be hard - you do not have any style you like then or opinion.
It's all about being ok with the fact that it's a process. No one is going to absolutely nail it their very first time.
You look like a young Richard Masur.
Haha. I had to look up who that was.
Can believe this happening to me now. Just donate my hot itchy poly pants and buy the same color wool pants. I guess this is fase 2?
Sounds like it's time for phase 2 for sure!
First
Congrats!
why cheap Dress shoes if you want to lose or gain weight? it's not like they won't fit you anymore. they're shoes godammit!
Yes if you know exactly what you like, but the feets change a bit to.
If you never wear black oxfords, there is no point to buy 500$.
Shoes are probably not a good example, you can buy much worse things than well fiting classic quality shoes.
your shirt is bunged at the top, need a better fitted shirt
