A true gentleman wears his underpants UNDER his pants.

"A gentleman never pays attention to the fleeting trends of fashion." And with that, good sir, you have earned a thumbs-up.

I am in my 7th decade and I have always worn a suit or sports jacket, have 16 waistcoat, 3 pocket watches and 28 ties. When my wife and I are invited out to parties, wedding reception etc the younger men always without exception say to me things such as "I wish I could look as good as you." My reply is always the same "Go to the shop and buy yourself a suit, shirt, tie and shoes and you will look like me." It is amazing how differently a well dressed man is treated when out and about.

Fashion is for followers, style is for leaders.

Lint rollers have a reputation for leaving a sticky residue which in turn attracts even more dirt and dust. Better to use a proper clothes brush.

The one thing a gentleman never wears is a dress.

A gentleman never wears a chip on his shoulder

Your advice is the way I was raised. I don't understand men that obviously couldn't care less about their appearance.
My father taught me that _"You never know who you are going to run into when you're out. Dress accordingly."_ It astonishes me that men need to be reminded how to be men.
Thanks for the great content. Keep it up.

Thank you. I did not imagine that anyone could present topics like this in our present time. I am 63 years old. All the men and women I saw when I was young, and who are still in my memory, were elegant and cared a lot about their appearance, the way they spoke, ate, sat, and walked. And now I cannot accept what people wear in the street and in public places, the clothes that we were ashamed to wear at home. I tried to keep up with people in what they wear, but I could never. Yes, I wear jeans and a T-shirt sometimes, but my eyes can never get used to those. The chaos and neglect in which I see people. I do not like exaggeration in elegance, but I cannot wear shorts and sandals like this in the street. I think the world has lost a lot of beautiful things now, and this is completely sad. Thank you.

As a Texan that has a traditional Southern upbringing among the United States that is an Xennial, I am shocked yet refreshed that this video exists. I have worn a suit or sportcoat and tie to Church, business meetings (with a briefcase not a backpack) and social events since I was 18. While most people appreciate it, there are unfortunately a lot of immature men from Gen X to Z that not only refuse to grow up but will be confused at or even ridicule those that do.
As my father taught me long ago, “anybody can wear anything, but it takes an effort to be a gentleman.” It’s about showing respect not only for yourself, but for the social, business or religious engagement you are invited to or are participating in. You are showing people you value them and what they are doing. Presentation matters.
Good video and good tips.

Grandpa gave me a shoeshine box at 9 yrs old. He was old school NYC sharp dapper dresser with creases so sharp, they could cut a loose leaf page. Thank you Grandpa.. thank you mom

My Victorian Era grandmother divided the world into 'polished' and 'common'. When I showed up from college in the mid-70s, she looked at my long hair and T-shirt with overalls and remarked, "Honey, It takes no effort to be common."
I decided that she had a point. That point stuck with me my entire life.
I have learned that good manners always require self-discipline and self-discipline, practiced over the years adapts the mind to accomplish great feats. A self-disciplined person garners trust, and all value flows from trust.

Very sweet to see a young chap trying to communicate style to his generation

I used to wear a backpack and after hearing fashion influencers criticize them so much, I decided to change it to a messenger bag, and personally I found it much more difficult to use and more uncomfortable. I really want to buy a minimalist black backpack and start using it.

As a 70 something man it is quite encouraging to see a gentleman from the younger generation presenting this information. Well done, and thank you.

Sweat pants, yoga pants ( their names should clarify their purpose ).

Baseball cap backwards.
It makes grown men look like 12 year olds.

A classy watch speaks volumes about the taste of the owner!

[jimsmith]

There must be many more, including some hats/baseball hats worn improperly and inappropriately, but you nailed the major ones.
