Just an anecdote, but based on experience, reminding a girl of her father/grandfather/favorite uncle, etc can sometimes be a real winner.

Good points Antonio. But regarding the bald commercial, some guys can pull it off and should rather than dumping money into products that don’t do anything. Know when it’s time to let go and adjust. Work on confidence and accepting yourself. Work on diet and exercise. Make your body look great and no one will notice your hair.

I'm 24 and slightly thinning, yet I'm also very fit too, moreso than many of my peers. I also have a younger-ish face, but at some point, completely Shaving would look 10× better than just letting it thin on top, and there's no way I'm going to spend money on these products. Sometimes the bald look can make you look younger too, so I completely agree

it depends though on how you lose your hair. I lost my hairin my 30s, and it got really thin in the front and then all over the top and I just shaved it period I'm very fit and probably when I'm in my 50s I'll grow my hair back out period I have a young looking face tdo people definitely notwhen you're in your late 20s and 30s. And it was a definite, a confidence deterrent. If you lose your hair like jude law then absolulily keep it period.

I love this, thank you for the tips. Love a good blazer.

i am 30. while i started with flat fronts listening to you and Aaron, in the last couple of years, I prefer to have moved towards pleats and high waisted trousers because they lengthen the legs and drape better. of course, that also means that I have moved a bit further away from slim clothes, to something a little more relaxed, yet tailored, and that drapes better. fathers and grandfathers are likely to wear pleats but with super baggy pants, including leg openings and full breaks. majority of the people will do flat fronts and slim trousers. when you know and make the decision to stand out, and do it properly, pleats actually make you look like you know what you are doing!

Antonio is right on about cuts, material, fit and what image you are projecting. I am older but I also understand what is classic, what is a fad and what is outdated. Sometimes you can use a dated piece if in the proper setting, like a retro party or a reunion where a vintage piece would help define your era and maybe get a few familiarity smiles and thumbs up for having the guts to do it. That being said, there is a time and place for that and it's not everyday. Pleated pants can help if you are packing a little extra or sit a lot. But that's one or maybe two, not six. I had a tailor redo a classic light grey double breasted real wool suit from the 90s for me, found among the boxes I had been moving around with since the 90s. Jacket still fit like a glove, no changes needed. The pants had two small pleats which are hidden by the jacket so just cut down the leg width a bit and that was it. With the right shirt, tie and shoes it definitely turns heads for all the right reasons. Great advice as always, Antonio. Keep making guys look good!

Antonio, i was in a major store in Tokyo and the pleats are back!

Antonio another fine video and for someone in shall we say an elderly demographic it reminds me that there is still a wardrobe out there for us all Keep going and I hope you and your family have an awesome24

I disagree with about wearing suspenders making you look old. I love suspenders and collect Trafalgar Limited Edition braces which I wear. They have become my signature look and while I’ll admits they area little over the top the alow me to stand out. I’m somewhat of a dandy.

Great advice! I’m always feeling great, but I’m showing some dark spots on my face and have been trying to get rid of them. What do you recommend?

High waisted trousers with pleats aren’t the easiest thing to find these days, so most of my trousers are from Brooks Brothers. The latest pair of jeans I got are reproduction vintage style, because it is so hard to find a good pair that looks good on me. Thank you for your recommendation on Thursday Boots Company. They are my favorite pair of boots now.

You definitely nailed me on my clothes life-extending tricks like trimming threads. Yeah, I think I have to go Kondo on my closet today…

Pleats are good for me because if I have my stuff in the pockets (keys, Smartphone etc) it looks still fine. Trousers without pleats show every item in my pcket, especially my smartphone, which is a compact size phone.

I like inverted pleats, also known as French pleats. The pleat folds toward the center of you, not away.

Pleats are very stylish these days. Especially in the bespoke world. It’s the 80s and 90s baggy pleats with too much crotch that looked awful. I think older guys can pull off suspenders. It’s harder for young men to pull off and was frowned on Wall St (blue/grey suit, white shirt, red/blue tie, black shoes/belt/socks). As for shoes… grown men. No basketball shoes (unless you’re playing ball), no sneakers when going out for the evening, no blocky squared toe shoes, no Work boots (if not working), no Uggs, no sandals with socks, no slippers in public. YES to a good pair of loafers, oxfords, wingtips, in the summer boat shoes or driving mocks. If you’re on vacation at the beach, sandals are OK but upgrade from the TEVO sandals. If you’re on vacation and walking a lot a good pair of running shoes is ok, at least during the day. As evening wear, NO.

Sonny Crockett and Rico Tubbs made high waisted trousers and pleats look amazing and young!

Ironing Dress Shirts. What is the best way to do the sleeves? Lined up with the seam at the top of the yoke, folded and ironed along the sleeve seam or is there another way?

Believe it or not… that RL button down Oxford that’s slightly frayed at the cuff and collar… while not business appropriate, as casual wear, signals money. Grownup private school elitist types. Especially when combined with a pair of well worn boat shoes (I like Rancourt or Sperry) and a Rolex GMT Master II or Patek Phiiippe (preferably handed down from Grandfather).

Pleats and suspenders are quite a comeback now, and they are more really comfortable most of the time. How ironic that gentleman gazette really endorses it 🤣

That's okay, with that, the colors are lacking any appeal. I am old, open minded wanting to dress well, to have the right look for my body style. One day it hits you, your old, age and the body changes, the belly grows, face changes, hair, beard change color all of it. I still need to dress and look sharp. I have watched many of your videos, thanks for sharing them. I still have my clothes cleaned and pressed, even well after I retired. My wife asked why, "I do it for her", peace is priceless. Cheers!

hahaha the affliction ed hardy guys. i never wore either

also consider that items could be upcycled or recoloured (especially cotton), there's no need to fuel a throwaway society. I do feel that there is limited reasons to let a nice leather piece fade, reconditioning and leather care are a must, for some items leather repair may be viable. Neutral coloured timeless clothing is the sweet spot

Plated trousers are a bit difficult to iron.

Getting your hair waxed in your nose and ears hurts a bit but the results are so worth it.

You can't stop yourself from aging. However, staying physically fit, clean and sticking to classic styles, you'll look great. Unless you were born ugly, then it's just too bad and you have my sympathy. Cheers gentlemen.

What is the most comfortable brand of dress shoes?

High waisted, full cut trousers with braces are the only way to go for an above casual look. Wearing belts prevent the proper drape of the pants. Pleated, high waisted trousers should be slightly loose at the button and hang from the shoulders for comfort and perfect drape. Cheers

Though bald, I never lost my hair. I found it in the sink.

It makes me feel good about getting new clothes when I donate my old stuff to the Salvation Army. Some hobo gets a new sport coat for a few dollars while it still has some wear left in it.

The most ironic thing out of all of this is classic pieces makes you look old and out-dated. No one, NO ONE, will look at some graphic tee or studded pants from 10 years ago and think "oh he looks old", because young people these days DO DRESS LIKE THAT. Wearing fitted polo and chinos makes you look old. Wearing classic jacket makes you look old. Wearing a sports jacket makes you look old. If you want to look young, you must follow the trends. That's it

Worn the right way it sure does look good!

the biggest problem with pleated pants is similar to the issue with capri pants for women, or those below-the-knee cargo shorts that were so popular 15+ years ago. They make you look heavier. If you're skinny, looking like you have an extra 5-10 pounds on your mid-section isn't an issue. But if you're average or bigger, why make yourself look heavier?

When wearing a suit, braces always look more handsome. Sets one apart from men who are wearing a belt or some roughed up piece of leather that they're wearing around their waist! Great point on footwear.

7:09 A good leather jacket should last a lifetime and looks better when it gets a bit worn out. If you wear a brand new jacket every 4 years people will most likely think that you are either buying fast fashion or that you are a criminal.

I love a good worn in leather jacket!

I admire the fast-talking 1940s-50s fair-ground hustler chat that this guy employs to get these moderns up outa their arm-chairs and on to the groove at last!

It was 5 minutes ago that I just learned what a pleat is. I assumed it was the crease down the leg.

I feel like guys who can wear slim fit suits which flatters their shape simply cannot identify with guys who cannot wear slim fit clothing. It actually makes you look worse. Why traditional menswear companies continue to almost exclusively make slim fit clothing is beyond me, especially in the USA.

I’m 32 and so far.. pleats, high waisted pants, and suspenders are main stays in my wardrobe

Most of the time what some associate with old people, will inevitable become chic in a decade or so, and then become associated with young people. Just look at flat caps. 10 years ago people wouldn't have been caught dead wearing them because it was something only old men wore. Now that most of those have passed and because of shows like Peaky Blinders you see them everywhere one 20somethings.

Did he say pleats are hard to find and you’d have to purposely set out to look for them? What style planet is he on. Pleats are in again and they are everywhere

Im surprised the comfort footwear is considered the contentious point. For me, its never stick anything up your nose - not your fingers, tweezers, electric hair cutter, or any other cutlery. Just dont. Stop. The discomfort you experience after cutting the nose hair too deeply will teach you a great lesson. If you cant shave the hairs with a flat razor that stick out, then you probably arent shaving yet. As for footwear - flip-flops, crocks and other stupid shoes are for the beach and nowhere else. Children wear flip-flops, not men. Its like shorts - dress in a manner that if an emergency broke out, you are not going to die because you couldnt run through broken streets, glass, or uneven broken terrain. That is basic self-awareness and what was once fundemental survival instinct. Only a child would dress in shorts during the winter,and they do. For God sakes, what if something you cant think of happens...I shake my head every time I see an adult child in flip-flops.

I am old but I am straight.

I don't care what anyone says, if you 30 and older and you have just one of the following you should be wearing pleated pants unless you are exercising everyday. Multiple keys, a wallet, a phone. I really don't want to see anyone wearing flat front pants and their thighs begging to be rescued with pocket bulges.

Disagree about the worn out clothes. I don't think it makes a person look old. It makes the clothes look old and rundown, but people of all ages can wear worn out clothing. Wearing comfortable shoes. Just going by my experiences over the years and what I have seen, wearing loafers and shoes of that nature is what makes a person look old. It's the same with the sports jacket. I never see a younger person wearing one unless they're going somewhere special. That's an older person item to wear.

What is the problem With Being old ⁉️
