The Iron Snail is a men’s fashion vlog starring a young man named Michael and featuring a snail no bigger than a quarter. The two are set on taking over the world of fashion by creating a clothing line to end all clothing lines. Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jackets to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered. (written by Taylor, though Michael is sometimes known to talk about himself in the third person… xoxo)

I want the awesome screenprint on mine... why can't you release these things during the summer when I'm bringing home enough to buy 4 jackets a week. I'll have to try extra hard to find work through my union soon.
Babe wake up, Michael uploaded again 😩

I normally watch all my video's at 1.5x speed but I can't do that with your videos bro. You already talk at 1.5x speed, and I love it. These video's you put out are very on point and factual, and a lot of times I really like how you mention brands that have lower prices but the quality is still there. I hope and wish you get more subscribers soon, just so you can keep banging out more great videos. Kudos to you dude, much love from a random guy in the midwest.

Hey Michael, can you make a video about Ginew and their products. It’s a Native American owned company and their American made products look amazing! Thank you!
Really cool to see you falling in love with S.E.H Kelly, been one of my favorites for the better part of a decade now. Everything they make just oozes with quality, and Paul is a delight to work with. I was lucky enough to get a chance to visit their workshop back in 2015 and ahhhhh it's everything you could expect and more.

right off the bat, definitely agree going vintage for the detroit jacket. i was lucky enough to get one for $100 and it looks so much better than the new ones they’re making. and i’ve had my eye on that LC king denim barn coat for soooo long now, what a nice jacket
Your videos provide some new ideas for pieces I might put on my wishlist. Thanks for the unique selection!

Amundsen is by far my favorite brand of all time, i have many sweaters and the heroes anorak that i cant wait to bring on my trip to Antarctica. Cant recommend it enough and it's worth the price almost every time.

KZread recommended this video to me. Ok. I was pleasantly surprised that you recommend L.L.bean baxter state parka 82, which I bought just a week ago. I'm from Russia. I bought a jacket in Russia. Believe me, this is very difficult to do. But it's definitely worth it. It's a really cool jacket. It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who thinks that way.
Hey Michael, you should have a look at the Fracap Magnifico. They're a beautiful Italian made stitchdown monkey boot at a really sensible price. I love mine, they're really comfortable too! 😊

ugh okay fine you convinced me
Here’s a tip from me: McNair Shirts I have the heavyweight Mountain Shirt, and it cost me £375.But it’s warm enough that I don’t need anything warmer during winter (when layering) - and I live in Norway! It’s 100 % amazing wool, built like a tank while still comfortable, and made-to-measure is included in the price. Oh, and everything is made in England! My only complaint is the lack of hand warmer pockets. It’s also available in some varieties, like a medium weight one that’s a bit cheaper.
Snappy and tasteful edit, nice job.
Keep going. The videos are great, it's gonna pay off... I can feel it. I watch your videos and I always take something away with me. Today... I'm looking into LL Bean rollneck sweaters and UES.

I LOVE N&F WITH ALL MY HEART!
There were a lot of Baracuta jackets of different varieties in TK Maxx last year but none of them were in my size which was frustrating. My mother ended up getting one though. Interesting shoe suggestions I really need some stuff like this but it's hard to find near me to try on in person. I've big feet need something minimal. Unfamiliar with some of these American brands. At the moment I like YMC and Anerkjendt for trousers. Carthart and Barbour have very good quality scottish wool jumpers in nice patterns also.

Do you have any flannel shirt recommendations? I'm looking to pick one up for the fall. The Faherty sweater flannel caught my eye but the $178 seems too high for a flannel shirt made from polyester.
How is sizing for you with the knickerbocker x fracap shoes? I also own a pair of Solovair’s so if you tell me both sizes it would be really helpful. Thanks!
Spier And Mackay definitely deserve a nod for their overcoats, they are more prominently known in the formal / smart casual community of menswear for their use of some of the same fabrics / materials as high end bespoke makers and i have never heard anything but positives about their quality for a extremely reasonable price due to the lack of overhead from being a prominently direct to consumer company beyond a single flagship storefront.

+1 Spier and Mackay, I think they recently expanded their coat line and they make just about every style of classic men’s outerwear now from denim jackets to waxed (think belstaff) motorcycle jackets
@knifenutsdave
8 ай бұрын
Spier & Mackay are definitely great for outerwear, everything tends to run a little small but their chore coats are my favorite I have found because they integrated handwarmer pockets behind the lower patch pockets. Their overcoats definitely skew more formal except maybe their balmacaans (they don't make them every year) and some of the peacoats.

Hey Michael you should check out the Italian brand Scarosso Edmund hiking boots. I got the suede boots and oh boi the quality, the feel and even the packaging are so wellllll made. I always hated the Danner even though they are considered as classics but the way they looked on my 160pound and 5 foot 8 frame is awful, way too bulky.
