I realize it's kind of randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to watch new movies online?

[@sterlingkevin7446]

@Franklin Shiloh Lately I have been using Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)

[@wesnall6796]

Antonio, I’ve been a viewer for quite a while now. This was one of the most informative videos I’ve seen. Thank you.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Glad you liked it!

[@munem939]

My recommendation for all of these is to get them when they're on sale and ditch brand/shop loyalty (as long as the quality is as good elsewhere). It drastically reduces the cost, allowing for more clothes in your budget

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Good example!

[@swegboii6447]

Wow really helpful. I never thought about coming up with a specific budget wardrobe plan like these.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Great to hear this! I think it's a must to plan out and have a specific budget when you're building a wardrobe.

[@MrDanielWP]

A few pieces of advice to the budget conscious shopper: 1. Haggar synthetic fabrics will last forever and they don't fade in color or get fuzzy. They are perfect for casual dress are also very nicely priced. Polos, button-ups, dress pants, casual pants, etc. 2. Indochino is a great choice for suits, blazers, and formal dress shirts. (Being made to measure saves you to the cost and weird fit issues that come with tailoring a pre-made suit.) 3. Get Allen Edmonds for your primary dress shoe/s, if you can afford it. You can spend more and you can spend less, but you won't get better shoes for less. You can also get matching belts from them. 4. Anson Belt and Buckle or Kore Essentials belts are fantastic. (You can use either, but some of us will know which one we really need from one visit to their respective sites.) 5. Gold Toe is a good standard for men's socks. Their casual socks last longer and perform better than Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, etc. Their dress socks are high quality and have a good variety of colors. 6. Clark's shoes doesn't know an Oxford from a Derby, but their shoes are comfortable and can generally be had for around $50. They aren't up to par for formal attire, but they are great for a casual outfit. 7. Most of these brands have regular sales, which will drastically effect the price. Wait for a major holiday or get on their mailing list for special offers. 8. Remember that you can wear virtually ANY color shirt with black or gray trousers. If you start with black leathers, waiting to expand to brown and burgundy later, it will be easy to color match and wear different polos/button-ups with black or gray pants. Avoiding having to buy multiple leathers up front will save a substancial amount of money, initially. All in all, if you are wearing an Indochino suit, Indochino dress shirt, Gold Toe dress socks, Anson dress belt, and Allen Edmonds shoes, you're doing well for Business formal attire with that oufit. Approximate Cost: $800. If you are wearing Haggar Cool 18 Pro pants, Hagger polo, Gold Toe socks, Anson Belt, and Clark's Loafers, you'll be just fine for Business Casual attire. Approximate Cost: $150.

This video is what I consider ESSENTIAL for beginners

[@isaakhyde8327]

Wow, this is some crazy amounts of detail! There's really no space for any uncertainty at all. And I like how you put all the budgets in one video.

[@Thomist_Priest]

Lots of work on your part. Thanks, Antonio! It shows you really care about real men.

[@gid-and-friends]

Never fail with these great videos packed with information. Only started following your channel about a month ago and already threw out half my stuff that’s old, don’t fit, don’t match etc etc. Gradually getting my entire wardrobe worked out!

[@jobro524]

Great video loved how you break everything down. And loved the price points on all the items

[@knight0924]

This is a really cool video. Personally, I feel that it is easier to spot a pair of cheap shoes over a cheap suit.. I would spend more on my shoes!

[@MrTrincent]

Phenomenal! My original comment suggested making one of these for several budgets (i.e. $750, $1,000, $2,500, $5,000, etc.). Then, I noticed you included a luxury budget. Great video!

[@alialsaady2132]

I love your videos, every word that comes out of your mouth is valuable. Keep up the good work!

I wouldnt say shirts are superimportant but it is convinient to have them MTO for a little extra in the right model and better fabric. This are the ones that last

[@jaysterling26]

Watches : apart from Seiko , Orient, Casio, Citizen, look at microbrands with the movements NH 35 , or a Miyota. No need to spend more than US$ 300.Research on KZbin. For a more expensive watch,but less outlay, search for one used but sold by a reputable dealer.

[@AlexanderDiviFilius]

Microbrands offer some amazing deals. You can usually expect more solid construction from them than with a Seiko too.

[@PetroniusProwler]

Casio is perfect, amazing brand for an amazing price

[@BlueJayWaters]

Great timing for this. I'm moving down to New Mexico with nothing but my wife and what I can fit in our Ford Fiesta. I have to virtually restart my whole wardrobe for $1000

[@brucewayne7989]

[@spectre5x5]

Great video! Buy suits off season... sales usually around July. COVID-19 may have thrown all of this off this year.

[@jameshodgkinson4290]

Antonio, I am thinking about getting a fitness tracker which trackers would you recommend?

[@devshukla1122]

Great sir Love from India🙏👍

[@ValkyrieMagnus]

I usually save up my money and wait until the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and the half yearly sale. I can get good suits for 50% off and good savings in dress pants dress shoes, shirts, ties, pocket squares, I check in with the sales people on what’s coming in so they can set stuff aside for me so I don’t have to rush in on sale day.

[@connorism69]

I've seen in your videos that you consider Oxford shoes to be the most formal, while double-monks are semi-formal. You also noted that patent leather should be reserved for black-tie events (so it's for very formal shoes)... I was wondering then the formality of patent leather monk strap shoes. I saw a few pairs of them on sale and was wondering what you make of their formality and versatility. On a budget, monk-straps seem a good way to go.

[@mayhemboutdatlife4607]

Lol I just realised this entire time I was not subscribed. I've watched so many vids and been consistent for like 2 years LOL

[@ehtishamsaqib6717]

Pls make more of these types of videos

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Absolutely!

[@Manuel421]

I asked on another channel and will probably ask a couple more but what is your take on Polyester are you not a fan of it either? I ask because I have a dark pair of modern khakis that are 87 Cotton and 13 Polyester not sure if I should give them away as they do fit rather well and are tailored just worried about the material having some Poly since I know it's not always a popular choice. Anyway truly love the content as always!

[@detdigitalaklassrummet4109]

Hey Antonio! Great video! I have followed your channel for years and i have learned so much! But i am at a crossroad when it comes at my wardorbe. I work as a teacher so i want to dress appropriatly but a lot of the times, my work demands of me to be outside in the nature and play games With the kids and i feel that one outfit dont serve all of my needs for the entire day. What should i do?

[@alvinsanchez967]

Take a look at Duluth Trading Company the non-grunt wear that a plant middle management or engineer at a job site might wear. The chinos, khaki pants, button-down shirts, presentation jacket, gentleman's casual jacket, wool cardigans, etc. I have three different wardrobes based on Duluth. First my workwear for my night job and when I'm doing chores around the house. Next, my rugged casual when I'm out on the trails or just want to be dressed that way. Last my smart casual that has freedom of movement and but is rugged enough I could do yard work in but I don't. Along the lines of the smart casual should be able to handle whatever working with the little tikes throw at you. Read the descriptions very carefully and notice what fit you are looking at. Their fits are a step larger than others and check to see if they have a store near you.

[@mojolotz]

Great video. Really enjoyed it. Small detail: going into fractions on those percentage breakdowns seems tmi. Not like you are working with precise prices there anyway.

[@Indykitty1]

Price per use. Saving for a better quality item that last longer decreases the cost per use and thinking for the long term can give better value.

[@fififinance7469]

Money saving should be approached as an optimisation strategy and work on the three biggest categories housing, food and travel. Does your home need to be as big as it is.😎

[@robertportersc]

Once you have found a good taylor start checking Good Will. Easily pick up a $600.00 suit for $20 and have it altered.

[@jayhightower5186]

TIL that I'm in the "mid-range", with some luxury items. I don't wear a watch (it's a long story) so I save money there. I'm cheap, er frugal, so I plan out my dress clothing purchases in detail, plus I buy on sale when I can (which requires financial flexibility). I also buy stuff from Ebay or at yard sales / estate sales or thrift stores and I've gotten Brooks Brothers or Polo casual shirts for $1 (some 'new with tags'). I like to boast of how cheap I can be - in person I'll talk about the $1 scores, but won't mention the $135 Sunspel polo that I'm wearing... I also look at the lifecycle of my clothing - I buy all-natural fabrics and when clothes start wearing out, I'll use them for mowing the yard or working on cars. Instead of throwing clothes away when they're worn out, I cut them up and compost them.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Wow - you compost them!

[@user-ri2ld9fo2i]

[@PetroniusProwler]

Suits and jeans are things im never gonna wear just because of the crazy prices and because im hardcore working out getting bigger stronger while staying lean and that would mean a new suit and jeans every 4 months...

[@ViniciuxMariano]

[@ilbsli]

On what planet a casual shirt is a $150? 😅

[@ehtishamsaqib6717]

Can you look in to getting suits made in pakistan there way cheaper and better quality but I can’t find a good tailair

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Where do you usually buy your suit? What about shopping online?

[@ehtishamsaqib6717]

Pakistan Islamabad there cheaper way cheaper and better looking then in jcpenny or Macy’s sometimes I get the matarial from different places in pakistan

[@ehtishamsaqib6717]

Also they give you better service and tailor in house mention this

[@muzammil150]

Ehtisham Saqib have you thought about custom suits. Majority of the fabric or ready made suits are shipped from Pakistan.

[@ehtishamsaqib6717]

M Shehzada that’s what I am talking about

[@johnnycolino8482]

IMHO, Doc Martin shoes and boots make a great statement, are well constructed (provided you have access to the "Made in England" variety), and mine last about 15 years each. FWIW, I have two unused pairs left and I'm over 50 years old, so I'm done buying casual shoes. :-)

[@billysinge8977]

Personally I think they’re too much associated with the English Punk and Hipster scene, which just isn’t my style. I’m happy you’ve found a good use for them though, and I’ve heard the overall quality is good!

[@gregshanor669]

I don't see any men's cologne s in this budget for a men's wardrobe. That help make men look good in this video. How much of this ( men's cologne s ) should U add into Ur budgets to be more well rounded ?

[@PatGigtainment]

I would say don't ever buy any type of footwear that retail under 100 except maybe slippers or sandals

[@singingcowboy674]

Don't forget better CONSTRUCTION in a 1500

[@InFaMoUsGeMiNi]

I love the idea but the approach could be revised. I can get 8 pairs of Levi jeans for $40 each. You don’t need to blow so much dough on dress shoes. Etc

If we have a larger budget why not buy more than one suit? I mean here in India we can get quality pieces for less price, so in $750 we can get a LOT so why not invest in say more suits or more shirts or maybe shoes

[@watchingbrain]

I am a very lazy person. How about some companies in those price ranges? It is always great to talk about dress shoes in the 100-150 $ range or suits for that matter... make it simple for me: name the companies. Imagine me telling you about a microwave for around 100 $ with a couple of features and then telling you: i will not tell you which one you should get but they are out there! Try a thrift shop! ;) When it comes to watches there seems to be - magically - more information? Funny, eh. Imho: this video is imho just too...generic? Btw. i do not care at all for the % in the summaries. Adds no value for me.
