'AM I A CHAP?' - VIEWERS STYLE ASSESSMENTS - VOLUME 1

[@JK-bg3qq]

This channel deserves more recognition and attention tbh Keep up the good work Ash

[@connorjarvis1031]

Thank you for my assessment Ash, I really appreciate it. I will take your comments on board and get to the tailors.

[@stereomike75]

Thought that tie looked familiar!

[@eddielopez3702]

Greetings Ash. Thanks for the advice and compliments as I continue my sartorial journey. I loved your margarita story 😂. Keep up the good work! A special thumbs up 👍 to all of the Chaps who submitted their pics.

[@stereomike75]

mate you have got it nailed down, the first impression is awesome.

[@jimmydigital]

I don't agree on brogue shoes, I think the shoes you have work great. the ONLY thing I agree with Ash is that as a general rule, if you wear a patterned shirt, you don't need a tie and if you wear a tie, wear a plain shirt. In this outfit, the best way to enhance it would really be to lose the tie. you have all the other great accessories, the belt, the watch, the handkerchief.

[@paulietv2162]

Eddie, the only thing I would add is that it looks like you either have your top shirt button undone or your tie is not fully tightened.

[@johnfaram4684]

over the last 4 months you have helped me enormously with your advice,and i am62 years old !!

[@3wheelmannc860]

Wardrobe selection #2 is spot on imo. I am a big fan of earth tones and that tweed rocks.

[@Sshooter444]

Wow you nailed all the things I spotted. The 3rd chap I knew something was slightly off but couldn't figure it out until you mentioned the tie/shirt issue...spot on!

[@wescobts]

Great comments, thx Ash

[@skylongskylong1982]

Am I a chap, reminds me of The Chaps Magazine article page. They send me advertising of their new magazine, but I cannot decide if it’s for me, as some of the articles seem to be a bite off the wall. I get the feeling they are still trying to find their fan base, and so are experimenting with ideas.

[@jonathansavage8221]

I really enjoyed this new feature in your channel Ash. I learnt a lot from your feedback. I'm not brave enough to send a photo in myself but hats off to those that did. You gave some very positive and informative analysis to each of their looks. They are definitely chaps!

[@nigelmcmorris9096]

Great new subject/theme, Ash. Agree with virtually all of your points. Big thank you to the three chaps who put themselves out there.

[@guitarplayer5611]

Excellent advice!

[@alejandrocaballero7197]

Great new addition to the channel Ash, I’m looking forward to seeing more episodes like this and submitting my own pictures for review. Hope everyone is in good health and has an excellent day! 🤙

[@ronaldpoppe3774]

Great video Ash. Found myself trying to critique before you to see if we agreed. Did mostly but did learn a few things. Now I see what you are looking for I will send you a pic. Cheers Ron

[@haourss]

Excellent!

[@markwalsh6714]

Hi Ash really interesting video Thankyou.

[@AnalogandBible]

Excellent video, Ash! Looking forward to more of these videos.

[@gottfriedosterbach3907]

For Mr. New Balance I might also consider a few more options for footwear as dress boots might not be to preference. I would consider maybe single monks or a great casual option is a pair of chukkas.

[@gottfriedosterbach3907]

The Navy navy navy guy needs a higher rise and the belt should not be visible under the waistcoat.

[@gottfriedosterbach3907]

Forgive my enthusiasm if I have overstepped, but I got caught up in the sartorial analysis.

[@joelantler6660]

I second the chukka boots!

[@thirtysixtothirtynine9657]

great format. Love the way you help enhance brave subjects, all the while maintaining positivity

[@Agerskiold]

I really enjoyed this episode Ash. A good way to ‘discuss’ style. I hope that we will see them occasional in the future 🙏🏻

[@TheChapsGuide]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@viclucyzia]

You don't lose time to help us all. Thank you sir.

[@presumablysteve]

Great feature, both informative and entertaining. A nice change of pace from general Chap advice to individually tailored Chap assessment and suggestions. This is great content.

[@bigbadbith8422]

Great! Really enjoyable. Hats off to the three brave lads who volunteered for the first critique. And my compliments on the sky blue paint job on your table, and advanced joinery skills on the laptop stand, Ash. ;)

[@vincentmartin5046]

Wow that was quick.

[@matthewg8240]

Absolutely sound advice, the Gentleman look great but as you say, with some impartial advice could really make their look pop. Plus, I absolutely doff my hat to your victims, sorry, contributors for their steadfast chapness in volunteering in the first place. Bravo!

[@TheBritishDapper]

I enjoyed the video Ash and look forward to the next one🙂

[@smokeandoak]

Appreciate the video. Good honest feedback.

[@flasherol3764]

Nice video and good advice to other chaps.

[@Fush1234]

Nice intro tie color. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@TheChapsGuide]

For you Bob

[@b-dogswings8019]

Nice to see the different styles.

[@krunoslavkovacec1842]

I think the ladt guy (in the blue suit) overdid it with the patterened shirt and a necktie. Other than that, goood outfits.

[@alexanderdylanthomas1891]

Chaps all! Great looks and great advice to elevate them to the next level. Love this new series, keep it up Ash!

[@clivemcquire7686]

Great video Ash, look forward to the next edition 👍🏻

[@meyeviewphotography]

Enjoyed the video. I may send some pics once i feel courageous enough. I am, however, mystified as to why someone would wear $1000 shoes with department store trousers!

[@aWatchmakers]

Perhaps a hipster? (Just joking). If it a day-to-day wear, I could understand as trousers are not that important (in my opinion) while expensive shoes are usually very comfortable and a boost in confidence.

[@connorjarvis1031]

Hi Brian, simply the nature of my work. My trousers unfortunately see dusty dirty environments.

[@meyeviewphotography]

@@connorjarvis1031 I wasn't trying to be disrespectful I just found it strange. Hope you weren't offended?

[@connorjarvis1031]

@@meyeviewphotography no not at all

[@edwardbirdsall6580]

I have noticed suits with the chest pocket on the wearers right side. Mine are all on my left side. I am fine with were you elect to place your chest pocket however I am curious if you know why the variation? Thank you for your time. I enjoy your channel.

[@davedove67]

I have to agree on the first one. The footwear needs to be upgraded. A good pair of boots would really work for the outfit. If one didn't want boots, even a dark pair of sneakers would be better. Second one needs tailoring and a bit of color, agreed. Third one, the trousers need hemmed a bit shorter. I do agree about the shirt and tie. There is something about the pocket square that needs to be different, maybe a different pattern or color. He does look sharp though.

[@philipjeeves7448]

On Eddie's picture, is it possible that the photo is the wrong way round? As the pocket square is on the wrong side.

[@TheChapsGuide]

Possibly, I reviewed the images as sent. Well spotted.

[@malcolmspillett8172]

Bit of a random question regarding shoe care. The horse hair brushes I use for my black and brown shoes are inherited form my father - who was a Royal Marine - and are 10 years older than me, and I'm 71. My question is, should I continue to use these, or should I invest in modern horse hair brushes?

[@TheChapsGuide]

I would say that it is a matter of functionality. If the brushes are in good order and deliver the goods (a good shine) I would say they are fine to use. The only issue may be that the adhesive used to secure the tufts of hair that make up the brush may have deteriorated with time and may fail. But until that happens, I would say that continuing to use that brush is a great way of honouring your father's wise purchase. Modern brushes are most likely of lower quality, so use them daily and enjoy the experience sir.

[@derekstalker1567]

Eddie is the only one who matches the moniker of a chap . the only thing Iwould changeisby sporting brouges and a trilby or fedora

[@eddielopez3702]

Thanks Derek! 🙏

[@mescnick]

My outfits usually start with a good dress shoe then work pants dickies or chinos or jeans and then a dress shirt and a hat

[@LeScandal]

Shouldn’t a chap unbutton his blazer just before sitting down? I’m not sure myself, but that’s what I’ve been told.

[@drnickyp]

I was always taught by my sartorial betters to never, repeat NEVER wear brown shoes with a blue suit!

[@leonardgoffe7159]

All those flies.

[@djrudog1158]

I do enjoy the videos even though I dress a bit like a slob...

[@djrudog1158]

I am totally a slob and do not feel comfortable dressed up.. I feel uncomfortable....what small things could I do to better my appearance....,👍

[@hemigod2]

He’s being too nice to these three blokes and I get that but rules are rules and the last one Eddie broke a cardinal one that I just cannot let pass. Eddie ditch the belt dude. In fact as a punishment , burn all your belts and never wear one again even when not in a suit . Pants falling down ? Find another option.

[@maninthestreet01]

Thou shalt not wear pantaloons de Nimes
