Real Men Real Style what about situations like marriage, family gathering, reception etc ? A black suit or a navy blue or a midnight blue. Which one you say If I have to buy only one suit ?

[@benebeer]

Real Men Real Style running out of material?

[@anatolchao8318]

Antonio, I have been a Subscriber for the past few years, I love your content. Unfortunately I have to disagree with the fact that midnight blue or black suits work for black and white tie. Black tie means a black or midnight blue suit with satin lapels. And white tie means tails.

[@1491Alan]

Real Men Real Style Hi Antonio, what should you suggest for my sisters wedding on in September? I'm 26 bald man. I'm from Ireland also so weather is unpredictable. Love your channel. Keep up the great work.

Hi Alan! What's the dress code for the wedding?

[@joebuerger1489]

I own 14 suits (used to be a consultant). My favorite, by far, is black pinstripe suit by Brooks Brothers. With a solid color tie, it doesn't look 'Black' or 'White' Tie event.

[@rohanpan]

Navy blue and charcoal grey are my choices

[@broman2084]

if you have 2 options of suits 100% agree with you

[@krollic]

I have a selection of navy and grey to charcoal suits but my favourite one is my dark blue suit. It's somewhere between blue and navy and is a little bit more modern but I think it looks really sharp. It's also very versatile and might be the perfect colour for a blazer imo so I can wear it with non-matching slacks/chinos/jeans etc

[@chinmaykhatkul184]

Navy blue is always great. Midnight looks like a uniform. True blue really captures the 👀. Uhh love all😂

[@pinkymixology4965]

This series is great. It helped me realize that things I like on other people don't necessarily look the best on me. It's something I would definitely not buy anything new without checking out first. Even the watch video from before. In this video I would have liked to see a comparison between these colors with and without pinstripes, but I am sure there a whole separate one for that. I am glad you mentioned overseas environments as well. When I was working in Tokyo it was very different. Thanks and keep it up.

[@georgesalgado8783]

Navy blue will pretty much do it for me when it comes to suits.

[@xjimmy225x]

I've always said your first suit should be a navy suit, most universal. Your second suit, and your least worn suit, should be black. Saved just for formal occasions and funerals. From there you can add a grey or a seasonal suit but I would recommend considering a tux, depending on your job of course

[@justStardust940]

why is navy blue more versatile than midnight blue?

[@xjimmy225x]

@@justStardust940nothing wrong with midnight blue but you'll have more selection diversity with navy. Black, dark brown, cognac and light brown shoes/belt all go with navy. You'd be limited to black with midnight, maybe a dark brown

[@gabbbbbz]

But isn't Black more versatile, giving you an option to play around with shirts and ties of almost all combinations

[@badgasaurus4211]

@@gabbbbbz No, if anything black is more restrictive. Brown shoes with black doesn't work. Blue shirts with black don't work. Plus, wearing black screams funeral or the most formal of scenarios excluding the specific dress codes like the semi-formal black tie and formal white tie. Navy is far more versatile. Weddings, interviews, business meetings, graduations etc. You aren't wearing a black suit to a wedding or graduation.

[@leosigman7239]

Thank you. Very informative. The benefits of Navy over Charcoal for older men is particularly useful for me (The Old Gray Man).

[@TheArtofWill082]

Great article Antonio. One thing I'd like to point out for black suits is I'd recommend either peak (for short to average height people) or shawl lapels (for above average to tall people) as opposed to notch lapels. I've always felt like notch lapels are geared for business or casual style wear.

Hi Antonio, really nice video as usual. I have started to like a beige wool/linen type of suit for the warmer summer months for a more relaxed but still classy looks. Otherwise, for a man like me in my late 20's, navy blue and medium gray is the way to go.

[@adriancartagena5034]

[@primusbaby3592]

Real Men Real Style that you waited till the end for the commercial.

[@claycasassa4757]

I absolutely agree about black. If I had it to do all over again, my first suit would have been navy, but, my charcoal from Combatant Gentleman works just fine. If I do get around to buying a navy, I'm aiming for an Indochino.

[@shuvondaclark6321]

Another great and informative video I personally have dark navy charcoal gray and black all of these fit my lifestyle because they work with my skin tone and what I planned to do careerwise and also when I have a formal but I am still constantly adding more foundational colors whenever I get the chance

[@tjblackmore7863]

I just bought my first two suits. Custom made here in thailand before I head back to Vegas for a business event. I'm a big guy and not used to dressing sharp. I usually sweat a lot and just wear what's comfortable. I decided to go with a dark blue suit (not navy) and a light grey. Since it's sweltering 3 months out of the year and hot for 6-7, I think I'll get more mileage out of these colors. I also went with an aqua blue linen blazer. When I saw the jacket for the first time tonight, the color is so much LOUDER than I expected from the swatch. I hope I'm able to pull it off. It just goes to show that when having custom clothing made, it always comes out looking a bit different than you picture in your head. The blue suit is perfect. The linen blazer is a bit too light and bright. I hope the light gray comes out looking good.

[@crayolahalls]

[@ryancascardo66]

Great video, very informative. My only suggestion would be that you should consider doing a video about brown suits as well. I own two - one that’s almost black and one that is on the lighter side. I’ve worn both to interviews with good results.

[@fskdfjls]

Been looking for a video like this. Thank you!!

[@sebaez_]

I own two suits: a black one and a light gray one, both from Zara. I use both quite regularly, and I never get tired of them. Don't forget you can play around your suits and use them separately. Example: brown brogues + navy slacks + light gray "sports jacket" (the suit jacket). Or... black dress shoes + gray suit pants + black suit jacket. The other items (tie, PS, shirt, and others) will easily give richness to your outfit if you choose the right colors.

Emotions colors, textures, modern meanings, seasons and how best to play assets to optimize desired effect has always been a pursuit for me.

Antonio - I like the double button barrel cuff shirt. I use these shirt types as my signature piece / uniform. Besides “casual Friday’s” I always wear a double button barrel shirt with my charcoal, navy, true blue and light blue suits.

[@NickTheGREEK1216]

Another great video my man. I learn something new every time. 👍🏻🇱🇷

[@JustBCWi]

My approach has been to have multiple navy suits with rotation...different liner / accent button color coordinated with the tie. No other suit color. When I started, I used charcoal, but gravitated to navy because everyone around me was wearing charcoal. When I was in law school, all the young (I was in my 30s, they were out of college) bought black suits for daily office wear as law clerks. One bought a black zoot suit with white chalk lines. They wouldn't listen to experience. They looked silly.

[@ConnerTheEsquire]

For me I feel medium to light grey suits are more casual, worn to take a stroll on the grass or a relaxed meeting with friends. I suppose Bond in Goldfinger is a good example.

[@LydellAaron]

I really like the light grey tie, light blue shirt with black suit in the thumbnail. *Suit combo on the right.*

[@felipeluismartins9487]

Great video! I've decided tô buy the light Blue and gray.

[@ivanwong1304]

Agree! Navy & mid gray > charcoal for day to day, light grey & true blue only for summer, black for black tie, skip light blue which is too showey.

[@raphi7279]

I got a Black suit, a Navy Blue suit, a kind of Darker light Blue, like your Shirt, only a Little Bit more Blue. Also got a Blue, grey crossed suit and a Black and White crossed suit. All of Them are able to Look casual, as well as formal, it depents on The Event and The Shirt youre going to combine with it.

[@ralphmarkasher]

Antonio, Great video as usual. I have a Tux that I got for formal wear after I got out of the Army. I also bought a black pinstripe and navy pinstripe along with a charcoal gray suit I had owned before retiring. But what I have a lot of are 7 sports coats an blazers that I mix and match with dress slacks. When I was working in DC wearing a coat and tie was mandatory but now that I'm working for the Navy in Monterey wear everyone wears jeans and gym shoes, I have given up the tie but not the rest.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

You can wear the sports coat with denim and khaki.

Hey Antonio, great topic, great video, great timing. I actually thought about this yesterday.

One Navy because of its timelessness and versatility and the other grey. However I’m contemplating on which grey should I go? Charcoal, medium or light? (I’m an Architect and not a business man so I work in a more creative industry.) Please give me an advise on which grey should I pick! Thank you!

[@richielopez529]

thanks for the video Antonio. To get started i think for my wardrobe ill use black over midnight for formal, charcoal and navy for business and a baby blue for the informal leisure time. However what do you think of Khaki or a Brown suit i would love to get your insights on this. I have brown skin and think these 2 would go great with me but would you consider them to be formal, business, or informal. I dont think interchangeablility would be great for the brown maybe ok-good for the khaki. Thanks again
