Real Men Real Style Hello Antonio, great video. When I have my shirts tailored made, my tailor always asks me about the collar, and I never know what to say. The only thing I know is that I don’t like Button Down Button Collar (which seems you love). Greetings from Colombia South America.

[@leosedf]

Great video Antonio, this one you nailed it pretty good i have to say.

[@JohnDoe-wj3lv]

Real Men Real Style I found out I needed my first suit today. Thanks for the video.

This video truly is the Ultimate Guide! I’m buying my first “adult suit” on my own this weekend and this was JUST what I needed. Now I am confident I will walk in/out of that store with a proper suit. Thank you!

[@reneroman5578]

Antonio. I have been following your advise and videos for quite sometime now. I work in a Financial Institution environment where business attire is strongly encouraged. Normally I would wear just dress pants and shirts with a tie. However as of late, I've incorporated blazers, tie bars, pocket squares and watches to my wardrobe and the results have been quite astonishing. I've received so many complements and interest from the opposite sex. The way people approach me has even been noticeable. I even had a young women tell me that i look like someone that has it all figured out and that if i was not married she would make me date her!!! Attitude is everything, I look and feel good and people pick up on that. Thank you for everything you do for this community!!! Keep it up!!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Well done Rene!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Did you have a specific watch style in mind?

[@reneroman5578]

Real Men Real Style Yes, The Kiaros white/silver with the tan croc band is a very clean watch that I have been interested in. The simplistic design of this watch screams luxury. Love it.

[@reneroman5578]

Real Men Real Style Thank You!!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Nice choice. Curious - where are you located? How did you find this channel?

[@exapsy]

Antonio, love your videos! 19 currently, and I really have upgraded my style (and personality) from "Modern Edgy Child" to "I'm mature and I mean business" since I'm a Freelancer programmer. You're really helping! Thanx again. Keep it up!

[@elusana]

Saw this beautiful tuxedo coat at a thrift, had to buy it since it matched my needs for what I want my tux to look like. I mean, come on, I looked like I spent thousands when I only paid 4 bucks lol

[@RealMenRealStyle]

+e usana Awesome deal. Thrift stores are a gold mine.

[@nikosspyris]

Literally bought a tan/cream suit for my highschool graduation some months back. I was the the only one with such a colour and made me stand out, got some compliments, joked about it with me classmates. It just made the day more memorable. While looking back now I think a more neutral colour would have worked better in the long run, that suit served me fantastically for the occassion. So in short, from an 18 year old who literally only has a single suit and is just now trying to move towards a more formal style (might be cause I feel obliged to now that I'm studying law), just get what you want most and you will enjoy wearing it the most.

[@merkury06]

Antonio, you have, yet again, done young men a true service with this video. Some may say it is conservative, but you have given men, especially young men with the ambition to make their way in the world, information that will serve them well. One of your best!

[@poozizzle]

I'm in my 40's and just got my first real suit made to my measurements from Indochino. The only "suit" I have with everything I've always wanted, double vents, working cuff buttons, and I get amazing compliments. Thanks for all the advice! It's helped me dress mite intentionally.

[@Tal-wb9jn]

Appreciate that you need to make a living...but not a great watch...don’t buy it gentleman...Vincero is just not a quality watch for the $...look at Seiko, Oreint Citizen....for Swiss Tissot, Swatch...big fan Sir but that is not a good watch choice...Sorry...

[@michatarnowski580]

Excellent for beginners. There is probably nothing that isn't covered in other videos, but it summarises very well the essential information for those in a hurry. It's a pity that this material isn't appreciated by the viewers - less than 100k views after more than a year. But I hope sooner or later this video becomes a classic.

[@ArafatRahman_MS]

The holy grail of mens fasion for formal look. Truely best video.Covered All. Thanks and keep it up man.

[@vonketelsen2077]

Antonio, thank you for your wonderful videos! I'm 59, and work at a local radio station, covering ag news. I've always worn at least a shirt & tie at work, even though others I work with don't. When I cover events, I wear a suit & tie, or at least a blazer with a tie. Again, thank you for sharing!

[@GuillermoVCervera]

This is probably your most comprehensive video ever. It has the most important details of every aspect of a formal dressing. Definitely something to favorite and keep handy for future reference. Thank you, Antonio!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

+Guillermo Cervera Indeed. Thanks for watching.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Guillermo - Did you have a specific watch in mind?

[@banjopiggottwright1802]

I recently commissioned my first ever Bespoke Tailored Suit and I couldn't be more excited. This video was one of the first videos I watched from this channel and I just want to say thank you for all that you do for suit loving gentlemen wordwide.

[@imranhisham908]

This guy knows it inside out. Very informative!

[@jefferyyelton9590]

today is my 52nd birthday and I'm going to buy my first suit for my sons upcoming, low key, wedding. After a lifetime in the military where the closest I had to a suit was my "Class A's", I really appreciated the information!

[@jpjp9111]

First, I love how you went over everything piece by piece. It's very helpful. Following is both my question and a watch pairing with my 1st suit to be. 1) Something I'd like to know is what knots to wear and WHEN to wear each. I've read your article for "4 tie knots every man must know" and saw your new bow tie video. I understand that the collar and proportions may play a part of the knot choice. I understand that bow ties are formal and the full Windsor portrays power such as CEO or a president. What about the other important knots? 2) The following is regarding my first suit I want to purchase and the watch I like. I'm just starting out in my style journey and so I would really like to purchase the navy blue jacket with traditional collar and slacks as my first. I like it better than the dark gray. Only two buttons up front is perfect. The white button up shirt with a deep dark red silk tie would be bold yet attractive. These would go very nicely with my brand new dark brown Chelsea boots that I just bought. I love those so much. Accessorizing with the Vincero watches, the Chrono S matte black and The Bellwether matte black would both look nice. Both are very attractive and compliment this first outfit well. Choosing just one to wear, I really like the Chrono S the best. I actually like both but it just seems to have a sight edge in my preference.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

I go into more detail here: www.realmenrealstyle.com/search-results/?q=tie%20knots

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Which of the two watch styles is your favorite?

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Curious - where are you from? How did you find this channel?

[@jpjp9111]

Real Men Real Style Hi Antonio, I apologize for the late response. To answer your questions, I currently live in Seattle, Washington. I've been following your channel for a few months now. I honestly don't remember where exactly I found your channel although it's during my efforts to reinvent myself after a recent tragedy. I'm learning alot from you and the books I'm reading thus I'm determined to be successful. Regarding your previous question, the Chrono S Matte Black is my favorite of the two time pieces.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Congratulations Jp Jp! Winner :) Kindly send your contact details here: www.realmenrealstyle.com/contact/ (Don't forget to include your KZbin name)

[@shabgoid]

This video helped me so much! I'm about to buy my first suit. This guy doing the video is a real winner!

[@amitkumartiwari9905]

I follow some rules of this topic and feel like a BOSS 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@gisellepokorny4097]

These videos should be shown in high school. Fathers and sons should watch these videos together. Looking classy and elegant *aides* you in any endeavor. Thank you for this relevant content.

[@lucakiebel]

So, I recently bought one of Vincero's watches as a Christmas present for myself. It took them 3 weeks to deliver it to me in Germany (with FedEx Premium shipping). On their customs declaration they wrote, that the watch had only cost $60, instead of $160... Now this would've been easily taken care of, if the support was a little more responsive, in the end it felt like I had to teach them how international shipping works. I have it now, it's an awesome watch and definitely worth it's price tag, but not really worth the headache...

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Luca - Thanks for the heads up. I understand your frustration - will forward this to the Vincero team.

[@nazrael8826]

Just a bit of advice, for that price you could actually get a mechanical timepiece from a reputable watchmaker such as Seiko or Orient. If you prefer a quartz watch, get a Citizen or Timex as the quality control of fashion watches such as Vincero is very poor. Just speaking from experience here.

[@giorgiogrimaldi8541]

Thank you Antonio. I enjoyed your video. Your smart use of visuals, great pacing, voice clarity, and mastery of your subject makes this an exceptional presentation!

[@eoinmaclean6478]

Content like this should be taught in every high school in the country! Semper Fi

[@bendtherules0]

Loved the olive green suit with blue shirt you are wearing. The fabric pattern is so elegant.

[@michaelvitale4029]

I was hoping you would get to comments on pricing. Obviously, pricing is relative and subjective, but I'd be interested in your opinion. What's the difference between a $500 suit and a $1500 suit ? Are famous designers always the way to go ? Are any of the menswear chains such as Mens Wearhouse worth buying from ?

[@baze3SC]

Fabric quality, full canvas vs half canvas, surgeon's cuffs, stuff like that. Though honestly, for $1500 I'd just buy an airline ticket to Thailand. Not only you can spend a nice holiday there but they can make you a very decent bespoke suit for $400-ish. It might sound like a joke but I'm serious, it's a much better use of your money.

[@earthling_parth]

Wow, the most coherent and quality video I've seen on suits, especially for beginners like me, young men who are new to formal clothing like me. Thank you Antonio.

[@afti03]

i learned in 2 days here, more than i ever knew about wearing suits and boots and matching colours. thanks man

[@onuroender]

Hi Antonio, first of all you give the best styling tips and I really like your videos and articles. i am a 22 years old student from Germany. The black watch is my favourite. For my sister's wedding this summer, I am going to buy a navy suit. I am thinking about a three piece suite, because of the location. It's going to be in Turkey and I want to take of my jacket but still look better then others (this part depends on price). A white shirt with a solid dark colored tie should be the best. Black shoes, black socks and a white pocket square and it is on point. The watch would round off the hole outfit. Greetings from Germany 🙂

[@mcndev21]

Great great video! Wish I had this when I was thinking about my first suit in my 20s. Even so the details in this video can still apply those of us later in life. Thank you!

[@Masa6x]

The black face, silver case chrono watch would be perfect for my use in school where we wear business casual as well as when I go out or in job interviews. I'm quite young compared to most viewers and it would be my first quality watch.

[@damanjitsingh1445]

Love the way you described it

[@kinggeek5637]

Hello Antonio, I believe I owe you a thank you! after a couple years following your advice I finally saved up for my dream suit! ( navy checked double breasted ) from tailor store and I have never been happier so thank you for taking the time and effort to create these videos!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Great to hear that. I like that you really invested in buying a nice suit.

[@kinggeek5637]

Thanks I decided to get more of a statement suit as it is more my style and I already managed to get a £299 navy suit for £160 in a clearance sale so I have a basic suit if needed

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Super! Did you have a specific watch style in mind?

[@Sauravmatic]

Vincero watches? What’s next on your recommendation? Sketchers dress shoes?

[@dg4961]

Great video and very informative. "Purple, The Color of Kings" I agree. 16:56 was my favorite part!

[@shahnawazsalim3]

amazing guide for rookies who are thinking of buying suit... well done on the video👍

[@joking69s]

I really appreciate that you explained everything I’d need to know about suits 😊

[@hamzaazhar8673]

This is not a video. This is a well made documentary on men suiting and its damn good.

[@nicholasbecker644]

Very very informative me and my stepdad are heading out next Saturday to get my first proper suit, thank you for the info.

[@andikasagala819]

ok, you have a good marketing skill. i tried so hard not to skip the ads, although i'm in a bad time.

[@noneofyourbusiness910]

Would it be possible to do a video on leather jacket tailoring and talk about what can and cannot be adjusted on a leather jacket and how much each adjustment costs roughly?

[@RealMenRealStyle]

+Zachary Wheeler Good idea! Thanks Zachary

[@jameslyddall]

Real Men Real Style Im going to ping you a message whats your thoughts on tench coats? really love the old school trench coats from the 90s. Watching the x files and loving the black and grey trench coats the agents throughout the earlier series.

[@spankerton]

Excellent vid Antonio! Your content is always a pleasure to watch. Suitsupply seriously needs to start giving some love back. I only started buying stuff from them because your content gave me the knowledge to be confident in dressing a notch above. You and the Gentleman's Gazette are killing it as far as I'm concerned!

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Appreciate the support Randy :) Have a great 2018!

[@russellbogrett605]

I almost never wear a suit but i needed one and im on a tight budget. I bought a Alan Duplet suit on line for $39. Gave them my measurements, got a suit and had it tailored. Looks great, feels comfortable to wear.

[@rodog247]

I love floral suits, I have dozens of solids, but I love the floral!! Whats your take on floral suits? Like-if so why? Dislike-if so why? Thanks

[@thadlabrie9627]

Very comprehensive and cohesive guide. My one critique, I would have liked more detail on pocket square folding.

[@techiprobin133]

This is the best detail vedio I've found on KZbin on suits....and for that you earn one new subscriber 👍

[@erikwhitney7403]

@RMRS. Thank you for your service. Now for my question. I would like to see a video on what to purchase first or at same time. Dress shoes, suits, shirts, ties, belts. Example I buy dress shoes at a shoe store then go to a clothing store for a suit(s) to match with and hem properly? Should suit coats and sport jackets/blazers be bought first or dress shirts. Is there an order to what you buy first? Thanks.

[@zekewang869]

Super informative! This video deserves way more views.

[@abdulnasirbushra6049]

Yo Im only 14 but you guys are so amazing I really like suits they make me confident so thank you for this!

[@revmatch4052]

Getting my first suit today ❤️ So excited. Thinking to go with charcoal grey

[@dynathrive1307]

This guy killed it. So informative wow

[@OverlandTT]

Regarding watches, I just wear my Omega 300M with everything. Had it on daily for 13 years but it feels right.

[@jit-art4299]

Best video for buying first suit. No doubt.

[@austinperez4313]

I just bought my first suit earlier before I watched this video and I think I nailed almost every instruction here. I buy Cobalt Blue suit, is it right for a first suit?

[@davedavy5406]

This is a great video thanks! The time has come for me to buy my first suit and I was feeling a little lost in the jungle with what to do...feeling a lot more confident now!

[@Mohammad-zm8ff]

Really informative and right to the point 🤝

[@Hanney2010]

awesome! I love this video so much! I am going to buy my first suit for my academic conference next month. Thanks a million!

[@ForesakenRage]

I immediately fell in love with the matte black Bellwether. I bought it with the discount code before the video even ended

[@Lucky_Dandy]

Awesome, every single episode is so helpful, hope you keep enjoying doing them.

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Thank you!

[@ajitshukla6706]

Hi Antonio, how many pair of suits one should have if one is in a business profile? Also how many times can you wear a pair before dry cleaning it? Thanks

[@ajitshukla6706]

A trouser press? Not an iron right? Have to check whether I'll get it in India or else will have to import. By the way the ox blood shoes is not there on Ace Marks where can I get that?

[@alexchalatsis9616]

Very helpful video Antonio

[@hernanperez912]

Very useful. Thanks Antonio 👍

[@LKPnet]

Not many talk about the height of the button and. Another important factor is the point where the legs of the trousers come together on the inside. I found that most jackets do not come below this point as it looks weird when you close the jacket.

[@yaniel7873]

I would like to were suites on my dale básico in the future, this helped me a lot

[@JustinFournier]

I think you should add in a new category into your website/videos. Technology. It's 2017 and cellphones/wearable tech are increasing in function and of course style. Technology presents another detail in style that would widely be missed. There is a subtle message that would be conveyed to how a man presents himself if he's pulling out an android or apple, Flip phone or smartphone, Or even a Fitbit or fossil Q. Do you have any plans of adding on tech as a style point in fashion?

[@RealMenRealStyle]

I'll keep that in mind - thanks for the suggestion Justin.

[@lolly4961]

Go to techgents and suggest that :)

[@JustinFournier]

Learning social skills and technology fashion are two vastly different things. Everyone carries technology with them every day. Because a cellphone exists in your pocket doesn't automatically cause your ability to communicate deteriorate, if it does, a persons social skills weren't developed to begin with. Lets put it this way. You have the communication skills, you have the suit, you have the tie bar/cologne/cuff links, you even tied your shoes right. The girl is about to give you her phone number. And... you pull out your Coolpad defiant burner phone. Ew. The perception is like picking up your date in a 96 honda accord. They'll think your parents still pay for most of your bills. If fashion is about communication without speaking, then the technology you carry is and always will be part of that non-verbal communication. The future is today and we wont be going back to the 90's anytime soon.

[@luisbarragan6527]

Hey Antonio thanks alot I really appreciate it!

[@bhmch39]

Used this channel to prep for an interview. Spoiler alert: I was awarded the new position as Relationship Manager and complimented on my suit. Always a good sign when a market leader asks ' Where do you get your suits cut?" Thank you

[@messenger3478]

Thank you for these tips. Would like more info on were to start when you have no need to be really formal. I really like Victorian, Edwardian, and Early Modern styles myself. So figured I'd start there.

[@mikelituris]

man, I can't thank you enough, this helped alot

[@horseman1463]

This was one of your best videos you nailed it

[@robbprsns]

The black/ silver Chrono S would go really well with the charcoal suit I'd wear to really any events that I'm wearing that suit, or when I perform with my school band in our all black band uniform. Because of how few men wear watches, I think a beautiful watch like the Chrono S would really set me apart from other applicants when I go for my interview for the Canadian Forces in a few weeks. And informative as always with the content

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Robert - Good choice!

Pleasantly detailed. As far as watches I like the navy blue band Vincero.

[@adventuresofneric2624]

You probably covered it a 100 videos ago but would like to see more about Fabric...not just color and pattern but what types for what purpose. Wool vs Cotten blend vs silk vs cashmere blends

[@RealMenRealStyle]

Noted!

[@RickyTickyTV]

Thanks for the great channel! I like how you keep it standard. Many channels incorporate their style and confuse that with the standard. I am not sure if people understand that but there is a standard and I like how you tell us that standard and let us decide how to incorporate our personality (if it fits the occasion). Anyway, thanks.

[@michelpohl1019]

thank you very much. It's the best video of you which I've been watching so far. It is very interesting that you discuss not only suits as an individual piece but how to match it with other garments to some extent as well

What color is good for funerals? I'm going for black. Is that a good choice?

I need your advice. I literally wear suits 7 days a week. With my traveling for business, I am in front of customers 5 of those 7 days. I typically carry with me 3 to 4 different suits every week and rotate from a total of 6 to 7 suits. I typically purchase suits off the rack which, even with me rotating them, dont last a year. What brands do you recommend if I turn my purchasing a higher quality suit , shirt and tie? Thanks in advance for your advice.
