So this first style mistake isn't so much a fashion mistake as it is
a trend. That blows my mind. Why would any guy decide to do this? In fact,
this fashion trend has upset so many people that they have passed laws against it.
Seriously, towns in the state of Georgia, Louisiana,
Missouri have all passed regulations that if you partake in this fashion trend,
you could be arrested. But the real crackdown high schools, hundreds of high schools across
the United States have banned this. Look, even former president Barack
Obama commented by saying, come on, some people may not want to see your underwear.
I'm one of them. In case you haven't guessed yet, the fashion trend I'm talking about is
sagging. Now, personally, I try not to judge people based off of how they dress.
Being in the fashion industry, I know oftentimes that can be a false indicator. Doing the
research on sagging, I can only come up with two reasons why anybody would actually do this. One,
they're impressionable and young, and it's just a fashion trend in their local group.
The second, which I think is a bit of a stretch, is every time a man dons sagging jeans,
he's thinking, you know what? F you to the man, f you to society. I'm going to do what
I want. I'm going to wear these jeans in a way that makes it uncomfortable.
I mean, seriously, look at Travis Scott here. This cannot be comfortable. If
there was a fire at his concert, how is the guy getting get out of there quick.
He's going to be just trying to evacuate with those little steps.
This is dangerous. Now, first up, let me be clear.
If you make one of these mistakes, I'm not saying you're a loser,
that's a pretty harsh word. And to me, it describes a state of mind that sometimes
we find ourselves in, me included. That being said, the world is not always kind
and people do take shortcuts and make decisions based off of how you dress.
So my goal is to inspire you to dress in a way that this biased world sees you in the
best light. So as a confident man trying to make it in this world, you can make
any of these mistakes. But understand, the world may judge you in a negative light.
Now, because I'm looking out for you gents, this next one, I'm going to be straight up.
You want to avoid this brand. And I know there's a lot of you guys out there.
You're 34. You've had those jeans for ten years. They just make your ass shine.
But Mike, it's time to retire that affliction denim. Now,
there was a golden moment from 2007 to 2009 when the angel wings, the swords, the roses,
the skulls, the skeletons and the crosses was fashionable. But that time has passed.
Who knows? The brand may reinvent itself, but, yeah, we're all staring at the rhinestones
on your backside and it's not looking as good as it did when you were 21. I mean,
I'm not personally staring at your ass, but somebody is because it glitters. And I get it.
You want to be brand loyal. Not a bad thing, except when the brand
doesn't evolve and you do. You've changed your style, your preferences, your body.
Find something that works for you. Now, this next mistake isn't specific to clothing as it
is to the way that you wear it. So if you're constantly fidgeting with your clothing,
if you're pulling up your pants a dozen times a day,
if you're having to retuck in your shirt again and again guys, you've got fit issues.
You're wearing the wrong type of clothing. You need to make a permanent adjustment. I highly
recommend you look at getting a belt that keeps your trousers where they need to be.
If you've got a bit of a waistline,
you're a little bit heavier. Look at suspenders. They will transform your life.
Seriously, I know you suspend. Your guys are
out there. Let us hear from me down in the comments how you love them.
Another tool that's life changing shirt stays. These connect the bottom of your
shirt with the top of your socks, and they keep your shirt tucked in all day. Seriously.
I learned about these in the Marines. They were one of the secrets to why we look so good in our
dress uniforms. Seriously, I remember this pull up contest we had when we were in our Charlie's.
Guys were jumping up, they're knocking out 20 pullups, jumping back down. All of a sudden,
hey, everything went back to looking great. They are amazing.
The shirt stays. Now, the psychology behind this one,
the impression that you are making on other people when you're constantly fidgeting and
adjusting, is that you have low confidence. Gents, that's not where you want to be.
And speaking of low confidence, let's talk about how this affects you in the bedroom. Did
you know that 50% of men have symptoms that get in the way of having great sex? Gents,
if that's you, Roman is here to help. Now, Gents Roman is the sponsor of today's video,

Co RMRS save 20% on your first order, so make sure to use it again. Judge that's
ro co RMRS. Now, this next one is just a straight up public service message,
and that is to stop wearing square towed shoes.
Guys, the devil first crafted these shoes about 150 years ago, and men have been falling down into
the abyss ever since. Now, I get it. A lot of you guys are saying, hey, they're comfortable.
They've got a wide toe box. A lot of brands actually do if you look around,
and they've got much better looking shoes. Hey, these are the dress shoes that I've had forever.
Well, look to upgrade because you bought those cheap shoes. And guys,
the vast majority of square toed shoes out there are inexpensively
made. They're just simply using yes, glued together, sold with the upper no.
You want to look for a goodyear welt. And here's a quick graphic
that shows you how a goodyear welt is constructed. It's sewed together.
This basically can be resold. It's a sign of quality. Another type of shoe construction
you're going to see out there, especially in dress shoes, is going to be a Blake stitch.
This can give a little bit more of a streamlined basically a really nice dress shoe silhouette. In
any case, know the enemy and then upgrade your footwear to something. Yeah, that looks good.
Next up, let's talk about those light brown socks. Yes, wearing with sandals is bad, but
that's not what I'm focused on here. I'm focused on the fact that these socks used to be white.
Gentlemen, you're not fooling anybody when you wear socks like that. It is a
clear indicator that you don't know how to do laundry. Now, guys, this is relatively simple.
Break the whites, your light colors into one pile, your darks into another. Anything that's
in between, well, give it a separate pile as well. Now, sticking with those whites,
let's go ahead and wash them with detergents that are made specifically for whites.
Maybe throw a little bit of bleach in there. Now, your washing machine should
tell you how much to add, but I would say less is better. So maybe start off with half a cup.
After that, maybe add a full cup. Again, I'm assuming a full washing load here. Point
being is you want to be able to get those whites white, and this applies to your white T shirts.
This applies to your dress shirts that are white. You want to keep
these things looking good, and once they start to stain, go yellow. Yeah,
it's probably about time to get rid of don't think that yeah, no one's going to notice.
Now, gents, if you're enjoying today's video, do me a favor. Smash the like button,
because hopefully people that are making these mistakes will find this video. When you interact,
you let the YouTube gods know that, hey, we need to share this video.
It needs to get out. Now, they say a picture says a thousand words. This picture just says one.
No, no, and no. When it comes to mesh shirts, guys, okay? If you're going to be in a parade,
if you're a fashion model, if you don't give a flying fiddlers, f,
yeah, you could wear it. But for the rest of us, please do not wear this.
It just never looks good. Now, Gents, for over a decade,
I've been saying that fit is king. And guess what? It holds true,
because this suit right here, yeah, the guy spent a couple thousand bucks on it.
But guess what? It looks bad. Gents, the reality is you can spend as much money
as you want on clothing, but if it doesn't fit your body, if it doesn't complement your build,
it's not going to look good on you. And the vast majority of men buy suits.
They buy clothing that is way too large. A lot of people are saying,
well, that's in style right now. That's the new fashion, right.
Going with loose clothing, there's a difference between something that's slightly loose and then
overly baggy. Baggy is not going to make the clothing more comfortable. In fact,
you will actually have less freedom of movement.
And really, it just never looks good. It's not a timeless look. Instead,
find clothing that accentuates your build.
Yes, you are built like a square. You're built like a circle. You are skinny.
You got to run around and shower to get wet. Whatever type of build you've got,
find clothing that's going to suit that build. Now, talking about fit,
let's talk specifically about the fit of your pants.
Let's look down where they yes,
right here at the shoes. This is called the break. And if you're wearing dress pants,
they should not let you out of the store unless they adjust and they hem the trousers.
Now, I'm going to recommend for most people, just going with a half break,
but if you're a really tall big guy, then go for a full break. If you are a bit on the shorter side,
maybe go for a no break type of look. Point being is you want to control this.
You don't want a puddle of fabric bunching up around your footwear. And by the way,
this does apply to jeans. In general, though, I would say that you can have a little bit more
fabric down there at the bottom because of the closeness of the fit, especially on the legs.
But if you're going to go for a boot cut, guys, make sure, again,
the length is right. Otherwise, with that wide cut at the bottom,
over time they're going to start to fray. They're going to fall apart.
You're going to be stepping on the back of them. Yeah,
that look is never good. Now, this next one, I know is going to seem so tiny,
but let me explain and then that is don't button the bottom button on a suit.
Now, really quick, here's a quick graphic that explains how to button your suit when
you stand up. If it's a one button, if it is a two button, or if it's a three button,
the vast majority of jackets out there are going to be a two button blazer, sports jacket,
suit. In that case, when you stand, you button the top button, the bottom button.
You never button when you are seated, go ahead and you can unbutton the jacket. And with a
three button jacket, you got a few options. You can actually choose to button that top button.
The middle one is the one that you want to keep buttoned whenever you're standing. And when you're
seeing it similar to the two button jacket, you're just going to go ahead and make sure
that that top and middle button are unbuttoned. The bottom button, again, is never buttoned.
Now, you may be asking, why do we stick with a rule that was styled after some fat dead
king that, yeah, just couldn't even fit into a suit to begin with? Because most suits now
are designed with the idea that that bottom button is going to be unbuttoned. So the way they drape,
the way that they hang, the way that they fit on the body, it throws it off. Basically,
where that button should be buttoned is going to be the center point of basically it slims
up that silhouette and allows it to go a little bit, flare out a little bit at the waist area.
Unfortunately, though, if you button that bottom button,
you have actually changed the shape of the silhouette. You're bringing that
focal point a little bit lower and it can throw off the whole look. All of a sudden,
your leg line doesn't look as long and it's not as elegant of an overall bill.
In addition, it can be really uncomfortable because it's going to be tighter than it
should be. Now this next one I know a lot of you guys are going to disagree with,
and that is to wear an Ostentatious T shirt. I'm talking about something that's either vulgar,
something that's trying to elicit an emotional response from others.
I know here in the United States when it comes to politics,
a lot of people love to wear their politics either on a shirt or on a hat. They love
to scream. They want to invite, let's just say, an interesting conversation.
I don't know, agree, disagree? Let me know in the comments below. Now,
I'm all about freedom of speech, democracy, and freedom. But that goes both ways.
And you're at that restaurant, at the mercy of the waiter and
whatever they're doing to the food behind the scenes. Guys, come on,
let's think through this. My approach with this is a little bit more subtle.
Yes, I dress well, I want a positive opinion, but I don't want people to be able to guess
basically who I'm voting for, what are my beliefs? Because I want to make sure
that I'm on their side. Especially when they've got a position of power in this one instance of
our interaction. So what video to watch next? How about style Mistakes that make you look old? Yeah.
Guys, you don't want to be making these. They're
going to make they're going to aid you before your time. Seriously.
