Buy Two Essentials Men Should Own In Multiples [0:00:00]
So, when I find a deal, gentlemen.
I take full advantage of it.
One, two, three and I've got two other in the next room which I'm adding to my rotation.
Guys, when it comes down to it, I buy two sometimes five items because it saves me time
because it saves me money.
And in today's video, I want to save you a little bit of both by talking about ten items
which you should buy in multiple.
[Music] Item number one on this list, gentlemen, your
workhorse shoes.
These are the shoes you depend on, these are the shoes whenever you need to look great
in that suit whenever you need them to perform, they need to be ready.
So, what you don't want to do is have one pair that you wear all the time.
Why?
Well, particularly for dress shoes or anything has a leather upper, it's going to absorb
the sweat in your feet.
The moisture that comes out it needs time to let that sweat dissipate naturally.
If you force it or you wear a wet upper shoe and it's just got a little bit of moisture
in there, but you don't allow it to get rid of that what's going happen it's going to
prematurely age leather by stretching it in a way that it shouldn't be, it's going to
cause early cracking and it could destroy the entire upper way before its time.
Guys, we haven't even talked about the sole of the shoe, this is something also over time
if you're commuting walking miles on, you're going to start to wear holes.
Now, if you've got a great pair of shoes, let's say they're Goodyear welted that have
a Blake stitch, well, you can get those re – basically sewed.
But, you're still going to be without those shoes for a couple weeks.
If these are your go-to shoes that look great with a suit, then what are you going to actually
wear with that suit when you need it for the presentation?
Guys, make it -- when I say multiples, you don't have to have the exact same shoe, you
can -- and this cap toe right here with a little bit of broguing on it, you can go ahead
and get rid of that go for a plain toe, you could may be go for a dark brown.
What I do like to see you do is stick with a particular brand that way you know the fit
is right or you've at least tried a few brands and you know that these are all going to work
for you.
When it comes down to it, gentlemen, this is part of your uniform,make sure that you've
got a backup.
And, again, it could be something casual you may find that, hey, I just want to have a
few casual shoes.
Maybe you've got a shoe like this in white and it could get stained easily or it takes
time to clean, well, you what you want to have your backup.
Item number two on this list, gentleman, perfectly fitted jeans.
When you find a particular brand a particular style that works for your body type, take
this as a sign and buy multiple pairs.
Why?
You’re going to save a lot of time and a lot of effort because brands a lot of them
they follow these fashion trends and so they changed the cut the models everything they
use to make the fit of the jeans.
They'll change up within five to six years.
So, if you've got particular style and you just have these perfect jeans, it will be
very difficult if not impossible to find them.
I've got a friend he's big into lifting weights and squats, you know what happens?
Basically he's got a big backside he's got thick thighs, he had a particular brand that
it was his go-to and he tore those jeans and all of a sudden he went to go buy them and
they slimmed up and it didn't fit him properly.
He had to go on eBay and actually find the exact model numbers and he was smart, then
he bought like five pairs multiple colors.
Don't be afraid, you don't have to go with all indigo or all dark-colored, you could
have fun you could go with light grays, you could go with a red, you can go with maybe
a variation of a true blue or a black.
Moral of the story, when you find a pair of perfectly fitted jeans, buy at least two.
Now, before we go to the next item that I think you should own multiples of, let me
ask you a quick question.
Should you own multiples when it comes to a watch?
So this one I was a little bit hesitant to put in there until I went to the review section
over at Original Grain.
Check this out guys.
Men just like you are buying multiple watches from Original Grain because they love the
various collections.
Now, Original Grain is the paid sponsor of today's video, but guys I want you to check
out these various collections.
For two years I've had them as a sponsor and you guys are telling me you guys in person
that you love these watches that you love the way that they take wood that they take
metal that they fuse it together.
Look at those collections; the Barrell collection, the Classic collection, the Minimalist collection,
that Brewmaster collection, the Major League Baseball series collection.
You like the look in those watches, gentleman?
Well, click on the link down in the description.
Go over to Original Grain, use that discount code RMRS.
You can use that on one watch, you can use that on multiple watches.
And let me know down the comments what two watches would you love to receive?
Be specific.
Talk about how you would rotate them through your wardrobe, what they would go with.
The more details the better, guys.
If I've got a couple extra watches you know I love sending them your way.
Guys, let's get into the next point.
Item number three extra suit trousers.
Why?
Because extra suit trousers are going to take your suit life and they're going to extend
it.
How does that happen?
Because the first thing that normally gets damaged on a suit is going to be the trousers;
they get ripped, they get torn, they get stained.
Well, if you've got that extra pair of trousers, you are going to be able to default to those
and you're not going to have to worry about all the sudden having an odd jacket, a sports
jacket, a blazer.
Yeah, and that's kind of cool when you can have that, but not at the expense of losing
your suit, so by having those extra trousers you have a little bit more insurance to make
sure that you've got your suit to go back to.
[0:05:14] Item number four, your perfectly fitted and
perfectly white dress shirt.
So, when you want to wear a white dress you want something that's free from stains something
that fits you great something when you put on it looks beautiful it can be dressed up
dressed down.
But what you don't want is when you go to put on that dresser you look at yourself in
the mirror and you realize you've got a stain right here on the collar that you didn't notice,
that you didn't get removed, and now you're about to go to an interview you're about to
give that big presentation and you've got that big stain right here or right here and
it's going to bother you.
Go to your other white dress shirt and they're relatively inexpensive.
You can get them all adjusted to fit you.
You want to look for something maybe in abroad cloth or something in a poplin, but even an
oxford that can be dressed up that can be dressed down is going to be perfect.
Item number five that outerwear piece that gets more compliments than anything in your
wardrobe.
You know what I'm talking about.
That sports jacket that is made from that particular fabric that literally works with
your complexion, with your eye color, and you get compliments all the time.
That trucker jacket that when you put it on you just feel tough you feel great.
It's just the most fun casual look it looks great with almost everything in your wardrobe.
That cashmere sweater that when you slip it on literally the ladies come out of the woodwork
and they just start wanting to touch that sweater and get close to you.
Whatever it may be, gentlemen, make sure that you get duplicates of -- that you've got at
least two of these because you are going to cry you're going to be upset when that game-changing
piece is damaged, is lost, is destroyed.
Item number six a complete grooming set.
And for me, I've got three of these.
Of course, in my bathroom at home which I use pretty much every day I'm going to have
a complete grooming set of everything I need.
But I've got two Dopp kits; one I keep in my truck another one I keep in my gym bag.
The reason I've got these two Dopp kits this one right here is my travel Dopp kit that
I keep in my truck.
So, if I'm going to be flying out to the airport I'm going to be hitting the road for two weeks
if I'm just simply going to be going to the beach with my family, I've got this Dopp kit
that I have access to any time basically I'm away from my house.
In my gym bag, that Dopp kit is going to be almost a replica of this one with a lot of
the same stuff, but that one for when I go to the gym in the morning and I simply want
to be able to freshen up or to be able to look good as I'm coming out of the gym.
But having three complete sets guys makes it really easy because before what I would
find is I would go somewhere and I would forget something.
I’d forget my hairbrush, I’d forget my hair product, I'd forget my toothpaste.
By having three complete sets, I basically have systems so I avoid forgetting.
The next item you want to own multiple of is your favorite fragrance.
We're talking of that fragrance when you wear it you feel like a million bucks.
So, you want to have a bottle for home, you want to have a bottle at work, you want to
maybe have a bottle for your vehicle.
So, you're about to go on a date or it's lunchtime and you realize that, hey, fragrance doesn't
last forever and you want to reapply the fragrance, but how to do this especially when it's expensive?
Your favorite fragrance is maybe a couple hundred dollars per bottle or you know that
to get the best deal, yeah, you could buy that 100 ml, but I don't want to have that
much fragrance because that's like putting all your eggs in one basket and all of a sudden
you know you open it up to light damage.
Guys, learn how to decant.
Basically, you're going to take that 100 ml or 50 ml bottle, you're going to break it
down into smaller bottles and all of a sudden you're going to have travel fragrances.
At the end of the day, guys, what you want is to have your favorite fragrance available
to you whether you're at home, whether you're at work, whether you are traveling, so you
can feel like a million bucks.
Next stop on this list, gentlemen, the white pocket square.
So, the key with the white pocket square is it has to be white.
So you're looking for linen or you're looking for cotton either material is going to be
fine, but you want to have multiple of these because eventually they will stain.
When they stain, hey, you don't have to throw them out, you can actually turn them into
a handkerchief.
But for a pocket square, remember, it has to be solid white no stains.
Next on this list, winter gloves.
When you find a great pair well-fitted winter gloves especially if they're on sale, buy
two sets.
Put one in one jacket, put another set in another jacket.
Eventually, you will lose one of those gloves.
You've got the other pair that you can go and default to, but guess what?
If you lose another glove, you got a 50/50 shot of actually having both the right and
the left.
Now, if you're stuck with two left-handed or two right-handed gloves, I don't know really
what to tell you there.
All right, guys, so finally the number ten item that you should own multiple of is…
what do you think?
Black socks, like gray shorts, polo shirts, I don't know maybe watches.
I want to hear from you guys down in the comments.
I almost went with socks and I thought that one was a little bit too easy.
I do have a lot of pair of black socks.
But, I want to hear from you guys what do you think what should I have put down there
what should be on this list that I missed?
And, guys go check out Original Grain.
I'm going to link to them down in the description.
Use that discount code.
Let me know multiple watches how you would wear them how you would fit them into your
wardrobe.
Good company, I'm proud to have them as a sponsor.
Guys, that's it.
