Clothing with Attitude [0:00:00]
Gentlemen, there are particular clothing pieces with a lot of attitude.
And in today’s video, I’m going to talk about those particular items the message,
the attitude, the signal they send, and why you should bring them into your wardrobe.
[Music] Number one on my list, the power suit.
This is a dark-colored suit with a light-colored shirt preferably in white with a red necktie.
This outfit right here, it signals power, strength, confidence.
You will come off as the authority.
That’s the attitude it’s setting.
And, guys, this has been proven.
And there’s a couple of things here.
Dark-colored.
I’m talking navy, I’m talking charcoal gray, maybe a medium gray, but once you get
in the light gray once you get in the light blue or you go with other variations other
colors, it doesn’t have the same effect.
We’re going for the power suit here.
Next up, let’s talk about the shirt.
What we’re going for is contrast, so the white shirt this is the classic symbol of
the white-collared man.
The white-collared man, he doesn’t get his hands dirty.
He’s in a position of power, he’s telling other people what to do.
Now, let’s talk about the neckties.
So, neckties in general are great when you’re giving your presentation because they point
to the face to keep people looking at what you want them to be looking at.
But, let’s talk about the color red.
So, there’s a classic study of a man reading a report and one of the parts of the study
he’s wearing a red sweater and the other one a different color and they tested it with
a wide range of colors.
But, what they found is the red sweater the red color is what actually got people to believe
more of the report.
It was – that was the only thing that changed in the study.
So, the color red, again, you wear this, you’re going to come off as more persuasive and more
confident.
Next up, let’s talk jewelry and that’s all about status, it’s all about what you’ve
accomplished and who you are.
So, one of my favorite movies The Edge.
Anthony Hopkins comes back from being in the wilderness, he had a fight off and he killed
this grizzly bear.
And what is he wearing when he gets off the helicopter?
He’s wearing that grizzly bear’s claw right there as a necklace.
We wear jewelry all the time to show status.
A wedding ring.
I was married in Ukrainian Orthodox Church, so I wear it right here on the right hand.
And if you’re maybe an engineer, you know there’s rings that you can wear for that
up in Canada.
Watches oftentimes they symbolize what we’ve accomplished, we keep them.
Basically, when we wear these we showed the world who we are.
Now, gentlemen, the watch I’m wearing today is made by Vincero.
They’re the paid sponsor of today’s video and for over two years, I’ve been talking
about this company.
These are watch lovers who came together and said, you know what?
We can make a better watch.
We can make one that’s going to look great.
It’s going to get you compliments and is going to be at an affordable price.
I’m linking to them down in the description with the best discount code you’re going
to find out there, guys.
But, go check them out.
Look at the Chrono Collection.
This has to be one of my favorite collections.
Just look at these watches, incredibly beautiful.
Look at all the different dials, look at the complications, look at the ability to actually
get the interchangeable straps, so you can go with a wide variety of different straps
there.
Now, next to the Chrono Collection, I also absolutely love the Bellwether Collection.
I just love the way that it’s lined up just the overall design of it how the dates down
there at the bottom, how you got the complications on both sides right there on the dial.
It’s just a great-looking watch.
And I could tell you I’ve got their full metal one right here in silver and I could
tell you it’s just a great watch.
They’ve also got their Automatic Collection.
So, if you want an automatic watch, they’ve got you covered there as well.
Go check out their Marble Collection.
Good-looking watches right there.
If you want something simpler more like a minimalist watch with no complications, guys,
go check out their Kairos Collection.
I’ve got this watch right here, I absolutely love it.
Check out the mesh strap that they’ve got there.
And, again, all of these straps are interchangeable, so if you want a leather if you want something
that’s metal, you can interchange all of the straps.

I’m linking to Vincero down in the description of this video with the best discount code
you’re going to find out there.
Use it or lose it, guys.
Great company, I’m proud to support them.
Next up, we’ve got sunglasses and it’s all about mystery because when you can’t
see somebody’s eyes, you’re wondering, well, who is that person?
They say eyes are the mirror to the soul.
Well, you can’t see into this guy’s soul, you’re trying to figure out, okay, who is
this person, what’s going on here?
That mystery has a sense of sometimes coolness, but oftentimes it’s just like, ah, who is
that person?
I want to get to know them better.
So, you got a little bit of Hollywood that plays into this as well.
Someone like Casey Neistat or Jack Nicholson or Tom Cruise in Risky Business.
If you’re wearing sunglasses like this, you are not hiding, you are out there especially
if you’re wearing them indoors or you’re wearing them in a crowd of people that are
wearing maybe Aviators or other styles which really aren’t is attention grabbing.
Next up, we’ve got boots.
And the attitude here, a working man of means.
Let me explain.
So, let’s go back and look at the history.
So, boots actually were first worn by knights.
Why?
They needed something that would fit on their feet that would keep them in the saddle, that’s
why on boots you actually got a heel to keep you right in the saddle.
Officers in the military that are riding horses and boots were still one of the most expensive
items that they would own because of the amount of leather, just the cost of goods that would
go into something like this.
So, it was seen as something that was only for the rich, boots in general.
Now, boots have now made their way into the working class, but they still are quality
made.
[0:05:09] So now, let me show examples of what I’m
talking about.
So this boot right here, definitely comes from a working class kind of background, but
it’s a dressier boot.
You could wear this with jeans, but it’s still a very casual boot with a working man
heritage.
Next up, we’ve got the chelsea boot.
The Beatles wore boots like these.
And this one right here, it’s dressed up, but it’s still ready to party.
Next up, we’ve got the chukka.
This comes from the British desert boot that’s commissioned by officers actually in the field.
They wanted something that gave them a little bit more ankle support.
So, it’s a very casual boot, but still has a military heritage.
Next up, we’ve got the leather jacket and the attitude here, rebel.
Marlon Brando, James Dean, Poe Dameron.
Yes, in that Star Wars movie, look at me pass that leather jacket onto Finn.
Finn became a rebel.
Guys, leather jackets have that symbol of rebellion and it’s something that, you know,
this one right here, classic motor jacket.
I zip it up, it’s for motorcycles kind of being out on your own.
Now, interestingly enough they did some research on what does leather like symbolize to people
and when a lot of people touched it especially women, they would say it’s very masculine,
a very strong fabric.
Now, the key with a leather jacket is a great fit.
To get a great fit, buy it with a great fit.
This isn’t something that’s easy to adjust.
You have to take it to a specialty leather worker and even then there’s only so much
they can do based off of the proportions and where everything is placed, so I would advice
try on a jacket, but unless you really, really love it, do not buy it.
But, if you really love it even if it’s not on sale, it’s oftentimes worth saving
for and buying even at full price.
Next up, we’ve got the simple white t-shirt.
The attitude here, casual, laid back.
I’m like, ah, nothing’s going to bother me.
I am relax in here.
Now, you could dress it up, you could throw a sports jacket on it.
Perhaps, but still it’s always going to be something that is never going to be at
the level of something with a collar.
But, hey, if it’s your event your company, you just want to throw in a jacket maybe for
a meeting, you can go ahead and do that especially if you’re a Silicon CEO.
Now, a leather jacket I think would look great with something like this, but remember when
you’re looking at good t-shirts, you want to make sure it fits you, it works for your
body type because it’s not going to work for all body types.
But, I would say that in general look at the neck, is it, okay, with the crew neck, it
should be a nice fit here, it should be elastic, it should stretch right back.
Maybe look for a V-neck, that’s actually going to build up the chest.
Look at how it fits you here in the arms.
You don’t want it way too loose, otherwise it’s just going to look baggy and wrong
and make sure it’s not going down so low that it looks like a dress.
[Bleeping sound] All right.
Did I blow up your screen with the attitude?
Guys, be very careful when you put the combination together, people are just going to be blown
away.
Now, seriously have fun with this, find what works for you.
Maybe leather jackets just aren’t going to be your thing.
Maybe the white shirt, nah, it’s not going to fit your body type.
Whatever it may be, guys, actually have fun with this, but realize that clothing does
send the message.
One of the items I didn’t talk about, cashmere sweaters.
The message the attitude being sent there is come touch me.
Yes, if you want to attract – let’s say you’re out on a date, you actually have
never actually held hands, touch, or kiss this woman, perhaps wear a cashmere sweater
if the weather, you know, it’s cool enough that you can do this.
But, she’s going to want to touch the sweater.
As soon as she touches it, you’ve broken down a barrier, you’re going to feel much
closer and that’s key.
So, understand that clothing sends messages, it’s something that you can control and
use to your advantage.
[Bleeping sound] All right, gentlemen.
Now, it’s your turn.
I want to hear from you down in the comments.
What do you think of this video?
Agree?
Disagree?
What would you have added to this video to make it better?
And if you like this, if you found it useful, please pass it to a man that can use this
information.
Here at Real Men Real Style, it’s all about you using style to control the message.
That’s what this video was about and it’s not about you going around and buying a leather
jacket or wearing sunglasses, but you understand every time you put the stuff on, you do send
the message.
So, make sure you control it.
And, guys, if you’re looking for a watch, go check out Vincero.
I’m linking to them down in the description with the best discount code you’re going
to find out there.
That’s it, guys.
Take care.
I will see you in the next video.
All right.
So, between all of these between my jewelry, my boots, the sunglasses, the shirt, the jacket,
can you feel that power?
Oh, yeah, going right through the internet.
Do you feel that?
Be careful, I don’t want to blow up your computer or your phone whatever you’re watching
this on.
Be careful.
Feel that power?
Yeah, that’s all attitude.
