The worst part of getting old is listening to people who says you can't do this or that because you're too old...

I'm now 77 years old and have discovered, the older I get, the less I care what other people think.

I'm 41 and I look 31 because I invest into my image heavily. Clothes are important but your face and body are way more important. Take care of those and your clothes will look better and you'll have more confidence to wear cooler clothes

Wearing jeans and T-shirt at my age means I feel comfortable not to look young

I am 56 and I feel very young. I know I don't look 20 but I feel 20. A good outlook keeps you young. God bless!

1. Don't eat too much. 2. Fast sometimes. 3. Work out. 4. Have a healthy attitude, enjoy life. 5. Challenge yourself sometimes.

At 67 I'm well past being concerned about looking "youthful". I wear Merrill outdoor shoes which go with almost anything, keep my clothing color-combo within reason, grooming standards up, and like most men around my age, I need to exercise more and eat smaller portions. I gave up drinking Scotch on a regular basis and eventually lost 30 pounds. Keep your sweet tooth in check as well. Skip some deserts completely and go easy on your favorites.

I once complained to a sales clerk in a Banana Republic store about being unable to find slacks that fit me. She was very nice, but also very direct in telling me that i needed to shop where they sold "Dad" slacks that would fit my type of body better. Embarrassing, but she was right. At 66 I was in the wrong shop.

I’m 65. Still wear converse all stars and jeans with black leather motorcycle jacket. I still think I’m a member of the Ramones.

I would add that being in shape enables more fashion latitude.

Great video. So many guys don’t consider using a tailor to get the best possible fit. Check your local supermarket notice board or classified adverts for someone working from home. You can make a $80 suit look like a $300 version by spending $20 for adjustments.

I have hit 51 now but very slim and weigh 8 and half stone.I have been guilty of wearing football shirts and distressed jeans in the illusion of thinking i could still pass for twenty something.I have addressed it by giving all that stuff to charity and bought myself some good clothes that are right for my age.Enjoyed your video.

I'm 66 years old and recently retired. Some things I've learned over the years, wear what you like and feel comfortable.

Recently I made some lifestyle changes after realizing I had really let myself go over the last few years. I've also started paying attention to what guys are wearing that I think looks good and makes them look good too. I'm still learning (at fifty, LOL) to figure out the perfect combination of style and comfort, but I agree with everything in this video. I always wore New Balance and Nike athletic shoes, and when I started wearing clothes that fit me better, one of my friends at work took me aside and told me the shoes were too clunky looking and I needed to look into slimmer shoes. I took his advice and quickly learned he was right. And there are so many comfortable but fashionable casual shoes out there. Macy's sells slim dress pants that fit nicely and look nice. And my biggest change was wearing shirts that actually fit me instead of defaulting to overly baggy shirts that made me look 30 pounds bigger. If you're not interested in looking good, why are you watching a video like this in the first place? There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing whatever makes you feel comfortable. Be who you are. But if you do want to look more stylish, I would definitely take this video's advice. Slimmer shoes, pants that aren't too baggy or skin tight (and honestly, I think that rule applies regardless of your age; I've never been attracted to guys who wear spandex or oversized pants), shirts that fit and look good on you without being uncomfortable (that's been more of a learning curve for me, as some of the shirts that look good on me tend to ride too high in the armpits and aren't comfortable). In the end, this video is aimed at guys that want to look fashionable and (yes, I'm going to say it) age-appropriate. That's not a bad thing. Don't knock the video because it wasn't aimed at you. But I will say this as a gay man, and I'm pretty sure most women would agree: I tend to notice men who dress sharp more than men who don't, regardless of what they look like. Clothes really do make the man.

What you say makes sense and it truly works. I have changed my style to more your way of thinking and all my friends noticed. I am 68 and dress now in that smart casual look with the colours that complement each other and it makes me feel more confident when out and about. I am slowly changing my wardrobe but keeping it within the boundaries. Mike

I love this video. I couldn’t agree more that we need to stay true to ourselves, especially that with age we become more aware of who we are and aren’t. The more valuable competent advice on how to bring out what I am and feel good about my own style. Thanks!

My Rule: Be yourself.. Forget 'youthful'..Forget 'old'..FORGET what's in or out...Classic..never goes out of style.. Wear what you like..Dress how you like. I do.

There are some men that are in their 50s and 60s, that look way younger, not because of clothes they wear. But because they took care of themselves, along with some good genes. What you do to your body, when you’re young shows up, real fast. Treat your body. Mind and soul, like a Temple.

He acknowledges that everyone has their own look, but there’s nothing wrong with a man knowing how to look pulled together and confident when he needs to. Knowledge is still power.

The men in the comments who keep saying they don't care are just looking for validation because they gave up. There's a big difference between not caring and giving up.

I don't wear jeans and tee shirts to try to look youthful. I wear them because that's what I've always worn.

Biggest style mistake is not exercising and gaining weight

I find this sad and exhausting. Running through this content is a theme of worshiping youthfulness, deception, and a preoccupation with what other people think of you.

Wear what you feel good in , make apologies to no one. Do we have to look like our parents. I'm 63 and I'm very fond of fashion. Be happy.

Wear what you feel comfortable in. Don’t live your life to conform to society.

I’m not ashamed to admit that I needed this. Thanks man.

Your sense of style is spot on for guys who lean towards looking younger than they are but don’t want to look ridiculous.

You completely justify fashion & clothing...And yes, I'M GLAD THAT YOU ARE HERE👍

Working out and staying in good shape is the best way to dress.

Isn't being older than 40 a licence to have enough self confidence and strength of character to not give a f about what others think

Just found your channel! Being a stylist it is refreshing to see a men’s styling channel after aaallllllllll those women’s! Love your approach and advice! 👍🏻

Great video. I’d love to see more content like this.

I’ve just hit 50, and I’ve never tried to dress like anyone else other than myself. Make sure you like what you wear, it fits well, and if you feel smart and confident, you’ve got it.

I just got back from Milan. Women look to the streets of Paris for fashion...for men it is Milan. He is spot on in the video when he says the fit is everything. Find yourselves a great tailor and treat them well.

Great video! It’s all about clothes that fit properly. That’s more than half the battle. You can always adjust color , fabric, etc but if it doesn’t fit , it doesn’t work.

Let me now explain something I have learned, and heartily embraced in my 48 years. Acting your age is EXTREMELY overrated! I wear clothes that I think looks good and my confidence does the rest. But as you say, style is subjective...... I for one, wouldn't have a brown sofa. You do you! 👌

I don't know how to act my age as I've never been this old before 😂😂

Preach! Be yourselves guys, but have some pride!

I'm a women and I don't understand all those negative comments from men. Why did you subscribe? The guy is always on point! That's how we like our men to look like! By the way his hair cut is fabulous!

I absolutely love your videos. I really enjoy your sense of style ❤️

My only rule: Wear what makes me comfortable and makes me feel good. Who cares what others think. Outside of work of course. To each his/her own.

Agree with everything you stated! I too have seen these very same mistakes made by men trying to still dress as though they are still in their 20’s. Saying that MOST 40+ men have a few pounds that they simply cannot loose no matter how much they exercise (perhaps they work to many hours each day or have to many responsibilities in their free time). I’d like to see more options for these sort of men i.e. those who hold a little extra weight (especially around the mid section). I look forward to seeing your new video on this.

Good advice. No problems with your style...looking great.

All good tips. Im 55 and not willing to be relegated to the yesteryear of clothing.So I have a stylist and a tailor as looking good is important in my career and he keeps me up to date and pushes me to try new things

I’m gonna be 37 next month and my wardrobe has definitely changed these last 2 years. I do believe in wearing whatever you want but at the same time I don’t wanna wear a lot of the same things I wore when I first turned 30. I do a lot of my shopping lately at J.Crew, Banana Republic, and also some Target and Marshall’s. I invest in quality pieces instead of cheaper made things. Which is why I can shop at better places now. I’ll purchase a very nice fitting shirt from one of the places above for 40 bucks instead of buying 5 shirts at Walmart for 40 bucks that don’t fit me very well. Another thing that I’ve picked up is tailoring my own clothes. That’s helped out a lot. Thanks for the video. I’m very happy to say that I don’t do any of hose things in your video. Lol!

You are so right about the fit!! I have seen expensive suits on guys that looked bad on them because the coat sleeves were too long or the coat fit too loose!!! Tailored is in and it don't have to costs a lot!!! Thanks for the great info!

Our personal styles are not close. But I’ve learn to implement the lessons and fundamentals that this channel provides.

I've realized after some time that men (in my opinion) want to look young, but are still feeling old on the inside which in turn their choice of clothing makes them a bit off especially how they carry themselves. If they dont feel it in the inside it's just not going to work. I'm almost 56 and I feel young on the inside. I also have an 8 year old son and a 10 year old daughter. I always had a youthful mentality and my taste in fashion reflects that. I research KZfaq for ideas and information about enhancing myself from within and my style. Thank you for sharing.

I'd say just figure it out for yourself and make your own style. I'm 71 and buy stuff targeted at 18-30 year-olds all the time. I order from China when I don't see what I like/want here in the U.S. My friends who are 10-20 years younger than I compliment on my style all the time and ask where I shop. My friends 20-30 do the same. I stay pretty fit and make sure my clothes are a flattering fit to my body. I stay away from the extreme mega-destroyed or loose/baggy end of style. Really, the most important thing by far is to take care of your body. If you do that, then style comes pretty easy. And if you keep fit, then you will carry yourself with confidence and likely communicate a degree of happiness and openness that can draw people to you. (I'm 5'9", 165lbs. Losing 15 lbs over the past 10 years was a wonderful transformation, and easy - the product of re-joining the cyclist community.)

Hi... I’m Rob, and 56. Your video title caught my eye, and I watched and “liked” it. I just felt that most all the points you made, although good, may be applied to all ages. It’s just that older men should not make the fashion mistakes for which young men are forgiven due to their immaturity.

Great content, man! Your info is straight on!

Very helpful. I appreciate the pictures shown on the screen while explaining what he's trying to say. I subscribed.

I've always walked past the fashion sneaker. I never, ever knew what it was for. Thank you! I'm going to give them a go. And the Taylor idea. Thumbs up!

I'm 53years old and agree whole heartedly with the content. I've been telling my wife this forever but she disagrees I want to be sophisticated but she wants youthful. This is probably the only battle I will ever win, I choose style.

Your video was very helpful and many of the looks you shared of yourself were great. I loved the pink pineapple shirt! As a man of the age of 53 I do think it's fine to wear a loud/busy shirt if paired with a plain sweater/sweater vest and also a graphic t-shirt paired with a blazer, it helps tone things down and makes it more age appropriate. I also agree with you about personal style. I do think older men can wear ripped jeans but it needs to be controlled. I go for only a couple of holes then iron self adhesive canvas patches on the inside so it shows no skin and keeps the holes from growing bigger when laundered.

Great video. Though I’m not yet 40, I’m seeing the need to make some changes. It’s amazing how good you can look when your clothes aren’t a size or two too big like what I’d buy in the late 90’s - mid 00’s.

I'm guilty of the running shoes out in public, but it's only because they're comfortable and it takes pressure off my knees and back.

I'm 55. I don't wear clothes anymore.....at all. Problem solved.

Just began actively listening to your videos. They seem spot on. Thanks (over 60, hoping to feel over 50)

Thanks for the vid... I actually like every one of the outfits that you showed you wearing and got some great ideas from that. Cheers!

He’s a cool guy, like his tips, modest, relaxed and professional...

Amazing how having great hair like this gentlemen’s, automatically makes outfits look better... lol

I love your hair system. It’s so natural! You are really smart. Great to watch.

John I’m 63 and have been following your channel for about a year Getting ready to retire I am definitely going to watch what I wear and have received compliments so guys give it a go -don’t forget you have to wear something so it might as well be a positive response rather than a negative one

This whole thing mainly depends on where you live . In Berlin, Germany for example, men dress youthful and sporty up to their fifties and it is totally ok. Men under 30 are considered as kids ( by men and women ) so the range of well dressed good looking guys on the streets goes from 30 something until 50 something ... If you live in the suburbs or in a provincial town however, you might already be seen as an " older " guy, when you exceed 35. So place is more important than age ...

Want to keep from "looking old"? Proper diet, vigorous exercise, and a good attitude go a long way; a lot more than your choice of attire.

I found your expertise advice and instructions extremely usefull and inspiring. I need more of it. Tnks

Im 6o and have lived in LA, Seattle and now the midwest. He is so spot on. I love younger, hipper styles, but I adjust them to fit my age a bit better. Don't wear all the trends at once!

Just be yourself @ 54 this year, I've long ago stopped worrying about what others think regarding how dress! I wear what I want how I want!!!!!

A mistake I have noticed: Men not caring to understand how personal style can become ones uniform; and different 'uniforms' or outfits, can align the mind towards performing certain tasks or aligning with certain qualities. Example: Dressing up as a form of training behavior; like, chastity or mild-manners -- dressing up or dressing down such that am mindful to monitor my behavior. For example, when I am down emotionally, my style of dress demands that I maintain 'stiffness' and other self-preservative qualities when in public -- in other words I will not /look/ depressed and neither will I be mentally impacted by my unflattering image (ie not caring, sloppy, mismatched etc).

I'd like to see a video putting together a few of these looks and pricing them out for guys who don't want to break the bank.

Starting a video with "what's up..." should definitely go.

I'm 57 this year and it has taken me the last 10 years to find my style and feel confident. When I was younger I use to follow fashion and wear clothes that betrayed my body shape etc ... Now I go for comfort and style. At 57 I wear slim fit or even skinny leg pants... who cares 😊 I stopped wearing jeans when I became 40. I can't stand them now 😬 I love vintage and second hand clothes. I guess I do have an advantage because i have a sewing machine and make my own clothes such as sweat tops from off cuts of jersey then adding vintage fabric. I also customise second hand clothes when I can be bothered. If I'm honest I think we do take fashion to seriously now a days . Fashion should to be fun and not treated as if we are going to war ... Wear what makes u happy is important because u can't wear it when your dead . 🙏

I agree with and do most of the things you said. BUT ... I will continue to wear my looney toon, team canada, and rock and roll hall of fame t-shirts because I believe an older man is still entitled to have some fun with his clothes. And... I myself do not do the untucked look because I think it looks sloppy - regardless of the shirt type.

I just found your website and subscribed - loved it!! I will be a regular viewer; this is just what I needed. I'm not doing too bad, but I do need guidance!!!! Very informative - thanks

Always great content!

I feel you my friend. Lots to learn as we get older, thanks 👍

I totally get this. At 65, I still care about how I look and dress. My cardinal rule is “good shoes” and a “good watch”, and everything else falls into place ( most of the time ). Fitness is essential, and I workout three times a week. Being somewhat fit, well dressed, along with my cardinal rule, I always feel my best out in public, and maximize my self confidence. You are never too old to look your best, and enjoy some fashion upgrades on occasion. Buy quality Vs quantity. Avoid trendy style, but stay stylish, and you will feel, and look your best, even past your prime. Do it for you, your wife, your family.

Thank you for inspiration and useful tips!

Excellent information. I shared it with my husband and other family members.

I'm 63 and I still want to look smart casual when I go out. Really good tips. Good fit for your clothes applies to any age.

Dress with confidence and the world will react accordingly

Winter in Florida & summer in Montana. TWO completely different styles. Boat shorts, T's and sandals to boots, jeans, & hats. A wardrobe of great thought and guidance from motherbear.

I love the fact that this guy struggled in his late 40s and managed to still look like a million dollars, much respect.

Excellent advice. It’s easy for me however. I still dress like I’m in my 20s because when I was in my 20s I dressed like I was in my 40s. Simple classic dress-casual style never changes and is ageless. :)

Good awareness for the men who wish to look stylish. Thank you for the video.

Thank you for this video!

Great video John😊 Thank you!

I am a woman in her 40 and loved your fashion video and advice . It was spot on

Terrific tips! I'm going to start throwing out lots of stuff after watching this video!

Loved your presentation my Brother, I found it entertaining as well as interesting, you're on point, plus, I like the styles you shared, thank you.....

The mature man actually looks younger dressing his age than trying to look younger. Rationale: A guy sharply dressed his age still looks important and relevant, whereas he would just appear to be trying too hard with youthful duds, exposing his age.

WEAR WHAT YOU LIKE AND FEEL COMFORTABLE.

66 and I wear mostly Polo's and dress slacks(Dockers) wear jeans now but rarely, and workout 3-4 times a week. People swear I'm in my 50's-it tkaes work especially during the holidays but I stick with it!!

I’m barely 17 and I’m here planning for the future some of these tips I’m seeing are really good a few of them basic but still very helpful I’ve begun using only solid shirts with no prints I’ve begun going minimal on my shoes but keeping them clean and looking new this Is my first video of yours and I like what you ahve to offer

I've got so many black and navy blue shirts. And they go best with whatever nice shoes or jewelry that you're wearing.

Useful tips. Oh boy I need to get out and shop for new clothes. 👍

All of what you mentioned was on point! I found this by mistake and have subscribed. Thank you!!

Thank you for this great content. Great job. I considered myself a classic style man since my middle 30. Thanks a lot

You are spot on. I fully agree with you and your suggestions
