He’s like a cartoon character, never changes his outfit

Being an employee who's required to wear a uniform myself, I can agree that it takes the stress away from people to decide everyday what to wear. If you decide to wear a same dress everyday, your colleagues start judging and wondering why you never change. With the concept of uniforms, that's never a problem.

I'd wear the same outfit everyday too if I could get away with it.

I believe it's because of his minimalism. It's a lifestyle where people own stuff that meant a lot of value in their heart and because of minimalism, it helps someone focus more on the important things in life.

As an IT intern at a company, I wore the same 2 outfits every week as it is all I could afford at that time. I got teased. Just shows it doesn't matter what you do, it's who you are that matters most to people. This is why I work with computers and not people.

I never knew that New Balance shoes were part of the attire.

Steve is stated as saying he wore the same thing every day because he didn’t wanna waste time thinking about what to wear every day. He claimed it was wasted energy to do this and that it could’ve been used in other ways in his life. So he chose the outfit that you see right now.

he doesn't wanted to waste his life choosing trending clothes, he made his own trend and go on with it 👍🤗💯

In 100 years Jobs Clothes is more expensive than Bitcoin today.

I'm wearing the same outfit everyday too, but I haven't been famous yet...

I’m sure it all came down to comfort. Everyone likes wearing the clothes that feel the most comfortable.

**Gucci has left the chat**

Gucci, Prada, lv, Zara, Hermès have left the chat. Walmart has entered the chat.

When you're that rich, you don't have to dress to impress anyone.

saves time and money ;)

Steve Jobs didn't predict the future, he shaped it.

The most recognisable things of steve jobs: 1. This outfit 2. This man's greatest ideas and innovations!

OMG, you’re killing me with that photo.😂🤣

I’ve heard that Albert Einstein had a closet full of the same outfits. The reason being that he didn’t need to expend any unnecessary thought on what to wear.

2:10 Honestly, this kinda looks like a strait jacket.

It’s iconography.. he turned seemingly mundane articles of clothing into an iconic vestige and silhouette of his persona that will endure the ages.

I've been doing this myself for about one year or so now, with an outfit I came up with myself. It has definitely been a game changer.

Timeless look, can’t lie 🤷‍♂️ he found his style and stuck with it, simple as that

Steve Jobs clothes would be considered a collectors items these days

I worked at an Apple store in the early 2000's. We were given black turtle shirts with the Apple logo in the left sleeve, to wear as the uniform for our store. We were asked to sign an agreement that we were not to wear the shirts outside our working hours. I still have the shirt and wear it on occasion.

He doesn't be a sheep following the crowd; he creates his own uniform and inspires other people to do so.

One of my friends who is a huge Steve Jobs fan, after his death in 2011 she wore his outfit for literally two months straight because she was so devastated and depressed at the time. She’s an English teacher and the funny part is A lot of her students actually followed her. Obviously every day it was right in my mind where I don’t think about it, he was truly the greatest Genius of our time.

it is a character of consistency and loyalty and simplicity if you wear the same outfit for years like this. A small thing reflects a big world.

Love your content!!

I love these videos. Their always so well thought out. Congrats on growing your channel!

3:26 pure gold xD

When you support someone from start and then you see him on this stage. Really feeling proud of you bro ❤❤❤

Keep it simple and consistent. Stay Disciplined. Repeat and rinse.

I’m loving these BTS videos with Steve Jobs or Tim Cook. Keep them coming!

Issey miyaki has changed the japan culture of outfit in the 80s

Greg, if there’s one thing I admired about Jobs was his simplistic attitude to life. I like that at my employer even management wears the same uniforms as the regular workers. It helps with team cohesion. (: Good video as always sir.

Einstein did the same thing to stop having to waste time trying to figure out what to wear. Also, one can say of the Japanese, they are a "lock step" country. Mind you, I can see the advantage of having employees wearing a standard outfit at work. It cuts down on having to choose what to wear, it does build a team mentality (if done right) and depending upon the work, the employee does not have to buy work clothes.

Was nice to refresh the memory, I read all of this back in 2012 in his biography by Walter Isaacson. Great Vid.

Awesome video (I'm at 2:19)... such deep insight on such an important, human topic. I'm now Subscribed (w/Bell) :D

Hey nice video man

I did the same thing about 10 years ago at my workplace. I took a page from charlie brown and homer simpson. I settled on khakis a polo shirt (black/blue) and chuck taylors for the summer time and black jeans and a gray sweater and chukka boots in the winter time. I even took a poll around the office when I decided to go this route to see if people approved and to vote on the outfits. I don't think they expected me to last 10 years with the same outfit but I showed them.

4:35 An ill fitting turtleneck for $495! You could buy an entire suit for that price!

Issey Miyake- My Favourite Perfume! This (regards to Steve Jobs Shirt) was a revelation I didn't know about but a great one at that! Thanks for letting us know about this fact ❤️👍

Issey !! So cool that issey and Steve were friends. RIP STEVE JOBS ❤️🕊🕊

I admired this so much in him, very much how I admired it in George Carlin wearing all black in his later years during his last specials. It’s a symbol of mental transcendence and overall awareness I think, not wanting to waste time and energy in picking an outfit to wear everyday.

I loved his "uniform" and keeping life simple.

AWESOME VID !!!!!!!!!!!

I heard a story that is saved him time in the morning because he didn't need to choose what to wear.

I've been wearing the same outfit for more than a year now!

Nothing wrong with that. Once you find a statement/signature outfit that gives you good social feedback, stick with it. Those good experience will remind you from all around and help boost your confidence. Because you know it works

Nice , I love New Balance, great story .

Thanks for sharing with us this very interesting story. Take care.

Steve Jobs had that drip 💧

Jobs' signature outfit was stolen from "Jonny Quest". Clearly, he was a fan. Mystery solved.

The folk lore is that he did not want to waste any mental energy choosing clothing. He was notoriously focused. He would sometimes greet his managers with “how many things did you say NO to today?”.

When I’m on holiday I wear essentially the same style, it’s comfortable, practical and whatever I pull out for the day will do without having to think it through

This reminds me of long summer nights when I would eat warm cheese in the barn with my grandpa. RIPO grandpa.

The clothing was about image and we already know that Jobs was totally obsessed with image. What I will forever wonder is which original ideas were truly his. The more I learn about him, the more it seems that he stood on the shoulders of truly talented engineers and visionaries and stole the best that was theirs. With that kind of thrust, and with due respect to this departed executive, even pigs can fly.

Such a good Video

Reminds me of Doug Funny opening his closet and like 5 of the same outfit being in there

Steve's jeans and sneakers are the models used for the emojis on iOS. If the change the shirt to/add a black turtleneck the homage will be complete

I am new to cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, but I am very interested and curious to start investing in it, although I do feel this is kind of late now. Can anyone tell me what I need to do?

Steve Job's outfit is the most scientific thing I can understand in fashion world.

Thank you Steve

Every super-hero wears the same outfit every day

Crazy prices for the turtlenecks! 200 dollars!! Madness!

Consistency is the key.

Its worth watching on youtube the Ed Catmull and Larry Ellison on Steve Jobs talk as its mentioned in there too.

WOW A polyester cotton blend turtleneck for $500? Damn, people are stupid! Polyester is a terrible material....

Because of image building, now whenever you remember Jobs you will imagine him in the same attire.

simple and pure. It is easy, save times and modern. comment made before watched the program.

technology, computers, mobile devices, animation industry, fashion, is there something this man hasn't changed?

It requires energy to think about what to wear everyday if you have different types of clothes so it's better to select one uniform and move on!👍

Maybe he’s trying to say I can’t fix the battery drain on every update.

This made me subscribe 🍎

Rumor has it Einstein did the same thing, explaining that deciding what to wear every day was a waste of time and mental energy.

Steve Jobs predicted the future correctly because he created it himself!

*5 mark presentation :- Me : suit and tie *A billion dollar presentation :- Steve jobs :

Funfact: Privately I do wear a black long sleeve shirt by LandsEnd (tall size) everyday, paired with a bluejeans. But combined with black mesh sneakers. For work I need to wear a business shirt, black trousers or black jeans and black leather shoes.

when I was 15 or 16 years old I bought 100 pairs of identical white ankle high socks which where called "Hole in None" and guaranteed to never get a hole in them ever. I wore them every day from then until I was 23 (except for 2 years when I had to wear dark socks for my work). They never got a hole in them, the elastic in the ankles eventually got loose and they were just grungy so threw some of them out, but still have some of them decades later.

That is a nice story of where and how Steve Jobs got his outfit. Anyone who's familiar with Jobs, knows that he didn't want to expend any energy or brain cells on deciding what to wear each day. Conserving every ounce of his mind for greatness. True genius. RIP Steve Jobs.

When you're really busy you don't have time to think about what to wear. I always wear plain white or black t-shirt everytime.

Thanks you for your memory Steve Jobs we will remember you in ours hearts

I need to finish that Steve Jobs doc

Plot twist: He never learned to wash clothes

So u don’t have to change clothes for weeks, months😂

He had a revolving coat rack, it moved clockwise & counter clockwise. He liked to play with the buttons, which was designed like the first iPod. After a brief look at his 100 black shirts, he thought, well I guess I'll pick the black one.

I remember him wearing a different clothes that had the black vest and white clothing but he did have jeans on in the seybold event and in a special event in 1999 he was wearing a suit but no tie though and black trousers

I'm surprised Apple didn't patent this outfit

Never even noticed.... interesting 🤔

This is what you call maturity at it's extreme level

Levi's 501 jeans, newbalance shoes good choice don't know about the black long sleeve shirt, but thanks for info

I just assumed he wanted to want to make some sort of fashion statement at Silicon Valley.

Zuckerberg does the same to save time :)

It removes the low level chore of having to choose which clothes to wear. Less decision making means more efficiency.

There's something missed here: how does it benefit him? Okay, it's iconic. You know it's him. But as a creative, what would benefit would it provide? There's been discussion elsewhere, but in short, it decouples any need to expend the energy to think about dressing to put it into far more (to the individual making the choice) beneficial endeavors. It's also been said that the act of "putting it on" creates a mental modal shift to begin 'the work' or to 'create'. But on a very simple level, having the same means not having to think at all about it. He made a very elegant effort to explore it and developed something he could be comfortable with and then he was done. No more effort needed to decide what to wear, giving him time to develop Apple.

Jobs did a similar thing with his cars, replacing his given car with the exact same model and color several times. First a black Porsche 911, then a silver Mercedes convertible. I’m not sure when he started doing it, but with the Mercedes, at least, he had a deal worked out so he got a new car every six months. This allowed him to drive a car without any license plates, as California had a law that said you had six months to put permanent plates on a new car. I’ve never seen anyone confirm exactly why he did it, whether he was just being a petty anti-authoritarian, or he had some other reason, but it was probably more the former.

Pretty sure all this was in the Isaacson book. I think you missed a few VITAL details. The reason SJ wore black in the first place was so that he could present his Apple projects (with a black background) and highlight the beautiful white object. The reason he wore those New Balance shoes was because part of his negotiation strategy was to go on walks around the Apple Campus (eg. walking around with Tim Cook or the Disney CEO, etc).

Love ur voice

I’m sure a lot of his day was spent thinking about bigger picture things. However, my closet is full of variety clothing that are versatile enough to mix and match. So it’s not a total hassle
