See how the experts do it.
David: Hi it’s David Boris from be Better Guys.com, A guy’s guide to getting a
life. We’re talking about the fundamentals that every guy should have in
his wardrobe and now we’re here to talk about outerwear.
Outerwear matters guys, because obviously you got to stay dry and you
got to stay warm but you want to look stylish. So every guy should have
between three and four coats. Obviously it depends on where you live if
you live in Minneapolis, you know you need more if you live in Miami
you can get away with less.
Two types of styles of coats that I’m going to discuss, one of them first is
dressing your coat, an overcoat or top coat such as this which you would
wear over a suit on a very nice date to a job interview etcetera. On rainy
and snowy days, Brian is showing exactly what you need, this is a trench
coat. You wear this, again, rainy and snowy.
I have seen a lot of guys wear this in bright sunshine, no, that’s your bright
sunshine. This is your rain and snow coat. But you can also have some
casual coats, a leather coat if you want to look hip in your vein and your
not a vegan, a parka for al those games and— a nice scarf and a
lightweight coat that you can wear those 50 to 60 degree days that you get
in spring and fall.
But you need other things to go with your outerwear besides just your
coat. For example, every guy needs to have a man size umbrella not those
little touts that guys tend to put in their bags that don’t really cover you.
It’s like putting a newspaper over your head, you’re still going to get wet.
I’m talking about a full size on guard, Brian a full size umbrella with a
wood handle and a tip you can use in a fight.
Also in addition to that you want a good pair of gloves. Good pair of
gloves not only keep your hands warm but they last for a long time. Look
for leather on the outside, cashmere on the inside, good pair of gloves can
set you back between $30 and $300 depending on how much you want to
spend that’s up to you.
Also think about hats, a lot of guys are wearing hats these days. They are
making a strong come back. Brian plops on a summer hat, this a stingy
Brim Fedora. You don’t wear it in winter fellows, this is summertime
only. In the winter, a couple of options your obvious ski cap but you can
also wear a Wool Fedora that looks good and a lot of guys are wearing
driving caps these days, great look, I happen to like that a lot.
Finally boots, you’ll know them if you need them depending on where you
live. Next we’re going to talk about one of my favorites, underwear and
socks.
