All good points, Jeff. I just got rid of ties that were too wide, which were in style during the 1990s. My rule is that you should be able to wear everything in your closet.
@@TheStyleOG Skinny ties were stylish - maybe they still are? But did you ever see a heavy man wear a skinny tie? Especially with a two button suit/sport coat that shows a lot of shirt and tie? Looks like a string on a balloon. A tie should be 3.5 inches or 3 inches if it's a knit tie. Only a thin guy can wear a skinny tie - he would look like a clown in a 4 inch wide tie. So endeth the lesson!
Only issue that I have with the “1 year“ rule, is that the type of job I have doesn’t require me to be that versatile in my daily wardrobe, so getting rid of classic dressier clothing would be wasteful. Also, here in Cali, sometimes we don’t get all of the “seasons”, so we don’t have the opportunity to rock the warm weather styles we invested in over the last 2-3 years.
Thanks for the shoutout OG! I'm guilty of T-shirts, old jeans, and old work clothes. I still have the long t-shirts that were popular in the early to mid 2000s. Those tees looked like we were wearing gowns!! I also have Southpole and The Source magazine jeans just in the closet taking up space. Still have 2 Footlocker polos from 23 years ago and some polos when I was a manager at a restaurant about 5 years ago. I'm definitely going to make a drop off at the GoodWill this weekend. Again thanks for the shoutout **Salute**
I'm 26 and I'll admit I just started getting rid of all of my graphic tees!! I only wear them to sleep or the gym now. Also no more ripped and distressed jeans for me
Dude knows what he's talking about. Just last year I was kinda forced to de-clutter my wardrobe. It feels so good to get rid of stuff that's just taking up space in your dresser/closet. "If you're not careful, the things you own will end up owning you".
"Addition by substraction." Only legends speak the truth like that. And only sophisticated legends can pull off that turtleneck - suit jacket combo so well. OG's class is off the charts. Salute, my man! o7
Here are a few more items to jettison: 1) Outdated overcoats 2)gym clothes with holes in them 3) calf high gym socks 4) baseball caps with sweat stains 6) beanies with loud product marketing like “Banana Republic” 7) scarves that pill and shed 8) sweaters that itch. Great video as usual!!
Hey OG, good advice as usual. I've been retired for 10 years and still have now my 12 year old black pinstripe suit. Classic cut, not too tight not too baggy. Has come in very handy for funerals. Still rocking my Florsheim wingtips too. Going to way too many funerals now.
I like the honesty in your video! I am 58, divorced and trying to up my game. I really appreciate your tips on style! I started throwing out clothes that just don't work these days. Thanks!
One of the most interesting things I’ve listened to in a minute. “Through out, anything you’ve not wore in the previous calendar year”. That’s one that many of us who have too many clothes is very hard to do! If you’re willing to do this, first, ask any friends, or fam, if they would like the item of clothes you’ve decided not to wear, for this purpose alone. If it’s still in great repair, try to sell it on a site, like eBay. If once you’ve exhausted all options, donate it to your local Goodwill, because despite of your taste in style. There will ALWAYS be somebody out there who, “at the time of its popularity”, couldn’t afford that item of clothing, and will cherish it like they had just bought it as it were new!
I actually went thru my entire wardrobe a few weeks ago and tossed out everything I hadn't worn in a year. It's amazing how much room I have in my closet! Keep up your videos. 👍
Good, practical advice. My wife and I used to swap summer and winter clothing (from closet to attic and vice versa). It finally got old, so I kept a few items of each in my closet and gave the rest away. The wife hasn't narrowed hers down enough yet for that, though. :)
Completely agree about the underwear. Once the elastic is stretched out or the you can no longer read the writing on the tag, time to get rid of them! I cleaned out my closet of jerseys, old workout clothes that no longer fit and cycling/mtb riding clothes.
Yep OG. I have plenty of I hope I can fit clothes. That's why I'm taking your advice tomorrow and start donating my clothes, replacing them with I can fit my clothes! Great video! Keep up the good work.
I appreciate your content. The purpose of your video clearly matches the title. You don’t just make videos to make them fit to some product you’re getting paid to promote. It’s a breath of fresh air.
Truth told all the way through. Glad I found your vid. I need to reduce those “haven’t worn in a year” clothes. And tossing my last pair of baggy jeans TODAY‼️
Underwear is a hard one todo. I went thru a purge this winter. I kept a couple of “stretched” boxer briefs as transition pieces to my new underwear. Now that spring is here time to purge oldies once again. Good advice, O.G.
Jeff, that blazer with black turtleneck looks great! You pull that off perfectly! Matches your beard and is a perfect less is more look! A nice stainless steel watch band with maybe a touch of colour on the watch would really bring it together! Definitely gonna be on the look out for that combo.
Somehow I missed this video when you posted it two years ago but the message is timeless! (For me, it is your best video: I have between 500 and 600 shirts and close to 1,000 neckties and gravitate towards the same 50 to 60 in each category-shirts & ties-that I wear over and over. The rest take a ton of space.)
I am just leaving the military where it's uniform all the time. All my clothes and styling is from the early part of the decade. I'm glad I found your channel
Mr. The Style O G....oh my God your Videos and sense of style are everything ...thank you for helping these Brothers out.We have great men out here who just sometimes need a little help....love from my beautiful island of Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲💙 and my husband's city New Orleans. Keep on doing what you doing ,we appreciate you.
Another perfect list! Ha ha. Glad to say I actually go through my wardrobe in Spring and Fall and toss or refresh items. I’ll add regarding that “hope I can fit into them later” category, I got into the worry that I’d not be able to find or afford an item later but what happens is if you do slim down you feel better going out and finding new stuff anyways. You make it happen. Really enjoying this channel!
Daily rotation on t-shirts, underwear, and socks are always monitors by me every month after washing them weekly! Whenever I subtract them out of my rotation I use them for a major purpose besides my worn-out underswear which is manditory! My old socks are my buffing rages for my shoes in rotation being either cleaned or polished or both! My old t-shirts are used for rags to clean my truck rims and tires. My elders taught me whenever something gets worn-out there is always a purpose for using it for something else to save money! *(O.G. CONTINUED SUCCESS)* *(YOUR TOPICS ARE GREAT)* *(AS ALWAYS O.G. SALUTE)*
DON'T get rid of that outfit in this video anytime soon big homie, that's FIRE! This was my first time on the channel, it was a RUclips suggestion and I just subbed. Keep up the great work!!
This is one of the dopest channels I came across. You really shaped my thinking when it comes to my wardrobe and just keeping my grown man swag on point. Appreciate ya!
Finally got rid of my “hope it will fit” items about six months ago...cathartic. Be happy in your body. Hanging on to those items is like saying I will like who I am soon instead of like myself now. Closet and soul are more at ease.
I have to admit it took me quite a while to finally give up my square toe dress shoes. Oh well, I guess the saving grace is that I've owned only one pair of those shoes lol! Salute!
My father told me decades ago that there is no such thing as a square toe dress shoe. Of course, I was wearing a pair with a blazer when he told me...for the last time.
Man, Jeff. The universe sent this video to me at a perfect time. I promise I was JUST about to do a purge this week, getting rid of things I no longer wear or like. Thank you for this, this will encourage me to let go! Salute.
In the beginning of the summer of 2018 I took every article of clothing hanging in my closet and turned the hangers around so the end with the point on the hanger was facing out. I then took every folded shirt and everything else above on the shelf and put a sticker (red dot) right under the front of the collar. At the beginning of summer 2019 I got rid of EVERY article of clothing that still had the hanger facing the wrong way and everything that still had the dot sticker on it. 50% of my closet went buh bye. It felt really good AND I got to shop for a few more things I needed to fill out my wardrobe. Try it. Trust me it works. I let my wife go in and take everything out no questions asked so I wouldn't be tempted to keep anything.
I just moved in April and got rid of almost all of my clothes and got new ones. I like to keep it causal. Polos, basic t shirts, chinos and jeans. Also a few button up shirts
I’m a new subscriber and really enjoying your videos. I religiously wear a tee underneath any button up shirt. In fact, I don’t feel put together unless I have a great crisp tee underneath.
Yeah I bought a sharp pair of white denim slip-ons for my trip to Hawaii...only problem was they were one size too big!! But they went well with my white linen pants and shirt!! I had to buy inserts to stop the slapping noise when I walked!! LOL!!! Great video Bro...Saluuute!!
Love the look of the black turtleneck with that jacket (which is my favorite)...I just have a question...notice that the upper arm area of the jacket (because of the sweater???) appears kind of tight. Never looks like that with your shirts? Is that the correct fit or should the jacket size be larger in the arm to accommodate sweaters?
So true O.G. It’s funny this video dropped because just two days ago I gave away a lottttt of almost new cloths to the Salvation Army for the same reason you just said. Some of the items I gave away I hadn’t worn in a year or more. Crazy timing. Salute 💪🏽
That’s what people used to tell me about my turtle necks about eight years ago don’t get rid of anything at all comes back style is like a revolving door goes in and out always comes back except that cross color bullshit
Thank you Jeff for the comment regarding the shoes. I always learn start with the feet first and I’ve kept at Matto all these years I’m 62 now. I’ve had a habit in a passive buying shoes that weren’t quite the right fit but why did they look good and I’ve learned the hard way only buy shoes that fit. I want to thank you for your channel it is help me I consider myself to be adapted dresser but always room for improvement thank you so much your friend Dr. Wilton White
Excellent!! As we get older, it is sometimes hard to get rid of clothes. On a different note, great turtleneck and blazer combination! Looking Sharp Jeff!
If you're going into someone's home, take your shoes off. You'll bring all the dirt, grime, shit, pee, and all sorts of unpleasant stuff your feet have tread on.
Just discovered your channel, great stuff! You’re echoing all the things my wife has been saying for years.... and I’ve been slowly listening. Especially important as I’m pushing 50 but still very much young at heart.
Bro! You must’ve seen my closet, because you nailed it on every point. I also needed to rid of my old warm up/sweat-pants/sweat suits. Hangin’ on too long cuz they still fit, but they hella-old...Haha! Thx Man!!
The one year rule is incredible. When I instituted it with my wardrobe it cut my junk out really quick. Mostly, I got rid of ugly gifts given by other people (lol) but also it allowed me to get rid of the three button suit I had sitting in my closet. I don't like 3 button or double breasted suits, so the first suit I got rid of were my double breasted ones. But 3 button suits don't look good on me; the suit was purchased new and never worn - so I didn't want to get rid of it without having used it at least once. Ugh, right? I donated the 3 button suit to one of those stores that sell inexpensive donations (think salvation army) - hopefully somebody who could use it for their job interview got it. Better in their hands than in my closet Now, if you look at my closet, everything there has a purpose. Even the white pants - I need it for that one night a year where I might be on a cruise boat and they have the "wear white" event
some great tips, should try shooting in a diff location with a lil going on at the back, maybe a flower vase, some books or something.. make it a lil more lively
I just recently did this and purged everything in my closet that either didn’t fit, was too worn or just didn’t like. The Salvation Army got quite the hall and I hate to say but some of the items I’d never worn!
Honestly, I've kept a particular Gucci-looking Suede pair with the intentions of putting taps on the heels. A decade's gone by and I finally wore them @ night ONLY because of the Vintage Gucci-swag revival. #that'sAllthey'reGood4
Oh man, you walloped me with this list, and I found myself guilty of just about everything on your list, so much so that after viewing this video, I went right to work on it and have not turned back, so accept my thanks for setting me straight, 🤣I needed it.
That blazer and turtleneck combination is righteous
Thanks!
The Rock staple 😉
And the Clark Sisters would add, "Blessed and highly favored"! Real clean look.
Ain't it! It's poppin
I was thinking that same thing flying back to the east coast for Christmas and New year's
All good points, Jeff. I just got rid of ties that were too wide, which were in style during the 1990s. My rule is that you should be able to wear everything in your closet.

If it doesn't fit, you must omit!
Indeed !
Lol
Throw out all underwear you've worn more than a year? Awe man! That means I ain got no draws man!
Hilarious!
Its time to buy some underwear bro. WTH. 20 bucks on Amazon.
by the way! That was a funny comment. LOL
@@Anthony-sd9yz I never knew! Just wear them until they get holes or something.
PaladioBlaze I hear ya. Lol

Keep things FRESH and CLEAN.
Basics are BEST. No wild colors or

Thanks Troy!
I’m so guilty of a lot of these habits I feel like you were talking to me personally. Thanks for keeping it 💯
always Reginald!
I actually went thru my entire wardrobe a few weeks ago and tossed out everything I hadn't worn in a year. It's amazing how much room I have in my closet! Keep up your videos. 👍
Crazy like I’m just finishing the 15 things to have before 40 and this drop like clock work. Great content 💪🏿
Thanks Mel !
Gotta use those old sneakers for yard work!! Lol. Ok ok I guess I don’t clean my yard that often. Love you bruh!
appreciate you Aaron!
Always need a old pair of shoes for house/yard work washing car etc
I mean yea you are right. But the problem is having 6 pair of "yard work" sneakers like i have...i gotta let them all go but 1...😀😀😀
That's what I do..sneakers or boots get old..I use them as "fuck around " shoes
Good, practical advice. My wife and I used to swap summer and winter clothing (from closet to attic and vice versa). It finally got old, so I kept a few items of each in my closet and gave the rest away. The wife hasn't narrowed hers down enough yet for that, though. :)

I call those clothes that don't fit and the ones I haven't worn in a year, "Hopes and Dreams" 😂 I appreciate you Jeff
Hopes and dreams !
Niqqa u a motivational speaker or sumthin?
I actually call those my lounge in the crib / work around the house clothes
I did finally fit into my swim trucks after a decade and losing 20 pounds. Felt pretty awesome. And then i never wore them again...
Yep OG. I have plenty of I hope I can fit clothes. That's why I'm taking your advice tomorrow and start donating my clothes, replacing them with I can fit my clothes! Great video! Keep up the good work.
Just donated all my clothes that I will never wear because they're to small. Great tips on how to stay fresh in 2020. Thanks "O.G."
You got it Lionel !
I appreciate your content. The purpose of your video clearly matches the title. You don’t just make videos to make them fit to some product you’re getting paid to promote. It’s a breath of fresh air.
Get rid of the not white anymore T-shirts
Indeed!
Easy, I don't have any white T-shirts.
I wish my brother did this.
Harder these days. Shortage of t-shirts since they are making face masks
Truth told all the way through. Glad I found your vid.
I need to reduce those “haven’t worn in a year” clothes. And tossing my last pair of baggy jeans TODAY‼️
Salute!
I’m going to start now and clean that closet out!!!!! 👍🏾
My man Clifton!
Right on. We know it but for some reason don’t want to get rid of it. Thanks for calling it out!
no problem!

I try !

Or one's correct conscience, no less!
Underwear is a hard one todo. I went thru a purge this winter. I kept a couple of “stretched” boxer briefs as transition pieces to my new underwear. Now that spring is here time to purge oldies once again. Good advice, O.G.
Turtle neck is 🔥 G!
Thanks Dmytro!
Those Steve Harvey suits were never “in style”.
Not for me ! Lol
Seriously... why they ever make quintuple-breasted suits?
🤣😂😂😂😂😂👍🏽
🤣⚰️ 😅⚰️ ⚰️⚰️I’m dead 💀 🤣🤣😂😂
you got that right!
KiloCharlieOne they corny looking lol
I keep them around for when I have to do dirty work in the summer like construction/painting around the house or mechanical work on the car.
Jeff, that blazer with black turtleneck looks great! You pull that off perfectly! Matches your beard and is a perfect less is more look! A nice stainless steel watch band with maybe a touch of colour on the watch would really bring it together! Definitely gonna be on the look out for that combo.
Thanks Jason !
O.G. you forgot to get rid of the old stained under shirts...
Indeed!
Rags for shining shoes or cleaning the car.
Or
Oil rags when
working on your car 🚘
Stains come from perspiration and deodorant. I shave and switched to dry. Zero stains!

Don’t forget the toothbrush, make sure to keep em fresh

Every 3 months
No real time frame for replacing. I replace mine when I drop them on the floor. That keeps them pretty fresh, by accident...
Daily rotation on t-shirts, underwear, and socks are always monitors by me every month after washing them weekly!
Whenever I subtract them out of my rotation I use them for a major purpose besides my worn-out underswear which is manditory!
My old socks are my buffing rages

No problem !
Man, so many jewels to live by. Thanks for the information
Had that style in the 70's, it funny how fashion re-cycles itself.
Facts.
Great video the seasonal clothes section helped me out and I got rid of 17 articles of clothing. Continue the good advice
Will do !
I have to admit it took me quite a while to finally give up my square toe dress shoes. Oh well, I guess the saving grace is that I've owned only one pair of those shoes lol! Salute!
Salute Damon!
My father told me decades ago that there is no such thing as a square toe dress shoe. Of course, I was wearing a pair with a blazer when he told me...for the last time.
Just getting this. It's one of the most useful video I've seen on RUclips of any category.
Man, Jeff. The universe sent this video to me at a perfect time. I promise I was JUST about to do a purge this week, getting rid of things I no longer wear or like. Thank you for this, this will encourage me to let go! Salute.
Salute MG!

I let my wife go in and take everything out no questions asked so I wouldn't be tempted to keep anything.
Great way to do it Dan!
Dan: I like that system and may give it a try..... thanks!
Love the black turtleneck with the grey blazer. All time favorites
Thanks!
I workout in my graphic shirts. My Harley shirts stay!
I just moved in April and got rid of almost all of my clothes and got new ones. I like to keep it causal. Polos, basic t shirts, chinos and jeans. Also a few button up shirts
Aww man, I have gots to get a blazer with a turtleneck combo going now...💯🔥🔥🔥
Classic combo!
I’m a new subscriber and really enjoying your videos.
I religiously wear a tee underneath any button up shirt. In fact, I don’t feel put together unless I have a great crisp tee underneath.
Welcome to the channel!
Yup I was holding on to my Steve Harvey suits...Goodwill here they come
aww man!
This 2020, I've given away most of my clothes. Looking forward to building a new wardrobe with your guidance !
God bless you !
Lookin sharp!!!!
Thanks Isaac!
Yeah I bought a sharp pair of white denim slip-ons for my trip to Hawaii...only problem was they were one size too big!! But they went well with my white linen pants and shirt!! I had to buy inserts to stop the slapping noise when I walked!! LOL!!! Great video Bro...Saluuute!!
Faded dress clothes and dress shirts that are ironed on too high of heat.
true indeed Jeremy!
What a stupid comment
I love real talk but still giving you sound advice. I gotta do this.
Love the look of the black turtleneck with that jacket (which is my favorite)...I just have a question...notice that the upper arm area of the jacket (because of the sweater???) appears kind of tight. Never looks like that with your shirts? Is that the correct fit or should the jacket size be larger in the arm to accommodate sweaters?
Lillol F just a jacket that fits properly
So true O.G.
It’s funny this video dropped because just two days ago I gave away a lottttt of almost new cloths to the Salvation Army for the same reason you just said. Some of the items I gave away I hadn’t worn in a year or more.
Crazy timing.
Salute 💪🏽
Salute!
That’s what people used to tell me about my turtle necks about eight years ago don’t get rid of anything at all comes back style is like a revolving door goes in and out always comes back except that cross color bullshit
Turtle necks are time less but not everyone can/should wear them. Long necks good.
Man, I just came across your channel and it’s great! Finally a great channel for men over 30...
Thanks!

Shelf life expired!

Say bro, if you don't want that 39 R cotton double breasted suit, I can take it off your hands.
Excellent tips....time to do some decluttering.
Thanks Cee!
Pay respect to the OG.
Respect Toy!
Excellent!! As we get older, it is sometimes hard to get rid of clothes. On a different note, great turtleneck and blazer combination! Looking Sharp Jeff!
Thanks Shawn!
My mans got Asian homies. Removing your shoes in their home is REQUIRED.
If I see carpet, I take my shoes off
If you're going into someone's home, take your shoes off. You'll bring all the dirt, grime, shit, pee, and all sorts of unpleasant stuff your feet have tread on.
Yep! My best friend is Chinese. Shoes come off at his house!
Not Asian but it's mandatory at my home
When in Rome...
Just discovered your channel, great stuff! You’re echoing all the things my wife has been saying for years.... and I’ve been slowly listening. Especially important as I’m pushing 50 but still very much young at heart.
I purge my socks and underwear every 6 months... usually New Years and the 4th of July.
Nice !
Bro! You must’ve seen my closet, because you nailed it on every point. I also needed to rid of my old warm up/sweat-pants/sweat suits. Hangin’ on too long cuz they still fit, but they hella-old...Haha! Thx Man!!
No problem Craig !
“Don’t be a hypebeast” lol lls
I just spent twenty minutes cleaning out old clothes in my closet after watching this video. Thanks for the reminder Jeff!
No problem KM!
The one year rule is incredible. When I instituted it with my wardrobe it cut my junk out really quick. Mostly, I got rid of ugly gifts given by other people (lol) but also it allowed me to get rid of the three button suit I had sitting in my closet. I don't like 3 button or double breasted suits, so the first suit I got rid of were my double breasted ones. But 3 button suits don't look good on me; the suit was purchased new and never worn - so I didn't want to get rid of it without having used it at least once.
Ugh, right?
I donated the 3 button suit to one of those stores that sell inexpensive donations (think salvation army) - hopefully somebody who could use it for their job interview got it. Better in their hands than in my closet
Now, if you look at my closet, everything there has a purpose. Even the white pants - I need it for that one night a year where I might be on a cruise boat and they have the "wear white" event
appreciate the input PG!
some great tips, should try shooting in a diff location with a lil going on at the back, maybe a flower vase, some books or something.. make it a lil more lively
haven’t wore a graphic tee since i was 22, felt so childish with them on
I just recently did this and purged everything in my closet that either didn’t fit, was too worn or just didn’t like. The Salvation Army got quite the hall and I hate to say but some of the items I’d never worn!
Hey Jeff, who invented square toe shoes, and why the heck did we wear them? 😝
I have no idea, the devil perhaps! Lol
Honestly, I've kept a particular Gucci-looking Suede pair with the intentions of putting taps on the heels. A decade's gone by and I finally wore them @ night ONLY because of the Vintage Gucci-swag revival. #that'sAllthey'reGood4
Oh man, you walloped me with this list, and I found myself guilty of just about everything on your list, so much so that after viewing this video, I went right to work on it and have not turned back, so accept my thanks for setting me straight, 🤣I needed it.
