      Real Men Real Style I live in very hot and humid Georgia and in my office Not only would a suit be extremely uncomfortable even in tropical wool or light Fabrics wearing a suit would stand out as officious. In fact polos and khakis are the recommended men's outfit. How should a man with a beer gut where his polos? tucked in? Does he need or would you recommend shirttail garters? I found your link to KK and Jay and was pondering this question.

    When I was bigger, one mistake I made was to wear bigger clothing thinking that it made me look smaller or that it hid the extra pounds I was carrying. Bigger clothing will only make you look bigger or sloppy due to the extra fabric. And let's face it, I was not hiding the fact that I was big. Update; I am now at 100 pounds lost! I went from a 43 to a 34 (I fit into a 33 the other day but I need to lose more to feel confident about wearing them). I am almost 200 pounds now and I have changed my focus from weight loss to overall fitness because I was in definite need of firming up. My ultimate goal is to be 190 - 195 pounds and fit not just thinner. And I am enjoying the process. And I have no more belly or man boobs.

    • @RealMenRealStyle

      I watched this video and thought.....I just eat a large steak a day(morning, lunchtime or evening) every day/every other day, which will naturally make you less hungry for longer....which means you will eat less, which means you will put less weight on.
      Steak is expensive so go to a few butchers and do a deal with them and tell them you will buy lots of steak if they drop their price a little. Eat lots of fruit as well when you do get hungry. If you crave chocolate..have a little.
      Name me one dude who wouldn't eat steak every day, given the opportunity.
      Freeze those steaks and bring them out when you want one.
      If you are a vegetarian...good luck with your belly..or disguise it as with the video above.
      I'm off to eat a lovely steak.
      In a two month period i lost 1 stone and started to notice SALT in foods more easily(i was totally put off crisps).... Jeans fit better. This Christmas which just passed by, my wife bought me jeans two sizes down on the last pair(for a joke and a challenge..the joke was on her...THEY FIT. Even my nurse who recently told me a little weight loss wouldn't do me any harm suddenly weighed me...and asked.."WHAT ARE YOU DOING..have you been dieting?".
      I ended up sharing my eating with her.....she seemed fascinated.
      I think i will call my new way of eating...." ...the belly they all patted WOKE ME UP!!"

My jawline is fairly defined, my arms are thin, my thighs and legs are fairly slim, but where the 20-30 extra pounds I carry are all located in my stomach area. This video is beyond helpful to me.

    Thank you for the tips. I'm not huge or obese, but I am carrying a bit more weight around my midsection than I would like, and I have limited options to get rid of it due to a back surgery and ongoing serious spinal issues. The rest of my body is proportional, but I have to deal with a protruding midsection. For everyone just saying "lose weight" or "slim up the midsection" I want to remind you that not everyone can do those things easily with significant spinal and/or back problems.

  • @s1nnocense
    @s1nnocense 6 лет назад +4

    Well, I have "kind of a tip" here. For many guys who tend to have a beer gut it's much easier to build up some muscle on the top than to lose the extra weight, since this is often a genetical issue. A little workout just for chest and shoulders is relatively quick and you can easily do it at home. You can even do some pushups on the toilet before a meeting and the "pumped up" effect will go a long way.
    Side effects include better overall fitness (missionary anyone?), health and more fatburn even when you're not working out.
    I work out something like half an hour each week (3x10 minutes) and i look super fit, even with a little gut, which is fine and pretty normal in your fourties.
    Keep in mind, I don't say change your life and become a fitness freak... just a little shoulders and chest and you'll quickly become far more alpha looking.
    Great channel btw.

    Former US Marine in my late 40s, 6'5" 270. I was 210 when I graduated boot camp in 89, and rocked everything I put on. I'm stuck in this netherworld of not looking fat, but not in-shape anymore either. At my age you really have to switch up your strategy about exercise and food, because your metabolism changes. If you don't work a bit harder to stay on top of it, you start slipping. And at this age you start to have just a bit less energy and work is in full swing. giving you less free time than ever. Easier to keep the momentum going rather than get it started, so younger guys....take heed. Prepare now for what's to come.

  • @wilshirestrasse2220
    @wilshirestrasse2220 6 лет назад +32

    It's tough for the guy with a full bread basket, but here are my thoughts: A). Pleats are your friends. They have a longer rise, which allows them to be worn around the problem area, with the pleats deflecting the extra pounds. B). Wear suspenders. Your slacks will stay put. Lots of guys think they're old school, but until that spare tire is lost, you gotta' hide, blend, and deceive the world. C). Wear dark colors. Antonio is quite correct. Listen to him! D). I sell suits every day to all kinds of shapes - Please pay attention to the following: Don't wear skinny slacks. Ever. It is rather hard for a salesperson to keep a straight face when you step out of the dressing room wearing pants that look like you used a crowbar to get in them. E). Finally gentlemen, don't let your wife dress you.
    As always, your jacket and shirt were elegant and appropriate Antonio. Keep up the good work.

      Wilshire Girl there’s a point of contention I have with point A. Pleats are not my friends. It creates a ballooning effect on me. It makes me look sloppy. Now let’s understand my issue is not a beer belly as Antonio defined it. My buttocks and thighs are large as is my belly. He’s not addressing this as I am sure you’re not. And that’s fine given the topic. Now theoretically if there’s one deep pleat per side then yeah it might work. Such a pant they don’t make.

    @swabby429 6 лет назад +1

    The tip about dark fabrics is good. Be sure to avoid drab dark clothing. Many chunky guys seem to gravitate towards drab tones because they think the lack of color will act as some sort of camouflage. On the other hand, be careful about loud Hawaiian shirts; they're somewhat cliché for heavier dudes. Understated Hawaiian shirts do work well for weekend wear though if worn very sparingly.

    I fought the idea of wearing suspenders for my larger belly but I finally gave in several months ago. I am glad I did switch over to suspenders because I no longer have to fight all day to keep my pants up around my belly or fight to keep my shirt tucked in. I recommend the comfort waist band with suspenders because it does allow the pants to move with the belly or buying pants one size bigger.

I have lost weight before but the belly stays. it's also the issue of when I wear a t shirt, Henley, Polo or just untucked button down is that it rides up on me and exposes my belly.

  • @douglasjensen8986
    @douglasjensen8986 5 лет назад

    Guys, note that there is a difference between your waist (which is at your hips) and your belly which is above your waist. If you wear your pants at your waist, their belt line will slant downward and the front will be at your waist, which looks bad. Instead, wear your pants so that the belt line is horizontal, meaning the front is against your belly not at your waist--that is a much better look. This usually requires suspenders--so make your suspenders a positive contributor to your look, you don't need to try to hide them. 1) Use suspenders with buttons instead of clips except in very casual circumstances. 2) Wear smart suspenders, such as with a pattern and a color that makes them an accessory (see the RMRS videos about choosing appropriate accessories).

    I like the vest for casual wear. I don't often "dress up" anymore since retirement, but vests are out there now in many colors, cuts, and are very functional. Summers are hot where I live but a light weight vest helps me with my considerable girth and is usually not commented on especially worn over the venerable t-shirt or worn closed over a bare chest.

    I really appreciate your efforts Antonio. Thanks. Going for suspenders instead of belts will be pragmatic. Lesser the contrast the better I guess between pant and shirt color. A brighter tie can bring flair to the outfit. Please do correct me if I am wrong.

    I find that having a subtle vertical pin stripe through the material is pretty good - and definitely avoid horizontal stripes. I rely on black a lot. The thing is that living in the Australian tropics, a coat or even long sleeves is just stupid. People ask you if you are going to a funeral or a wedding. It's culturally inappropriate in regional tropical areas here. Got any suggestions in this type of situation?

    I appreciate the vid. I do those things. Living in Mexico I wear Guyabara shirts and suits. I even have some bespoke Guyabara sits. I always go with lighter weight shoes and matching belts I also buy and dress in outfits. I use nice jewelry to draw the eye away from my belly. I also wear unlined khaki jackets and suits. Also, I pay extra attention to sharp creases and well-shined shoes. I am glad you dealt with this subject. Where were you 40 years ago when I started in business?

    Hello.... one rip I didn’t hear in this video is attention toward posture and how much it helps any man in any style of clothes. Posture and alignment “speak alot about the man”....and enhance the effort he’d make in clothing choices, how comfortable he presents himself and in making others more comfortable too.

    Very useful advice. I am overweight and all the extra weight is on my mid-section. Since I put the weight on I now need to use braces to keep my trousers up. My main problem is shirts - if I buy a shirt to fit my body without the buttons bursting out, the collar size is far too big as my neck is normal size, as are my arms and legs! Shirts (in England anyway) are always measured by collar size. The answer obviously is to have them custom made, but that is very expensive. Perhaps I need to go on a diet!

    Imagine walking in the desert for 5hour and stop by a taverna were they serve well cold pilsner urquell.
    San miguel & Leffe are high rankers.
    But nothing beats a nice bottle of red wine.
    I found out that Trapiche never failed me.
    Red wine goes with all kind of meats even fish no matter what the experts say.
    But when your throut is really sand dry a cold beer is blessing from god.

    Hi Antonio. I'm so glad that you have uploaded this video as I used to be so stylish but have really been struggling due to having a lot of weight suddenly around my middle (due to one of the side effects of the medication that I'm taking). When I try on shirts or jackets they might fit round my middle but are huge across my shoulders and across my arms and chest. Just to be clear you would suggest getting these things to fit around the middle and get the rest of the shirt (i.e. shoulders, arms etc) altered by a tailor?

    Last one,. Don't be afraid of color. Wear the darker clothing as Antonio suggested. But don't be afraid to add a little something with color. A scarf (winter) a tie, a handkerchief would be great. Josh Gad is a little big guy who does this extremely well. Jim Gaffigan too, when he is not making fun of himself during his stand-up.

    For when you're dressing more casually: I've got a couple of almost "formal" looking, solid black, pullover hoodies (if you can imagine that) that work great. The hood gives the look of a thicker upper back/chest area, and if I hike the sleeves up just a little bit, it makes me look huge in the biceps and shoulders. An artificial "V-taper," if you will. I haven't set foot in a gym in years, and I look frikkin YOKED lol🤣

    Just found your site and subscribed. I have a bit of a gut and was going to a cookout with some childhood friends that I had not seen in 30 years, so I wanted to look good. I took your advise on the longer dark shirt (not the type you talked about) un- tucked with with a nice pair of jeans. I actually looked really good, I stopped at a grocery store on the way and I noticed a number of woman checking me out (really not my imagination )That was a plus. All in all a simple change did well...Thanks
