Very nice video, thanks for sharing. Love the waistcoat with the lapels. Cheers 😊
Thanks for watching Sjoerd👍🙂
One thing I always appreciate about true country wear is the classic beat up jeans and a simple tattersall shirt tucked in but still elegantly sloppy🤷.
Hi Pete, that is a good look for a casual wear👍 Glad you enjoyed the video👍🙂
Love Love the countryside look. Love it.
Glad you like the look Maurice👍and enjoyed the video🙂
Some excellent ensembles !
Glad you enjoyed the video👍🙂
Hello Chris. The country side look is my favorite style. I have sported most of the outfits you covered in your video. You really have an eye for detail. Cheers Ron
Hi Ron, glad you enjoyed the video and that you enjoy this style 👍🙂
Every time this video or your other countryside look comes up I watch it straight away, I wish more people were talking about this look. Cant wait till September to get my tweed suit and mustard jumper back on 😅
Hi there, glad you enjoyed the video. I agree with you it is a great look and one that could be worn by a young person with a bit of flair or an older person in a more traditional manner. I will continue to cover this look in the future and glad you are preparing for cooler weather 👍🙂
Hi Chris,
In the UK it's definitely the country look. In the US I'm not sure what. At any rate it's my favorite. The variation of color, texture and fabric is infinite. Your examples and ideas really work and are an interesting and informed guide to getting it right 👍.
Cheers
Hi Douglas, glad you enjoyed the video and I share your passion for this look. The examples I used are not exhaustive, but they are effective at getting that country look and demonstrates a good starting point for getting this look👍🙂
Great taste as always.
Thank you and glad you enjoyed the video👍🙂
Thanks Chris! During the winter months I wear wide wale corduroys quite often. During fall and spring, I opt for finer wale. Both go well with country jackets.
Hi Mike, Corduroys are great to wear as are Cavalry twill trousers. generally 8 wale (thicker) corduroys are more winter wear and 11 wale (thinner) is for more warmer wear, and you are correct they both go so well with hacking/tweed jackets. Just an observation from personal experience for others reading this, avoid wearing darker colours in the hot weather. In the cooler months I also wear Moleskin trousers👍🙂
@@TheBritishDapper I was not aware of Cavalry twills, but looked them up. They are now on my short list. Thanks.
What a wonderful video Chris. I wear the countryside look to the office. My favorite of your outfits is the one with the green-brown tweed jacket with khaki chinos. What I have not seen is any kind of boots. Is this part of the countryside look?
Hi Kay, glad you enjoyed the video. I wear these looks regularly, they are my go to looks when not wearing a suit. Great to hear that you wear this look to the office. As for boots, I tend to wear boots in the colder/wetter months and I wear heavily brogued boots or a paddock boot, but you can wear chukka boots or even Chelsea boot style with these looks to get that paddock boot vibe, not forgetting the good old Green Wellington look in inclement weather👍🙂
I really agree with your colour suggestions - I'm sat here typing this in a burgundy pull-over and lovat trousers! I really liked the tattersall lining of your wax jacket - that was a lovely little detail worth mentioning, I think.
A couple of things I think you missed out on (if I may be so bold). Firstly, the prevalence of checked shirts, be they gingham, tattersall or whatever. Solids work fine in the country look, but I find check shirts work really well, especially with knitwear and/or tweed. Obviously you have to balance your textures a bit, but they're a great casual option.
I also have a big preference for moleskin jeans over denim. I find they resist the wet better, and are harder wearing than corduroys in the cooler months. Plus, they differentiate you from the other 99.9% of the population without appearing eccentric (in my view).
I also wonder if knitted ties are worth a mention. I appreciate they have become much more popular in recent years, but I was wearing them decades ago before they became fashionable! They have a lovely texture that works well with all the woollens and tweeds we tend to go for.
A final mention for the inherent sprezzatura of a well-worn wax jacket. If I ever feel I look too well put together, I just throw the wax jacket on for instant shabbification!
Hi there, Thank you for your thoughtful response! I'm glad you liked the colour suggestions and the tattersall lining detail on the wax jacket. It’s always great to hear that others appreciate the small touches.
You bring up some excellent points. Checked shirts, whether gingham, tattersall, or others, indeed add a wonderful dimension to the country look. They pair exceptionally well with knitwear and tweed, providing that perfect blend of casual sophistication. I’ll definitely consider emphasizing them more in future discussions.
Moleskin jeans are a fantastic suggestion too. Their durability and water resistance make them a practical yet stylish alternative to denim, especially in cooler weather. I hadn’t thought of them in that context, so thank you for that insight.
Knitted ties are another great addition. Their texture and versatility make them a perfect match for woollens and tweeds. It’s interesting to hear that you've been ahead of the trend on that one!
And yes, the charm of a well-worn wax jacket can’t be overstated. It’s the perfect piece for adding a bit of rugged character to any outfit.
Thanks again for your input. It’s contributions like yours that make these discussions so enriching ☺☺
I myself live in the countryside and I often wear tie and suit even when walking the dogs on gravel trails. Sadly, I end up wearing my old scuffed up brogues with the fear of damaging newer pairs. Also, I find it frustrating that I oscillate frequently between messy chores and casual relaxation. So I end up changing in and out of elegant attire frquently. :(
Hi there, great to hear you employ a suit when walking the dog and I don't blame you for wearing your older shoes when walking on travel trials, I would say that walking on dusty/gravel surfaces in the dry does tend to kick up that very fine dust that makes your shoes look worse than they actually are from a wear prospective. I fully understand your frustration of changing from one look to another, I personally without the additional things a prepare for videos, tend to still work with 3 ongoing ensembles, work wear (gardening/chore based), casual for popping into town and then a little more formal for work or meeting for drinks or evenings out. Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for your comments👍🙂

Nice outfits
Hi Melvin, glad you enjoyed the video 👍🙂
Glad you enjoyed the video 👍🙂
Thanks🙂
What a great video, I love the British countryside look. Do you mind sharing what brand that quiltet waxed jacket is?
Hi there, glad you enjoyed the video and love this look. there were 2 quilted jackets in this video, one waxed and the other was just insulated. Both were inexpensive yet great quality for there price point. The Waxed Jacket was from Rydale Clothing UK www.rydale.com/ and the other was from a very small company called Hunter-Outdoor www.hunter-outdooruk.com/ hope that helps 👍🙂
@@TheBritishDapper Thanks. I appreciate it tremendously.
I'm suspicious of wearing wool in the country because of moths (except in the winter). Don't they just land on you and lay eggs? What is their life cycle? Is this a needless concern?
Hi Stephen, a great question where are concerned, but in general if you follow these points the risk of infestation is vastly reduced. Moths may take between six months and one year to mature, they reproduce as soon as they emerge from eggs (cocoons) as adults. It is when they emerge from the cocoons the risk of them eating your cloths is at it greatest.
Whilst moths could land on you when out and lay their eggs (cocoons) , it is rare and if you use a clothes brush and brush your jacket down before returning it to your closet (wardrobe).
Moths prefer dirty, sweaty, or food-stained wool, so if you keep them clean you can further reduce the risk. You can then use protective moth proof garment zip clothes bags and you can additionally use natural moth repellents like cedar blocks or lavender sachets.
I use cedar tree oil and spray the back wall or floor of your wardrobe, or if you are putting jumpers (sweaters) in draws spray the inside of the casket.
Doing these 3 simple things should significantly reduce the risk, the irony is that the risk of moth infestation in wardrobes tends to be more prominent in towns or cities than in the countryside. Hope this answers your question and don't let this put you off buying or wearing woollen items (jackets, suits or jumpers (sweaters)).👍🙂
Buy a proper mic please. The audio is horrible. Otherwise, great video
Sorry about the acoustics, but glad you enjoyed the video and it's content👍🙂
@@TheBritishDapper I’m thrilled about the content. All my audio outputs are at the max and I have a hard time hearing. Should be an easy fix
