Onitsuka Tiger and Asics are the same company, Asics used to be known as Onitsuka Tiger in the sixties but it changed its name to Asics in the late seventies, and then rereleased their classic shoes under the revived Onitsuka Tiger. The modern Onitsuka Tiger is essentially a sub-brand of Asics that positions itself as a high-street brand, pretty separated from the rest of company.
I'm from a time when Champion was what poor people bought. And I'm not into fashion, really; more into bags and pocket knives. I just watch your videos for the great storytelling (edit: ... and filmmaking and editing). And it keeps getting better. Happy New Year
These videos are so good. The whole channel, actually. I find myself coming back to so many looking for ideas. So entertaining and informational at the same time.
This video is just you getting into more and more dangerous situations while talking about clothes. Idk how you would be able to remember everything haha
Great video as always! Such a strange coincidence, was talking to a friend who's not into good looking clothes and I was trying to change his mind. I just happened to show some pictures of Ludjero Martins and I said "Yeah everything just fits him so well" and now you're here saying the same thing. Wild!
Thanks for the Best Made recommendation. I normally think Duluth's stuff is trash but this stuff looks like what Orvis would make if it were a stylish company. Those shetland sweaters...tempting!
I like when you randomly drop Eminem bars. Holy Toledo, miss Ohio. We should be datin (Dayton), but she's from Cleveland. She's a Bengal, chick is catty. That's the shortest thing for a dress(address) since an addy (Cincinnati) That whole scheme was brilliant.
Oh hey it's Theo from Theo & Harris! Joking aside, how am I now just finding out about Michael's own channel? I also love the similar aesthetics and quirkiness from the T&H channel.
Great video Michael. For graphic (or even plain) tees and hoodies I usually go for vintage 80'/90' pieces. You can sometimes find real gems in thrift stores or goodwill. Happy new year!
I had the same thought process as Michael when I started getting into style when it came to graphic tees. That I thought they were lazy or uninspired, but then I saw how Justin Theroux wears his vast collection of graphic vintage tees, and I’m definitely starting to come around to them.
I bought my first pair of Bean boots for 10 bucks at TJ Maxx last week. I never liked the looks of them but now I wear them every single day 😅 Oh and I have the Filson rucksack now. You know. The one you and stridewise don't like 😂 It is unconfortable as shit but I still love it!
I bought the Taylor Stitch Whitney Parka and I would say it is very warm. Not warm enough to go to Antarctica but warm enough for everyday wear. At 650 fill, I have to unzip the jacket if I've been walking because it's that warm
That freenote shearling you had sold was a winter coat... Maybe. With the new updates they've done, would you be interested in owning it again? Why had you gotten rid of it?
Watched a couple of your videos and never heard you mention Ship John in Portland, Oregon. They make leather goods, waxed jackets and great tshirts. Check them out, I actually know a couple other really good local companies if you’re interested. All American made with great materials.
Michael, I’m looking at getting the black Levis Sherpa jacket that you are wearing in the video. I have a medium cord (non Sherpa) that fits well but not sure if I should go up a size to compensate for the lining. Thoughts?
Destroy The World.....aka: The Iron Snail followers. Wow, lots of info in this video. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to find my world destroying pieces.
comment i could easily message you about but I'm choosing to publicly post: please continue to address everyone who views your online videos as "you people" i'm so serious
I Always get a weird sense of nostalgia and calm with your video's. I can't point out exactly why. It feels like hanging out with friends long gone on a friday night.
Omfg Boa fleece looks so good, like you could wear it 4 weeks without changing. (It would only smell good in my mind ;/) & Onitsuka tiger shoes seem like they are so much more tho! Corduroy Peacoat is a must buy 4 sure! I think a colab between you and Jenni Elle would be off the chain. Cheers!
Damn you for exposing those Woolrich jackets. Seems like the prices have been inflated in recent months. Could be the winter season. Could be the inflation of all prices in general, I suppose.
Really wanted to love the Orslow 107 but my legs are a curse. It definitely fits so great on skinny legs and long legs, and girls. Sized down on the 105 and it's more effort to break in at the waist but it's pretty great too. J.Crew also makes a heavy weight French Terry hoodie that's a fraction of the cost of the I&W.
Nice video but I deeply suggest you to stay away from the Avirex (or Schott) B-6s, they’re quite bad as jackets and the sheepskin they’re made of is usually crap.

Bahahahaha i try my best!
Love that the subscribers are going up 🙏🏼
(Same!)
The Iron Snail ebay effect is real. Everytime he mentions a piece of wear, the closing bid prices have been atleast £10-£25 higher
Hipster menswear, nice 👍
TY!

He’s taking us by storm!
Thanks for making such great content the last few years. Take care of yourself Mike.
PHIL thanks for always supporting me!
@@TheIronSnail YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME NOW.
Are you planning on releasing an all black jean jacket? If so, I am sold.
OOooH yes!
Thanks for the Best Made recommendation. I normally think Duluth's stuff is trash but this stuff looks like what Orvis would make if it were a stylish company. Those shetland sweaters...tempting!
VERY! I love them! They used to make wool fleeces too and those were insane
There's still a fair bit of supply or maybe they just made more this season.
I like when you randomly drop Eminem bars. Holy Toledo, miss Ohio. We should be datin (Dayton), but she's from Cleveland. She's a Bengal, chick is catty. That's the shortest thing for a dress(address) since an addy (Cincinnati)
That whole scheme was brilliant.
I’ve never really been a fan of messengers/briefcases, but that Gucci bag (at 2:16) alone converted me
Oh it’s insane!
Great video as usual, Micheal!
Ty!!
More color plz. Yellow 💛. Bright green 💚. Pink . Purple 💜. Light blue 💙. Red or orange 🍊.
Agreed!
Can’t wait for 2022 - the year I buy an iron snail jacket.
THE YEAR I FINALLY MAKE ONE!
At 9:48, it's a derby you were right the first time, oxfords have a close lacing system the ones you showed were an open lacing so they were derbies.
If every time u mention my brand RRL i could give u 2! likes….. i would! Happy New year my man and 22’ is gonna be a great year for you! 💪🏻
Ty! And for you too!
Looking forward to another year of great videos. Keep it up!
Ty!
WOOOOO THANKS FOR A GREAT YEAR
THANKS FOR ONE TOO
That vintage hartmann is stunning though. Thou i hate logos and stuff but great contrast right there to leather straps and handle
AGREED!
that's the thing.. when garments are priced /reasonably/, the labour must be cheap then..
You have indirectly ruined my bank account w this video! Another great video!!!!
GOT EM!
If you haven’t listened to the Todd Snyder Throwing Fits interview you should, some interesting insight and he seems like a very cool person
Oh hey it's Theo from Theo & Harris! Joking aside, how am I now just finding out about Michael's own channel? I also love the similar aesthetics and quirkiness from the T&H channel.
HEY!!!

merry Christmas Mickey!
Merry Christmas xoxUnD3R0aThxox!
Truman make some pretty nutty boots.
I love Truman!
Great video. I would recommend homage t-shirts and sweats. Super comfy made in the us
Looking at them as we speak!
I bought my first pair of Bean boots for 10 bucks at TJ Maxx last week. I never liked the looks of them but now I wear them every single day 😅
Oh and I have the Filson rucksack now. You know. The one you and stridewise don't like 😂 It is unconfortable as shit but I still love it!
Hahaha i still use mine constantly! We’ll learn to love it
if you're willing to fork over the money for a beefy winter parka, check out Canada Goose.
Yuketen's Maine guide boot is easily the best boot I've ever worn. Nothing else quite like it; but they are expensive.
I hope you make this a yearly thing, or even a 6month thing
Oh i will!
I'm definitely getting the oven mitts you're wearing.
I just pulled a cast iron skillet out of the oven before pressing record
I got those Moonstar alweather in all black. Really like them.
Oooh all black is a cool look!
@@TheIronSnail its slightly less 'odd' looking, lol. My wife gave them a compliment and those are hard to come by.
Usually which size you are wearing on the 3L Down Park ?
Thanks.
Literally trying to sell my red ll bean puffy best haha
You need to get those orslow boa fleece pants
I think it’s a must
Great video man
Ty!
Hey Michael!
What do you thing of Ghurka products?
Thank you!
I bought the Taylor Stitch Whitney Parka and I would say it is very warm. Not warm enough to go to Antarctica but warm enough for everyday wear. At 650 fill, I have to unzip the jacket if I've been walking because it's that warm
I might have considered getting a black one but I didn't love the colors they had
@@Stridewise that's fair. I don't wear black much but I loved the navy color
Mr. nick!
Oh good to know!
shout out to the 1 legged man @1:45
Lol "Studio DArtisan"
That’s me just giving up and copying stridewise
@@TheIronSnail bad habits lol
You do a great job on the videos and I like your taste. Idk ...you will have to be a millionaire to buy all the stuff you like
Bahaha I know, gotta make the bread to get the drip!
I-ma-jean, I think?
You are 100% right! My b there
Did you check out the Uniqlo x White Mountaineering Collab? :) they did great fleece sweaters! Bought the Black one and its gorgeous :)
OH checking out right now!
@@TheIronSnail 😄👍🏼
I think I should move from Levi's to Polo to try to get some sweet discounts for RRL...
……….i would not be opposed
That freenote shearling you had sold was a winter coat... Maybe. With the new updates they've done, would you be interested in owning it again? Why had you gotten rid of it?
Definitely! I’ve even been in contact with them!
Onitsuka Tiger is owned by Asics
What about diemme balbi or anatra for duck boots?
I need to look into them!
yo mike I was almost finishing high school 05 but it said u was a kid 04 lol...... but anyways like always love the video
Hahahahahaha
Ty!!
check out the Nigel cabourne parkas
Oh i will!
Any interest/opinion on wearing pleated trousers casually? Looking for brands, ideas on how to style, etc. Would love to see your thoughts!
YUP!! I’ll get on it!
Watched a couple of your videos and never heard you mention Ship John in Portland, Oregon. They make leather goods, waxed jackets and great tshirts. Check them out, I actually know a couple other really good local companies if you’re interested. All American made with great materials.
Hey!
BRIAN!
Where did you got your Champion sweater which says Cape cot?
A store called Soft as a Grape!
What are the boots with the white soles in the thumbnail though?
Yuketen Maine DB boots!
I enjoy the channel, very entertaining. For future reference: don't pronounce the "d" in Goyard, it is French and the "d" is silent.
Good to know! Ty!
... Crescent Down Works? 😏
😏😏😏😏😏😏😏🤤
Michael, I’m looking at getting the black Levis Sherpa jacket that you are wearing in the video. I have a medium cord (non Sherpa) that fits well but not sure if I should go up a size to compensate for the lining. Thoughts?
I’d stick true to size! They open it up a bit for the Sherpa
@@TheIronSnail Yeah, ended up buying the medium. Thanks for getting back with me. Much appreciated.
It’s not a LV chest….it’s a trunk….
We gotta introduce you to some real boots. Here's one, Fitwell Yuma. Check them out. Also, Lowas, Zamberlan, & Kenetrek
You’re always off topic
Destroy The World.....aka: The Iron Snail followers. Wow, lots of info in this video. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to find my world destroying pieces.
Better suit up!
I hope you get over your love of fleece -- it's an enviornmental disaster.
Cargo pants still aren't cool.
lol i think u need leather gloves lol
I have some!! Left them in Brooklyn sadly
I cannot tell if you are 15 or 40
I get that a lot
@@TheIronSnail It’s a good thing, keeps people on their toes. Got that Ambiguous swag

You & Oprah STOP
I Always get a weird sense of nostalgia and calm with your video's. I can't point out exactly why. It feels like hanging out with friends long gone on a friday night.
Well that’s one of the nicest compliments i could ever hope for!
I am actually curious about the type of the jacket that you are wearing in the video!?!? Pray tell!!!!!!
2 years later, I wonder what you'd still be excited about?
Try buck mason sweatpants they are amazing in my opinion. They fade like jeans too
Oooooo okay i totally will!
@@TheIronSnail great if u get some let me know if u like them or feature them in a video if u want. I have 4 pair now
Omfg Boa fleece looks so good, like you could wear it 4 weeks without changing. (It would only smell good in my mind ;/) & Onitsuka tiger shoes seem like they are so much more tho! Corduroy Peacoat is a must buy 4 sure! I think a colab between you and Jenni Elle would be off the chain. Cheers!
Onitsuka Tiger shoes are great quality and feel super old school but the sole is so flat and thin, even worse than regular Converse imo.
Love Jenni Elle!!
Man this was a great video. Enjoyed the pieces and content. Good work my guy
Ty!!
whats next? $400 pair of socks? jesus...
really good videos dude! love the editing and your humor man keep it up!
Ty my friend!
@@TheIronSnail great editing man ! hope to see your channel grow!
Amazing content mate, quickly becoming my favourite channel on YT. Videos on Japanese denim jeans and jumpers please lad 🤘🏽
Hey ty! And deal!
That 3l jacket is a ripoff when you consider At that weight 800 fill is not warm and you might as well buy ptagonia or north face nupste
Oooh interesting! I need to see one IRL!
Damn you for exposing those Woolrich jackets. Seems like the prices have been inflated in recent months. Could be the winter season. Could be the inflation of all prices in general, I suppose.
The Todd Snyder x LLB boots are amazing
Couldn’t agree more!
How do you afford this stuff?
Your stuff reminds me of Wes Anderson making clothing/fashion content, I love it
Thoughts on rag & bone?
Aime Leon dore. Aime Leon dore. Aime Leon dore. Thank me later
oOOH okay!
Really wanted to love the Orslow 107 but my legs are a curse. It definitely fits so great on skinny legs and long legs, and girls. Sized down on the 105 and it's more effort to break in at the waist but it's pretty great too.
J.Crew also makes a heavy weight French Terry hoodie that's a fraction of the cost of the I&W.
I actually have a J. Crew one! (Well i think it’s their heavyweight)
@@TheIronSnail I have the heavy weight too! It’s called Waffle Lined lol. And it’s going for $25 right now 😍
I also like clothes
Crescent Down Works = Best Down Outerwear. You are welcome.
Nice video but I deeply suggest you to stay away from the Avirex (or Schott) B-6s, they’re quite bad as jackets and the sheepskin they’re made of is usually crap.
Did not know this! I’ll def look into that
These were all my favorite things of 2021 too
Subscribed since 2k, happy to see the same quality on those videos and 13k subscribers! Way to go, Michael
hey ty!!
I'd be interested in what would recommend for a minimalist and affordable buy it for life wardrobe inventory. Would make a great video!
FULLY AGREE!
You gotta check out KATO jeans. They are awesome and are made of Japanese denium. Mine have lasted 5 years without a sign of damage.
I love Kato!
You look familiar
So do you
the dark americana style vibes are fire
I have a pair of the moonstar all weather shoes, would definitely recommend them!
Good to know, I’ll try them!!
The end reminded me of the Animaniacs Pinky and the Brain. 👍🏻👍🏻
Bahahahaha the best compliment i could hope for
What jeans are you wearing in this vid? Been on the hunt for a solid pair of indigo selvedge
LSG Brunswick T! Great little company!
Great video. I am at the CC Canal right now, cheers from the Cape!
Cheers!
Hey BTW you convinced me to get a b3 bomber jacket
xd
No way!!!
