    9-year-old video, and it’s still excellent.
    Not to say you haven’t come a long way, because you have!
    Love your channel.

    I find it problematic that we can only see 1/3 of the coat when you wear it. You also emphasize that it must fit which would even make a whole view more important for us to follow your tips.

    • @glenn2595
      @glenn2595 6 лет назад +5

      I agree, I was going to mention that, Anthony, you need to show us a full view of the coat and how it fits. Telling us it's 3" below the knee, or that your jacket sleeve and shirt cuff are protected isn't enough. Get your wife to film you if you have to and do at least one pull back, or add stills to the end of the video. I really appreciate your advice and follow your videos, but this one looked rushed from a production standpoint. of course I'm replying to a video shot 6 years ago and you've gotten better at it, but I wanted to 'voice' my opinion as well.

    Hello, I just found this video (yes, I know I'm 11 years late lol) and I have to say: as a 19 year old guy who is trying to build a timeless wardrobe from scratch, I greatly appreciated the simplicity of this explanation. Thank you very much.

  • @RealMenRealStyle

  • @RealMenRealStyle
    @RealMenRealStyle  11 лет назад +1

    I have colder weather and a long classic overcoat is fine - but I do layer and rec you do as even large coats can't trap warm air around the body as a few layers of wool and cotton can.

    Just bought a dark grey herringbone wool blend overcoat. Its fits the shoulders perfectly when worn over a suit jacket and I'm happy with the feel of it just over a jumper. My concern is it feels a bit big around the waist, not familiar with this type of coat I wondered if this was normal or not? maybe I should return it for next size down??

    Hi Antonio.
    I'm having trouble choosing a size for a Soviet/Russian navy greatcoat.
    I have a 42" chest and the store has a coat for that size.
    But, it's an online store and I don't know if the coat is oversized to account for a suit to be worn underneath. Which I don't want, because I live in Australia and winters aren't THAT cold here where I need to wear 4 layers of clothing.
    What should you suggest I do, Antonio??

  • @domodepiano
    @domodepiano 6 лет назад

    I have some nice dressy high end and middle of the road civilian overcoats and top coats, but by far I'm most excited latley about a moss/olive green military [ surplus ?] USA made light weight trench manufactured by Sterlingwear of Boston I just picked up, it was issued to someone (has their name inside collar and inside the belt) but doesn't look like was ever used , 8 bucks and looks every bit as sharp more so actually than my dept store one, and I got it for 10 percent of the price. Thrift stores are the way to go on buying these things as they can be found for pennies on the dollar.
    This is a great guide Antonio and gives people shopping new used high end or mass market , the hallmarks to look for and things to consider to make a smart purchase

    I can't really find something very clear on the internet about it. I hope you can help me Antonio.

    Hi, Antonio!
    I really enjoy watching your videos and hear you talk about menswear. I find that you usually answer all of my questions regarding the topic at hand in your videos! Great work. I am also greatly impressed on how much work you seem to be doing and how much material you cover!
    I have a request for a video that i think would be a good supplement to the existing ones;
    A video where you go a bit in depth on various fall/winter jackets such as the pea coat and the like.

It would it be better if I could have seen how it actually should fit. By having the cámara zoom out and focus how it look with from the arm and length. Last comment, had to forward almost two minute to start receiving the message of the video.

On a topic like this, it would be very good to see the entire coat. Maybe you could get more than just the one camera recording so you can edit in and out as the video requires. Thanks again.
