To all the aspiring gentlemen out there ❤😊
I'm turning 20 this year, and honestly I'm feeling lost.
Your videos however, are teaching me what priorities I shall set from now on if I don't want to feel miserable for the rest of my days. Thank you
Stoo overconsuming info
In all seriousness, if you are feeling rudderless like a lot of young men your age, consider joining your favorite branch of the military.
Aside from the monetary and educational benefits, it will give you discipline and direction that will serve you well for the rest of your days.
And you never know, if you decide to make a career of it, the possibilities are literally endless for a smart young man with ambition.
I'm a much older chap and not your target audience but still am really enjoying your channel since subscribing. Never too old to learn. Listen to this man guys, and up your game, it will pay off as you go through life.
Same here. 52 years old. I really enjoyed his video about how a teenage young man can begin to dress like a gentleman.
Not only did I forward it to my two sons and my nephews, I thought it would be useful for an older man, too, who might be better served by a smaller, more minimalist gentleman's wardrobe.
I’m a 20 yo university student and attending an institution in FL is very finicky which the culture and climate. But what I love about these videos is they speak to me so well. I feel like I’m personally sitting down with my buddy from the UK and talking about the current degradation of respectful dress and manners.
A lot of people think I’m trying to be better than them or my upbringing has made me too high class to relate to them. But I have the same issues and possibly ones that are much older than those around me. It definitely makes me more confident to have a nice brooks brothers unstoppable rather than a band t-shirt with trendy sweat pants.
I’m very happy with your upload schedule.
I’m from the US and deeply feel like “GentZers” are scattered around.
The affordable budget video must need it🙏🏾
Gent Z, the fact that you became aware of all these points early on in life will see you well as you grow older. It wasn't until I was 50 when I became focused on some of the points you mention.
Thank you, sir. I'm also just lucky to be a young man in the internet age where we have a lot of wisdom available at our fingertips
Hello, I've recently started watching your videos after discovering your channel. I'm a 24-year-old who graduated from Law School. I'm currently finalizing my master's in criminal law, teaching at the university, and preparing for the bar exam. I've been training five times a week for the last four years. Since I found your channel, I've completely overhauled my wardrobe. It's not that I didn't know how to dress, but I lacked the finesse you've taught me. I've now perfected this skill by getting a bespoke suit and learning to better match colors and textures, as well as understanding fabric care, particularly in washing, ironing, and pressing. Thank you so much for your channel; I look forward to following your content for a long time, be it on RUclips or elsewhere. Thanks again for the excellent video.
Still enjoying the background music too.
Thank you, I think I'll be keeping it from now on and building the library of go-to songs
I'd like to thank you for starting this RUclips channel and being as intellectually generous as you are.
I discovered your channel last week Sunday and have been watching your content since and exploring your work.
You have filled in a big gap in the RUclips market and are doing young men a huge service by consistently doing the work that you do.
I reside in Pretoria, South Africa and am currently 20-years-old. I turn 21 in July.
I thank you for the impact you are making on my life and those of other young men like me.
You inspire us to become better and more refined men.❤
Healthy and enduring masculinity is essential for human prosperity. The culture needs more men like you.
I thank you.
I wish you well all the best in all your endeavours. You and Augustine look stunning together. You maximise each other visually. Gorgeous couple.
Shout-out, man.❤
Thank you for your kind and well-thought-out message. It is very encouraging for me to read comments like this and I am very proud of the community we are building here. Welcome to the channel, sir.
I'm turning 25 this year, I have been working out since the beginning of the year, in addition to reading . Discovering your channel this month helped me with grooming and overall style. Can't wait for you to drop more of such helping videos. Keep it up man !
Thank you for your comment! Good luck with the workouts and books.
If I could give my younger self advice it would be to have integrity in all you do. Do not compromise who you are to please others or the trends of the world. Some day in the distant future you will look back and evaluate your life. Build a legacy you.can be proud of.
I recently walked into Brooks brothers store for the first time and it was amazing. It smelled fancy, shiny wooden floors, great lighting. A nice lady measured my neck and arm and gave me a dress shirt to try on. I fell in love with the quality and fit. I walked out with two shirts. Going back soon!
It is a great customer experience. Once you start shopping there and Suit Supply it's hard to walk into a fast fashion store again 😅
@@Gent.Z haha I’ll check out suit supply this weekend then
@@dannybernal2441 You're going to love it
Great advice. The night I met my husband I knew I’d found someone special because he had ambition and focus, good manners and a clear underlying self confidence … but with just enough humility to avoid being arrogant.
I recently turned 25 and I feel that I’m maturing in many ways in life, your videos really speak to me and I want to completely overhaul my wardrobe and start growing up in a fashion sense now too.
Also a piece of advice to anyone reading, my grandfather always says to me, find something that you love and be the best at it, and you’ll find the harder you work, the luckier you get.
I'm 32 and I'm still of the persue of my best self. I've fallen into some of the pitfalls you talked about and I think mistakes in life teach us how to grow up and set apart from the version of yourself you don't want to be anymore. Thanks, I enjoyed a lot your videos.
Great video bro, you really are a distinguished gentleman.
Thank you, sir
Great video Sir! Brilliant as usual.
It's a really good video. simple and effective one. keep going brother!
Your authenticity goes through the screen. Thank you.
Congratulations on your weight gain, James! Much as I love piano music, I couldn't help feeling the jazz suited your video best. And I would love to see the video with you putting together more affordable outfits. Thank you for another lovely, encouraging, carefully made video.
Thanks, I'd love to see a video on how to pair colors and how to create an aesthetically/interestingly looking outfit in the future :)
Mr gent z, keep doing what you’re doing man. Your videos are very informative and inspiring to young men like myself. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos
Hey man I would for sure love to see a video about building a wardrobe on a budget. I asked for it before and I am glad you are hearing our feedback. Thank you.
James you are wise beyond your years. I have like you always saved money. Even if you didn't top out your 401K at least donate the amount that your employer will match. That's free money. Improve your mind and expand your skills. Read learn about art, history and culture and learn another language. Invest in yourself and you will gain confidence. And lastly a friend of mine who was a professor of finance told me the best thing he taught his daughter was how to move. She is now an executive at a major corporation in England. Best regards Ron
I recently started slowly improving my look I recently got a messenger bag and a dress coat for casual wear and I feel confident and nice in it, it makes me feel like a model
Hello. Your videos are really interesting and useful. Please, don't stop!
I really enjoy your videos.
Maybe thats not for everyone but I think some kind of martial art training is also really nice hobby, even though Im 24 and trained around age of 11 (for around 2 years), this gives me a lot of confidence even though I fortunately never had to use it.
Great channel! Good advice. Be the man you want to be. Don’t be afraid of ambition. Ignore the haters.
Thank you for this Video ✨
I've picked up some nice clothes brands which I wouldn't normally afford by shopping pre-owned on ebay.
Very good suggestion
Gent Z your channel is well researched and valuable to men’s lifestyle choices
I am what you would consider an older gentleman at 52. I would add to the list ‘travel & adventure’ visit interesting countries to gain new perspectives and experience an adventure or challenge your self.
Keep up the good work Gent Z 🤵🏼♂️
Great video, thank you
What I really like about your channel is how you speak and you don’t throw your own biases front and center and colts off as highly opinionated. I already really like how you don’t necessarily abide by ultra conservative rules to manhood. You’re not like the channels that tell you to “man up”, marry that woman, be a man, provide, be tough and hunt and buy guns, don’t drink, etc. You described yourself before as “more hedonistic than your peers” and I totally feel the same way. I’m young. I want a varied life. I don’t want marriage. I personally don’t want kids. I don’t want to quit drinking, I want to be enjoy and not overindulge with alcohol.
I think a lot of your character displayed itself when you showed your interest in the playboy mansion and vintage magazines. Most people I know would steer away from anything playboy related, but you saw it for what it was and didn’t shy from a calm, collected interest in lovely women and lounge life of having drinks with some friends.
Sorry for the book. I just really wanted to say what I liked about your channel.
Great video, as a younger guy I think this was great advice. Especially as this is far more attainable than the ridiculous suggestions of some. Not everyone can be 6'6 with abs and a 7 figure salary, but we can all strive to make ourselves better. Even just that belief in improvement can make you that much better.
Bro you are absolutely right, for a 24 year old i dress so maturely in that so called Old Money aesthetic and wow its surprising how people still consider how a tshirt and jeans is top fashion..... Bro you the best ,we need more
So well said.
This video was great. Keep it up.
Thank you, sir
Can you do video ,,How to dress well at your teen,, (or How to dress like gentleman at your teens) PS: I am 15 and I would like to dress well
That's a great idea! I will do that for sure. So, if there are any specific things you would like me to cover, let me know here and I'll include it in the video. I'll likely get around to making this next week.
@@Gent.Z I would appreciate some colors what I should not wear, because they make me even younger looking. What color and what specific things I should wear, like coat, shirt (material, color, plain or stripped...) maybe some suit, accessories etc.
Can’t wait for more videos about fashionable clothing
Best wing man great advice.
Great video
I would like to see a video about how to dress on a (college/first job) budget. Brands I like to shop from are Abercrombie and Fitch, Zara, Urban Outfitters, and Uniqlo
Another big reason to move and sweat! ...is mental health. Your inner chemistry. Currently a massive amount of men are suffering from testosterone deficiency. This manifests itself in low confidence and depression. Fix this by lifting weights.
I wish I had heard this advice when I was a young man. Other tips are don’t be your own worst enemy and don’t go through life being afraid of life. Also, having someone to share it with makes all the difference in the world.
I Would like to see the budget wardrobe video!
I enjoyed this. Would also be interested to see more about yourself living in America and daily life as a gentleman. Are you also a jazz singer? Would be interested to see some of that also
Hey Gent Z, I hope you are doing well. I wanted to ask you what type of music you play on guitar. I am a fellow guitarist myself and enjoy classic rock, blues and jazz. I would love to see you doing a video on this sort of stuff. Thank you!
Watching your video has inspired me, brother. While the term gentleman seems to have a set image in common parlance, are there other slightly different "variants" of the gentleman? I'd appreciate it if you could develop this topic in future and help us to better integrate the personal and gentlemanly styles!
When I was a younger guy, I met a 80+ year old couple sitting on a bench in the sun, holding hands.. I asked them how they managed their relationship to get to this point.. the answer was that difficulties in live glued them together, they didn’t give up too early..
4:48 You look great!
good lad
Good video
Video idea: basic things about whisk(e)y a gentleman should know.
yeah that video would be good
6' 2" and it's all wisdom. Bravo to you! But 25 is more like 1/3 of your life.
Maybe if you’re unhealthy. I think a lot of healthy gen z can expect to live to 100
Video games are addictive, as is scrolling. Same logic as the slots.
As a true gent you have to get into shape and learn to fight!
I enjoy your videos even though I am 60 years old. This video lives up to your typical level of great content but you really got one thing wrong. You can be trapped in a relationship, professional and personal (marriage) at any age that limit you. It is imperative to remain a gentlemen and learn how to bring limiting relationships to an end or have the ability to renegotiate the relationship again. This is part of living well and being a gentleman. Keep up the good work.
how to be stylish = not being fat but being rich
Just too young, too old are 50%. Half of the remaining are weird or creepy. Top 20% at 25, easy peasy.
As far as women’s preferences go, most women would find a 25 year old too young, even if they are 22, 33. But you can overcome that with maturity
Gonna have to disagree with you about shopping at h&m and Zara. Brands like them are the bottom of the barrel, fast fashion trash.
Hey, your insta id?
