@@gentlemansgazette hi I'm only 15 years old a sophomore in high school on most dressed up kid in my school I'm always clean I'm always pressed I always smell well I take very good care of my suits I only have one trench coat though what should I do do I need more than one does the color was restrict me it's Navy
I love how people will critique this man when they specifically come to here to learn how to actually dress. I personally have learned so much more about clothes from you sir. I have invested in my first pair of expensive shoes and I've learned how to pair colours so much better. Thank you kindly sir!
OMG Thank you... I've been looking for the "rubber slippers" forever. Now that I know they're called galoshes it'll make the searching soo much easier. I have learned so much from you and your content you put out. Dankeschön
Haha. Even more dangerous than thieves is my own absentmindedness. No matter how much I invest in an umbrella, I will lose it sooner or later. Excellent video as always!
Hi. Could you please make videos on how to dress up for the ff: 1. When you live in a tropical climate 2. When you are on a tour (e.g. comfortable yet stylish shoes other than sneakers that are good for plenty of walking -- summer and winter). Thanks!!
For casual jackets, a good alternative I can recommend to Barbour is the Swedish brand, Fjallraven, who make hunting and hiking clothing. They use their own very breathable cotton/polyester fabric which is waxable. I have both the insulated and non-insulated version of their Raven jacket, a hunting style jacket which is understated enough to wear anywhere, and has a fairly slim fit and high armholes.
When I want to look dapper in rain I pull off a blazer with a yesterdays Wall Street journal over the head. Very classic and people might think I’m a high powered stock broker
Agree the trench coat is a timeless classic, and goes with anything. For years i have worn a navy 3/4 coat with liner from London Fog. For winter I have a gray wool trench for dressy occasions. I think the over shoe for men is a good idea -- the rubber will also help you avoid slipping on black ice in freezing weather. Don't spend a fortune on an umbrella -- basic black will do.
I had the chance to test drive my new burberry trench yesterday on heavy rain. Amazed at how well it handled the water. Thanks again for a great video.
Get the wax jacket if you are under 30 and above. Get the trench coat if you are over 30. Wearing a trench in places where younger people gather sometimes puts off a try hard, tacky, matrix inspired kind of vibe that you probably don’t want. It’s weird because overcoats and pea coats are basically just heavier versions of them visually, but it is what it is.
You only look like a try hard, or tacky, or matrix inspired if the fit is off. If you dress to match a sartorial life, typically you are surrounded by people who also do so, so don't try to scare people off because of your fear of being judged.
Sven thank you very much for this video, it is very useful. In particular, I really enjoyed the part about shoes, I always needed this sort of information.
Lately I've been liking the look of tall boots. I think a pair of waterproofed leather boots that resemble the older riding boot styles would go well with elegant men's clothing as well as being quite functional.
If it's hot and raining, tropical weather. It's a hot, tropical, rainy summer's day, skip the trench coat. It will make you feel too hot. Just use the umbrella on its own.
I feel like this is such an undervalued dress category for both genders. I still haven’t found my perfect rain coat. I have however found a wonderful umbrella that has lasted me several years. It’s of Japanese construction similar to their paper parasols (the framework) and it is impressively sturdy even in heavy wind. As a young, vegetarian female of unsubstantial wealth I don’t even relate to the majority of your videos but I love them anyways.
You're referring to both sexes, not gender. Gender is a term invented fairly recently, by Dr John Money, for the purpose of seperating stated identity from biological reality. I'll leave it to the reader to look up the controversy surrounding Dr Money and his experimental medical procedures.
Raining is the perfect opportunity to showcase my beloved Maglia Francesco umbrella featuring 1786 russian hide. Very elegant and an excellent companion for gentlemen ⛱
Another gem. I expected a video on a variety of trenchcoats and you presented much more. As always I come away with a broader awareness of options and more. That striped umbrella is a killer. Thank you, sir.
Hi Sven! Great info your channel provides! Wish it were cold and rainy here where I live so I could wear tweed blazers and sweaters but I live in a hot climate!
ive been looking for a trench now for years, given up ordering online. I thought I would go the whole hog and get a burberry. when it arrived i could not see my hands with it on and the eupolets were halfway over the shoulder. i sent it back and over a week later with nothing i phoned up only to be told my money had been returned. usually when you order on line you receive a complimentary thanks there was nothing from them. i said you brag about being tailors to the british army and cant even get your sizing right. all the girl kept saying was choose another size. the only way id get another is if i went into their store. they are famouse for their garbadine cotton but is that 1914 coat the same spec as the present issue, somehow i wouldn't bet my house on it.
You can also apply (or restore) Gore-Tex like waterproofing to clothes as well as shoes, using sprays like those from Nikwax. I assume it would work pretty well on most cotton-gabardine classic trenchcoats, for instance.
Nice video! Another good idea would be to also make one on "snow gear" with the Canadian climate in mind (where it gets down to -40 and snows for 6 months). Maybe introduce some nice shoe brands for walking on snow, ice, and slush. I really liked your shoe passion boots btw.
If you're outside less than 30 minutes, you likely don't even need winter boots. I wear a pair of waterproof Geox Amphibiox dress boots for Edmonton winters, and it's just fine for ice and slush. I also use Accton galoshes over dress shoes, and it's okay, but I'd rather have ankle coverage in deep snow. Rubber galoshes are simply invincible on ice.
Yep I want a Barbour jacket.... bedale, beaufort. Handsome, proper... awesome. Or a trench coat too. but yeah, a waxed cotton jacket, british gentry gentleman coat.
Sven, I have a rather specific question. I own a traditional khaki double breasted trench coat and normally wear a flat cap with it. I am starting a new career in funeral services and wonder if I should get a darker color trench coat and opt for a more formal had, such as a fedora? Also, would it be proper etiquette to have an extra wide umbrella to offer rain shelter to funeral attendees?
i have a greyish seethrough trenchcoat material feels like some kind of plastic/vinyl and i found it still sealed from the 1950s update: googling around for it i found that its the one (exactly similar to) that "Bill" wears from the netflix show "mindhunters"
Any ideas on (re-)proofing trench coats? Aquascutum recommends to bring them to a dry cleaner. Though, I wouldn't trust dry cleaners as much as myself.
Jesus Christ is this man pleasant. I stumbled upon your videos from another channel where I learned about your wallet (way too expensive for me but they look nice that black on red is very nice) and I gotta say this is a really neat channel.
When it rains I like to get inside a massive bin liner (Americans would call it a trash bag, the French would call it a sac du poubelle, the Germans would probably call it einer Gerschübenflooferderzeinheimßrabbereissengrübber, or something like that). I put eye holes in it obviously, I'm not an idiot. It _really_ freaks people out after dark but the terms of my parole mean I have to be home by 3pm anyway so it isn't really an issue
Good Video! 🙏🏼 i think I’ve missed from which brand your water repellent Jacket is, the Navy Blue for casual occasions ☺️ can you Tell me the brand and Model? Kind regards
Haha, I work at Chipotle and we use galoshes there all the time when we don’t have or forgot our proper slip-resistant work shoes! Except we call them shoe-guards and are pretty flimsy.
On umbrellas, they become impractical in very windy climates. They're rare where I live (Nova Scotia) because of how quickly they will be damaged by wind.
Love that tie

@@BillyS3459 It's the cold, hard truth. Don't get me wrong, I wear such things often as well, it's just that I know what such clothing implies.
Letting the team down mate I expected you to be skiing in a duffle coat, over a tweed suit with some wool lined boots
as he cackles aboot ending the world
You really got low expectations. I expected him to wear a cape over a frock coat over a morning coat
I expected batman

Truth. I bought my first pair of handmade Italian Oxford shoes based on Sven's videos about dress shoes.
Why do you love it?

How do you lose an umbrella? lol
I've owned a few trench coats. The longer you wear them, the more comfortable they get. Its like wear PJ's out of doors.
I love how he has all the bad wardrobe items as well. It's like he knows, sometimes, function over form.
This has got to be on of the best videos you have ever made, it’s very helpful, especially since I live in the UK where it rains a lot.

Fjallraven is overpriced for what it is and doesn't quite have the same class as other alternatives..

I just slap on old rubber chicken on my head and tie the head and feet together around my chin. Looks great and keeps me really dry
great video you always look dapper
Glad you mentioned Private White. Great quality clothing.
I have a vintage Ralph Lauren umbrella that I've gotten many compliments with over the past few rainy days
Tartan?

The umbrella with seat attachment was superlative! :)

I had almost hoped for the oilskin. My favourite when it comes to raining days.
Have been waiting for this for a long time 😁

They did forget the raincapes and rainponcho's, those are als very perfect for your protection by rain!!
They didn't fit the criteria of being stylish.

Who puts a laptop in his pocket?
Nah bro that's his phone remember he's living in the 1960s
Keep Out the joke would’ve been funny if you used the time telephones started

Just got my Burberry Trench Coat! Thank you for the tips and advice!
Great vid Raphael & I loved your vid on trench coats & I will be a proud owner... moving to Glasgow☔ soon where it rains more than Manchester☂️ 🤘🏼
I would really recoment the umbrellas from Cartier. They are so stylish 😍
Another thorough video 👍
Do you have a video on umbrella etiquette?
Another great video, Sven. Could you please do a video on Cossack Outfits? [2:11] Thanks again!
Can’t wait to whip out my galoshes so I can wear my air Jordan 4 retro in the rain

For me:
Raincoat: Aquascutum. (Loro Piana's are pricey).
Umbrella: Brigg oakwood and silk canopy.
Boots: Crockett & Jones.
Briggs now only offer the silk canopy with the "kingsman", in a stripped chestnut.
I really like the moving picture at 4:08 and 8:27. Can you tell me where did you bought it please.
Yep I want a Barbour jacket.... bedale, beaufort. Handsome, proper... awesome. Or a trench coat too. but yeah, a waxed cotton jacket, british gentry gentleman coat.
I have a Dockers waxed stain defender , it's sort of a bomber and barbour jacket mix, it's very nice, I don't think they make them anymore though
Nice. I'd like a Harrington jacket rather than bomber, and Barbour is just iconic and such, even the brand is enticing. But yes that's cool
if it's good enough for James Bond, ... their Beacon Sports is such a nice jacket.
I love my Barbours (I have two, a heavier one for winter and lighter for warmer months)
0:47 that is a really great ring!
that burberry coat looks great on you; I got to try that specific coat on at a burberry shop in my city.

vinegar; but be very careful...
Shoe covers

Literally perfect day for this video lol, it's raining and going to rain for another week here in Iowa
im surprised you didnt mention Mac Jackets here.
Macs > Trench
@@jt1559 i agree, macs look a lot better.
I have a collapsable umbrella from Fortnum & Mason. It is very convenient and looks good. M.
Can you do a review on the brand John Henrics, especially their leather gloves.
In Yorkshire when it rains we wear t-shirt and shorts. Same when it snows.
Interesting, Thank-you for your advice.
You should look up old german army Shoes called „Knobbelbecher“. They wont let any mud or rain in and look really good.
Absolutely amazing video, once agin.
Thx, mate. It’s about to rain for the next couple days
Hey Ralph I bought the pilot metropolitan you recommended and I’m really liking it. Thanks for your recommendation.
Would suggest Arcteryx Veilance or UBR. High end technical garments with a relatively elegant cut.
I bought a pair of fur converse and I bought spray for them because they are suede
I'd love a video with thoughts on head wear for cold weather.
Any ideas on (re-)proofing trench coats? Aquascutum recommends to bring them to a dry cleaner. Though, I wouldn't trust dry cleaners as much as myself.
Love your themes. Can you tell me please, what the protection you use for suede shoes for rain? Thank you very very much
I liferally ordered my trench coat today
Could you imagine skiing in a trenchcoat that would be some total commitment haha

On umbrellas, they become impractical in very windy climates. They're rare where I live (Nova Scotia) because of how quickly they will be damaged by wind.
You can buy storm umbrellas, that have overlapping vents to mitigate wind.
Galoshes by the brand Tingly are the best bang for your buck.
Excellent. Thank you.
How other people see rain: *cold and uncomfortable*
How I see rain: *3 piece suit day!*
I see it as a big win for my trench coat whilst living in a tropical country lol
I need to talk of suspenders please. Thanks for your videos.
I get by with a jumper or a tracķ jacket n sneackers but this gear looks pretty good I must say
Haha that rubberized trenchcoat looks like legit sex dungeon equipment or goth-clothing :D love all those quirky items you come up with
Rubberised cotton macs just look like normal macs but they don't breathe as well, the supplied image was just for humour.
Damn, I need that umbrella with the seat thing.
Do you have a video on different clothing materials, and how to know bad and good quality?
The items shown for rain I believe all are for pedestrians and not for everyday car user except the hunting boots and jackets right??
Does anybody else see that painting moving in the background
Yoo... wtf now I cant unotice it
The rubberized Trenchcoat look really weird :D Great Video!
