Speaking of keeping white sneakers clean, I find that Mr Clean Magic Erasers are, well, magic. Get them wet, squeeze out all the excess and start erasing the smudges. They work for me.
Love your videos. Yeah, I’m far behind and it’s already summer but at least I am not afraid of colds and I have quite a few Ralph Lauren and Lacoste polos in a variety of colors. I generally am afraid of patterns and florals unless you model them. Thanks for all that you do.
John, you are the epitome of class! While I am a woman, I enjoy your videos immensely. I wish more men took better pride in their appearance. I'd also like to compliment you on your hair! It always looks amazing!
J Butler makes a nice shoe, but they only have 2 shoes in size 15, which I wear, I'm still waiting them to restock the suede ones in my size, meanwhile I'm designing my own suede and sneakers at Hockerty a great company
For an American that may be a little confusing. Further south you go, the colder it gets. A southern exposure is the dimmest. Johannesburg is warmer than Capetown in July. All opposite of the United States. Hopefully I can visit after I retire.
😄 UK here. Grey, drizzle, cold today (contrary to popular opinion it ISN'T actually like that all the year). I think I'll stick to winter garb for another month or so.
You give great fashion advice. Keep up the great work, John! But also keep in mind, those of us w olive skin have to rely on navy blue (dark color) the entire year, even in the warmer months here on Hilton Head.
Great video John. I’m looking forward to bringing back my spring wardrobe. Thanks for these tips, the awesome background music, and I’ll be on the lookout for a possible wardrobe critique via your Instagram stories!
John I have a silly question for you from Texas. Do you have a video on undershirts? Are you mostly a proponent of no undershirts with these polo type shirts for stylistic reasons? Tanks etc... Just wondering and genuinely interested. Thanks again!
Great and informative video. I know I'm the odd ball, but I hate spring because that means summer is around the corner. I love winter. Favorite time of the year
@@andrewtremblay262 yes we do! We'll ship anywhere fedex and dhl will ship (except ostrich, alligator, and capybara shoes due to import/export restrictions)
I love spring! Goodbye to down jackets, hats, scarves, gloves (I do like winter hats and scarves though!). Hello to Trilby hats, lighter jackets, lighter jumpers, rugby shirts! Winter is a bad time for men's fashion. Great video John!
I live where it's triple digits in the summer so I look forward to the fall winter to dress better. In the summer its usually shorts or linen pants and a polo or button down shirt.
Hope that this helps some. Decades of cycling, lifting, martial arts - and JUST PLAIN AGING/genetics, takes/makes feet. For over 15 years I've had a good experience with the Hitchcock Shoe CO, from Massachusetts. Not compensated/affiliated in any way - just hope to help 40+ gentlemen with wide/special footwear needs.
Hi John, just discovered your channel and do appreciate all that you do for us older men! Great variety of topics covered in a such professional manner. Thank you
Love the channel! With that said, I’m 47, and I simply can’t imagine a day where I’d not feel like an absolute tool wearing loafers! 😂 No disrespect to any who does as I appreciate everyone has their own style, but for me personally I just can’t can’t see it happening.
LEGEND Yay! Chapters! Thanks, John. I know it’s extra work in your already busy schedule. Great video! Will you be doing a spring video where we can submit photos for critique? #Legend
Good info! Why can I not find shirts that stay tucked in anymore? I’m not heavy and I like a more fitted shirt but none of them are long enough to stay tucked in. I prefer the tucked in look for work.
Maybe this is the year I dare to get a pair of white pants! I’ve always liked how it looks on people but never been bold enough to actually try on a pair…
Really! It works? Do you use white shoe polish as well. White shoe polish never looks good on dirty white sneakers. Thanks I have an old pair of Boks. I may try that out.
Taking a shot here. I have been looking off and on for a suede leather jacket that looks good on a big guy. Whenever I think I find one, it turns out that it is made of genuine leather with a polyester lining. Surely there is a brand out there that is less than $1000, but still good quality. I feel that paying for quality, not necessarily brand name, pays off in the long run. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Those loafers are gorgeous! I must admit, I find it hard to let go of my jewel tones. Light neutrals and most pastels aren't really my vibe, but I do like those textured polos! As usual, Legend! ( Are you over the rain already, lol! Gotta admit though, that snow was pretty magical...) ❄🌧🤩
FYI Just bought some loafers at Jay Butler after watching this and the coupon code in the description wasn’t accepted. I found another online for the same pct that did work so all good but thought you should know. I use those 400Over coupons all the time so usually they work great and I appreciate you arranging them for us
I see this all the time, with John here, with Antonio at RMRS, Aaron at Alpha M ........ there's a whole other hemisphere of the planet that is going into Autum/Winter; ever thought of catering to that part of your audience?
Totally understand and I appreciate your comment. But as you probably already know, I make style videos for every season. Just because our seasons don’t align, that doesn’t mean that I don’t still cover the subject.
Legend vid John... So, embarrassed to admit that I just learned that Chinos are not the same as Dockers 🤪 Now I'm on the prowl for better pants. I blame my misinformation on coming to age in the ‘80s as an engineer when our lady friends call wisely called Dockers the Granimals for engineers, and they were right
There’s not much useable advice out there for us over 70 lads who aren’t ready to give it up quite yet but your vids are great. I’m still not wearing white sneaks 🙄
How long is John been doing this background music? I've never noticed it in prior videos, and I can't say that I like it in this one. I don't mind background music, but this particular selection just sounds... I don't know, older than middle aged. It seems like it'd be more appropriate for a fashion channel for adults in their 60s or '70s.
Is that your perception, or do people actually tell you that? No offense, but if you're 5ft 3 and you have a size 13 shoe, yeah you may look silly. As silly as being 6ft4 with a size five shoe. Ironically the guy looking into the mirror is really critical, the guy in the mirror looks fine. If that is true, you look like a clown wearing white sneakers, give thanks to the Lord above, that there are a multitude of other colors.
a lot of our customers dont wear any socks (including no shows) with their JBs. the lining leather we use is pliable and soft wearing. Does a great job of absorbing sweat and oils from feet to reduce blistering and increase comfort
Still very very late winter here in Detroit, but I agree we need to think positively.
Absolutely!
It's also still winter here in London

Yep! If white is a little too much, look for something off-white.
Good stuff John, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tossed out the 12 year old chinos for new ones from Faherty.. you should try to get them to sponsor! 😊
Thanks Daniel!
Oh yeah for white sneakers .. I use a white Mr clean eraser .
Great tip!
Really! It works? Do you use white shoe polish as well. White shoe polish never looks good on dirty white sneakers. Thanks I have an old pair of Boks. I may try that out.
@@MrWelfarehater use it on the out soul .. wipe the leather after with a soft cloth . Use polish sparingly
Excellent suggestions...
Thank you!
What are your brand recommendations for sneakers, John?
It depends I suppose. I like Thursdays, ace marks, and greats.
Great video John!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Finally.. out of the winter!
I am with you on that! Freezing cold, big down jackets, hats and so on! Hello spring, and summer is not too far behind!
Taking a shot here. I have been looking off and on for a suede leather jacket that looks good on a big guy. Whenever I think I find one, it turns out that it is made of genuine leather with a polyester lining. Surely there is a brand out there that is less than $1000, but still good quality.

Helpful info as always. Thanks.
You bet! Thanks for watching!
So what are some good quality brands of chino pants to look for?
Check out Nordstrom, Bonobos, Express & Banana Republic.
Those loafers are gorgeous! I must admit, I find it hard to let go of my jewel tones. Light neutrals and most pastels aren't really my vibe, but I do like those textured polos! As usual, Legend! ( Are you over the rain already, lol! Gotta admit though, that snow was pretty magical...) ❄🌧🤩
Yes, I’m waiting for the warm weather to finally break out. All this rain reminds me of Seattle.
How about a link to the green camp shirt or alittle more info. thanks for another great video at about 5:07

Can I wear slim cargo and a hoodie?
Hey John. Can you link those white sneakers with the gum sole?
Hey, go check out Thursday sneakers. You’ll see them there.
John, you do a great job and have been a huge blessing in guiding my clothing choices. Do you still do the zoom consultations??
Great content as always, Jon.
IMO the background music is distracting and unnecessary. Thank you.
Noted!
John, for those of us with a “dad bod”, is it still o.k. to wear darker colors on top during the spring/summer?
Absolutely!
How can I get a hold of that white sneaker with the gum sole, fellas?
Thursday Boot Co.

Chino used to be only a color. Now, it seems to be a type of pants. Please elaborate
I think you mean Khaki. Chinos are a type, khaki is a color.

Just trying something new. Thanks for the feedback.
What is the brand of those white sneakers?
Thursday Boots!
For the sneakers, I am thinking you are saying a firm 'no' to Nike Air Force 1s, you know, what teens and 20 year olds wear!
Yeah, not really my particular style, but if you like it, rock it!
Being a bigger dude my wardrobe is winter all year round.
I wish I could pull off the white sneaker but with a size 13 shoe I look like I am wearing clown shoes.
Is that your perception, or do people actually tell you that? No offense, but if you're 5ft 3 and you have a size 13 shoe, yeah you may look silly. As silly as being 6ft4 with a size five shoe.

Loafers, yes. But damn it I need some no-show socks that won't get swallowed as soon as I take a step or two. HELP!
a lot of our customers dont wear any socks (including no shows) with their JBs. the lining leather we use is pliable and soft wearing. Does a great job of absorbing sweat and oils from feet to reduce blistering and increase comfort
I swear by Stance no-show socks. Check them out on Amazon, and buy the smaller size so they fit snug.
Great Tips for my husband! He is physically fit but needs help dressing appropriately.
