re: Why men stopped dressing well

Majority of guys don't like wearing suits. They are generally impractical.
Everyone is accepting of more comfortable clothing because they want to be comfortable as well

I'm not a fashion guy, just practical. A while back I got tired of buying shoes and jeans that fell apart in a year. Now I wear Crockett & Jones and selvedge jeans. Dressing better doesn't mean dressing fancy. It's just owning fewer, better things that fit.

Because people aren't going to actually watch the video. His arguments are as follows:
1. Society's push against "toxic masculinity" and towards androgyny has pushed people towards wearing clothes that appear unisex as opposed to gender coded.
2. Because of #1, the modern man is afraid of standing out and being memorable as a man, so they are inclined to dress in a way that doesn't draw attention.
3. The fashion industry figured out that men "dressing well" means fewer, higher quality pieces that last for decades, which hurts their bottom line. It's better for those large fashion conglomerates to push "fast fashion" on men in the same way they have women for decades.
That's all bullshite.
It's because of Nirvana.

I dress somewhat nicely on planes.
5 pocket pants, button up shirt or golf shirt with quarter-zip, decent shoes.
My biggest beef on planes is people who wear shorts**. I don't want your raw thighs touching me and I don't want to look at them during the flight.
**this don't not apply to attractive women who want to show their legs.

Homophobia plays a big role. Many things that men used to do, such as, dressing well, keeping journals, and having close male friends have been labeled as "gay" by the tough guys.

I'd say that a well fit button down and slacks looks better than a coat and tie in most business settings anyway. Wearing a jacket when there's no reason to is stupid.

I've said many times on here that it's a staggering indictment of the average man that "dressing well" and "knowing things" is equated not with being a man, but with being a homosexual man.

you sound irrationally insecure. And FOS.

Work from home. Worst thing to ever happen to Americans having pride in themselves and their look
I tend to agree. I have a couple of coworkers who stay in pajamas on days they work from home. I telework 2/days week, and while I don’t put on dress pants and a button down like I do when I go into the office, I always wear a polo and jeans or nice shorts. I also shower and shave every morning before work, regardless of whether it’s a work from home day or an in-office day.

People were dressing poorly long before WFH.

Men didn't stop dressing well, young men never dressed well. I take pride in how I look.
What I see at airports is a trashy abomination.

Dress well and you get more respect. Stand out from the crowd!
This is such a prevalent but shallow take. No one should be giving anyone respect simply from nice clothes. I've met too many well dressed dolts in life for that.

It’s called progress. Had to get rid of that evil white culture.

This varies between cultures. Black males are both disproportionately homophobic and also fashion-concerned opposed to some other groups.

There are seasonal fabrics. You don’t wear the same dress shirt and wool slacks in hot weather that you wear in cooler or cold weather. When it’s hit, you should make sure that you’re wearing poplin, fresco wool, and quarter or unlined jackets and blazers.
I can tell you, here in SWGA, I'm still sweating my arse off in a seasonal wife beater & seasonal gym shorts lmaooo.
Inb4 obesity, I'm 6'1" 185.
Personally it's tough to justify wearing a really nice outfit if I'm having to wash it a lot (wearing it out) from sweat. It's ok to wear coats but the layered polo & sweater look is too hot even inside a building, for the most part.
