Lil’ cross-post from Lemmy.ca.

With women’s fashion, it’s an easy one with pockets and for some probably less sheer/thin or tight-fitting clothing depending on their preferences, but for men…?

What would you like to see done differently in men’s fashion?

    Fuck you neckties. And just suits in general too.

    Oh yeah, and why is it that sneakers aren’t an acceptable shoe in certain situations? I mean sure, if they are some gaudy fluorescent green shoes, they would look out of place in most work environments. But why is a monochromatic black or brown sneaker any different than a dress shoe?

      People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.

        In the western US dress sneakers are what office workers wear. They’re a lot more comfortable and the styles are great. Regular dress shoes make you look stuffy and no one out here likes that.

        I would very much like that. Also high heels for everyone. 1-3 inch heels are actually pretty good for your posture and give your ankles a nice steady workout, although if you overdo it and wear them daily for 4 years you start to fuck up your Achilles tendon. And they give you a nice swag strut too

    Make the person designing outfits in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure in charge of all men’s fashion in real life.

    I’m not a dude, but I think guys should embrace the purse( or manbag if you prefer). I love carrying all my shit with me.

        My guy, have you tried carrying a power bank in the leg pocket of your cargos?! It is far less comfortable than having it in a cross body bag or fanny pack

          Power bank as in a portable battery for charging your phone? If so yes, the only problem is that if I dont have a belt it will start pulling my pants down. If you mean something larger than a 7 inch x 3 inch black brick then I would probably just not keep it on my person.

    Suits that actually fit. Does nobody know anymore how a man in a suit is supposed to look? They all think they’re so fashionable, instead they look like they walked with a paper suit through a steam bath. Awful.

    I’d have men wear more turtlenecks, and tighter jeans. Doesn’t need to be TIGHT, just not the insanely baggy styles that have been around for the past 20 years. And turtlenecks… they have the effect of making a guy’s shoulders look broader. People underestimate the effect of shoulders on appearance as a whole, in both men and women. If you’re a guy with rounded or somewhat narrower shoulders, turtlenecks are your best friend. You can also wear slightly wide-cut t-shirts, or sweaters that have a looser fit at the top or with a logo/detail right underneath where your neck ends.

    More variety for formal wear. I hate that women get to express themselves more elaborately and I get to pick what color my tie is.

  • lol I was going to suggest getting rid of what the dude before me said everyone should wear. Most dudes just look the same in their drab, monochrome monkey suits. I don’t feel like men have fashion. Just utilitarian clothing that has no personality.

    In the same vein as cloaks, bring back robes. Hell yes I want people to think I’m a wizard.

        Yeah, I wear joggers everyday around the house, even in summer. But there’s not a long of tight pants for men besides joggers. Which is a pity, because I had no idea how comfortable tight, stretchable pants and shirts were until my wife started buying them for me. There’s just something about them that feels good.

        Plus they show my ass really well, which means my wife is constantly swatting it as I go by.

      It gets worse for swimwear. Jammers are seen as something only competitive swimmers wear, while speedos are stereotyped as something only gay men wear.
