Older men and Clothes For certain, a older man should make sure his shoes are shined if he wears the type that takes a good shine. When tennis shoes get old and worn looking, 'GET RID OF THEM".... nothing worst than a older man in some overly worn tennis shoes or some that the design and color does not suit well with his age and attire. I have some soft silver nikes that are not glossy, and they work very well and especially well with faded jeans, black pants and other things. I've bought the same pair two different times and will buy a third pair soon. I don't care for the youth faddish tennis shoes. Dress Well-Regardless : choose the clothing that gives a looks that fits the stability of yourself, but the openness of your mind, but don't dress like you are trying to recapture your 20's. You can wear any color you want, but choose how its the design cut is. If you wear hard sole shoes, buy you a good par, don't go get the $29.95 shoes with the plastic sole, but you don't have to go and spend $300 for them either, a good $100 - 175.00 shoes will do you well, make sure they have leather soles and then go have a sole protector added. Maybe you can by two pair if your finances permit, Stacy Adams makes a good shoes as well as Johnson & Murphy. the shoes will wear well, shine well and they are durable. If you wear them daily, it is advisable to get two pair, so you can alternate and be sure to put a shoe tree in it after wearing to help retain its form. I don't like some shirts that are not cut right, such as "short shirts", they won't stay in your pants as you move about, so try and get the long cut, as it stays in the pants much better. It really doesn't matter much if its slim fit or a regular, because you want to move freely. Choose carefully, the texture and composition of the material of the pants you buy, If possible and affordable, be sure it has a half lining down the front. choosing a tie.. watch the material, some polyester will not lay properly and the knot will be too bulky, if possible get silk ties. when you choose something other than silk, think of the weight feel of the tie, because bulky tie can make for awkward feelings. I don't say spend a fortune for shirts, because I won't pay $85 for a shirt. I stay under the $40 unless its something I really like, and you can generally find those in the sale section, after they mark down the prices on the $85 dollar shirts. Then you can have it for up to $40, some brands might not go below $65, but you got to think of where you will be wearing it, and the high frequency it must be laundered, so its not worth it to pay too much initially. Socks can be found reasonable - when they get a worn look, give them to Goodwill or something. As for your Wallet.. when it starts looking out of shape, CHANGE IT, nothing like a well dressed man with a sloppy wallet. Just thoughts .. |

It's important in the sense of neat managed presentation. I like jeans and tee shirts, for general kick around stuff. I'm not much into advertising other peoples stuff on the front of a Tee shirt, unless its small and well done, and some with print is ok... but not giant slogans for me. I don't like the gaudy stuff. I think its good for men to take as best care of his feet as possible, sometimes people wear sandals frequently, but they should take then even better care of his feet. I'm not talking about strutting around like a Peacock... but simply dressed nearly and suitable for daily presentation.
