7 Things That A Gentleman Should Not Wear by sleekjamz(m): 7:03am On Nov 10, 2017
It doesn’t matter how confident you are as a gentleman when it comes to outfit ideas, there are some pieces of clothes that a man should not put on his body.



In today’s topic reader I will be discussing on ‘7 things that a gentleman should not wear’


1. Too much fragrance as a gentleman.

OK guys am putting this on number one spot on my list, cause I know many guys are fond of the habit of putting on too much fragrance.
Gentlemen always remember you wanna be discovered, you don’t wanna walk into a room or a classroom or probably into an office and announce yourself.

Seriously unless you want to annoy your crazy colleague at your work place, some people don’t have to smell you all day in the office.

You can start off with one spray and make sure you do yourself a favour and find a fragrance that works for you.


2. Logo embroidered trousers .

I wrote an article on ‘5 Incredible Fashion Ideas Trending For Men’ and I discussed about avoiding large logos on your shirts.

Lets talk about that on trousers, why will a gentleman put on trousers that is embroidered with logos, like I said unless they are paying you why the hell will you advertising a logo on your trousers like a billboard.


3. Skinny jeans.

I will tell you directly please avoid skinny jeans if you are not skinny.

I know a lot of guys want to blend with the latest trending fashion wears and they end up putting on skinny jeans, yes it might be cool on your friend doesn’t mean it will be OK on you.

So in general I do not like to see big men trying to squeeze themselves inside these skinny and trying to show the world everything about them.


4. Studded belts.

Seriously, I explain in my previous post about avoid belts with huge logo because it doesn’t look cool on a gentleman another thing to avoid on belt are studs on belt, like seriously they don’t look cool.

Anytime I see men with studs all over their belts they look awkward.

Guys you wanna avoid studded belt when you pass the age of ten.


5. Gentlemen Wearing dress shirt untucked.

Gentlemen please if it’s a dress shirt it is made to be tuck in, always tuck in a dress shirt.

Now a casual shirt you can wear untucked because they are often made to, but make sure you get it adjusted to be the right fit, it should not be way down to cover your buttocks that will be way too long, it should be 2-3 inches long and when you raise your hands it should cover your mid section that’s gonna be the good line for the shirt, but if it’s a dress shirt it’s always tucked in.


6. Pajama pants in public.

You really need to avoid putting on Pajama pants in public and think it’s fashion, well unless your house is on fire and you have to run out of your house with your pajamas, OK that’s alright.
But I see you on the street or in a shopping store with pajamas you really need to change you style.


7. Socks with sandals.

well it always amaze me that I keep saying it times with out number that socks were not made for sandals, if you want to wear your sandals it’s preferable you rock them with no socks.
Thats it for today guys, hope you enjoy my discussion on ‘7 things a gentleman should not wear’.

So guys still wear socks in sandlas. Lmao
Nice list Op, I particularly dislike the 1st point; Too much fragrance on a guy is so kinda off to me.
Skinny jeans; I like them modearately skinny, Baggy jeans are a no-no
Tucking in is cool bt I do it only on Official grounds and maybe to Church, doing it on a normal day is something I find hard
