Although it\u2019s enjoyable to strive for impeccable style, even gentlemen occasionally stumble. This led me to create an article, sparked by a Rampley & Co. video (you can see it here<\/a>), highlighting 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discover the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

35 mistakes men wearing suits make: Generalities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1. Following trends and having no style.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It is crucial to always stay true to your personal style and avoid being swayed by fleeting fashion trends. Regrettably, many trends tend to contradict the timeless elegance that complements gentlemen\u2019s attire, so aim for a balanced fit when choosing pants, neither too baggy nor overly snug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Putting your suit jacket on the wrong hanger<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When you work, it can happen that you spend a lot of time sitting in a chair, which can damage your suit jacket. Consider using a large clothes hanger instead, designed for coats, rather than the typical smaller variety. Do the same at home, always hang your jacket on a big hanger. Otherwise, the shoulders will buckle and the fit will come undone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Violating the top \u2153, bottom \u2154 rule.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

An increasing number of individuals disregard this simple guideline, resulting in bizarre physique ratios, such as disproportionately short legs on a tall torso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Wear a shorter coat than your suit jacket.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n
\n
\"35

As the temperature drops, it\u2019s natural to reach for a coat to wear over your suit. However, it\u2019s crucial not to let it go past your waistline, as this is considered a fashion faux pas. To find a trench coat that complements your style, check out our guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Wearing a suit that’s too tight<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

According to Jean-Michel Bonin of Clusier<\/a>, a suit that is too tight will wear out faster due to increased strain on the seams caused by the garment\u2019s movements and friction. To avoid this issue, opt for slightly roomier clothing, but not so loose that they resemble parachutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Acquiring a suit of inferior quality at a low price<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Buying an inferior-quality suit is the worst. Not only does it deteriorate rapidly, but also requires immediate replacement. Moreover, a low-quality suit won\u2019t maintain its shape, so investing in a high-quality one is a wise long-term decision, especially if you opt for classic styles and colours. Fortunately, with a Gentologie membership, you receive a discount of $300 on purchases exceeding $1,000 from Clusier<\/a>. Take advantage. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

35 mistakes men wearing suits make: The Suit Jacket<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

7. Wear your suit jacket with jeans<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A jacket and jeans can look beautiful, even elegant. However, you should avoid wearing a suit jacket, opting instead for a sports jacket, also known as a blazer, which pairs well with uncoordinated pants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Jacket sleeves too long or too short<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n
\n
\"35
Jacket sleeves should be neither too long nor too short<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

When purchasing a suit (or a blazer), it\u2019s crucial to bring along a few shirts for the fitting. This way, the tailor can adjust the sleeves perfectly. You don\u2019t want them to be either too long or too short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. A coat that doesn\u2019t fit well around the shoulders.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The most important part of a jacket is the shoulders. This is what will give your suit its shape. You can increase or decrease in size on the scale, but the shoulders and build often stay the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Keep the brand logo label on your suit jacket wrist.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some individuals wear the brand logo on their suit jacket, primarily for identification purposes by sales staff and as a means of transportation. Discard the logo, whether it\u2019s a Herm\u00e8s, a Canali, or a Tom Ford, as soon as possible to stay away of the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Fasten the bottom button of the jacket.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"35
The lowest button on the ensemble should never be fastened.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The art of buttoning up may appear intricate, but if there\u2019s just one rule to keep in mind, it\u2019s to always leave the bottom button unfastened. You will find it easier to breathe and walk with grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12 – Keep your jacket buttoned up when seated.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"35
When you\u2019re seated, unbutton your jacket to make yourself comfortable.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

In terms of attire, it\u2019s crucial to remember that upon sitting, one must unbutton their suit jacket. Failing to do so can result in an awkward stance, with raised shoulders, noticeable seams, or even a gaping chest. Unfortunately, this valuable lesson may not always be conveyed during the initial purchase, but rather through experience. Remember to fasten the top button once standing and ovoid this one of 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13. Don\u2019t send your suit jacket to the dry cleaners.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not recommended to wash your coat at home with a washing machine. This is a serious mistake that can cause the seams to come undone. Your jacket will also lose its shape. Choose dry cleaning instead.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14. Putting heavy things in the outside pockets<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contents of your pockets can distort your jacket. This includes a large cell phone and a bulky wallet with too many cards. Instead, consider using a minimalist wallet and keeping it, along with your mobile device, in the interior pockets of your garment, rather than in the outer pockets or, even worse, in your trousers.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15. Never take apart the seams of your pockets.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, the pockets on a suit jacket\u2019s lining may be stitched closed. It\u2019s crucial to unpick them before your initial wear, or kindly request your tailor to do so. Ensure that they can be easily detached, as they can come in handy for storing small items.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. Avoid fastening the pockets of your trousers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To follow the rule of hanging up your coat in the office, make sure that any time you need to do so, your pockets are closed and fastened.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17. Avoid a crease on your pants\u2019 front.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"35

For a classic look, you should iron your pants properly, respecting the creases. However, this practice is only acceptable for linen trousers, as natural wrinkling is inherent in this fabric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shirt<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n

18 – Wearing a shirt with overly many designs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s perfectly fine to own patterned shirts, as they can serve a purpose at times. However, pairing them with a Prince of Wales jacket and a necktie results in an overwhelming visual experience. Keep the use of patterns minimal, perhaps wearing one underneath a sweater. Additionally, avoid pairing a tuxedo shirt with a suit other than a tuxedo.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19 – Wearing a shirt with soiled cuffs and neckline<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perspiration or intense heat often results in the formation of rings on the sleeves and collar, often going unnoticed. Pay close attention during your next laundry cycle, taking special care to treat any delicate areas with a stain remover, such as Shout. Additionally, keep an eye out for these telltale signs on the inner folds of button-downs, particularly those adorned with cufflinks. This is arguably the most critical fashion faux pas among the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20. Wear a shirt darker than the jacket.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wearing a shirt that is darker than your jacket is generally not a wise choice. The reason is straightforward: it draws attention to the shirt rather than the suit. Instead, opt for a lighter hue. If you\u2019re committed to colour, choose a white one with stripes in the same shades as your suit.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tie<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n

21. Tying a tie with a knot that is overly big for your neck<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since we all have unique body types, it\u2019s important to find a tie knot that complements your figure. An oversized knot on a slender neck can be unflattering, drawing attention away from your ensemble\u2019s elegance.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

22. Wear a lighter-coloured tie than your shirt.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, just as with the shirt, the tie should complement, not overpower. Go for a classic tie that compliments your ensemble. There is no lack of options in this department. Select a high-quality Italian-made tie that is not overly slim. A narrow tie can be inconvenient with a tie clip and may lead to one of the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

23. Have a matching handkerchief and tie.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this idea initially appears promising, it ultimately falls short. The visual similarity is too pronounced, causing a distraction and potentially leading to a mismatch in colour between the tie and shirt, as well as the pocket square and suit.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

24. Wearing a tie that\u2019s too long.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"35
The tie is just the right length, neither too long nor too short.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Mastering the art of tying a tie of the right length is crucial. It seems as if ties are tailored for people of a specific stature. It\u2019s crucial that the tie doesn\u2019t hang below the pants and is concealed beneath the jacket, if possible. Don\u2019t forget the tie clip to keep the tie in place.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessories<\/h3>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

25. Wear a smartwatch with a suit.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n

When wearing a jacket, it is best to keep it simple and classic. Consider a timeless piece like Cartier\u2019s Tank<\/a> or a less sporty alternative. Your Apple Watch, even if it is the Herm\u00e8s edition, is not the most elegant choice and will be one of the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

26. Wearing several imposing accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have all witnessed those ostentatious cufflinks, belts, jacket studs, and golden watches adorned with a renowned designer\u2019s emblem. Let\u2019s be clear: this is no understated elegance. However, we don\u2019t subscribe to the idea of understated luxury. It\u2019s not professional and it certainly isn\u2019t gentlemanly.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

27. Carrying a backpack or shoulder bag while wearing a suit jacket<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"35
Carry your briefcase with the handles, not the straps, so that it doesn\u2019t weigh down on your jacket\u2019s shoulder.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I must admit, this one can be challenging. However, there is a reason it is here: the shoulder straps of your backpack can exert pressure on the shoulders of your suit jacket, potentially causing long-term deformation. It is generally preferable to carry it by hand, as it takes up less space on public transport and reduces the risk of your backpack\u2019s contents being stolen.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

28. You\u2019re wearing a jacket with a bulging wallet in the pocket.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many men carry large wallets full of unnecessary cards and bulging pockets. A smaller one will make you feel more comfortable and light. This is an accessory that helps you avoid 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

29. Expose your calves while seated.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No one wants to see your calf, especially when it pokes out of your pants (you\u2019re not wearing shorts). Consider wearing long stockings, such as those from the Italian brand Marcoliani.<\/p>\n\n\n

[spacer height=\u201c20px\u201d]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

30 – Avoid coordinating your stockings with your shoes and pants.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not uncommon to see colourful socks on some people, but it\u2019s essential to remember that a true gentleman, like James Bond, would never be caught wearing socks with bold or unusual patterns, even in his impeccably tailored suits. Furthermore, avoid wearing white socks, as they can be misleading, making you appear as if you\u2019re about to play tennis.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Shoes<\/h3>\n\n\n

31. Pair sneakers with a suit.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Despite the popularity of casual attire, it\u2019s crucial to remember that sneakers or athletic shoes do not belong with a suit, no matter how expensive. Instead, opt for timeless footwear, such as Crockett & Jones<\/a>, Carmina<\/a> (available at Clusier), or Berluti<\/a>. An essential to avoid repeating the 35 mistakes men wearing suits make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

32. Wearing dirty, unpolished shoes<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Proper maintenance is key to keeping your shoes looking their best. Take the time to care for them with high-quality products, such as those from the French Saphir line. Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity of your shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

33. Wear shoes that are lighter than your pants.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s an unspoken rule that your footwear, whether it\u2019s brown, black, or burgundy, should be darker than your trousers, and if they\u2019re black, they should match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

34. Wear dark shoes with white soles<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The \u201crelaxed\u201d shoe trend that\u2019s been around for a decade or more is just awful. It lacks the refinement and polish that is necessary for any professional or formal setting. Consider investing in high-quality footwear that is not only fashionable but also easy to maintain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

35. Avoid using a shoe tree<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This wooden accessory, which fits inside your shoes when you\u2019re not wearing them, is essential to maintain their shape and remove moisture from your feet. You can see it in the photo above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
