“You cannot climb the ladder of success dressed in the costume of failure.” —Zig Ziglar.

#MotivationalMondays

What a commendable thought by this American author! Through this quote, he means that success is attainable only with a good attitude, mindset, behavior, and most importantly, attire. If you wear the costume of failure—be it the wrong mindset, negativity, lack of confidence, or poor attire—your presentability and capability will be doubted or questioned. Consequently, you will not be able to climb more on the ladder of success.

Slacks vs Jeans: Which is the Better Option for Everyday Wear?

Men wear pants throughout the day. So, which pants should they wear every day? Slacks or jeans? Well, they ought to be selected with utmost care, a comfort level check, and a lot of factors into consideration. 

What are slacks and jeans?

Slacks are a particular type of trousers that generally feature a relaxed or looser fit, structure, or silhouette than dress pants. On the other hand, jeans are a particular type of denim trousers in particular. However, let’s understand both the pant types with respect to:

  • Fabric type
  • Style and fit
  • Suitable occasion
  • Color choices  

Based on the fabric type

Slacks are designed using lightweight fabrics like cotton, linen, cotton-blend, wool, flannel, etc. They are breathable and the texture is soft and smooth. Hence, they do not seem to harm the skin. 

Jeans are made of denim fabric, which is also a type of cotton. Like cotton, they are breathable and help absorb sweat from the skin. Overall, it gives a rugged look and feel. The texture can be soft or hard based on the denim used.   

Based on the style and fit

The different fits in slack pants include slim-fit, tapered, relaxed, straight, etc. And their style depends on the pair. When worn with dress shirts or suits, they fall under the formal style. Alternatively, when worn with sweatshirts or sports jackets, they fall under the casual style.

Jeans too have different fits, like slacks. But they are always considered casual, despite what pairs with them—shirt, tee, sweater, suit, etc. 

Based on the suitable occasion

From the style element, we apparently can understand that slacks work for formal, semi-formal, and smart casual occasions. Whereas the jeans are suitable only for casual occasions. 

Based on color choices

Slacks come in a wide range of colors—blue, white, brown, gray, forest green, tan, beige, graphite, khaki, black, navy, etc. As these are more suited for formal occasions, the majority of colors are either formal or neutral. 

Jeans are predominantly in blue denim. Based on the wash or bleach levels, the indigo hues might vary. Also, they are available in black and gray. In extremely rare cases, some men like other shades of jeans like maroon, yellow, or white.    

Which is better for every day?

Undoubtedly, both these pant types are men’s wardrobe staples. However, it depends on what type of style you follow, the work culture, or your profession. For a man in a white-collar job or a businessman, slacks are considered everyday wear, as they need to meet a lot of professionals and present themselves in formal or semi-formal attire. Yet, these men will also love to wear jeans for informal or casual events, parties, or gatherings—just that they wear slacks more than jeans on a daily basis.  

On the contrary, a blue-collar worker or a man in an unorganized sector prefers jeans for every day, as they needn’t necessarily meet business professionals. So, slacks are occasional or sometimes rare for these types of men. 

ConclusionIt is always recommended to consult a men’s clothing designer or an expert in leading men’s couture—they understand your everyday needs and suggest the right pants for you!

How to choose jackets and coats for autumn?

#TeachingsTuesdays

Be it jackets or coats, this is how you choose for autumn—lightweight or thin for early fall, slightly heavy for mid-fall, and ultra-thick or double layers for late fall (to welcome the winter).

At present, we are transitioning from early to the middle of autumn. Accordingly, we must leave behind lightweight coats and wear heavy layers. Also, it is time to keep heavyweight jackets or double layers ready in the closet.

Why Suede Bomber Jacket is Perfect for Fall Fashion?

Currently, we’re transitioning from mid- to late-fall. This means we have to get ready for the winter in a couple of weeks. So, layering is something that everyone will talk and walk about. On this note, in this short piece of blog, let’s unveil why suede bomber jackets are perfect for fall. 

What is a suede?

It is premium-quality leather sourced from the underskin of animals like lamb, goat, sheep, cow, pigs, deer, calves, etc. They are extremely soft and thin when compared to ordinary leather, which is thick. 

In general, napped suede leather is used to make clothes (jackets) and accessories (purses, wallets, shoes, belts, watches, etc.) Owing to their unique look and feel (texture), most fashion designers consider them one of the finest choices for making unique style statements. 

Characteristics of suede leather

Comparatively, suede leather is thin and delicate, which makes it suitable for draping and molding. This pliable nature, however, varies depending upon the source or the type, viz., pigskin suede, cowhide suede, sheepskin suede, etc. Also, this leather is highly durable and can be used as a substitute for regular clothes or fabrics. Another characteristic that differentiates suede fabrics is that they are greatly insulting, despite the minimal thickness. 

Suede Bomber Jackets 

Suede bomber jackets are made of suede leather on the outside and wool on the inner side of the apparel. When worn with the right balance and proportions, they give a smooth blended look with sophistication and ruggedness. They are napped and are available in different hues—leather brown, tan, forest green, black, emerald, and gray. 

The reasons why men prefer these suede bomber jackets are:

  • They help create versatile looks with one jacket
  • They are long-lasting and worth the money spent
  • They are suitable for layering in the cold season
  • They come in different styles—buttoned, zipped, pullover, etc
  • The looks are natural, timeless, classic, and bold 

Are they perfect for fall fashion?

Well, so far we have seen what suede is, what its characteristics are, and how they are liked in the fashion realm. Now, let’s dive into whether they are perfect for fall fashion. 

To be part of fall fashion:

  • First, the apparel must have natural and earthy shades, which the suede bomber jackets already have. So, yes!
  • Second, the apparel must count as a layer. And as all are aware, these suede jackets are excellent outer layers. Tick!
  • Third, the apparel must provide enough warmth to cope with the fall’s cold weather. Suede jackets are not thicker and heavier than wool or fur jackets. Anyway, it isn’t freezing cold in the fall. So, this is also sorted!         
  • Fourth, the apparel must blend or naturally pair with other elements of the ensemble—undershirts, tees, midlayers, etc. Again, a tick!  
  • Fifth, the apparel must enable a wide range of tapestries. Well, you can do anything on a suede jacket. Done!
  • Sixth, the apparel must work for semi-formal and casual occasions. Yes, suede bomber jackets align! 

What else and what not? There are several more reasons why these animal hide jackets are perfect for fall fashion. And if you’re a man who owns at least one such suede jacket, you know all the answers! 

Conclusion

Suede bomber jackets are a perfect choice for fall fashion and we recommend every man to have one or two styles of them in the wardrobe. Trust us, they will never get outdated. They are timeless!!
