Welcome back! In today's video I'm going totalk about 8 secrets of a great summer sport coat.
Many many believe that as long as they feltlightweight suit jackets, they;re ready for summer but that's not true.
Basically we have8 core principles that are important for a summer sport coat.
One, start with the right weight.
Ofcourse,it's important to have a lightweight jacket because lighter fabrics insulate less andfeel cooler.
However, if your fabric is too light, you will have lots of wrinkles, itwill look bad and you have to find the right balance.
Overall, about 8 to 9 ounces or 240- 270 grams is a good start a weight because it will give you a drape.
If you go lighterthan that, you may have issues with wrinkles.
Two, remember weight is not everything, Theweave is even more important.
The weave of a jacket is extremely important because ifit's tightly woven, it will breathe less and in order to feel cool you want to have asmuch air flow as possible.
A great open weave fabric is a so called fresco fabric becausehwen you stand you can really feel every wind and it makes you feel cool.
In order to determineif your fabric is open weave or closed, one good way to do it is actually hold it againstthe light source, like a light bulb and look through it and an open weave fabric is soopen you could almost read a book through it or some text in a magazine versus a tightlywoven fabric is so that you cannot really read anything through it.
Three, Opt for texture.
Unlike suits, sportcoats are meant to be worn in a more casual environment.
In some offices, it's okay towear them but overall you want the garment to be relaxed, distinctly different from thesuit jacket.
Basically, you will be well dressed without being overdressed and texture is areally great way to help you achieve that.
In order to get texture, you want coarse weavesand yarns that are slightly irregular you get some knobs.
For example here, I'm wearinga panama weave jacket which is a wide weave that creates this waffle structure and alternatively,you can have linen where one yarn is thicker than the other so you get something irregularand more three dimensional than a regualr business suit.
Four, go with unlined jackets.
The open weaveof your fabric is not enough because you have a second layer of fabric inside your jacketwhich is the lining.
Linings are typically made from viscose, bemberg cupro or sometimesilk which are all natural fibers or based on cellulose which is a natural fiber andthey're very lightweight however, the weave is so tight that it restricts airflow.
Soeven if you have an open weave fabric but if you combine them with the lining, you willnot get the best benefits of the open fabric because the lining acts as a blocker.
Themain benefit of linings is A- to protect the outer fabric and to make everything slideand fit well.
So generally, lining are great but summer, it's more important that you feelcool.
So basically you want an unlined jacket but there are two versions of unlined jackets: One is completely unlined jackets.
It meansyour jacket literally has no lining whatsoever, not in the sleeves, not in the back, and thisis a rare version of the unlined jacket usually you only find them with bespoke garments.
Italians sometimes like it or spaniards or portuguese because they live in very warmclimates and they really want to maximiz the airflow.
Disadvantage of the completely unlinedjacket is especially in your sleeves, it sometimes catches your shirt material and so it doesn'thang well or drape well.
The second unlined option is called half lined or sometimes calledquarter lined.
What that means is that your sleeves are lined and your shoulders are linedbut your back and oftentimes the inside front are not lined and it really helps to makeyou feel cool but it also lets your sleeves drape easily so it feels comfortable.
Basically,it's the best of both worlds.
Five, select the sewn interlining also knownas canvas.
One of the most important aspects of jackets or sport coats is the interliningwhich is also known as canvas.
Basically, when you have a piece of fabric, it's twodimensional flat, in order to keep it in a certain shape, three dimensional around yourchest, you have to fixate the interlining to the outer fabric and connect them.
Youcan connect them by sewing them together or by gluing them together.
Economically, it'smuch less expensive to glue these layers together but in terms of comfort it's really bad becauseit's a fine fabric, it makes you sweat and the fabric doesn't breathe as well.
On theother hand, a sewn canvas really feels more comfortable, generally softer and it allowsyou to feel more the air and it's also known as the breathing garment.
Basically, you'llhave three levels of interlinings.
You have full canvas, half canvas and you have fuse.
Generally, only top quality garments have full canvas because it's the most expensiveway to do it and if you go to a tailor or to a high end made to measure company or rentto wear company, that;s what you really get, a full canvas jacket or sport coat.
The nextstep down would be the half canvas jacket, that means that the top oart of your sportcoat is sewn with a canvas versus the bottom part is glued.
The only reason to do thatis to save a cost without sacrificing some of the look on top of the garment where it'smore important than the bottom.
Very inexpensive sport coats and usually the ones that aremost comfortable are the ones woth fused interlining.
For summer, you definitely want to avoid itat all cost cos it's a guarantee that you overheat and sweat a lot.
That being said,not all canvasses are alike, you can have a full sewn interlining canvass that is muchstiffer or softer and ideally for summer jacket, you want as little interlining as possibleand you want it to be as soft as possible so it's really comfortable and you don't reallyfeel much.
Traditionally, horse hair blended with wool was used but for summer sport coats,it's better to go with like cotton wool because horse hair is rather stiff and it's not idealinterlining of canvas that you want for a summer sport coat.
Six, go with a bold pattern.
When you havean open weave fabric, what happens is you can see through one way but also the otherway and you don't want people to see what you're wearing on the inside or if you havea pen in your pocket.
So ideally, a bold pattern a- makes sure you look very differnt frombusiness men but also it helps to make your garment not see through.
For example, thispattern is really great but you can also try others, windowpanes, checks, seersucker stripes,madras pattern, all of these things are great for summer sport coats.
What you definitelywant to avoid is things like pinstripes or chalkstripes, they're typically associatedwith business suits because sport coats are not just a suit jacket on its own, they'reindistinctly different jacket.
seven, embrace strong colors.
Now, when youdon't want to wear a pattern or you don't have one or it doesn't suit you well, that'sokay.
You can also go with stronger typical summer colors.
What I mean by that i avoidthe typical black, grey, charcoal, blues and navys and instead go for something like lightblue or nice green and that way you really create a different, distinct, unique look.
What's also important is you never want solids, you also want slightly mottled colors.
Basically,you can be as creative as you want, maybe red or orange or something turquoise.
ALlthese colors can work and it depends on how comfortable you are and how strong they are.
When in doubt, I recommend go for something that is always a little lighter and interwovenwith white yarns like this one here because that way it softens the look even if you havea stonger, bolder color.
Eight, choose a single breasted jacket andpay attention to details.
Personally, I love double breasted jackets, I think they're reallygreat on me, they look really masculine and they're flattering.
However, when it comesto summer sport coats, single breasted is preferrable because it's simply less fabricthat is layered up in front of you so I'm more comfortable when it's hot outside.
Also,when it comes to details you want to make sure that you either have patch pockets onyour chest, on your side and you can also have details like a center pleat in the backor like shooting pleats, you can have angled pockets, maybe contrasting color or a littlecolored tab.
You definitely want to make sure that you have certain details that look distinctlydifferent from a business suit.
If you just have a regular flat pocket, two button jacketwith a notched lapel that you also wear to your office, you should always try to mixit up when you have a sport coat.
As far as accessories go, in summer sport coats, I preferto wear bow ties when it's hot cos it's just a single layer around my neck and it doesn'tdrape all the way along my body which can oftentime insulate and make you feel warmerthan you have to be.
If you want to wear a tie, I suggest you go with knit ties becausetheyhave a very open weave and they let the air go through.

(bright rock music) - Hello and welcome toThe Business Wilderness.
Today, I have a very specialguest, Mr.
Ted Baker.
How are you? - I'm very well, thankyou for having me today.
- Welcome, welcome, anytime.
You come from a veryinteresting background, and interesting business.
Many people basicallyexperience this daily, monthly.
Many people experienceit once in their life.
Can you tell us a bit aboutwhat problem you have solved for these people? - So.
Well, yeah, my name is Ted Baker.
One of my best friends andI, my co-founder and I, started a company called Qalo.
- Qalo.
- Qalo.
- Qalo.
- Yeah.
- If you don't know what that is, Qualo stands for QualityAthletics Love and Outdoors.
He and I each married ourwives about a month apart, and immediately found a pain point in this newfound, this greatnew thing we call marriage.
And the pain point was,the happiness of our wives with our inability to find a way to want to wear a wedding ring.
- So, there you go, people.
All of you do this, evenin a week, or a month, or in a year.
There you go, you got married,at some point in your life.
- Yeah.
For those of us who have gotten married, at least for me, as a male.
I know, for females, veryaccustomed to wearing rings.
For me, I had never worn a ring, I didn't want to wear a ring.
My partner and I both were, you know, we were beating ourselves on the head.
We worked together at the time, and we were both complaining incessantly about how terrible it was tohave to try to wear a ring.
I tried for about a week,I had just got a new car, I was very excited, I got married, I got a new car, all thesethings were happening.
I'm scratching up my car with my ring.
You know, I'd spent all this money, I wanted to just basically take it off.
So, eventually, of course,my ring found its way to my side table, or whatever, and I just stopped wearing it, so.
I had a very interesting interaction with my wife, one day,she came up and asked me if I was ever going towear my wedding ring, and I looked at herand said, probably not.
Because it didn't really fit my lifestyle.
- It didn't.
- And she may have usedan explicit word with me, and told me that I should figure it out.
And so, I then went back to work, began speaking to my now, you know, business partner about it, and we came up with this idea to solve this problem.
And that's it, you know like-- - Tell us the solution? - It's very simple, it's a Qalo ring.
It's made of.
Well, we have it made ofdifferent materials right now, different polymers, butthis one was made.
This particular one was made of silicone, which is hypoallergenic, it's flexible, it stretches four times its size.
It'll rip at 39 pounds of pressure, so those people who are worried about losing their finger.
It's great for, you know,like occupational hazards.
If you're a firefighter,if you're military, if you're a police officer,if you're a plumber, if you're a woodworker,if you play sports, if you go to the gym, if you Cross Fit, if you 45, if you yoga, you know, if.
Whatever it is you do, this kind of goes with your lifestyle.
So, it's been a great thing for me, solved a problem for me.
I had a void, becausewhen I want to represent that commitment to my wife, I did want to, I just didn't want to have this ring.
And I found myself walking around, and people would ask me if I was married, I'm like, of course I'mmarried, yeah, you know.
If another woman would askme, oh, you're married? You don't have a ring on.
I'd be a little ashamed, like, oh yeah, I don't have a ring on, but I am married, and I love my wife.
And it just, you know,a couple months of that, and we needed to fix the problem.
So, we fixed it for ourselves,and, now, seemingly, we've apparently fixed it for an awful lot of other people, so.
And we're now, here today, in Australia, because we're coming to the market, here.
We recognise that theAustralian market is, even though it's not, youknow, a huge numbers market, we feel like the DNA of the Australian, that commitment aspect,that who you guys are, like, at the base ofyour, you know, person, a lot of you are occupational, a lot of you work with your hands, you know, there's a lot ofdifferent things like that, there's a lot of sport,you know, a lot of sport going on, here.
And we just felt like itwas a really good synergy, for a place for us to go internationally.
And we've opened in Canada.
You know, we're basedin the United States, we opened in Canada,Australia's our next market, and then we're going withthe EU later this year, which we're very excited about.
Basically, bringing ourbrand, and our mission, kind of to, you know, theinternational culture, because it's really about the mission.
I mean, the mission of the company is to inspire and sharethe power of commitment.
You know, it doesn'tmatter if it's your wife, or your kids, or, you know, your job.
Your sport, if you have.
You know, if yourmother, father, you know, are fighting a disease, you know, like, my mom died of colon cancer when I was a child, my sisterbattles lupus, right now.
We have a Lupus ring.
We do a lot of charity,a lot of give-back.
We sit on a lot of boardsfor philanthropic things, something I think is very important when you're starting a business, to start giving back really soon.
So, it's been a realgift, our journey's been a real gift, it's been interesting.
- Amazing.
- Yeah.
- Some touching words.
So, when did the journey start? - You know, the moment we got married.
We each got married in2012, July 8, for me.
It was later that year, about August, about a month later, thatwe kind of recognised that we needed to fix this problem.
My wife had looked at me, she had given me those words.
And then it.
I had done some otherbusiness things in the past.
My co-founder came on, and looked at me, and said, we've gotta do this.
Like, let's start a business.
And at the time, I was doinga couple of other things.
And I was being very successful, you know, I had finally.
I had worked years and years to get to a point of success, andI was doing relatively well, I felt like I was doing well.
And he was like, I'll do it with you, like, we can do this together.
And, like, it was that inspiration of him being like, wecan do this together, I'll do it with you, whichreally turned the corner for me, and made me say, like,okay, I would like.
That sounds like a great idea.
I think having somebodythat you trust and value as a business partner is a huge benefit.
You know, being in business,one of the first things you hear is, watch out for your partner.
- Yeah, exactly.
- And it's amazing howmany warnings I've had, from mentors.
And choosing a partner islike choosing a spouse.
- Yeah.
- If you choose the right one, it's going to be the greatest ride, ever.
And it's just aboutchoosing the right one.
So, I got lucky inchoosing the right wife, and now I've gotten very lucky in choosing the right business partner.
And his name's CaseyHoliday, he's an amazing guy.
Just at the core of hissoul, a great human being.
And I think that's.
I think that's what we need to look for in business partners, in relationships, in all things we do.
If we are looking to the right people, and having the right personalrelationships with them, I think that is a gamechanger, and that's kind of what I've always leaned onfor when I'm doing business, and I'm doing work.
I kind of have a propensityto be overly loyal, sometimes.
But, I think if you're dealingwith the right human being, and the people have the right agenda, then you should be all in,and do everything you can.
'Cause, at the end of the day, there's.
Nothing is perfect.
If somebody is always agreeing with you, there's something wrong.
- Sure.
- You know, you have to have a banter, and you have to be big enough, and be able to put your own ego aside, at times, to get around, and makethe business kind of grow.
And that's one of the things I think is extremely pivotal for many businesses.
People can't get around their own ego, so they wind up trashingwhatever great it is about the business, becausethey can't get around their own ego.
And I think that's oneof the things that.
My wife keeps me in very goodcheck with that, as well.
(laughing) So, she does a lot ofdifferent things for me.
Keeping my ego in check is one thing that she does extremely well, so.
- So, with such a uniqueconcept, I mean.
Coming into the market,and selling the idea of having a ring that's,say, that's made out of a few different.
- Polymers.
- Yeah, what is it?- Polymers.
- Yeah, polymers.
The key point in selling these rings wouldn't haven't beenthe actual ring, itself, it would have been.
Or, this is basically my assumption, from what I've seen, it would have been the message, or themovement behind the ring.
- Yeah-- - Because, let's face it, I mean, you can go down to your local store and just grab a ring.
I call it rubber, here, rubber ring, and put it on.
So what were some of the key factors that really took this concept, this idea, off the ground? - Well, I guess.
First of all, we were never really trying to sell you a ring.
We were trying to sell you a way of life.
We're trying to sell you.
You know, we're sellingyou an emotional value, we're selling you functionality, a representation ofsomething so much bigger than a piece of gold,metal, silver, or rubber.
- Correct.
- This is a representation of who you are.
And, to build that community was, like, the basis of the company really exploding.
Because it needed to be morethan just selling a ring, it needed to be selling a lifestyle.
And that's what we've tried to do, we've tried to, you know.
If you walk by, in the United States, at this point, and I'm very realistic, like, we're still in a growth stage.
We've had three years, where.
I'm not anybody importanton Google, we're like.
I haven't gone.
I have a grind to share with people, I don't have like, somemad dashing success story, it's not like everything is just roses and popping bottles of champagne.
But, you know, the goal wasto sell something bigger.
And when you walk by someonein the United States, if I'm walking in anairport, I see someone else with a ring on, it's a Qalo ring, it tells me somethingabout them, immediately.
And that's what we wanted it to do.
We want this to be arepresentation of who you are on the inside, as a human being, you know, because, in a way, it's the opposite of the way society normally values things.
Normally, society values things as, the more expensive it is,the more meaningful it is.
And I'm trying to go the exact opposite.
I'm saying, wait.
Spend less, and make that show more.
Because if you're wearing a Qalo ring, it says that you're going out of your way, because of an occupational problem, or because of a.
It could be a health reason,because, like, you're allergic to gold metal, or whatever.
What it's saying is that, at all times, you want to represent yourcommitment to your spouse, your family, or to whatever.
And so, it's actuallypeople who really want to represent that commitment even more than a $10,000, you know, wedding ring.
They can spend this,and always have it on.
There's nothing you can't do with this on.
You know, we make 'em special, now, that if you get your hands dirty with gas, or whatever, we cameout with a Q2X material, that facilitates that.
If it's just a comfortability material, you can use the classic.
The goal is to, like, make that show that like, in a way, I love my wife, I represent my wife,I represent my family, I represent my commitment, even greater, and I spent less to do it,but it means even more, because I always want to have it on.
And it's very adversarialto what normal society, you know, like, if I drive a nice car.
It cost more money.
You know, like, I want to saysomething about myself, my.
How much is my suit jacket? Or, you know, my shoes, or whatever it is.
I have 12 year old son,trust me, I know all about.
All about, you know, what itmeans to buy something nice.
And, I want a pair of nice shoes, because people'll think whatever.
And I'm just like, it's notabout how much it costs, son.
- Society's really becomingabout materialistic things.
We can tell, especially ifyou jump on social media, especially the platforms that are really image and video-based, youwill really, really see how materialistic individuals are.
And what Qalo is doingis quite the reverse.
And slowly, slowlychanging that mentality.
- And that's the wholething, we want to change.
You just gave me thetingles, that's awesome.
If I ever get tingles in an interview, normally it's something good happens.
It's literally.
It's going against the grain,and thinking outside the box.
And that's what, youknow, in everything I do, I'm always about.
I look at my leaders, and I say, like, think outside the box.
And people come to me and say, well, that's not how it's done.
I'm like, well, figureout a way to get it done, a different way, that would facilitate.
We're in a very complex world, right now, with e-commerce exploding,brick and mortar dying, there's all of thesethings that are happening around us, and the entirelandscape of business is evolving, we're inthis very crucial time.
And I believe that people need to stop, take a look at things, andnot just go to the norm, but begin to think outside of the box.
I think that's the key for the evolution of things happening, thatwill really drive society.
- Social pressures arereally driving people in quite the other way.
So what you guys are doingis honestly, amazing.
And I'm not just saying thatbecause you're sitting here with me.
There's not many companies out there that represent such, what's the word? Just so I can be fair to you.
That represent such aunique, sentimental value.
Because if you look around, companies in modern day society, work towards what the consumer wants on the surface.
- Right.
- What you guys are doing is,you're telling the consumer, no, this means more to you than what the rest of the gang is telling you.
This is really somethingthat you need to treasure, need to look after, which is basically, that ring there, it's not about the ring.
It's about--- It's about commitment.
- Exactly.
- Yes.
- The family, the wife,the kids, the legacy that you leave behind you.
- Money is only so much.
- Exactly.
Exactly, we hear so many stories of people who are worth millionsand billions of dollars, committing suicide, not happy, miserable.
Yeah, why? Obviously, money is not the solution.
- Money, my wife will tellme on a regular basis, money cannot buy your happiness.
- Exactly, exactly.
- I hear it every day,it's drummed into my head.
We're just, you know, this is a battle, it's a struggle, like,what we're trying to do is not normal right now, it is very much thinking outside the box, and, you know, we're very.
We've been very blessed,we've been very lucky.
I mean, luck, let's behonest, luck has a huge part.
- Hard work, a little bit.
- You have to put in your hard work.
And I always say, I'drather be lucky than smart, because I'm not that smart.
But, you know, I like to surround myself with smart people.
I like to think that whatI value in human beings goes much beyond, youknow, what you pay them, or, you know.
It starts with the culture of the company, it starts with who we are on the inside, you know, the same wayyou, as a human being, what really matters iswho you are on the inside? It matters what's going oninside these four walls, in our building, and what Qalo means, and what we do with ouremployees, how we treat them, how we go.
How we want to representourselves to them, and then how we wantto represent ourselves to the outside world.
And, you know, it's a different time than, quite frankly, when I was really.
Had a real job, per se,when I was growing up, you know, how businessesrun, and what my employees.
Very lucky, my partner is amazing.
One of his goals wasto make our company.
We have very lofty goals.
We wanted to make ourcompany one of the top 100 places to work in thecountry, in the United States.
And, you know, like having goals like that are so much more important than saying, I want to do $100 millionin sales, you know? - That's gonna lead to that.
- Well, that's.
Exactly.
- That's going to lead to that, and that's what many CEOs.
Well, not only CEOs, companies in general, they forget that.
Creating that workplace, that environment, where your employee wants to come to work, and stay there, hedoesn't want to go home, he's happy to be there,because you've created that atmosphere for him.
He's motivated every morning.
He comes there, he's workingfrom somewhere deep inside, not because he has to bethere, to pay the bills.
That's what leads to hundreds of millions, that's what leads to the billion, that's what leads to the soon, and so on, and so on.
- I mean, with this test theory right now, let's hope.
(laughing) Let's hope everythinggoes the way we want.
But, I mean, I will tell you this, that, you know, we.
As far as employees go, Irespect my employees so much, I appreciate them, wheneverI see them, you know, I say I appreciate their hard work.
I'm not even, you know, I'm in the office least of all our employees, probably, because I travel a lot.
I'm doing either licencing deals, or travelling for ambassador meetings, or, you know, giving thistalk, or presentation, or whatever.
So, I'm in the office less than anyone, and it always cracks me up because, I go to the office, or I'll see something, you know, someone will show me something on social media that'shappening in my office.
I'm like, ah, hell, that looks amazing.
How am I not there for that, right now? So, I miss out on those things, a lot.
But, you know, my partnertakes a huge stance on making sure that theculture of the company is sound, and so that's really important.
- Awesome, awesome.
So, tell us a bit about some of your areas that you guys faced,or problems or issues coming to market, like.
Maybe, share that fight withus, so we can, you know? - Well, I mean, we got.
When I say we got lucky, we.
I was very lucky tofind the right partner, have the right thingshappen, but it doesn't matter how lucky you are, it doesn't mean you don't still have headaches.
- You still, in effect, face obstacles.
- Obviously.
I mean, manufacturingwas a huge issue for us.
Trying to.
I.
I tried to get the productmade in the United States.
Because I wanted.
I mean, we're from the US, so I was like, I want it to be made in the US.
We could not find, for months,and months, and months, call after call, meeting after meeting, we couldn't find anybody,you know, at the time, no one ever knew we would grow to, you know--- This size.
- Yeah.
So, nobody wanted to take a chance on you, and we started this companywith all of our own money, we didn't take anyinvestment, everything was.
You know, we worked out of our garage.
You know, like this is as grassroots as you could ever imagine.
And so, we couldn't find anybody else, manufacturing was a huge problem.
I wound up going toAsia for manufacturing, and I know a lot of peoplein the United States say they want everything made in the US, but I would make anargument where innovation actually happens becauseyou find people outside that are willing towork, and take a chance.
That factor of me, me,me, greed, greed, greed, that is very valid in the United States, and people don't want to take a risk.
They only want things that are sure locks, everybody wants something positive.
Nobody wants to take a risk.
So, we found someone to take a risk, and our manufacturing wasn't great at the very beginning,it was a huge issue, it was a huge nightmare.
But we got it done, westarted, we were able to spend a lot of time, afterwe got the product here, fixing the product,making the product right, you know, every product was basically.
Our first couple oforders, our first orders for the first nine months was like, we handpicked every order,put it in a little dime bag-- - Quality control, that is-- - Quality control at its best.
Put it in a little bag that looked like it held drugs, and put in the thing, wrote a personal note,sent everything out.
Like, it was very, verymuch grinding, hands-on.
And, you know, we got through.
We went from one manufacturerto another manufacturer, and then that manufacturer,we outgrew that one, and we went to another manufacturer, and now we have a coupledifferent manufacturers.
But I've actually stayed in Asia.
We were looking at manufacturingin the United States, right now, we're doingsome licencing agreements with some of the militarychannels in the US, they are very.
It's more advantageous ifyou have it made in the US, so we're looking at those things.
But the world is a global market, now, and you know, yes, we go to our facility, we make sure that there'sno child labour laws being broken, and we have.
Actually, have a great relationship with my manufacturer,now, so it's been great.
- Awesome.
Okay, so, just quickly before we go, any tips, words of advice, words of wisdom to all the young people out there who are trying to build businesses? Old, young, they can bewhatever they want to be-- - Yeah, absolutely-- - I'm sure everybody canuse a piece of advice.
- Well, first of all,I'm a big proponent of, you know, starting a businessand trying something new, happens at any age.
It doesn't matter ifyou're 60, if you're 80.
- That's the mostbeautiful thing about it.
- If you're 15.
You can literally, this whole, like.
To use the word entrepreneur,this whole idea behind that is that we are in a society now, where you can literally reinvent yourself, over and over again.
So, when I see somebodywho's 70 years old, and they have an idea, I'm like, why aren't you doing it? - Exactly.
- Like, do it, it's youropportunity, right now, there's no reason.
Ageism should not exist in this.
You know, go.
- It's literally just a number, now.
When it comes to business.
- It's ridiculous.
- You know, like youcan be a genius at 12, or you can be a genius at 80.
- Exactly.
- But words of wisdom are, you know, I guess, figure out who you want to be, figure out what you want to leave behind, and then act accordingly.
Treat people like you want to be treated.
And.
- And be real.
- Yeah, you know? Like, just be up front,just, this is who I am, this is what I believe in.
And just be honest.
More than anything, just be honest.
Do your best, you know? - Honesty's the best policy, I'd say.
- It's crazy.
It's so simple, but ifwe utilise these things, and just like.
You're going to makemistakes, just fix 'em.
When you do something wrong, apologise, and move on.
If the person doesn't accept your apology, and can't get around it, then.
- Time will heal.
- Yeah.
- Time will heal.
- So, I guess that's my word of wisdom.
Just, be honest.
- Where can we find you on social media? - Oh, wow, okay, so.

Hello! I’m glad to find you here! I am theSocial Welfare challenge advisor for Agile Makers®.
I’m happy you stopped by to visit!I’m working on a unique challenge that I think you’ll find interesting.
The challengeis to find everyday materials with no animal products to design and make warm, winter coatsfor the homeless.
Winter months can be tough for those withno homes.
The weather gets really cold, especially at nights.
Even though there are sheltersaround town, they can not provide rooms for everyone.
Homeless includes people with no homes; itincludes people who do not earn enough money to pay for rent and food; it also includespeople who sleep in cars.
I know if there is a way to design and makeaffordable winter coats for the homeless, you are the MAKER for the job!.

Hi, I'm Sam with the Homestead Box , and todaywe're going to talk about leather care.
To get started with today's project, you'regoing to need a soft bristled brush, a small stiff brush, an old sock or an old handkerchief,whatever you have laying around, and some leather care products.
And then I like to have a small kit to keepit all in and you're going to need some water on hand.
So the first thing your going to want to dois take out your boot laces.
This is one of the most important steps becauseto really access where all most of the dirt and grime hangs up you're going to want totake your boot laces out.
Then grab your soft bristled brush and justbrush off any excess dirt you know anything visible that 'll just come off easily.
Make sure to get in these area here.
The next thing, is really important, grabyour stiff bristle brush, and catch all along the laces here.
The stitching, not the laces-- the stitching.
OK.
Now we are going to move on to using someleather care products.
There's a lot of different leather care productsout there.
I chose this brand specifically because theydo not use petroleum based products.
They treat leather care like skin care, andthat is important to me.
So we're going to start with our saddle soap.
I use an old sock where the elastic has gonebad.
I just put it over my hand like a mitt.
Dip it in your water.
Load it with some soap.
And apply it so that your building up a foam,to get all that dirt out of there.
this basically just washes the leather andprovides a little bit of conditioning.
Make sure you get all down in the cracks.
I really like to focus on the toe areas andinside the tongue here because they take a lot of wear and catch a lot of grime.
After this stage, I like to take a little excess water, and just wipe it all down, to take out any excess soap.
Now take the dry part of your sock or rag,and just take off all of that excess water.
Our boot is already looking better.
Now you're going to want to set this in aplace where it can dry.
Now that our boot is dry, we're going to applysome kind of leather salve or oil to treat the leather, re-moisten it and help protectit from water.
We just want to load enough salve or oil toreally coat the boot well.
Really focus on any area that have stitching.
These need a little extra protection.
Don't forget about the inside of the tongue.
Depending on how dry your boot is, will determinehow much leather salve or oil you will need on your boots.
You will notice it starts to take up the salveor oil, and it will start to get a cloudy sheen.
That a good thing.
Once it's done soaking up the oil, we're goingto buff that extra oil away with our soft bristled brush.
That's hard to say.
So you are going to want to take your brush(I like to hold my boots like this, brush in this hand) and move really quickly.
Now if you want to polish your boots, maybethat is another video, but we just want to knock off that cloudy coat.
Now that we've been over boot care, no matterwhat products You choose to use follow the manufacture's instructions, but there's twobasic guidelines I can give you today.
You always want to clean, and then treat your boots.
Cleaning is good.
Treating is good, but you really need to cleanbefore you treat for the best, to get the best performance out of your boots.
Now that we've done boots, don't forget aboutyour belts, sheaths, watch straps, hats, and just any other leather goods you have lyingaround.

>> Hi and welcome or welcome back on my channel my name is Giuliana and I upload new videos every monday and friday so if you haven't yet subscribe As you may have guessed from the title it's time again to talk about my monthly favourites skin care, make up, clothes, accessories, books a little bit of everything, a selection of what I've been loving the most lately.
As I often say the idea behind these videos is not to simply show what I bought lately but to let you know why I loved these products and maybe give you some inspiration for your next shopping session.
That said I think we should get started because as usual I've got plenty of juicy things to share.
My first skin care favourite is a new product that was actually launched in May and it's part of a line that includes other products too I tested the Lotion perlée lissante et rempulpante or in english the smoothing and plumping pearly lotion from the Energie de Vie line by Lancome.
It's a fluid lotion that you can apply basically whenever you want I use it in the morning or in the evening, depending on how I feel like and it.
Cough.
plumps the skin, makes it brighter and more rested that's why it's called energie de vie It's a lovely product it's not miracoulous, if you're super tired don't think that by applying your pearly lotion you'll immediately look awake and 20 years younger but I have to say that lately I've been quite tired and stressed out and my skin has been more dull and applying this lotion made me notice a slight improvement nothing spectacular, but definitely noticeable.
which is not bad at all.
I have to tell you that it's quite pricy though I can't remember the price because I bought it at the beginning of the month and I forgot it.
Anyway I remind you that as usual on my blog you'll find the link to this product and all the other ones I'll mention so that you'll be able to check the Sephora web site and find out the price or get more infos.
The second skincare item I think I already showed it in my London haul and it's a Fresh face scrub it's a really gentle exfoliant, which is important because unlike body scrubs that can be a bit rougher, a face scrub needs to be gentle not to irritate the skin.
This is definitely gentle, it's made of brown sugar, strawberry seeds, vitamin C and more ingredients and it removes the dead cells, purifying and rejuvenating the skin and it smells heavenly, it makes you want to.
yep.
Eat it! There must be some lemon or lime inside too as I can definitely smell it It has a thick consistency, but it's not too rough as I said which makes it lovely to apply, it smells greatly it gently exfoliates and leaves the skin soft and hydrated.
I've always been a bit scared of face scrubs as they may be too aggressive but this one, just like all the other Fresh products I tried, it's amazing I recommend it for sure, so if you're in the U.
S.
or in the U.
K.
if you're planning a trip there I suggest you to try the Fresh products and if you know where I can buy them online in Italy leave a comment because I'm in love.
For the make up section this month I've got 2, well 3.
Things to show you a foundation and 2 lip products let's start with the foundation this little guy by the brand By terry that once again it's quite hard to get here in Italy you can easily get it in France, it's available in Sephora and lately I've been often in France and the shop assistant in Sephora was raving so much about it that even if I know it's her job I decided to give it a try and I've been liking it a lot the peculiarity is that it's a cream foundation with a built in brush and if you press at the buttom the product comes out, you apply it on your face and I usually blend it with the Beauty blender What I like the most about this foundation is that it's really brightening it is in fact a brightening foundation, that evens out the skin, it's not heavy at all but the coverage is good enough to hide the bigger imperfections I think it's perfect for Summer because it's light weight, once you have it on you can't feel it anymore but the coverage is good nevertheless.
Just like any By Terry product it's quite expensive though but I can't remember the exact price, sorry about that, I'll try to link to Sephora France so that you can get an idea of the price I've got the number 5, peach beige but it's available in many different shades.
The next two products are lip creams by NYX the soft matte lip creams and they have a matt finish I'm wearing this one right now I bought them on Amazon, but they're available on Asos too if you prefer The peculiarity of these lips products, lip creams is that they are easy to apply, while similiar products are often very thick and hard to use or they really dry the lips these ones on the other hand are soft and creamy so it's easy to apply it doesn't dry straight away which means you have time to touch it up if necessary then it becomes matt, without drying out the lips too much.
It's available in a million shades and they all have a city or a country related name, I chose this one which is called Antwerp which is a muted punk.
Punk???? I mean muted pink! and by contrast I also got his one, called Morocco, which is a bright red with an orangy undertone and I like them both because they last a long time, and they are quite intense.
and those were my make up favourites now let's jump straight to the clothes I've got a few more bits to show you but I'll do it later because I'be got quite a few items to show and I'm really excited about some of them.
I'll start with the dress that I love the most and I didn't even wear it yet I know it sounds weird but that's the truth Before I show it I'd like to quickly tell you something about this purchase Around 3 months ago I went into a Ted Baker shop I think I was in Marseille and I spotted this dress but my size was not available.
Ok then in London I went again in a Ted Baker shop and once again my size was not available more recently in Nice, in the Galerie Lafayettes, where there is a Ted Baker corner I looked for it again and it wasn't available then when I lost hope I realized that it was availablre in my size on Asos, isn't that funny? So I got it and as you will see it's a dress that can be worn every day or on special occasions and as I have a wedding in July I thought it was simply perfect I'm talking about this guy, that it's completely washed out by the lights but I'll insert some close ups so that you can see it.
It's a slightly retro looking dress in a white fabric with an adorable floral print on the skirt on the back it has a sheer section, but not too wide to show your bra it fits gorgeously and it even has pockets which is a great plus for me.
As I said it's by Ted Baker, it's a bit more expensive than my usual finds I think I paid it around 200.
290 euros, but the quality is amazing and as I said at the beginning it's a dress that can be worn on special occasions but on a daily basis too because often the dresses you get for cerimonies can't be worn that often, while this one is a win win and I love it I haven't worn it yet because I'm saving it for the wedding in July but I'm not sure I'll resist and I decided to show it straight away because it may run out of stock soon and I wanted to give you a chance to get it in case you'll love it as much as I do.
Now let's move to the other pieces which are definitely more affordable like this skirt that I got from H&M and that I fell in love with it's quite a basic skirt, it's a bit flared with an asymmetrical end elasticated on the waist, but the thing I love the most is the fabric which is super soft it's flowy and fits perfectly, I fell in love as soon as I tried it so I had to get it and by the way I already wore it a lot I think I may have worn it everyday last week because it's super comfy it's easy to pair as black goes with almost everything I like to wear it with a bright shirt or with a black one for a minimal look black is my favourite color and even if in Summer I like to add some bright pieces sometimes I enjoy a total black look too Speaking about brighter pieces.
Tadaaaa I found this bright blouse with poppies and wildflowers in Promod and honestly I never buy anything in Promod but while walking in front of the shop window I noticed these bright blouses and I felt like adding a bit of color to my wardrobe and the prices in Promod are very interesting so I got it and I already wore it a lot I paired it with a red skirt for a pop of color or with my jeans and a white tshirt, this kind of pieces are perfect for this time of the year because you can make it look more girly adding a skirt or super casual with jeans or leggings and a t-shirt.
Another of my favourites is the blouse I'm wearing right now that I got from H&M with the black skirt to wear together and I ended up liking them both a lot, together and separately I like this blouse because it fits nicely while often blouses are or too loose or too tight on my breast this one fits perfecty and I love the frills on the front that add a special touch to it I usually pair it with skirts for a girly look you can pair it with pencil skirts too, I don't wear them much, but I'm sure it would look good and as it's by H&M the price is affordable too.
It's time to show the last piece and I kept it as last one because you can't buy it anywhere but as some of you asked me, after watching my vlog from the Vintage fair in Belgioioso near Pavia, what I had bought The answer is that I only bought one piece this 60ies original soft jersey nautical dress with this flap on the back, I don't know how it's called On the front it has some buttons and a white edge the skirt is flared and it has a belt too.
and those were all of my May favourite clothes I hope you found them interesting, now let's talk about accessoires.
This month I won't bother you with the accessories I create in case you don't know each wednesday I show you on my blog my latest creations they are all one of a kind bijoux that I create and if you wish to know more I invite you to check my blog or my Facebook page because in the photo section you can see all the available pieces the links to my social networks and my blog are in the infobox and if you should like something don't hesitate to contact me through a private message on Facebook That said let's talk about my favourite accessory and it's this necklace that I bought in Promod together with the shirt.
I went in to try the shirt and I immediately noticed the necklace and I bought it too and I'm glad I did because it brightens up every outfit it's not heavy and it has this lovely rosy coppery shade it's perfect for Summer, I love it and as I said I bought it in Promod.
If you follow my channel you'll know that I do love candles I always have some burning, even right now I have two over there one one here and some more around the house and recently in the Galeries Lafayettes in Nice I spotted the Anthropologie corner, if you're not familiar it's an american brand, I think.
that sells clothes and home decor pieces but they have very peculiar pieces as they select the products in order to be different and cool Long story short I noticed that they had some amazing candles and I bought a few, one is over there but my favourite is this one it's fresh, summery and slightly citrusy I'm in love with the jar that it's worth the money on its own, it's amazing I keep saying amazing, bear with me.
Isn't it beautiful? You can use it once you burn the candle to store your bijoux and it will dress up your room Ok we reached the last section and I feel like I've been rambling more than usual so let's move on the the books! My May favourite book without any doubt is D'amore si muore ma io no by Guido Catalano If you're not familiar Guido Catalano is an italian poet his poems are really beautiful but he is very far from the classic idea of a poet as it's poems are super comtemporary and relatable but this not a poem collection but a novel in which Guido Catalano talks about love in a very funny and true way and it's very easy to relate with the main character with his weaknesses, his defects, with his qualities and it's a book that keeps you glued to the pages a book that you will find yourself quoting, which is always a good sign In few words D'amore si muore, ma io no, the first novel of the last of the poets by Guido Catalano is my suggestion for this month Et voilā, we reached the end of another favourites video I hope I didn't bore you as I feel like I've been talking away too much but apparently today I was in chatty mood and I left myself ramble a lot I hope you liked the video anyway, if so please give it a thumbs up so that I'll know you enjoyed it if you haven't yet subscribe in order not to miss any new video I remind you once more that on my blog you'll find the list of all the products mentioned with direct purchasing links where available and my blog address is in the downbar Ok, that's really it, I send you a big kiss and I'll see you in my next one,ciaooo.

(upbeat music) - Hey, welcome back to my Men's Fall and Winter Essential series.
So when I first released my peacoat and overcoat video and article, a lot of New Englanders,Canadians, and Northern Europeans complained that they couldn'twear any of my favorite pieces because they just weren't warm enough.
Now, I'll admit it, livingin Southern California, excuse me, has actually skewed myperspective in this regard.
So, let's rectify this.
To me, there's reallyonly one winter jacket that I like and thatlooks great on everyone, and keeps you nice and warm, and that is the parka.
But not all parkas are created equally.
I'm over this hood.
So, first and foremost,I'm constantly asked for stylish winter jackets.
When it comes to crazy cold weather, I think that utilityshould supersede style.
And that's not to say that, my hair has gone crazy, that's not to say yourparka isn't stylish, but no one's going tolook at you in your parka, and think, "Wow, youroutfit looks so amazing.
" Parkas are designed to go over your outfit and be taken off thesecond you step indoors.
So, if you really want tolook stylish in cold weather, then wear one of my fall jackets, or an overcoat or peacoat, and layer like your life depends on it.
So, let's quickly go over what to look for in a good parka.
First, depending on yourclimate, and how cold it gets will determine how longyour parka should be.
So, the colder your climate,the longer your parka.
So, you'll want a hip-length parka if you live in a climatethat's cold but not crazy cold.
If you live in the tundra,then you'll want a parka that goes down to yourknees or even past that.
If you live somewhere whereit's kind of in the middle, then you want to go with a parka that hits about mid-thigh.
So, just don't be that guy in San Diego wearing a knee-length parka.
It's just too much, and looks weird.
As for colors, I lovenavy, black, and olive.
Just make sure thematerial isn't too shiny.
If I had to choose a color, I prefer navy becauseit's still really dark, but it's easily wearable.
Olive is also a really great color, too.
Black can sometimes look a bitjarring in such a big jacket, but all of those colors willlook perfectly acceptable.
Next, make sure your parkafits relatively well.
So, what I mean by that is you want the shouldersand body of your parka to lightly hug everywhere.
You don't want it to betoo loose or too tight.
So, when you are trying ona parka for the first time, it's really important thatyou're wearing at least a sweater and shirt.
Make sure to zip up that bad boy, because you want to ensure that it doesn't fit too tightly in the body.
As far as lining goes, I prefer down, but synthetic is perfectly acceptable.
But I just think that downkeeps you a little bit warmer, but as always, your mileage may vary.
So, the last feature youwant to look for in a parka is a detachable fur trim on the hood.
This is not a deal breaker, but is more of a convenience thing.
I just think it's nicewhen you have the option of removing that fur trim.
That way you just get twodifferent looks out of one jacket.
Even though they're mostly a utility item, and style takes a backseat,I couldn't help but style a parka outfit for you.
So, one of my favorites is by Parajumpers.
I really like the fitof all of their jackets.
So, I style this navy parka, with a crewneck sweater,wool trousers, and wingtips.
And, of course, I threw on a scarf and some gloves to finish it all off.
Check out my website formy other favorite parkas that'll fit any budget.
And I'm really curious, definitelyleave me a comment below and let me know who makesyour favorite parkas.
Alright, so subscribe to my channel for more videos like this, and if you liked thisvideo, give it a thumbs up.
Thanks so much for watching,I'll see you in the next one.

Ted Baker is the largest fashion and design success in England for the past 20 years.
The success of Ted is based on the quality of the clothes, the attention to detail.
But most of all, Ted never do something like the others.
The first accessories from Ted Baker on the Swiss market are glasses, which were launched as exclusivity of Visilab.
Thanks to the success of his glasses at Visilab Ted Baker has begun take an interest in the Swiss market.
They have therefore sought globe, who asked: "Ted Baker, what is it?" and they answered them: "Come with, we run into a Visilab business".
Therefore, they now have a trade agreement and Ted Baker is the current autumn-winter collection launch in all major world-stores in Switzerland.
As for the novelties of the Ted Baker collection, we work more or less in the same way.
Ted Baker is an English brand, with an English sense of humor.
There are always contemporary forms, with a different touch, always with the attention to detail, with graded color or even poppy on the inside than the outside.
They are very portable and simple shapes, always with a little bit extra.
For sunglasses, there is a wider range of colors, always with top current colors.
This year there are blood orange, fuchsia, yellow Limoncello.
It is always quite trendy colors, but also great classic tortoiseshell and black.
It inspired always to the leather goods or to the prêt-à-porter collections of Ted Baker: Ties for the men, scarves, handbags for women.
And you try to reinterpret or modify the product.
"A New Breed of Eyewear" "that's saying a new glasses-race, and Ted Baker Glasses are really an absolute new style in eyewear.
We told ourselves, instead of always just see the same beautiful models with glasses on the posters, you could do with Ted Baker little crazier.
And we have about a horse and a very, very sweet little fox.

Sports Jacket - Blazer - Suit - What's TheDifference 3 Classic Menswear Pieces [0:00:00] Hi! I'm Antonio Centeno, the founder of RealMen Real Style.
Today, I'm going to be talking about the sports jacket, the blazer jacket,the suit jacket.
What is the difference? Many of you guys are out there.
You're outthere looking to purchase a jacket and you're like, "Okay, what is the difference? Can Iwear my suit jacket as a blazer jacket? Is this blazer jacket technically a sports jacket?"And it doesn’t help that a lot of people out there selling these items don’t knowthe difference themselves and they're confusing the terminology, confusing the words, andin many cases, you see clothing being made which is kind of a hybrid between them.
The rules I'm going to give you today, I'mgoing to talk about each of the jackets and I'm going to talk about the fit, the fabric,and the function of each of them.
I'm going to give you general guidelines.
You're goingto find a lot of the clothing out there will fall somewhere between these, but using theseguides, you're going to be able to make a smart, informed decision and make sure thatyou purchase the right jacket, and just as importantly, you wear the right jacket forthe right occasion.
Okay.
Before we get into this, guys, I'd appreciateit if you would subscribe to my YouTube channel.
That way, these videos come right to you.
I don’t want you to miss any of them and I put out these little ghost videos, so ifyou're not subscribed, you're not going to get them.
In addition, if you want more information,go to Real Men Real Style.
I'm going to link down below, but I've created an entire infographicand article that goes into more detail than I talk about here in the video.
Let's getinto it.
Let's start off with the suit jacket.
Now,many of you guys are familiar with this and we're going to talk specifically the definitionof a suit jacket, is a jacket that is made with basically a matching pair of trousers.
And when I say matching, it's made from the exact same fabric.
In fact, when I used to-- and I still own my custom clothier -- whenever we make clothing, we make sure it comes froma suit.
It actually comes from the same role.
The fabric is right next to each other ifthey're cut.
What's interesting is in a mill, over time the actual color and the way things-- consistency, they try to keep high, but if you actually try to match a pair of blacktrousers or a black jacket, you may find that they actually don’t match up.
Sometimesthere's a difference in the weave.
Other times, it may be that if you wear one more than theother, they can start to fade, so that is one of the reasons I recommend do not tryto wear your suit jacket as a blazer or a sports jacket.
Number one, it has a matchingpair of trousers and you keep them together.
The other part about this is suit jacketsare going to be the most formal.
In men's style, in men's clothing, usually the mostformal items are going to be the simplest.
You're not going to see any fancy pocketsand you probably should avoid in your first few suits fancy patterns, stripes, checks.
Now, those things are in some suits, but we're talking here -- and if you're watching thisvideo and you have that bit of confusion, you probably need to focus on the foundationsuits, which are going to be charcoal gray, navy blue, maybe lighter gray.
If you're lookingat black tie, which technically a tuxedo is a suit, it is a matching jacket, matchingtrousers.
So suit jackets, the buttons normally aregoing to be on a lot of stuff being produced today plastic, but hopefully we would seehorn on higher end jackets, again, mostly going to be navy, charcoal gray, lighter gray,occasionally black, although I'm not a big fan of black for suits unless it is blacktie.
Now, let's talk about the fit.
A suit jacketis made to fit a bit slimmer and should fit you slimmer.
Now, a lot of guys buy suit jackets,which are too big, but a suit jacket is not really made to be layered with clothing underneath.
You should wear a shirt under it, occasionally maybe a sweater vest, something to keep youwarm in cold weather if you're moving around quite a bit, but you're not going to wearfull sweaters underneath them, and we'll talk about in a few minutes why that's important.
We've talked about the fit can be a bit closer.
The fabric, again in suit jackets, it's mostly going to be solids.
You will see some pinstripes,some chalk stripes, and some checks.
The function of the jacket is again the most formal.
Allof the style aspects -- and I get into this more in the infographic.
The function, ifyou look at the lapel right here, this is a sports jacket.
You're usually just goingto see, on a suit jacket, notch lapels.
You will occasionally see peak lapels especiallyin formal wear.
Black tie, you'll see shawl lapels and you will see peak lapels, hopefullynot notch lapels in formal wear.
Guys, that is a suit jacket.
Now, let's go take a step lower.
Let's goto the blazer jacket.
The blazer jacket is interesting because it's a hybrid.
It's goingto be more formal than a sports jacket, but it is not a suit jacket because it's not madewith a matching pair of trousers as we had talked about, so let's first talk about thefit.
I would say blazers you're going to see sometimesare going to be a little bit looser.
They're not going to also be structured.
Suit jacketsusually have more structure in the shoulders.
Blazers, you will sometimes see structure.
Other times, you may see a bit looser of a build especially if it's of Italian heritage.
Let's talk about the fabric.
Most blazersyou're going to see out there, especially ones you're buying off the rack, are goingto be in navy blue.
[0:05:04] You're going to see them made from blue worstedserge and that's the classic.
You're going to see flannel.
You're going to see hopsackoccasionally, but really any lightweight worsted wool.
You can also sometimes see linen mixedin there, but navy blue is going to be most of the colors there.
Now, there are some exceptions.
I know you're going to see red, you're going to see green, but those are very rare.
I talkabout regatta blazers and stuff in the article, so go check that out if that's what you wantto know about.
Now, the function, the function like I saidfalls between the suit jacket and the sports jacket.
Sporting events, weekend events, anytimethat a suit isn't appropriate, but you still want to dress it up with a blazer.
Now, whatcan you match with a navy blazer? This actually will apply to a sports jacket as well, butgray flannel trousers, chinos, jeans -- yes, jeans, you can actually pull it off.
You'realso going to see colored twill, cords.
There are a wide number of things.
Blazer jackets,it's not going to -- the big thing right here, it's not going to have to match, guys.
I know many of you guys are waiting for this,the buttons on a blazer jacket.
Normally, we're going to see gold, silver, mother-of-pearl.
The buttons usually stand out on a blazer.
Now, let's go to the sports jacket.
Let'slook at the word, sports jacket.
The idea was this was the sporting man's jacket.
Because of that, let's talk about the fit.
Remember I said that you shouldn't layer with a suit jacket.
Well, with the sports jacket,you can layer.
This is a sports jacket.
It's made from -- we've got a tweed fabric righthere and what's really nice about this is that I can actually wear a sweater underneath.
It's a little bit looser than some of my suit jackets, and that's the cool thing about asports jacket, is it's actually made to be worn out, to be a bit more rugged.
Nowadays, you're not going to see that asmuch, but that goes into the style and the function of the jacket.
So on the back ofthe jacket, sometimes we'll see pleats.
We'll see arm patches that actually -- well, oncethey're for a purpose.
Now, they're more for show.
We're also going to see ticket pocketoccasionally, so the ticket pocket goes right above the pocket right here and was for holdinga ticket.
We're also going to see on the lapels I talked about, this is a sports lapel whichis made to actually close up the jacket because if you're out hunting, you want to be ableto protect your upper chest and neck area.
We've talked about the fit.
We've talked aboutthe fabric.
I didn’t go -- there are a number of types of tweed.
I'm going to go into moreon this in the article and the infographic, but we're going to be thinking Donegal tweed,Harris tweed, Houndstooth.
You'll also see some solids in brown, green, gray, and blue.
Blue is pretty common and I like that especially if you go with something that is differentthan the navy and maybe bring in a bit of a pattern.
You will also see a wide rangeof checks and patterns in sports jackets.
This is where it gets to be a little bit offun.
Now, the function of a sports jacket, of allthe jackets, this is the most casual.
Don’t try to wear a sports jacket when a suit isrequired and a blazer isn't probably going to be the first odd jacket.
Now, odd jacketscover both sports jackets and blazers.
I would recommend definitely getting a sports jacketafter you have your first suit and then getting a blazer.
Hopefully you guys found this useful, again,a lot more information in the article and the infographic, which I've created to gowith this video.
Take care, gentlemen.
I'll see you in the next video.
Bye-bye.

- What's up, guys? Matt from the FootballBoots Team, and today, we are here to bring youthe top ten best boot hacks to help you get boots betterfitting, better feeling, and also better performing.
So let's get right into our first one.
Okay, guys, so our first hackactually comes as two parts.
So there are two massivebonuses to this boot hack.
And we have got some Forcefield protector.
But you can use any kind of Crep Protect.
But what this does is firstly, gonna waterproof your football boots.
And secondly, hopefullyit's also gonna mean that you don't have to cleanthem as often or as much.
So let's get right into how to use it.
Now this stuff is actually so good.
I use it on all my trainers.
And what they say is, "The Forcefield protector'selite technology "provides armor-likeprotection and waterproofing "for all types of footwear, outerwear, "backpacks and also hats.
"The invisible coatingshields fabric from damage "and prevents fading, keepinggear looking newer longer.
" So what we have to do is first, you give it a good old shake up.
We've got a pair of football boots here.
Make sure that these are clean first.
Give it a good old shake.
And then all you need to do is spray it onto the actual upper.
Don't put it onto the sole pad, 'cause it won't really makethat much difference there.
What you want is go all across the upper, and also across the tongue.
'Cause that's where you wantit to be most waterproof.
So after giving it a little shake, all you need to do, open it up, hold it about 30 centimetres away, that's what I recommend.
Maybe a little bit similarto deodorant in the morning.
And then all you need to do is just spray it on top.
And first, you'll noticeit goes a little bit shiny.
So it will give your boots anice looking finish as well.
So just spray it all over the upper.
You don't need to use too much, really.
Just keep spraying it,make sure it's all coated.
And then once you've done it, I'll bring it in a littlebit closer for you.
It says use sparingly.
So make sure it's all over.
And then as a little bit of a closeup, where you guys are.
I'll bring it a little bit closer as well for you in a second.
We'll do a nice big closeup, just so you guys can see.
And then once this is dry, what we'll do, we'll poursome water over the top, to show you guys just howwell this really does work.
So here's a closer look atthe two different boots.
On this side, these haven'tbeen given any waterproof and any protection, and this is the pair which have.
So what we'll do now is just wait five minutes for it to fully dry.
So let's actually get into it to find out if it actuallydoes make a difference, this Forcefield protection.
So I've got my water bottle, and all we'll be doing is spraying it over the top of the upper.
And as you guys can see, I'm literally pouring it on top.
And literally the waterisn't going anywhere inside the boot.
It's just sitting on top.
Hope you guys can pick that up on camera.
But the water is literally Icould just shake it all off.
And your foot inside the bootis gonna stay incredibly dry.
Which means the water'snot gonna go inside, making the boots heavy.
They're gonna stay waterproof, which is gonna be brilliant, especially in those winter conditions.
So how often do you need todo this protection coating? Well, they say it lasts about 12 months, but that is for trainers.
Obviously football boots, much more wear, much more aggressive playduring your 90 minutes.
So I'd say do it afterevery time you wear them.
So wear them for your football, give 'em a quick clean, andthen put this spray on top.
Leave them for a couple of minutes, and then they are ready to go again.
Little bit similar to Nike's ACC, but this just makes surethe waterproofing is 100%, every time you wear them.
So that is our first hack.
So let's move on to number two.
Now for any of you guys thatwatch our videos regularly, or know me, will know that I personallywear the Hypervenom Phinish.
I love the boot so much.
I think they're quality.
But there is one problem with them, which I actually have to address.
And that is the sock liner inside the boot just moves around so much.
There's no NikeGrip, and they're also not stuck in properly.
Now there is one way to conquer this, which we're gonna show you now.
Now what I've got besideme are two pairs of boots, which I've tested fairly recently.
And I experienced the exact same problem.
Both the Opus II and the Vapour XI come with very standard sock liners, no NikeGrip.
And when I was actually testing them, after about half an hour, once my feet got a little bit warm, and also the uppers startedto stretch a little bit, the sock liner started tomove around ever so slightly.
Now two ways that you can do this.
They're both very similar.
But firstly, you cantake the sock liner out, and spray the plate witha little bit of hairspray, and also the bottom of the sock liner.
Now after you spray it with the hairspray, put it back in, stick it downfor maybe like five minutes, put some weight on it.
And trust me, it will stayon a lot longer than it would just normally.
So using hairspray is the first way to deal with this situation.
But there is a second way.
It's a little bit more unique, but it works so much more powerfully.
So if anyone you guys that go to physio, and if you get that Ktape to help your muscles, then you'll sometimes usethis spray just before it.
Now that spray is someof the stickiest stuff I've ever felt in my life.
If you put the tape on top of the spray, it won't move for over a week.
Trust me, it is unbelievably powerful.
So if you can use that spray across the bottom of the sock liner, and then stick it into your soleplate, your sock liners won't movewhatsoever for such a long time.
But just make sure that youdo want those sock liners to be the ones inside the boots.
Because once you stick them in there, there's probably notgonna be any chance of it coming out at all.
So of course, I mentionedabout my Phinish, and how I love them so much.
But the sock liner was aproblem for me, and still is.
Now one thing which isgreat about the Phantom 3, so the upgraded model, is that the sock liner actually comes with NikeGrip technology.
Now firstly, it just means that when the sock is on top of the sock liner, it won't move whatsoever.
But it also features onthe actual plate itself inside the boot.
So the sock liner stays attached very much more comparedto the Phinish ones.
So this next boot hack might bemy favourite one of all time.
It's so effective, and you're pretty muchgetting two pairs of boots for the price of one.
Now you're not actuallygetting two pairs of boots, but what you are getting is a soleplate which canchange its stud configuration.
We've got the old school Nitrocharges, but this works in allthe Adidas boots as well, which have just been released.
We've got an SG soleplate here.
On the right-hand side,exactly the same boot, but we've got FGs completely.
And the reason for that is Adidas's SG boots actuallycome with replaceable FG studs.
So you can change them as you want.
All SG, all FG, or you cando a combination as well.
It really is that effective.
So guys, when we boughtthese Nitrocharges, they did come as the SGsoleplate, the ones here.
But since then, we gotthe replacement studs, and we made them into a full FG pair.
But let's just say, the pitches are startingto get a little bit wetter, and we want to start toput some SG studs back in.
So you're probably gonnawant them at the back here, in the heel.
So all you need to dois unscrew these ones.
Really simple, take theother one out as well.
And the nice thing about thesereplacement studs, the FG, is that they come withdifferent sizes as well.
So you can put the longer ones in the back where you want them, and also an the front youcan get the smaller one.
So you can pretty much customise them exactly the way you want.
But let's just say wewanna put those studs back in the heel.
We've got our tube.
And simple as putting them in like that.
So in the space of maybe a minute, you've literally gone from a SG to a FG, and then into a combination as well.
So that is so simple.
Great boot hack.
So if you are playing onon soft ground pitches and also firm ground, then you could definitely gofor an Adidas model over Nike.
Because Adidas are theonly boots out there which can only do this with.
So guys, we've all been there.
We've got a new pair of boots that we went in for training on matches, and by the end of the session, the tongue is all the wayrolled over to the side, which is really frustrating.
But there is a way toactually counter this.
And also helps the overall responsive, locked down, and snug fit.
Now all you need to make sure, is got an extra lace hole at the top.
Now, when you're actually lacing them up, don't go crisscross on the final one.
Pull it through the top,to make a little loop here.
So we do the same on the other side.
We make a little lace hoop, push it through the top.
And now we've got an extra hole.
Now when you're actuallygoing to tie them up, you're gonna go through those holes.
And then you pull them tight and trust me, that tongue isn't gonna move whatsoever for the whole 90 minutes.
And also it makes such atighter fit around the ankle.
So this lacing technique wasactually done by Lionel Messi back in the day.
We've got his Mirosar10 Adizeros here, and of course these were hissignature boots at the time.
So that's why they came withan extra lace hole at the top.
So he could create this top lacing hoop, to make sure the fit isgonna be absolutely top level in terms of being locked down.
So guys, this next boot hackis absolutely essential.
If you've bought a pairof boots the wrong size, you can't send them backfor whatever reason, they might be half a size too big, or half a size too small.
Now there's a couple of waysto actually alter the sizes, make them shrink, or makethem stretch a little bit.
Now the first one is if theboots are half a size too big.
Now this is really quick, really simple.
All you need to do is drenchthe boots in warm water, make sure they're absolutely soaking wet, and do exactly the same witha pair of football socks.
Now once they are soaking wet, all you need to do is put the sock on, and then put the boot on as well.
So at that time, you've got asoaking wet pair of socks on, and a soaking wet pair of boots on.
Now all you need to do is standthere, sit there, lay down, and just wait until yoursock is completely dry.
And trust me, by the time that's happened, the boots are just shrunk half a size.
So just make sure that youdon't want to send these back for whatever reason.
You're happy with the boots.
Want to make them shrink ever so slightly, and trust me, this willdo that perfectly for you.
So then what's the secondway to actually give you guys a little bit more space in your boot? Maybe 'bout half a size or so.
Well, you can stretch them out as well.
All you need to do is get one of those bags witha little sealer on top.
Fill it up about threequarters of the way up.
Now once you got that bag, put them into the boot itself, push it in right towards where the toe is.
Tie the laces really tightly up.
And then once you've got that and you put it into the freezer overnight.
Now you need to leave itin the freezer overnight to make sure that it'sproperly gonna expand.
Because once the water actually freezes, it will just make itexpand ever so slightly.
And trust me, this is really powerful.
So it will actually make a big difference to the overall fit.
So overnight, you leave it in there.
It's got the bag of waterwhich is now frozen.
You take it out in the morning.
You take the bag out, and then you actually put the boots on, and you will, trust me,feel a big, big difference in terms of the fit.
They will just feelslightly stretched out.
Now if you wanna stretch it even more, you can just keep repeating the process.
But just make sure youreally wanna do this because there is a slight chance that you could damage the upper.
So guys, this next boothack is gonna be perfect if you're in two situations.
Firstly, you bought a brandnew pair of football boots, and they're half a size toobig, and for whatever reason, you can't send them back.
Or secondly, you'vebeen wearing your boots for such a long time, that they've actuallystretched and are now too big.
Now what can you do to actually help this? Well, if you can't send them back, or if they are just stretchedout and they're too big now, you can simply just putanother pair of sock liners inside the boot.
Which is exactly what you might need for the pair of Purecontrol.
The sizing in these boots is so iffy.
You have to get in theperfect size for you.
Too tight, and you get reallybad blisters on the back.
And too loose, and your foot slides around and gets some real bad heel slippage.
Now all you need to do is get your second pair of sock liners.
Hopefully you can get thenearest ones as possible to the actual model it was.
And you've got the original ones in there.
And just slide these ones on top.
We've mentioned this before, but trust me, it's such a good boot hack for customising the fit.
And just like that, theseare now half a size smaller.
So if they had stretched,or they are too big, you've now just conquered that within the space of two minutes.
So guys, we got Blake in the background taking some pictures.
And this boot hack was his one.
Because this is something which he does in his own personal boot life.
Before he buys any pair of football boots, he goes to the sports shopand actually tries them on.
So although you can pickthem up online cheaper, you can definitely go to a sports shop, try them on to make surethey're gonna fit you firstly, in terms of width.
And you can also get theperfect sizing for you.
So just say I wanted the Purecontrols.
Go down to the sportsshop, ask to try them on, do they firstly fit me in width? And secondly, what size do I want? Once you've got those answers, go online, and search for the best price.
And again, very similarin Mercurial Vapour XIs, very tight-fitting boot overall.
If you've never had them, you might not know if they're actually gonna fit your type of foot.
Go down to a sports shop, trythem on, make sure they do.
And if they do, thengo and buy them online with all those vouchercodes, discount codes.
They're gonna be much cheaper than what you found ina football boot shop.
Yes guys, we've all been there.
We play 90 minutes on thewettest, muddiest pitch you've ever played on in your life.
Now by the end of it, you'vegot the muddiest boots.
All that pitch has nowbecome onto your boots, and it's an absolute disaster.
Now you can spend loads of time, and make of loads of messwith a toothbrush, a brush, and Fairy liquid, makingthe boots clean again.
But trust me, it is such a balaba.
There is a better way to do it.
Now on screen now, we are showing you how to put your bootsin the washing machine using a brand new product.
It is so simple.
It doesn't do any damage to the boots, or damage to the washing machine.
There have been a couple offootball channels out there who've said, "Don't put yourboots in the washing machine! "It's gonna kill your boots.
"Don't do it, do not put yourboots in the washing machine.
" I can confirm to you, putting my boots in the washing machine, for my entire playing career, it won't do any damage, whatsoever,unless they are leather.
So if you have leather football boots, then do clean them properly.
But if you have syntheticboots or knitted boots, literally put them in the bag, stick them in the washing machine.
But you don't even need thebag at the end of the day.
That's just an ended bonus.
So if you do have muddy boots like these, stick them in the washing machine.
That's what I'm gonna dostraight after this video.
So it's coming into preseason, and I can almost guarantee that at least 75% ofus are gonna experience some kind of blister on our feet.
Firstly, due to the very hard ground.
And secondly, because ofbrand new football boots.
But there is one way to help with blisters on the back of the heel.
But it is very extreme, and something I probablywouldn't recommend.
And we saw it from Philippe Coutinho in the latter stages ofthis season just past.
Now, he wears the Mercurial Vapour XI, and what he did when he got a heel blister was actually cut out the backportion in a square shape.
As I said guys, it is very extreme.
But just say your blisters are that bad, you're playing so much football that it's not actually healing, what you can do isactually cut out a shape, on that specific part of the foot, to make sure there'sno additional pressure hitting that area, which is causing pain.
Yes guys, this is the boothack that you're all here for and all want to know.
How do you get free boots for life? Well, it's not actually that simple, but what you can do issend you boots back to Nike for whatever reason, withinone month to get a new pair.
Now you can only really do it once because it might affect yourfuture purchasing rights, but just say you get aVapour XI or the Phantom 3, you've gone for akickabout with your mates, and you don't reallylove the way they fit, feel, or perform.
So what you can do issend them back to Nike and ask for a differentmodel or a different size.
But you can only do it once, as I said, because it might affectyour rights as a purchaser.
So there it is guys, the black and orange team'stop ten best boot hacks to help you guys with any boot issuesyou may be experiencing.
But what's been your favourite? And also, what ones have youtried yourself in the past? Please let us know in thecomment section below.
But that pretty muchwraps up today's video.
So I hope you've enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching, cheers.

Hi! Today I for decided to do a Stocholm haul is a video Because it was in my Requested blog.
On the first night I just had to buy These two! And These Are Victoria's Secret's body mists, and this other is Love Spell, Which smells like cherry blossom and peach.
I do smell peach, but I'm not that sure of the cherry blossom.
This other is Angel, and this does not have the same scent "base" as the VS Fantasies have.
This is like the Angel perfume, but lighter version So I do not use this is a "daytime" Because The scent is the same as the perfume.
And this smells so nice and this is now one of my favorite scents.
From Åhléns I bought this see through box from Muji, where I store small makeup pallettes.
At Oasis I fell in love with this light green crop top! I bought this because i do not have any green clothes in my wardrobe.
Although Lush is in Finland I stopped by and bought my favorite lip balm, Honey Trap.
At Sephora I stopped by to buy a Benefit lipstick and a mini Ciaté nailpolish.
This was really cheap Compared to what it costs full size and not on sale.
I really like this packaging and it reminds me of an episode of Mr.
Selfridge.
And this color is a really pretty coral one and this was just what I was looking for.
This was suprisingly cheap to be a Benefit lipstick, cheek Because The products are quite expensive.
It's really creamy on the lips and does not stick to the dry parts of my lips.
From Monki I bought These shorts in size S, Which suprised me too.
My usual size is ML.
Still I like them and I needed just shorts like these.
Then lastly when we went the last time to Tax Free shops I bought this face brush.
This is like an electric toothbrush, but is your face.
You brush different parts of your face A Certain time.
I have heard of many YouTubers of this, and it has helped them With Their skin problems.
This is better than just clean your face with your bare hands.
You do not need to use any cleansers different than you normally do to use the brush.
Comment down below if you want a first impression of this in a few weeks! The last but not least, I bought this lovely make-up bag alsó from the Tax Free shop.
This has a lot of space and is great for traveling.

So the temperatures are finally dropping,it's getting cold out there.
You're bringing out your fall gear and to matchthose outfits you're gonna need proper footwear, to not only look good andstylish but also be functional keep you warm, dry, and safe; and today I have youcovered.
We're gonna go over the five most stylish fall and winter shoes thatyou should have in your collection.
Number one, the Chelsea boot.
I mean, need I say more? You guys see me rocking these all thetime.
Personally, I think this is the one shoe that it just doesn't matter whatage group you're in, whether you're super young in school, or olderthis boot works for you.
Because it works with almost any style.
I would recommend you avoid any leather sole Chelsea boots, as these don't tend to grip very well.
These from Thursday Boots are perfect, because they have a rubberized sole thathave a lot of traction.
And as you guys know, when it comes to boots there is onebrand that I always see myself repeatedly wearing, and that's ThursdayBoots.
These particular Chelsea Boots come with a weather safe, suede cork bed midsole and an EVA comfort strip.
Which means you're going to remain comfortable and dry all day.
These boots deliver on everything both style functionality andcomfort ability.
I mean what more do you want? If you guys want to check theseboots out from our sponsor they're gonna be linked down below.
The second shoe option is, the Adidas Ultra Boost.
This is the guy that wantssomething a little bit more casual.
As you guys know the Ultra Boost is a verypopular model, however Adidas thought ahead of the curve and they dropped anAll Terrain model right now, right before fall, you guys can pick up.
And all ofthe sneakers hallmarks that make the ultra boost popular, remain intact.
Youstill get that boost cushioning, and that knit upper.
However, you get that addedbenefit of a more aggressive All-Terrain sole for better traction and raising itto a mid top to give you added comfort support, and warmth during those coldwinter and fall months.
The third shoe style for fall and winter, is the ChukkaBoot.
This is another must for fall and winter, and again just like the Chelseaboot, this is a style that can be worn year-round, This model is also outfittedwith the weather safe suede.
Which means you're good and protected against anyrain or snow, it won't be damaging your shoes.
It also has stick outstruction and a full leather interior.
Which means you're gonna be supercomfortable in those shoes year-round, you can walk for miles in these.
If youguys want to check out any of these amazing handmade boots from ThursdayBoots, like I said there is gonna be a link down below.
Everything is handcrafted to perfection and they offer FREE shipping within the U.
S and alsofree returns.
And for any international viewers, they also do offer internationalshipping, and like I said I've been working with Thursday Boots for over three years.
Believe it or not, I was one of their first bloggers to ever work with them,and I still own that first pair of boots that I worked with them today and stillwear them.
So when I recommend them to you guys,I can recommend them to you blindly, because I know just how well-made theyare and that they're gonna last you a long time.
That you're gonna really juicethese boots and get your money's worth, not only in value but also in style.
Solike I said, if you guys want to check out any of these, they're gonna be linkeddown below.
The fourth shoe option for fall and winter are the Vans Skate HighMTE.
Vans basically revamped this timelessdesign with premium water resistant leather uppers, warm textile linings anda heat retention layer within the lining.
This will keep your feet warm and dryall season.
And on top of that it has a vulcanized lug outsole, which offersmaximum traction.
And finally for our last recommendation, this one's a littlebit more of a dapper one and it's the Wingtip Boot.
Just because it's fall andwinter doesn't mean you're gonna stop with those classy outfits, and you don'thave to.
Usually the best alternative for fall and winter suiting is some sort ofwing tip boot.
You get that classic wingtip design that looks great on suitsbut redesigned with a high top to give you more warmth, more comfort andmore support during the winter season.
Again this particular one is fromThursday Boots, and I believe this one's going to creep up in about two yearsthat I've owned this boot and just look how amazing it still looks.
And goesagain to what I was saying, that when you buy any of these styles, you're gonna beusing it for multiple seasons and multiple years.
That's how well-built they are.
In this particular one again, it is that suedeoutsole that is weather safe; so it does keep you warm ,it is a stylish optionthat looks good with jeans, that looks good with suits, and it also has a rubberheel.
Again this is the dressy option, so it didn't go with the full rubbersole.
When you're dressing with suits, you still want to keep that slim, narrowsilhouette and don't want to chunky outsole.
So this one makes a great optionfor those events.
Alright guys, so that's it for this week's video.
I hope youenjoyed it, if you did don't forget to drop us a like down below.
Also if youguys want to check out any of the shoes from Thursday Boots, I'm gonna have themlinked down below as well so you guys can check them out.
That's it for metoday, see you next time!.
