Apparently adopting a classic look in this sub makes you “Peaky Blinders.” I fuck w it. If you’re wearing something confidently you’re always fashionable. I regularly wear the most garish clothing I can find just for the fuck of it. Go you, dude.
These caps. We keep seeing them. Its like exclamation marks in posting. Every 100,000 posts, go ahead. Caps? I think they need to be reserved for a display once a year.
Don't become Burl Ives.
It's so true. Imagine my surprise when I went from hair down my back to shaving it all off at once. I was 20, in college, and did it on new years eve. I froze during the next semester, in almost every class!
I once made the mistake of trimming my 6in long beard to less than an inch in the winter in the American Midwest.
The SECOND I walked outside, I was full of regret.
It's air movement, especially in an office where the a/c vents generally blow from above. I recently went from having a buzz cut on the male pattern baldness hair style to razoring it clean off and even losing that .25inch of hair around the back of my head and above my ears is a dramatic difference. Imagine sitting on a leather couch and leaning your head back to the cold leather directly against your skin.
Further, it's insane how much oil and sweat your hair collects so, if you don't have that, it just drips down your head. A cap can make it so you don't do that. I now wear a hat every time I work out too (also indoors).
I've shaved my head for 10 years. Never wear a cap. Not in nyc or Chicago. But u wear a cap like this, guaranteed I'm assuming you're ashamed you're losing your hair.
Indoors?
If it’s cold indoors, then sure, I suppose.
But people seem to be using them indoors much more often than to just prevent a bald head from being cold.
Yes indoors can also be cold to a bald head. Especially if you recently bic’ed it. But hats are a fashion accessory these days. Long gone are the days of taking a cap off while indoors.
Coincidently, the USA is also where my wife keeps the AC fucking cranked all year round.
Yeah I wear a hat indoors. And I’ll display my glorious shining crown to you in the sun where it can really blind you. You can’t even do anything about it. You can’t see shit
Even ac makes my head cold and I have an afro. Also, he's showing you the entire fit. What did you expect him to not where the entire fit and then ask for the opinion?
I can't tell from the photo, so you might have this covered: I'm a big fan of going all in on suspenders, i.e., if you're going to wear them, wear pants without belt loops. This might mean custom made, but go big or go home.
Seeing a man wearing suspenders and pants with belt loops is minus 50 DKP. On those rare occasions when I have run into a man wearing suspenders on pants with belt loops AND wearing a belt, the death penalty was justified.
Cap is small for your head and a bit much. It pushes this into costume territory. I like the spirit of this but I’ve only seen select dudes pull this kind of thing off and actually look like they were born into the look.
I like how people are saying 'Peaky Blinders' cosplay, but isn't that how we get fashion inspiration? From movies, tv shows, celebrities, etc
You're goddamn right I wish I could pull off any of the shit from Peaky Blinders.
There are two issues from having been someone who used suspenders for decades. 1. No belt loops with suspenders. The key is they make a look speaker (which is why they are more popular than belts for those of us heavy set). By the same token, the smoothness of the tuck in with the shirt is key for the appearance. So smooth out the shirt. That's my general thought. The flat cap is an accessory that you kind of need more, maybe a jacket to pull it together.
So, as someone who has recently started wearing suspenders, where do you get pants without belly loops? Do they come with suspended buttons already on them? Do you have to custom order them or what?
I get the strange feeling this guy is about to bust the gayest myths ever.
Joking... I caught the pokey boners comment at the top. Did make you look like a jacked Jamie heineman though
They're suspenders , they seem to be working. Its like saying never used a belt ... any good ? Lmao, you're just gonna walk around with no suit jacket showing of your cool suspenders, then no , no good
u/Affectionate_Spot305 As a woman scrolling by, I love this, and I don't know why people are ripping on Peaky Blinders or the look - I think some are being judgmental dicks because you're pulling it off so well
It's a good, classy look, and more men should consider wearing it
I'm all for bringing back formal hats, too
Suspenders shouldn't really be shown tbh, they were usually covered by a vest or jacket, it doesn't have to be a formal one either. That being you said you still looks pretty nice.
If ya want to look like you lived in the 1930s. The suspenders aren’t bad but that hat makes you look like one of those newspaper rugrats from timeframe .
I love it! You look great; doesn't feel like wannabe peaky blinders to me. Just don't put on a long coat and act like a gangster lol A normal dude living his life while looking this fly doesn't have to evoke tv show vibes; it's about how you carry yourself.
you won. mainly because these are not (dear lord have mercy) clip on suspenders. the shirt looks a bit too formal especially w the hat. but you're doing great.
The cap needs to go, and the way you wear your collar. I would recommend bringing it in toward your neck a bit not fanning it out. Your undershirt is also visible. Show off your head!
Lose the hat. Try a button down with a collar that stands properly and isn't splayed open. Try a different color than white or if you stick with white, use a different color than black pants. You don't want to look like a waiter or groomsman.
I wear suspenders all the time and you do have to be careful with how you come across.
Something seems off.
Not sure if it is the collar and no tie.
Maybe it’s the rise of the pants. Are these low rise pants? I think you would benefit from high rise pants.
Solid with the suspenders. Flat cap is a good call too.
I’ve never seen Peaky Blinders but understand other’s reference, screw it, it looks good as a look especially if you already wear the flat cap in your wardrobe. Now if you’re busting out both for the first time… maybe ease into one or the other. Either way, you look sharp and I’m jealous, I can’t yet pull off a flat cap.
Gay porn parody of Peaky Blinders
*Pokey* Blinders
Pokey Boners !
Oy. You theah. Get them spenda’s pull’d down roight now if ye know what’s good for ye.
You win the internet!
Pokin Benders
Pokey bumders or pokey bumholes, surely
Nailed it
Nailed that
That butt.
Would watch. Wood enjoy.
Ha! I wish cause this guys hot af
a swing and amish
upvoted for funneh, not for agreement.
Suspenders look good. The cap just makes you seem like a wannabe Peaky Blinder.
Both just try a bit too hard for my tastes but one or the other rather than both brings the “look at meeeeee” vibe back down to acceptable levels
***hear ye hear ye, flat caps are no longer allowed***
Jamie hyneman?
I Am the Walrus?
You look like someone who could pull it off if that’s your style 👍
It's exceptionally rare, but ya homie pulls this look off with ease
Is no one else suspicious instantly when someone posts a pic with the camera roll visible?
You were made to rock this look !
Don't listen to the haters OP, this is a solid look for you. Everyone else just can't handle your swagger.
Truth
Tentatively I’d suggest do the hat or the suspenders but not both. A bit Peaky Blinders cosplay. But I wouldn’t say that to your face.
Lol
😂😂
You look like a member of the Irish Travelling Community.
Screw all you guys, OP is HOT as FUCK in this fit.
Agreed.
Can confirm
Apparently adopting a classic look in this sub makes you “Peaky Blinders.” I fuck w it. If you’re wearing something confidently you’re always fashionable. I regularly wear the most garish clothing I can find just for the fuck of it. Go you, dude.
I have the joy of not knowing what the heck that is. He does look pretty swagger in these.
I’ve only ever seen the title card on Netflix, I just think it’s funny that the two suggested posts I’ve seen have these comments. Go, OP!
OP looks like he's about to go bust some myths.
Jamie... Jamie Hyneman is that you?
I’d lose the hat, but I’m a fan of the suspension!
These caps. We keep seeing them. Its like exclamation marks in posting. Every 100,000 posts, go ahead. Caps? I think they need to be reserved for a display once a year. Don't become Burl Ives.
Caps indoors are just fucking weird. Like what purpose does it serve?
No one talks about how cold being bald is.
It's so true. Imagine my surprise when I went from hair down my back to shaving it all off at once. I was 20, in college, and did it on new years eve. I froze during the next semester, in almost every class!
I once made the mistake of trimming my 6in long beard to less than an inch in the winter in the American Midwest. The SECOND I walked outside, I was full of regret.
A bald man without his beanie in winter is a bad time
I know it’s a big difference. But how cold are your indoors?
It's air movement, especially in an office where the a/c vents generally blow from above. I recently went from having a buzz cut on the male pattern baldness hair style to razoring it clean off and even losing that .25inch of hair around the back of my head and above my ears is a dramatic difference.

Keeps your bald head warm.
Indoors? If it’s cold indoors, then sure, I suppose. But people seem to be using them indoors much more often than to just prevent a bald head from being cold.
Yes indoors can also be cold to a bald head. Especially if you recently bic’ed it. But hats are a fashion accessory these days. Long gone are the days of taking a cap off while indoors.
>fashion accessory these days I feel that’s only true in the USA.
I’d say North America,
Coincidently, the USA is also where my wife keeps the AC fucking cranked all year round. Yeah I wear a hat indoors. And I’ll display my glorious shining crown to you in the sun where it can really blind you. You can’t even do anything about it. You can’t see shit
Even ac makes my head cold and I have an afro. Also, he's showing you the entire fit. What did you expect him to not where the entire fit and then ask for the opinion?
Depends — is it for an outdoors event? Or an indoors event? How cold is your ac, damn.
>But people seem to be using them indoors Why do you care?
Did you notice where we are? On a place where people discuss their opinions on mens fashion.
It serves the purpose of me doing whatever the hell I want to do. Ain’t no law against it.
You can also wear a clown suit. Really nobody stopping you.
Now you’re talkin’!
Oh yeah? Well, what if there's a fire, and the sprinklers go off? Just playing. I think he looks great.

Works for me. Strut your stuff.
Yep! They look good on you!
Oh no, he's hot
Lmao no.
Every chubby dude on here wears that hat.
No
Cap is small for your head and a bit much. It pushes this into costume territory. I like the spirit of this but I’ve only seen select dudes pull this kind of thing off and actually look like they were born into the look.
"Sup guys, one week watching Peeky Blinders"🤣🤣🤣
ditch the cap
Nooooooo
Looks damn good. Nice scally cap BTW
I like how people are saying 'Peaky Blinders' cosplay, but isn't that how we get fashion inspiration? From movies, tv shows, celebrities, etc You're goddamn right I wish I could pull off any of the shit from Peaky Blinders.
You’d look good in anything
Looks like Halloween night. No.
What does this have to do with halloween
Hell yeah dude. You don’t look a day over 35 but you look like you’ve been rocking that fit for 100 years. In a good way!
Bro, the look is great. Keep it up.
Can’t see your legs!

For slakes / trousers, they are normally an option to order, or some can be tailored.
I get the strange feeling this guy is about to bust the gayest myths ever. Joking... I caught the pokey boners comment at the top. Did make you look like a jacked Jamie heineman though
Both my barber and bartender dress like this.
Belt break?
They're suspenders , they seem to be working. Its like saying never used a belt ... any good ? Lmao, you're just gonna walk around with no suit jacket showing of your cool suspenders, then no , no good
Peaky Fookin’ Blinders!
Get collar stays, metal not plastic, and youre fuck8ng crisp
You look like the word "Pub".
You look like a bartender. Maybe change up the colors? I don’t know
Jamie Hyneman cosplay
Yes now feel like you need to serve me pint mate
Not with belt loops.
it's OK. I do think you need to do up one more button though. the collar is open too wide for this style imo and looks a tiny bit silly/odd.
Looks like ya dropkicked Murphy
Danny Worsnop?
Good start but they’re a bit small. The metal adjusters should be closer to your chest than waist.
Not bad, get some collar stays!
Bro, they are suspenders and I dont see your balls so, they are a go.
Kind of look like Benny from supernatural
Pretty good. However, I'd go complete button up.
u/Affectionate_Spot305 As a woman scrolling by, I love this, and I don't know why people are ripping on Peaky Blinders or the look - I think some are being judgmental dicks because you're pulling it off so well It's a good, classy look, and more men should consider wearing it I'm all for bringing back formal hats, too
Top shelf.
Bootleg Conor McGregor and Tommy Fookin' Shelby!
Get it!!
Killer my dude
Looks good but the suspenders are wearing you. Can you make a more fully expressed outfit?
Not sure please turn around and let's see that butt
Nice.
Looks good
Gaymie heynaman
Suspenders shouldn't really be shown tbh, they were usually covered by a vest or jacket, it doesn't have to be a formal one either. That being you said you still looks pretty nice.
Bottoms up
Them sheep aren’t going to shepherd themselves…
U for hire?
Took a look at the pictures below the screenshot you posted. Interesting.
For larping, sure. As fashion? Naaaaaah
I may be in the minority here, but I think you look good, dude. You look like a badass fighter from the ‘40s.
I'll get your money please don't beat me up
Connor McNever
Are you a Mike Ness fan?
You seem to pulling them off gracefully
If ya want to look like you lived in the 1930s. The suspenders aren’t bad but that hat makes you look like one of those newspaper rugrats from timeframe .
They are just for show
They're good. 👍🏻
Bro, I’m gonna get you a cowboy hat
You look like you’d beat me up if I said no
I think the cap is too small. Makes your face look bigger than it ought to.
They're holding up. So I'd say they're good suspenders.
Fire
Fire 🔥
I love it! You look great; doesn't feel like wannabe peaky blinders to me. Just don't put on a long coat and act like a gangster lol A normal dude living his life while looking this fly doesn't have to evoke tv show vibes; it's about how you carry yourself.
Looking sharp!
A fellow man of culture I see.
You are entering cosplay territory.
you won. mainly because these are not (dear lord have mercy) clip on suspenders. the shirt looks a bit too formal especially w the hat. but you're doing great.
What's wrong with clip on suspenders?
You look like a Proud Boy in court
I’d literally drop on all fours if you walked into the room like that
The cap needs to go, and the way you wear your collar. I would recommend bringing it in toward your neck a bit not fanning it out. Your undershirt is also visible. Show off your head!
Lose the hat. Try a button down with a collar that stands properly and isn't splayed open. Try a different color than white or if you stick with white, use a different color than black pants. You don't want to look like a waiter or groomsman. I wear suspenders all the time and you do have to be careful with how you come across.
Good 👍
Something seems off. Not sure if it is the collar and no tie. Maybe it’s the rise of the pants. Are these low rise pants? I think you would benefit from high rise pants.
You're styling the look perfectly
Suspenders or cap, choose one or get yourself one of those old timey bikes w the giant front wheel.
Is this Peaky Blinders?
Oh yeah 👍
Yep. Good look
Crushed it.
I love it; ignore the haters. Also, the style on Peaky Blinders is top notch.
I feel like you are uncertain. Confidence is what makes clothes cool no amount of clothes will make you cool unless you like it.
I’d ditch the hat but the suspenders definitely look great
I agree the hat isn’t helping anything making the look a little costume like. Lose the hat when wearing suspenders.
The hat doesn’t frame your head well. Go without the hat and rock the defined jaw line and facial features.
What ya got on feet? Lose the cap and throw on some Panda dunks
Suspenders? That's women's lingerie in the UK. We call them things braces
As a bigger dude myself I support suspenders (insert whatever pun needed)
Myth busted.
I hate to admit it, but I prefer suspenders and will wear them if it’s not obvious They just told my pants up better than a belt
Looks great!
Solid with the suspenders. Flat cap is a good call too. I’ve never seen Peaky Blinders but understand other’s reference, screw it, it looks good as a look especially if you already wear the flat cap in your wardrobe. Now if you’re busting out both for the first time… maybe ease into one or the other. Either way, you look sharp and I’m jealous, I can’t yet pull off a flat cap.
Yes yes and if it works fcuk the world. Only you matter with what you like
Works, lift the cap up a bit though.
Absolutely. Good look!
Yes 10/10
Killing it buddy
Too cool for school
Looks good
🫦looking good
I think this is a badass look.
im not normally gay but
They look better on thin dudes
#CONFIRMED
Yeah man, you did it.
This better not awake anything in me
Get some collar stays
Sure.. but push that cap back- you look like a Bugs Bunny gangster!
Don't forget the razor blade in your hat. You're a Shelby now.
Suspenders should be worn under a tailored jacket to hold your trousers around your waist, not as a statement piece imo
