While the clothing market for kids and women continues to boom, the global growth of menswear is crawling at just around 5% a year. Because so few men pay mind to men’s fashion, just a little bit of effort can make you stand out. If you know a few things every man should own, you can craft a unique look easily.<\/p>\n
If you’re wondering why so little space in stores is devoted to menswear, it’s because very few men care<\/a>. For most men, a standard t-shirt and jeans will do year round for any event. Not only is this a double standard, with so much expected from women, but it’s also a wasted opportunity.<\/p>\n Don’t fall into this lazy trap. Make sure you have everything on this list of 7 things every man should own and you’ll craft out a unique style for yourself.<\/p>\n So many guys own one belt that they use with every outfit. Just like socks, shirts, and pants, not every belt matches every outfit. Take a look at some of the most important colors in your closet and buy a few different belts to match those tones.<\/p>\n While plenty of guys overdo it with the whole cologne thing, there is a time and a place. Ask around to find out which scents are used by the guys you spend the most time with. Pick something totally different.<\/p>\n Smell is important to memory, so use it for special events when you’re meeting a lot of people for the first time. They’ll associate that smell with you.<\/p>\n People who are in the know can spot a cheap tie from a mile away. A couple of great ties–not those bargain basement ties either–can take your ensemble up a notch. Don’t be afraid of a loud bow tie either.<\/p>\n Bow ties are coming back in a big way.<\/p>\n While most guys have a pair of black dress shoes they roll out for special occasions, there are casual-dressy events that call for something else. A pair of brown dress shoes–or some other color if you’re the bold type–can help you hit that perfect middle ground for a classy barbecue or birthday party.<\/p>\n A great looking watch will never go out of style. Smartwatches just don’t have the same kind of gravitas as a beautifully crafted or stylish watch. Find something that matches your style and that you can wear in a business or a casual setting.<\/p>\n Buy two if you have to.<\/p>\n While your partner might like to throw on a pair of your cotton boxers while they’re lounging around the house, they’re not the underwear that turns them on<\/a>. Some high-quality, form-fitting briefs or boxer briefs make your partner excited to see you undress.<\/p>\n A guy in a suit with a college kid’s backpack always looks a little off. Find something in faux leather, suede, or waxed canvas that fits your unique style. You’ll travel a little more confidently with the right bag at your side.<\/p>\n Don’t be afraid to be thrifty when searching for most of these items. Second-hand and thrift shops will have treasures at deep discounts. While you might find something name brand at a designer basement sale, it’s those brands you might never have heard of that stand out the most.<\/p>\n1. A Few Belts<\/h2>\n
