With women’s fashion, it’s an easy one with pockets and for some probably less
sheer/thin or tight-fitting clothing depending on their preferences, but for
men…? What would you like to see done differently in men’s fashion?

The whole assumption that a person is more professional because they chose the professional uniform is absolutely stupid. If Donald Trump, Hitler, MLK, Putin, and your friendly neighborhood lawyer wear the same outfit, then that outfit says nothing.
Underrated? It's my favorite part! An Indian friend of mine got married 10 years ago. I still have very fond memories of it! It was beautiful and so much fun!
Hmm, I feel like the unisex backpack/slingbag may be what more folks are converging on. Purses increasingly only make sense for formal occasions, imo. Regardless, whatever one calls them, I tend to agree!
Plus, if cargo pants are so loathed, only makes sense to make some kinda bag to lug odds & ends the norm.
I bought a sling backpack a few years ago and love it. I wanted to carry my keys, phone charger, wallet, cell phone, extra batteries for my hearing aid, band-aids, tissues, etc, but pockets only give you so much storage. Cram them full of too much stuff and they tend to bulge in very unsightly ways.
With my sling, I can carry everything I need without stuffing my pockets. It's very convenient.
The only downside is that my wife insists on calling it my "purse." Why can't men carry around a bag to contain things? Women get purses. Why are men confined to whatever we can cram into our pockets?
My guy, have you tried carrying a power bank in the leg pocket of your cargos?! It is far less comfortable than having it in a cross body bag or fanny pack
I'd love to see men have more freedom to personalise their fashion with colour and cut. As it is, men's fashion tends to be cookie cutter with the odd personal flourish, and it should be more than that
Really though, isn't this kind of the overpowered win over women's fashion? They may not be "cool" but they maximize pockets while letting you stay cool.
Be the change you want to see in the world. Cargo pants are great. They carry my CARGO. Best thing to make the leap from military to civilian clothing in the last thirty years.
Asking bc I always found them super uncomfortable, esp if I use those pockets for anything with a little weight. Even something like a kids pacifier would annoy me rubbing against my thigh/knee so I realize they’re just not for me but just curious
Can’t stand them personally either. Decided to start wearing shorts that stop above my knee and I’m so much more comfortable and look a lot nicer too. Wife loves them. Nothing else really matters.
I occasionally see guys around here wearing skirts in summer. Not super common though admittedly. Or those harem pants that are really on the line between pants and skirt.
Oh yeah, and why is it that sneakers aren't an acceptable shoe in certain situations? I mean sure, if they are some gaudy fluorescent green shoes, they would look out of place in most work environments. But why is a monochromatic black or brown sneaker any different than a dress shoe?
People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.
In the western US dress sneakers are what office workers wear. They’re a lot more comfortable and the styles are great. Regular dress shoes make you look stuffy and no one out here likes that.
I wish I had more opportunities to wear my 3-story-tall armored mechanical exoskeleton with gatling gun arms in public. Just never seem to get invited to the right parties.
lol I was going to suggest getting rid of what the dude before me said everyone should wear. Most dudes just look the same in their drab, monochrome monkey suits. I don't feel like men have fashion. Just utilitarian clothing that has no personality.
Money belts are coming back, but not the old style. We're wearing it across the chest, like a bag. They're even making money belts with more of an adjustable belt so that you can use however you want/feel better. Basically, becomes a bag.
I really wish it would be more mainstream. I always wore shorts with more pockets because fuck I didn't like holding shit in my hand. Recently, shorts with pockets haven't really been a thing, so I gave the money belt a chance and I really like its utility. Nothing inside my short pockets anymore.
TIL there's another variant on (and name for?) the ol' fanny pack. Huh! Ngl I don't know what I'd use the thinner ones for (besides, well, money), but I dig the idea!
Yeah, I wear joggers everyday around the house, even in summer. But there's not a long of tight pants for men besides joggers. Which is a pity, because I had no idea how comfortable tight, stretchable pants and shirts were until my wife started buying them for me. There's just something about them that feels good.
Plus they show my ass really well, which means my wife is constantly swatting it as I go by.
It gets worse for swimwear. Jammers are seen as something only competitive swimmers wear, while speedos are stereotyped as something only gay men wear.
Suits that actually fit. Does nobody know anymore how a man in a suit is supposed to look? They all think they're so fashionable, instead they look like they walked with a paper suit through a steam bath. Awful.
I'd have men wear more turtlenecks, and tighter jeans. Doesn't need to be TIGHT, just not the insanely baggy styles that have been around for the past 20 years. And turtlenecks... they have the effect of making a guy's shoulders look broader. People underestimate the effect of shoulders on appearance as a whole, in both men and women. If you're a guy with rounded or somewhat narrower shoulders, turtlenecks are your best friend. You can also wear slightly wide-cut t-shirts, or sweaters that have a looser fit at the top or with a logo/detail right underneath where your neck ends.
