15 Men's Style Trends We Hope Die Forever!

About this video

The Gazette team presents fifteen men’s fashion trends they believe should be retired permanently, including super oversized clothing, distressed denim, fanny packs, bucket hats, and various other styles they argue lack historical foundation or will date poorly. The team emphasizes that developing a timeless, well-fitted style resistant to extreme trends is preferable to chasing fleeting fashion fads.

Key takeaways

  • The Gazette team argues that balance and proper fit to one’s body type matter more than following trendy silhouettes, which often date quickly and look unflattering
  • The Gazette team recommends avoiding extreme or exaggerated styles like oversized everything, sheer clothing, and ‘franken-shoes’ that mix casual and formal elements without purpose
  • The Gazette team suggests replacing problematic trends with timeless alternatives, such as leather sneakers over clunky designer shoes, messenger bags over fanny packs, and flat caps or fedoras over bucket hats
