10 Suit Mistakes That Make You Look Stupid | How To Buy A Suit | RMRS

About this video

Centeno outlines ten common mistakes men make when buying and wearing suits, including ignoring gut feelings about fit, misunderstanding what constitutes a suit, failing to remove tack stitching and tags, buying for the wrong occasion, prioritizing fashion over function, and neglecting complementary grooming and accessories. He emphasizes that fit is paramount and that a suit should be worn regularly to build comfort and confidence.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues that trusting your instinctive reaction when trying on a suit is critical—if it doesn’t make you feel like a million bucks, don’t buy it
• Centeno recommends removing tack stitching from lapels, breast pocket, and vents, but leaving it on functional pockets to maintain appearance, and always remove sleeve tags
• Centeno contends that fit in the shoulders, chest, and stomach is the most important factor, and that functional, classic suits in neutral colors will remain stylish longer than trendy fashion suits
• Centeno suggests practicing wearing your suit at home to build comfort and avoid feeling like you’re wearing a costume, and ensuring all complementary pieces—shirt, shoes, grooming—are polished for a complete look
