I wore a denim jacket today and got some grief from a couple of friends. They said that denim jackets were a product of the 80's and should not be worn today. I don't see a lot of people wearing them but hell. places like Abercrombie sell them. What do you think, are they outdated or do you think they're aq good style to go with?
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

They're still fine as long as they aren't the ratty John Cougar Mellencamp or Bruce Springsteen kind from the 80's. In the fall definitely wear the darker colored jackets as apposed to the lighter washed ones. Vintage washes are good too. The only hardfast style rule is just not to wear them with jeans, that's very 80's.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

they are cool so long as you dont wear them with jean pants. That is a fashion faux pas in my opinion. It's too simple and obvious to be fashionable plus it looks kind played out, kind of like matching jumpsuits are. But with the right combination of pants and a shirt, the jean jacket can work wonders. Ask a sales associate when you are shopping for stuff that makes you look good

its to my understanding that the 80s stuff are coming back.
they are selling jean skirts with the lacey trim at walmart for eight bucks.
all those long shirts that chicks used to wear with those leggins with lace at the bottom are being sold again.
therefore, if this is all coming back into style in ky, al, ga, fl, mi, in.... i am sure jean jackets are too.
personally i think jean jackets look weird with slacks, they were made to go with jeans.

I used to have a jean jacket. When I was 12.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Denim jackets are casual only, so wear them with either jeans or khakis. PenKitten is right, they look wierd with anything dressy.
If you really want an all around jacket that looks good with jeans OR dress slacks, get a black leather blazer.

You can pull it off if you wear the right clothes with it. Just don't wear them with jeans that are anywhere NEAR the same shade of blue. best not to wear them with jeans period. also, get a denim jacket with some style to it, a little texture, some frayed edges, etc. Plain denim jackets look kinda bad.

From my observations.. not that I'm a fashion expert at all (I have chicks go shopping for clothes with me cause I always buy crap)
but blue jean jackets were a feature in broke back mountain weren't they? Don't wear one with blue jeans and a cowboy hat..haha

From what I've seen the black leather blazer had lived out it's life a while back. I don't even think Wiseguys wear them anymore. They're pretty much just pushed by the big box leather retailers.WaterTiger said:
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

denin jackets are extremely gay for men.
small, sleeveless denin jackets on women look extremely sexy as fvck. do yourself a favor and save some "dough ray me" and stop chasing the urban casual concept style, real men wear traditional permanent fashion. anybody that doesn't know what that means or interested in knowing what that means PM me.

all-black leather jackets are very 50s. They're kinda played out.Nighthawk said:
denim jackets work better on some people than others. I think if you look younger you can pull it off better. I sometimes wear one with a hoodie underneath. I've been told it's a good look on me.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
