Good morning gentlemen, When I was growing up as a kid we wore pajamas. As I got older I always thought pajamas as for kids and old men clothing. And I'm sure myself and many of us went through that commando period of sleeping all natural. Then there was the period of wearing sweat pants or shorts to bed. So one day not too long ago, I was re evaluating my life, style, wardrobe, I was looking at clothes online and I saw these men in pajamas and matching robes. My first immature impression was “ man, they moved into grandpa status at an early age.” But then for some reason I kept looking at these pajamas and robes. Then I was listening to one of the pod cast about gentleman’s sleep wear and they were talking about men’s pajamas. I kept thinking “ I can’t sleep in that I would feel constrained!” But then I was like “ Okay, I am going back to that to that negative common rationale of what everyone is doing.” So I made a decision that I was going to give it a try. So I went to Walmart and found a pair of men’s pajamas, thinking “ I’ll get a cheap set so if I don’t like them I am not out a lot of money.” So I bought a pair and that night I put them on. To my surprise I was not only comfortable but it was like I had the best sleep in a long time. Now, my first impression was “ I was just really tired.” So the next night I wore them again. And I continued to wear them and I was sleeping more comfortable at night. I then was like “ Man, this is amazing.” Now I started thinking I want to get some more but better quality pairs of pajamas and get matching robes to put on instead of the old robe that I had for years that most of the time hung up in the closet. So I I found a couple of sets in Satan and flannel for colder nights. But what I found out is this. I use to shower throw on some sweat pants and a old logo shirt ( that is what I use my old logo shirts for now) and read, lounge around the house, maybe watch a movie or something. But now after showering and putting on my pajamas and matching robe, I feel so relaxed and comfortable at home. I even have a pair of nice house slippers instead of the socks, flip flops, or bare foot method that I use to do,

Tell me Gentlemen, is there a brand of denim you guys prefer over others. After watching several of the videos put out on YouTube, it's clear I need to update my wardrobe and Levi's aren't cutting it...🤣

Even though I'd rather wear a suit in nearly every situation sometimes it's not the best gear for the job. Thus yesterday's fit Ralph Loren shirt and shoes, a pair of Levis 505's, and some old clip on suspenders that I added carabiners to for these kind of days. I think the patch job on the shirt is camouflaged pretty well

today i found myself in Budleigh Salterton, for those that don't know its a small Devon town where extremly rich londoners etc tend to go to retire. I suspect this would make for good pickings thrifting wise and i was correct. firstly the shoes, Baxters of London, hand tooled leather loafers, retail new £230, price i paid £20 then we have charles tyrwhitt black 100% cotton trousers retail new £49.99, price i paid £2.50 a tommy hilfiger tie, the yellow one, silk cotton blend retail new £27.00 price i paid £1.50 a full silk tie, the blue one, retail new £45, price i paid £3.00 total new price £341.99 , total price i paid £27

Hey guys, I wanted to share a nice moment I had. I flew to Dallas last week to pack up one of my companies laser systems that we are moving to California. I choose to dress a little nicer than usual. When we had the rigging company and carrier show up every single person walked past the facility manager and straight to me to ask questions. After introducing myself I was asked by 3 different people of it was my business. Having the presence gave me authority on a pretty chaotic day. It was quite a validating experience.
