What’s Currently Fashionable for the Older Gentleman?

It’s a myth that older people should disappear from society and sit in big plush armchairs whilst eating French Fancies and watching Judge Rinder. You older guys should embrace fashion as much as any young upstart. I admit, though, it can be hard to know what to wear when you get older as some of the younger men’s fashions will look a bit silly and as if you’re trying too hard and the internet isn’t exactly filled with ‘fashions for pensioners’ articles. I thought I’d change that and give the older guys some tips on how to update their look, whether you’re 50 or 70, get out there and look stylish.

Simplicity

The key to dressing well as you age is to keep things simple. As women age they have more freedom to dress louder and outlandishly, whereas men are going to want to keep things relaxed and simple. You’re going to want to cling on to the classic looks, but keep an eye on the catwalks to add in a modern flair.

Beware of Colour

As you age your wardrobe needs to take on a more monochromatic look. You don’t want to throw out all of your colourful accessories, but you need to learn how to craft outfits based around a single colour scheme. Buy various shades of the same colour and wear them all at once. Ensure they complement each other and you’ll look simple and stylish. Of course there’s nothing stopping you placing one statement piece in the mix, if you know what you’re doing. Sites like www.formaltailor.com specialise in fancy, stylish fashions for men, so take a look at the models on the site and their selection to see what’s current.

The Little Touches

Women really know how to pull off big, loud accessories, but for men you need to be looking for something more understated. You need something that complements all outfits; that draws the eye, but doesn’t overpower the outfit. What you need is a set of beautifully crafted cufflinks or an expensive watch. There’s no point in wasting your life’s money on motorbikes and midlife crisis cars, when you can spend it on fashionable items that can also be passed down as heirlooms to your children and grandchildren.

Smart, Casual, Comfortable

Once you hit the 50 mark you’re probably tired of having to wear smart clothes that are extremely uncomfortable, whether it’s hot, heavy shirts, or tight, blister-inducing shoes. When you get older you can find clothes that are a nice mix of smart-casual and comfortable. Shoe makers, in particular, are producing hundreds of different shoe styles, that whilst comfy are also really stylish.

Knitwear

You can finally wear knitwear without the worry of people thinking you’re old … because you are. I love knitwear and I’m young. It’s so comfy and when an older gentleman wears it, it becomes very stylish too. In my mind, it must be one of the best perks of becoming older. It doesn’t matter if it’s a cardigan or a good old fashioned pullover, rock the knitwear my friend.

Trust your gut and you won’t go wrong.

Choosing A Concealed Carry Holster
There may not necessarily be such a thing as a perfect Concealed Carry Holster, but this is no reason to give up hope! With some research and careful shopping around you should be able to find a holster that meets your needs. There are many excellent holster manufacturers these days catering to a wide range of budgets and client needs. In fact, you’re more likely to have trouble picking one of the many options that are available. The last thing anyone wants is a drawer full of unused holsters, so it’s always a good thing to do a little bit of research before making a purchase. It is our goal to help you make a good decision throughout the course of this blog post and help you choose a better holster for your personal defense weapon.

Here are some of the most important factors to consider when looking for a concealed carry holster:

Comfort: Your holster needs to fit snuggly against you, and you should be able to wear it comfortably, even over extended periods. There’s no point in having a handgun for the purpose of self-defense if it becomes too uncomfortable to bother wearing. Holsters with a larger backing spread the guns weight more evenly, and tend to be a little more comfortable, although if you get hot easily, this is a little more leather/Kydex in contact with your skin.

Weapon security: Your IWB holster ought to hold your handgun safely until you choose to draw it. In the event that you are running or moving around a great deal, you ought not to need to stress over losing your weapon. Most concealed carry holsters achieve this by conforming snugly the shape of the particular handgun.

Ease of Access: Most handgun owners hope they never need to draw their weapon out of self-defense. Should the need arise, however, it is essential to be able to draw your weapons quickly and smoothly. If your gun snags in the holster or your clothing it could literally be a matter of life or death.

Low profile: The whole purpose of a concealed carry holster is the ability to be able to carry a weapon without alarming anyone who may be uneasy around them. In this way, we are able to exercise our right to bear arms and defend ourselves in a way that is considerate to the people around us. A good IWB holster is low profile and keeps your handgun close to your body.

I hope this post has helped, please think carefully before making any holster purchases. Putting some thought into the above areas should dramatically improve your chances of purchasing a great holster the first time round!

5 Manly Must-Haves for Your Home Office
When it comes to interior design, males care more about the high tech, the gadgets, and the comfort than they do about the color of window treatments or the shade of carpet that’s on the floor.

When you have a home office, you don’t have to focus on the boring interior design elements. Instead, you need to focus on what makes your office unique, exciting, and most of all, yours. Check out some of the manly must-haves for your home office.
1. Fusion Table
Relieving stress is very important when you’re working hard. A Fusion Table can be just the thing you need to create that work-life balance that’s so important. These tables act like a conference table for those important business meetings, but then they come with a surprise, such as a pool table. Once you’re done with that meeting, you can simply switch the table over and get your game on. This will help you relieve some of the stress of your work day while also helping you use your brain in another creative way. Plus, even if you’re not working and the table spends most of it time allowing you to play billiards, well that’s just fine too.
1. Retro Dry Erase Board
White boards are a great way to generate ideas and get the creative juices flowing, or they’re simply a nice location for you to write down important information. However, a plain, generic white square white board just won’t cut it when it comes to your home office. Instead, you need to invest in a dry erase board that’s more exciting and unique, such as the Retro Dry Erase Board. This little office nugget looks just like an old cassette tape. Obviously, if you were born after 1995, chances are you have no idea what it is, but for all the older working people out there, this will bring back some fun childhood memories that will add some fun and flair to your office.
1. Baseball Office Chair
Sitting in an office all day can be tedious, but when you get comfort and add it with something you love, you’ll have a chair you don’t want to leave. The Baseball Office Chair is a great addition to any manly office. Its leather material is comfortable and will allow you to work all day without any body pain. Plus, the baseball glove style will make it an accent piece and conversation starter for your office. The worn leather look will also match any type of décor in your current office, so there’s no need to redecorate just to make it work. If you are a sports fan, and if you want a chair to truly stand out, then this is a must-buy for you.
- Laser Keyboards
If you truly want your office to stand out, then you need to bring some digital fun into the mix. Your office needs a computer, which means it also needs a keyboard. But a boring old keyboard isn’t enough for your cool office. Instead, you should invest in a Laser Keyboard. These are so much more fun to use than a keyboard, and they’re so much quieter too. This will truly stand out in your office. If you bring clients there, they’ll be impressed by the gadget and the high-tech. If it’s just you in the office, you’ll have fun playing with it.
- Holographic Desk
There are so many cool office gadgets in the world today, and there’s one that’s on the verge of becoming a reality. The Holographic Desk is currently in the works of being created, and it’s something that you will need to get your hands on when it is here. Just think of how cool you’ll look while working on a holographic desk instead of a traditional one. You’ll certainly have an office that’s envied.

Victorinox I.N.O.X is Here
Imagine wearing a watch that is as tough as an army’s armored tank. This is exactly what Victorinox Swiss Army unveiled the much awaited Victorinox I.N.O.X on August 27. The watch is a celebratory product for the 130th anniversary of Victorinox. The watch imbibes all the features that are found in their line of Swiss knives of ruggedness, extreme toughness and eternal reliability. The watch went through tortures more extreme than a prisoner at a high security prison. It went through a mind-numbing 130 tests, out of which 30 were designed just to ratify that the watch is going to last a lifetime!

This Hulk of a watch can survive a 10 meter fall on a concrete surface or get trashed around in your washing machine for two hours. Not just that, it can live to see a 64 ton big a** tank run over it. It can survive a sandstorm, in case you decide to visit the Sahara. Inox watch can tell you the time even after being subject to 12 g-force which is equivalent to maximum turn in a fighter jet and more than what Apollo 16’s reentry felt like. Wait, It can also sustain temperatures ranging from -51 to +71 degrees, but we hope you never have to be in either of the condition. Inox is not just a watch but a life companion. The watch is a homage to the the rich 130 year history of the company. The word ‘Inox’ translates to ‘Stainless Steel’ in French and the watch is named aptly as the watch’s case has been stamped and machined in steel. The feature list does not end, this juggernaut has a single sealed peace dial and stamped indexes. The horns are protected and solidified by a crossbar and even, the crown is protected as is the crystal in the dial with an elevated bezel. To top it all of, it comes with a replaceable bumper protector made of silicon and nylon. The dial and strap will be available in black, khaki green and navy blue. Inox celebrates 130 years of Victorinox with 130 brutal tests to make it last at least another 130 years.
