In casual fashion, the dividing line between Italian and American has been strict for many years. So our proposal is to adopt a mix of two completely different styles. The specific method is to simply bring American casual style items into a sense of quality. The most useful here is the buffalo grid that symbolizes American leisure, and it is a more classic red and black square. As long as you bring it into your usual Italian-style men’s outfit, it’s a good mix of men. From the perspective of style, you can choose a shirt that can be worn as a coat. Because the shirt not only has the neat sense of a man, but also inadvertently has a little casual and natural sense, it can be easily worn in ordinary times, and it can create an unconventional and dashing image for you even at work.
The criteria selected
(1) Red× black
The basic principle of choosing a grid is a simple square. The color scheme can choose a more lively red × black. American style can also be clearly perceived from a distance.
(2) Shirt type
The American buffalo check adds a strong and rugged American flavor to the outfit of mature men, so we can choose a style that is easier to match in the plain outfit. In this way, it seems that the shirt is the most suitable item.
Basic way of dressing
In the style man’s buffalo plaid dressing matching, in fact, the most important thing is the matching of the feet. Instead of wild boots or casual sneakers, we choose black booties with a higher sense of quality. So the American rugged cowboy turned into a high-quality man.
