This is not to say that they should do away with these wardrobe items if they have them or are planning to buy them, it simply means they should learn to wear and pair them better and not be indifferent about how they look.

These wears are good in themselves, but what makes them ugly wears is how and what men pair them with.

Let us take a look at some of these ugly wears below:

1. Crocs on any outfit:

Consider getting sneakers and regular shoes for your wardrobe as a guy and do away with wearing Crocs all the time. It is more annoying when you dress up in a cool outfit that requires suiting footwear, but all you do is beat it down with Crocs.

In case you are not aware, Crocs are casual shoes. Left to many fashionistas, it belongs to the bin if it involves stepping outside your house. This means they don’t blend with everything and should only be worn right inside the house.

On the brighter side, Crocs are best suited for pairing with sweatpants and shorts; any other combination gives off an air of immaturity and indifference to style.

2. Baseball cap on native attire:

Wearing a baseball cap with traditional attire is a mistake. A big one. It disrupts the harmony of the entire outfit and drags down the entire look.

The only headwear that complements traditional attire are the Igbo red caps known as Opku Ozo, the Hausa Kufi cap, and the Yoruba Fila. Everything else simply doesn’t fit and transforms you into a fashion danger.

But most guys would argue this with all their might. It is not their fault anyway – they do not really know what fashion is and so they just wear whatever looks good to them.

3. Half shoes or Mules:

One baffling fashion trend is the half-shoe or mule, the footwear that appears to be in a state of identity crisis. It seems as if anyone wearing this footwear cannot decide whether they want to wear a shoe or a slippers.

In front, it poses as a complete shoe, only to expose the wearer’s heel at the back.

4. Unbuttoned shirt that reveals inner round-neck:

You can layer a jacket over a round-neck tee, but not a shirt. If you have chosen to wear a round-neck shirt underneath your button-up shirt, you don’t have to show it off. This fashion trend needs to be thrown away and forgotten.

This applies to the flannel and lumberjack shirts as well. Sporting an unbuttoned shirt that displays your inner round neck makes you appear as if you’ve never left high school. But if you did leave high school, your dress sense should level up with you.

5. Sneakers on suit and native attire:

How most men wear this combo, love it, and feel good in it is what most individuals would never understand. It is termed a juvenile trend but most Nigerian men love it, especially when it is a white sneakers.

The end result is that these men look funny in their outfits. Instead of wearing sneakers on suits of native wear, consider buying proper shoes and loafers to pair well with your suits and traditional outfits.
