Welcome to The Modest Man®, the best men’s “fashion” blog for guys who want to look sharp and feel confident.
I say “fashion” because, around here, we don’t really focus on trends, designer clothing or runway shows.
Instead, we’re all about helping men build a timeless, versatile wardrobe that’s ready for any season or occasion.
This page will help you get the most out of this site. If it’s your first time here, here’s what you should do right now:
#1: DOWNLOAD THESE FREE GUIDES
I’ve put some of my best content into three free PDF guides (over 40 pages total):

#3: GET INSPIRED
Good artists copy, but great artists steal. If you need some outfit inspiration, feel free to borrow these looks:
👉🏻 A Sortable Collection of Men’s Outfit Ideas
On that page, you can filter by season or formality to find the perfect getup. Then click on an individual outfit to shop the look!
#3: JOIN THE (PRIVATE) CLUB
By joining our private Facebook group, you’ll get access to hundreds of like-minded men who can give you instant feedback on outfits or recent purchases.
It’s just nice to have a support network of guys who want to look and feel their best. There’s really no other group like this on the Internet.
You’ll even get access to a few industry experts – other bloggers, clothes makers, etc. Click here to join the group today.
You have to be approved by me or another moderator, but we’ll make sure it happens ASAP.
#4: GIVE YOURSELF A HIGH FIVE
It’s okay to care about your appearance. It’s okay to try.
The fact that you’re reading this means that you’re way ahead of most guys (who are taught that it’s not cool to care about appearance).
I’m so glad to be a part of your style journey. Welcome aboard!
