Krimcode is more than your average lifestyle bag<\/a> brand for modern gentleman style. The brand\u2019s story is inspired by the knight\u2019s code, one of honour and pursuit of excellence. While the traditional values of courtesy, loyalty, and dignity are the foundation of how a man should be, Krimcode<\/a> has set itself to reinvent the idea of men\u2019s lifestyle by upholding the values of a modern gentleman.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is a Modern Gentleman and Traditional Gentleman<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chivalry vs. Respect<\/h3>\n

The traditional gentleman is stuck in the concepts of holding the door for women and offering their coats to them when the temperature drops. The chivalry code is based on the courteous behaviour of a knight who treats a lady as if she were a damsel in distress. Traditional gentlemen may see this as something that needs to be preserved. However, the dynamics have shifted over the past couple of years. Letting chivalry die may be what is needed for the modern gentleman to uphold an even more important code: respect.<\/p>\n

The modern-day gentleman shows mutual respect for those around him regardless of status and gender. He sees strength in kindness and chooses leadership over asserting authority. Etiquette <\/a>is still put on high regard, however, niceties are not solely exclusive to women alone. Respect for the elders, the youth, and his fellow peers is something that the modern gentleman honours as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fighting for Glory vs. Accepting Responsibility<\/h3>\n

Just like the knight, the traditional gentleman works towards making a name for themselves in the world. They look for a stamp of approval from superiors and strive to be the envy of their peers. While a competitive nature isn\u2019t purely something to be frowned upon, the objective to rise in status solely for acceptance and praise is not enough to attain personal success.<\/p>\n

A modern gentleman\u2019s objective goes beyond valour or fame. He takes the lead and accepts responsibilities for the betterment of his team or the community around him.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Striving For Perfection vs. Reaching For Success<\/h3>\n

Perfection is a quality that leaves no room for error. This puts a great amount of pressure for men to not fail in everything they do, which may contribute to an unhealthy mindset<\/a>.\u00a0 While there is still the need for men to rise above and take charge of their own life, there is certainly a toxic aspect of constantly attaining a perfect standard.<\/p>\n

This way of thinking is something that the modern gentleman leaves behind.<\/p>\n

Instead, he envisions success and reaches for it while acknowledging the risks that he has to take. He accepts the possibility of failure and recognizes that the pitfalls are simply part of the journey towards achieving his goals.<\/p>\n

The Modern Gentleman Style<\/h2>\n

When it comes to personal style, the modern gentleman dresses to fit the part. Just as a knight never goes to battle without armour, the modern gentleman would never just put on a shirt and call it a day. What sets him apart from the everyday bloke is that he takes the time to make sure he presents himself in a way that expresses his ideals in life. He plans out his look according to the dress code<\/a>, whether it be at the office, a networking event, or a simple trip downtown.<\/p>\n

Styling yourself for success doesn\u2019t necessarily equal to wearing a suit on a daily basis. It\u2019s mixing the right buttoned-ups to pants or wearing the right amount of accessories to compliment the entire look.<\/p>\n

10 Modern Gentleman Style Quick Tips<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Dress with Purpose<\/h3>\n

Putting on clothes is not just something the modern gentleman has to do out of necessity. In order to match the driven nature that you have, you need to dress for the type of look and feel you\u2019re going for on any day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Hair. It\u2019s part of the Look<\/h3>\n

Your hair is what frames your face and is often something that people notice more often. Try to keep it sleek and clean for the most part. A messy hairdo doesn\u2019t always look good on everybody, but a clean nice cut never fails to impress anybody.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Fitted is the Way to Go<\/h3>\n

There is almost nothing less flattering than clothes twice your size. No matter what frame and build your body is working with, clothes that fit are always more flattering. But fitted doesn\u2019t always necessarily mean skin-tight. When finding clothes that fit, make sure that the shoulder seam hits the outside of your shoulder and your slacks are two fingers looser than the fit. The general rule of thumb is if it doesn\u2019t frame your body, it isn\u2019t your size.<\/p>\n
