![MEN’s FASHION: Five smart casual styles [Photos]](https://federalcharacter.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Business-Casual-Attire-for-Men-pic.jpg)
An average Nigerian would say or agree that men do not need to be stylish. “Only an unserious man would spend hours shopping clothes” most people would say.
Wealthy men are the only ones allowed to spend hours shopping for clothes, shoes and the likes “Afterall he has worked hard enough to enjoy his money this way, allow him to flex biko!”
These are the things that most men have been made to believe while growing up. It is believed that showing interest in things like these only makes a man weak.
Some men, while growing up have styling as one of their hobbies but these are stamped out before they get to adulthood by societal conventions, their environments and most importantly their friends. It is usually believed that caring about you dress is not considered macho and your desire to combine is tantamount to being feminine.
Ever wonder why there aren’t as many conversations on MEN’S FASHION or why there is so much controversies and speculations on women’s style as opposed to their male counterparts?
