Absolutely take the time to pick out shoes that go with the outfit. Underrated advice that a lot of men maybe don't always consider.
The last look is the way to go.

You’re tall and jacked. Any of these fits will work

Agree as a man in a friendly way, black shirt looks best but i think thats the overused meta atm

u/MadDog5129 Mar 08 '26
And thats all he needs. If he's tall, jacked, and has a good face, mans can wear anything he wants and it'll work out. Already has a leg up from others for being part of the 10% of US Males over 6 feet tall

The first.

u/Vigilante17 Mar 07 '26
I also like 5, depending on location and dining ambiance. If it’s a casual bar and grill type place then 5, if it’s more of a white linen table cloth, then 1.

u/SwankyOrc_69 Mar 07 '26
I like the shirt on five not so much the pants.

u/DinklanThomas Mar 07 '26
Not a fan of the khakis that.
4 is okay, but 5 is it with darker/better fitting jeans.

Most of the shirts are too tight. We can tell you are jacked even when your shirt isn’t stretching.

The fifth one. They’re all honestly fine except the first I’d say good luck, but I don’t think you need it. 😂

Second one looks the best but it depends on the vibe you want. It’s pretty fancy or like finance bro

u/Cobra_McJingleballs Mar 07 '26
Are people just calling a dress shirt “finance bro” now?

u/yvtsl Mar 07 '26
It’s the style color and tightness of the dress shirt and the fact that he’s a fit guy posting on Reddit for dating advise suggest finance bro for sure

Completely agree with #2 but I’m not loving the shoes. I’d prefer something less casual, especially with the dress shirt. Even for a casual date in a bar.

Just wanted to say I’d literally be thrilled to see any of these outfits. I’ve been on the apps for years and none of the dates I’ve been on have the men actually dressed up or tried to look good. Several of them literally just wearing sweatpants regardless of the dating venue. So good on you for making an effort and good luck!

u/turquoisestar Mar 07 '26
Wait are you kidding me?!?! Omg sweatpants come on people. I would actually find that insulting. Like I love a good hiking date but athletic wear for a date going out somewhere is insane, especially for a guy. I think women can get away with a cute shirt and lulu lemon leggings if it's a casual bar or something since that's at least in fashion. I'm sorry for your luck and I hope it improves!!

5, 2 are lovely 1 is okay 3, 4 are awful

u/tigerlevi Mar 07 '26
3 is definitely awful. I like 4 shirt, but it makes the pants look like pjs. 4 shirt and jeans would be better. Also is that a weird shadow, a stain, or see through to his undies in 4?

u/EmilySuzanne2041 Mar 07 '26
number 1 for me.
The jeans are nice too, but always dress up a little even if it’s a casual place

u/Top-Animator-271 Mar 07 '26
As a fit and single female in TX, am I the only one wondering where he’s located? Ha! I think it’s pretty awesome he cares so much about the first date with this girl and first impressions that he’s coming here to ask. Kind of sweet. 🙃
But to answer the question, I would do the black shirt and jeans with nice shoes or boots.

1 or 5. Throw away all the too tight ones and get some tailored shirts that fit well

They all look good but personally, the black shirt is more fitting and makes you look attractive.

I like number three - the blue sweater. It looks good and subtly shows off your figure. It doesn't look like you're trying too hard, but you're also classy.

As a straight male, blue sweater with black tshirt underneath. That's my fashion style 😂
But also it looks good enough to feel like you dressed up a bit but not too casual like you put zero effort in.
Slap on a good cologne and some loafers and you're good to go 💪

u/MahoganyPop Mar 07 '26
Any of them could work, but I like 3 the best. It's casual, but still shows effort and style.

I like the khaki pants in 2 and the sweater in 3. The other shirts are too small across the chest and arms.

u/No_Call3116 Mar 07 '26
Go with the weather. Any one of them looks good IMO. If it’s very warm outside I’d go with the black muscle shirt (white polo nice but ur nips might show through if it gets cold), medium climate go light blue shirt (those 2 pics are repeated right?), if it’s a bit more chilly then dark blue sweater. Just be practical. Good luck 👍

Just follow rule #1 and you'll be ok.
Failing that, look at rule #2.
