Honestly most men could look attractive by man standards by owning like 5 clothing items that fit properly, getting a decent haircut (even if balding -- men are allowed to be hot and bald), and exercising twice a week for about an hour. Like well into their 50s. They don't have to do skincare or get a six pack or wear three piece suits or uncomfortable shoes. Just keep your hair in line and figure out what your actually pant size it and don't be a total couch potato.

If a man is doing the above and there is no interest in him, he will get way more bang for his buck by working on his personality which is what women care much more about.

Where should men in their 40s and 50s be buying their clothes from?

Women under 30 would not give the 60 year-old version of Brad Pitt a chance without the money and status. A lot of women under 30 would not give the 60 year-old version of Brad Pitt a chance WITH the money and status.

Brad Pitt in Fight Club (Age 35). This is probably "peak" Brad. That version of Brad gets any woman he wants with or without money.

Brad Pitt in Mr. and Mrs. Smith (Age 41). That version of Brad has no problem pulling any young hottie in a gym or at a bar. Though some under 27 or so might be a bit squeamish once they learn his age.

Brad Pitt in Ocean's 13 (Age 43). Still hot.

Brad Pitt in Moneyball (Age 38) is only appealing to a small minority of younger women who don't mind an older man. And then he needs money to compensate for what he has lost physically.

I agree - the peak Brad Pitt was Fight Club, but he was also great in River Runs through it at 30. I think he's still appealing, but I'm also older. My kids think he's ancient.

This all depends on weight. I'm 38 and out of my friends' husbands, the ones who have kept their weight down still look great, better than they did in their 20s. The fat ones have already hit the wall.
