Fashion trends come and go, but not every look earns universal praise. Some styles catch on overnight thanks to social media, celebrities, or influencers, while others leave people wondering how they became popular in the first place. From questionable haircuts to accessories that divide opinions, plenty of men’s fashion trends inspire more eye rolls than admiration. In one Reddit discussion, users shared the looks they think have overstayed their welcome, and while not everyone will agree, a few of these complaints came up again and again.
Here are 15 male fashion trends that need to end right away.
The Broccoli Hair
The curly, voluminous haircut paired with faded sides has become one of the most recognizable Gen Z styles. Reddit users say they’ve simply seen it far too many times.
The Edgar Haircut
Its sharp, straight fringe and tight fade have made the Edgar instantly recognizable. Not everyone is convinced it’s a flattering look.
Super Skinny Dress Pants
Tailored pants are one thing, but ultra-tight trousers were one of the most criticized styles. Many felt they’ve crossed the line from fitted to uncomfortable.
Dress Shoes Without Socks
Going sockless became popular years ago, but plenty of people think the trend has worn out its welcome. Comfort and practicality were common complaints.
Flat-Brim Hats Pulled Low
Oversized flat-brim caps that sit low over the ears continue to divide opinions. Many Reddit users felt they look more awkward than stylish.
Leaving the Stickers on Hats
Keeping the original stickers attached to a new cap has puzzled people for years. Many still don’t understand why anyone would leave them on.
Athletic Shoes With a Suit
Mixing formalwear with running shoes works in some settings, but many people think the combination rarely looks intentional.
Pants Worn Too Low
Sagging pants continue to spark debate decades after becoming popular. Many commenters questioned why anyone would willingly expose their underwear.
Thin Mustaches
The ultra-thin pencil mustache has made a comeback with younger generations. Not everyone believes it deserved another chance.
Tucking Sweatpants Into Socks
This trend has become especially common among younger men. Critics say it creates an unnecessarily bulky look around the ankles.
Pit Viper Sunglasses
Known for their oversized lenses and bold colors, Pit Viper sunglasses have become a recognizable trend. Reddit users thought they looked more gimmicky than cool.
Overdoing the Cologne
Fashion isn’t only about clothing. Many users complained about men wearing so much cologne that they announce themselves before entering the room.
Mullets
The modern mullet has experienced an unexpected revival. Even so, plenty of commenters said they still can’t take the hairstyle seriously.
Tiny Crossbody Bags
Originally designed for convenience, tiny crossbody bags quickly became a fashion statement. Many Reddit users felt they look more trendy than practical.
Layering Too Many Chains
A single chain can complement an outfit, but piling on several oversized necklaces was a trend many commenters said has gone too far. For them, less is definitely more.
