It seems as though I get asked this question on a daily basis. Today, I will answer as to why I choose to wear virtually the same thing every day.
There are roughly five reasons as to why I choose to have a minimalist wardrobe.

I wear scrubs to work. It has saved my finances
You obviously don’t have a girl friend … LOL.
seems like a tradition among minimalists. 😀 but you got it right. we are always on point.
@Team33 girlfriend or esp a wife complicates things a lot, they usually have something in their mind and want to make you agree to their opinion by harassing, haranguing and even criticizing you at time to time, whatever their advantages may be, they surely bugger up your life big time. I’ve been married almost three years and I’ve experienced all of the above, of course there are loving and supporting wives too, maybe I need a course on how to train you wife?
I would love to find out where you buy those white shoes!
Your style seems similar to mine expect all my leggings and under wear are mainly coloured then all my jumper, jeans, coats and tops are black or black and white mostly.
Nate your a young fellow who is good looking and seems to have (observation) a very nice personality. You can get away with this. I;m older and wear the same thing every day but I wish I had a reason not to. It’s all about purpose and meaning. When your young many things look so far away. They aren’t. Life is short and happens fast but you only really see this in hindsiught., You too will have a day that you wished you had a reason tio wear soimething different, I wanted toj ask a question if you don’t mind. Are you related to Mike O’Brien. You guys don’t look the same but there;s a sumilarity.
Fast fashion is so expensive 😭
I’m a behavior therapist, and I have plenty of colorful clothes I wear at work, but outside work, I pretty much wear the same thing almost daily. Even my formal wear for work consists of black pants only
same pairs of socks is also a tip: you don’t have to look for the other because each one matches another, saving time and stress. I have learned this from other sources =)
I was just thinking the same thing!
I have 20 pairs of socks,all exactly alike.
When I get to the last 2 socks, it’s time to wash a load of socks and start over.
David Dobrik, Matt DAvelio or whatever all also do this.
Good suggestion here. I like to be efficient and thrifty. However, I also like to have a little fun. That means buying and choosing a diversity of clothing. Everyone is different.
The dislikes are from Anna Wintour and her vogue minions.
Awesome video as always..i like your idea of clothings that don’t show any logo .. feels weird seeing today’s clothings with super large logos making you like a walking billboard lol
Everyone is wasting there time watching his videos. Save time, sleep in your clothes.
I’m 🤚🏽is possible black every day not look well
Literally in the middle of a MASSIV closet clean out. I’m here for this!
Found you on Graham Stephan. Subbed.
I get mine at costco. I wear black and white shirts. I wish costco has also blue color.
Never noticed your outfits, I can’t take my eyes off your hair.
Gracias me estás ayudando mucho. 🙂
I see a red shirt and I want it painted black.
Because you’re a psychopath.
What about shoes, what do you wear and how many?
This make so much sense- the simpler the better. You inspired me to start my own channel 🤗
You got the duplicate wardrobe idea from Seinfeld right?😁
I bought some books on minimalism, actually about 30 books.
mind sharing it?
Eres muy inteligente elegiste buena calidad d vida.👍👏
Man peeing takes much time in every one of my days I’m going to start pissing my pants to reclaim my life and have more time to myself
I started wearing same colour cloths from yesterday
I wear mostly black and dark blue tee shirts, jumpers and jeans. I also hike, so lots of technical gear for all weather conditions, and a few cycling clothes. I have branded trainers (sneakers) and smart casual and smart shoes, a couple of suits (black and grey/gray), formal shirts and one tux. If you have clothes you never wear or wear rarely, maybe time to give them to charity shops. Go through your wardrobe and place clothes in categories: jeans and casual trousers (pants), casual and formal shirts, tee shirts and other casual tops, jumpers (sweaters), underwear drawer, sock drawer etc. As you wear stuff through the month, once laundered, place it on a separate rail – not back in your wardrobe – or section off your wardrobe. Anything from your wardrobe you wear, do the same thing. At the end of a month or two, you will see what you wear regularly hanging on that rail. Now open your wardrobe and see what you can easily sell or give away from the never-wear clothes in there. Fold these items and take them to the charity shop or put them on eBay. Anything you might need or need occasionally (formal clothes for special occasions, snow gear etc) can now be pushed to the back of the wardrobe or hung elsewhere. Now place all of your regular wear from the clothes rail back into your wardrobe in their various categories. You now have your perfect clothing that you know you wear all of the time. Reducing colours and styles means you can mix and match easily, so adding colour/color to your outfit is easy – a red, blue, yellow, green, purple or pink blouse will work with black pants for example. A black dress can be accessorised with any colour – scarf, bag, shoes etc. A white shirt will go with blue, grey or black jeans, and so on. Just a few items can in this way make up outfits for an entire week – they look different but are all combos of the same few colours and styles. Job done.
im a bedside nurse, have 2 uniforms
wearing black is priceless and timeless.
You are what you are. However it begins to appear your dress is borderline robotic, OCD. Boring, monotonous and “black”. I don’t believe you need to be fixated on this choice.
With all the respect you are a really smart, handsome man. Great content
i subscribed a week ago
Because everyone is doing it who wants passive income. It’s just another trend! He could easily buy same shirt with different colours. Everything goes with jeans. U don’t need to match or combine …..
This man live a simple life and I love it
I like all nate make .i love you
Time is God’s Currency, spend it well.
How many pairs of underwear do you own? And what style?
Black airforce ones are timeless I don’t know if they are comfortable
I feel like men and people who don’t live in NYC or LA can get away with this more. I am downsizing my clothing collection though. Makes life so much easier.
I highly recommend Woolite dark. Keeps your black clothes looking brand new much longer. A few dollars more expensive, but well work to preserve black/dark blue clothes. And it’s Woolite so very gentle.
*Algorithm token*
Wow I love your reasons. I wear all white, and this style makes my life easy and simple.
Saving time matters for sure, but fashion is also pretty fun and worth spending time on it for some ppl, like me🥰 life has priorities I assume bahahah
But black is timeless for sure
Great to hear I’m not the only one with terrible fashion sense! I just wear black pants and a selection of printed black t-shirts
Don’t forget your grey, they work fantastic with your blacks so you don’t look like you haven’t unlocked something.
oh word i kinda do this. black jeans with a black shirt with design on the back and logo on front right or left. sometimes with a black hoodie
I have actually worn the same clothes for over 9 years. Same shirts same colors, just have a bunch of the same thing. I love it. Great video and keep Saving Money.
Get yourself a Gorilla costume. The anti-depressive effect alone makes it worthwhile, Bud.
What is the jacket you’re wearing at the beginning of the episode?
I Prefer wearing black too and only buy black its super practical. All the other colors I have are just given to me.
I understand the idea, but honestly it’s not that hard to put on some pants, a shirt and a blazer without thinking that much 😅
But I have to admit, my fashion sense isn’t that great
i’m impressed!!!
Hey guys, today I’ve packed and sorted all my clothes to sell, give away, donate, or throwaway. Tonight I will be buying 12 identical “uniforms” for myself.
Dear Nate, if you find the time, please watch the documentary ‘The true cost’. It is about the fast fashion brands (H&M is one of them) and their real impact on…well, lots of things (environment, health, lives of people working for them etc). No pressure ofc, the only reason I am mentioning this is because I’ve heard you talking about the preserving the environment in some of your videos (I see you care about that). Greetings from Serbia 😊
I find black too harsh on most skin colours. Blue navy is a great alternative: very discreet, and goes well with all the other colours, yet it feels warmer and softer than black.
My sister’s says its better to buy clothes without brand names printed on the front buy for plain ones. This will give you the freedom of wearing it until it will overused and what’s more important. Even though how many times will or would the public releases fashion trends. Your plain shirt will never failed you unleft behind.
I could do minimalism in other stuff but NEVER with cloths…its pleasure and completely different feeling when you walk ,all dressed up with new cloths often….
I’M A GIRL BTW😅😅
Man blond of black .very pretty nate
Beautifull work👍💯
I was a fashion business major and i absolutely thrive on getting dressed up every day and changing up my look but this was an interesting watch, i respect your minimalistic ways haha
Where do you shop for best quality black shirt?
What about in summer when black attracts heat from the sun
Thanks for making this video very helpful info
Black also makes you look slim. Not an issue for you of course.
I bet the animus behind this was laziness. All the justification was figured out before making the video.
I’m being honest here but this is like the 5th time I have fallen asleep watching his videos. I like them but sometimes man….bit boring.
I admire you. the fact that you are introverted and not the typical “Chad”. You are an inspiration, you are calm and you know how to manage your finances. You will go far, you have discipline and you are cult.
‘ so ‘ is the first word you say in every video
Very cool got same clothes I had for years
Obama, Jobs, and Gates are all evil globalists.
is this the same for food? i think i spend too much time often thinking abt food, im a foodie and im not proud to say that as i bloat like hell immediately after eating outside food. ill try eating whatever my mom cooks (in india most people live with their parents) and dont even ask what shes making .
Why don’t you eat the same stuff every day? That way you don’t have to waste hours and hours thinking what to eat every day!
Henry Rollins. And myself. Look him up. Business man. Traveller. Intellectual.
Sir David Attenborough also. Pale blue shirt. Many of the greatest have a simple dress code.
NATE date me
the only stain that black shirts/pants is scared of is *cum stain*
I began shifting this way about a year and a half ago and frankly it is probably one of the best options of course I did add in a little mix of some other colors to my wardrobe but I also still have some business attire for when I do have to actually wear a suit or actually dress up as a professional but for my day-to-day business casual or casual pretty much just went down to some basics pretty much what you talk about in this video and you know there’s a lot of benefits of going that way.
Bruh I can tell how expensive your clothes are even without the logo. Wearing the same outfit every day does not look expensive
Hi Nate, I’m from Mexico and I really like your mindset, also I can improve my English watching your videos, te mando mucho amor
Where the hoodie from, with the zip on the front pocket?
I tried saving time by wearing nothing at all. Now I have soooooo much time, because I’m in jail 🙂
my mom said that fashion are “go around”. I mean old is gold. so now I wear some of my mom cloth for working. I believe nothing is wrong in fashion as long as you comfortable with it. Nice video!
If I wear solid colors, after a while I think I will get depressed😒
I stick with my polos and jeans, saves a lot of money 👍
What if you’re a minimalist and your partner isn’t? 😂 Guess gotta find a balance 🤦🏻♀️
If you’re going to buy one shirt, don’t put your money in H&M! 🙁 I’d rather put in a more eco-friendly company
Black is the best color!
Ever since COVID, T-shirts and sweats have become the norm. So many people out of work, or simply working from home, there’s no need to really give a shit anymore.
You got swag😎 you can’t go wrong with black!
Do a “day in my life” video!!
Dificult with woman 😢😢😢
Thanks
Just say you have no style. Plenty of people get stylish clothes at the goodwill
I used to dress like Hank Hill every day, literally had a months worth of white tees and would toss them all in the wash together. Saved a lot of time and cuffed a lot of peggies.
I often watch nate’s vidio, idk why. But i think, it’s kinda interesting. Even i always download as well🤣
This is why I love UNIFORMS!!!❤️
Where’s the bracelet from?
hello can you tell me where can i find this kind of clothe
5 mins a day thinking about what to wear tomorow?!!!
i spend like an hour a day thinkin about that.
I started wearing all black years ago..black jeans black boots black shirts and a beanie everyday but I’ve always been alt./ metal head type
“Like I used to buy wrangler jeans from Walmart 😂
