Most people associate TikTok with bizarre challenges, dance routines, and outlandish memes. So, what usefulness could TikTok provide in the world of menswear?
If you browse the app, you may be surprised by what you find. TikTok’s menswear hashtag has over 1.5 billion views and is powered by a small community of users who share videos with inspirational fits, helpful recommendations, and, of course, memes. Here are a few that are worth following:

Ethan Wong: @ethanmwong
We’ve featured Ethan Wong at Put This On before, so it’s no surprise that we’re big fans of his TikTok. He posts fit-check videos, where he walks you through the various pieces he’s wearing. He’s also not afraid to look back on his style and share “cringeworthy” photos of himself from ten years ago. His account is full of inspiration, and the style journey video, embedded above, gives viewers an appreciation for how much one can hone and perfect their style over time.

Wisdom Kaye: @wisdm8
Wisdom Kaye, the 21-year-old whose rise and large following on the platform landed him a contract with IMG Models, is a must-see for menswear TikTok. Wisdom’s outfits are more of a mix of 70’s aesthetics and surrealism, but Put This On readers can still find inspiration in his videos. Wisdom frequently participates in challenges and designs outfits based on themes ranging from time periods to cartoon characters. The outfits are not only stylish, but they also serve as reminders to have fun and enjoy what we wear.

3Sixteen: @3Sixteen_
It’s not just people who run great TikTok accounts. When it comes to brands, 3Sixteen stands out from the crowd. Not only does the brand feature new drops, detailed looks into their products, and fits from employees, but they also share other interests such as music, books, movies, and food recommendations. It’s the closest thing to being in the store without actually being there.
