Nowadays, it has become more acceptable for modern men to
wear jewelry around their necks. Finally, we stepped away from outdated
associations (including Mr T and wearable vacation memorabilia) and realized
that a simple chain or pendant is a stylish and very personal addition to any
outfit. answerhop
Despite what skeptics may tell you, the chain necklace, when
chosen and worn correctly, has long been a timeless masculine adornment. It is
an item that allows the user to show a bit of individuality, as well as
appreciate the finer details, and it can even have sentimental significance. computersmarketing
Here's Ape's helpful tip that highlights the
considerations and brands you need to know when it comes to choosing a
signature chain.

Buying Considerations
Equipment
David Yourman
Gold is undoubtedly the luxury option here, but with great
power comes great responsibility: you have to choose wisely to avoid straying
into "sticky" territory. So, leave the flashy oversized chains to the
rappers and go for a slimmer, more understated design. It is also wise to go
for the highest quality gold possible (think 14 karats or more) to ensure
richness and depth of color. That said, for your first foray into necklaces,
it's perfectly acceptable to go with a gold-plated sterling silver chain
(again, go 14k or more) to keep the cost down. When wearing it, look to pair
gold chains with darker or black tones to create a sophisticated contrast. hollyhealthfitness
Silver is a classic, comfortable and effortless option when
it comes to men's necklaces and should be considered your safe space. While
gold is a brighter metal that demands attention, silver is subtle and pairs
well with a traditional menswear palette of gray, navy blue, and olive green.
If longevity is important to you, opt for solid sterling silver rather than the
“silver” models, which are often cheaper to produce and of lower quality.
Size and length
Alex Orso
The thickness of the chain will determine the importance of
your new accessory. If you go for a simple design without a pendant, a
thickness of around 2-6mm and a length of between 18-22 inches (ending just
below the collarbone) is fine for most men. Pendants, on the other hand, are
often more beautiful with a slightly longer chain, between 25 and 28 inches,
ending in the middle of your chest.
Pendant
Miansai
To add a pendant or not to add a pendant? That is the
question. Those who want something classic and minimalist will avoid it, but
the question arises: why not? A pendant is an opportunity to add something
personal and intriguing, allowing for a little self-expression. There is a wide
variety of icons and symbols out there, so it's worth looking for something
that matches your taste and personality.
