How Should Men Wear Rings? The Urban Gentleman Ring Guide
A few Sundays ago, one of my best friends and I had a chance to catch up over breakfast at Venkmans Restaurant in Old Fourth Ward, Atlanta. We covered the usual stuff – relationships, business, travel, our dogs, and life. As he talked I noticed the additional adornment he was swaggin'… a few rings. He was giving off low-key Lenny Kravtiz vibes. After telling me the story behind each one he asked how he should be wearing them– wondering if a few of the rings were too feminine or not. I gave him a few tips, and he gifted me a ring with Turkish origins (thanks Julian). More than anything I appreciated his thoughtfulness in personalizing his style. It's been evolving over these past few years and I could see that jewelry was going to be apart of it. So I decided to create him a personalized Ring Style Guide. Because, hey– what are friends for! I'm going to keep the generosity flowing and share his custom guide with all you Urban Gents out there.
In general, "less is more" is the rule of thumb for most things in life, especially if those "less" items are of high quality. Great fit, good materials, and good colors that match one's skin tone and look will always be the main ingredients to good style. For jewelry it's the same different.
Adding jewelry to your ensemble is another layer and creates a definite vibe. It helps tell your style story of who you modern, hipster, luxe, earthy, or even a combination.
So How Should an Urban Gentleman Wear Rings?
Here's 4 simple tips:
1. Stick with thicker bands. It's generally more masculine.
2. If you find yourself in love with a thin band rings, try to find 1-2 additional rings (at that same time), that you can stack with it. Try to coordinate their color as best as possible.
3. Wearing just one ring at a time will give you a more streamlined, well-groomed look.
4. Be unique and personable with your choices in jewelry. What's your favorite color, stone, and or symbol.

If you're hitting up a music festival, going to a fashion event, or just feel like switching it up– multiple rings will do just fine and could be fun to experiment with. The general rule for style (and life in general) is to keep it simple– so when in doubt, just wear one ring. For most of you, your only and most important ring will probably the ring you'll receive from your woman once married/partnered.
