Can anyone here that has spent a lot of time in Colombia, or currently lives there tell me about how potentially bad of an idea it is to where really nice clothes (no jewelry or flashing iPhone though, etc) in Zona Rosa, Medellin or elsewhere in Colombia? I ask because part of my game is wearing really sharp and badass business casual clothes (really nice collar shit, slacks, dress shoes). I get at least 10 times the attention, respect, and responses from women when dressed like this, and would like to utilize it in Colombia. I will wear a money belt and not carry a phone I care about losing. Getting mugged doesn't scare me if it doesn't result in physical harm (I know not to resist and instead be calm and cooperative), neither does losing some cash (I'll keep a bit in my pocket). I just don't want to end up f'ed up bad or dead. I know my question is unusual, but I really am curious. And I don't mind attracting gold diggers. I am good at beating them at their own game. Lastly, I should point out that I am white and have light hair. I certainly would be conspicuous while is intentional for chicas, but not scumbags. I think I know the answer to my own question here, but I don't want to accept it. I really want to be able to wear my sick as business clothes down there. Even just in short bursts while gaming chicks. Please advise if you feel you can provide me with good guidance on this situation.

No problem. However, most people in Lleras just keep to jeans + T-shirt. People will think you just got out of a meeting or something.

Ive seen this style a lot more in Bogota than Medellin, but if thats your steez, go for it. You will definitely stabd out which is the pount. Even in upscale places, many Colombian dudes look like slobs or Jersey Shore douchebags

You'll be fine. I always rocked my Gucci glasses, an expensive dress shirts and pants and dress shoes. Also rocked my watch and whatever the hell else of value I wanted to rock. Never had any problems. Hell, I even got robbed and the cat didn't even take my watch.

The most common outfit for a Colombian man: Nike shocks, rat tail, fanny pack.
