How you style a chain, the meaning it has to you, and how it reflects your personality can be highly individualized. We’ve put together a guide to help you determine which of the best gold chains for men is right for you.

Benefits

You might wonder why you don’t see many people wearing gold plated chains every day. More often, you’ll see them on athletes, actors, rappers, singers, directors, and other celebrities. These people are comfortable being in the spotlight. They’re not afraid to show off their fashion, lifestyle, and personality.

A lot of people worry if wearing a pure men's gold chain will look tacky on them. This problem is usually the result of buying a low-quality chain, not knowing your style, and not putting in the effort to find one that suits you.

If you buy men’s gold chain necklaces, look for established, quality vendors like ItsHot, who sell some of the finest gold chains in NYC.

Choosing the right quality men's gold chain for your neck can supply a number of benefits:

• Gold lasts forever—you can always pass it down or sell it
• Men's gold chains can be symbolic (of your journey, affiliation, achievements, etc)
• Can show off your religious faith (such as rosary chains)
• Shows your hard work (since you can afford one)
• Shows you’re self-assured and confident
• Shows off your knowledge of style
• Symbolizes social status

As far back as the Egyptians and monarchies, men’s gold chains have been popular with the rich and famous as a way to flaunt their confidence and style. Pulling off a men’s gold link chain is a timeless statement in men’s fashion.

Choosing a Style

When deciding what style works best for you, you want to consider gold color, karats, thickness, and type of chain. At ItsHot, we offer several colors and varieties of gold: yellow gold, white gold, rose gold, and even gold with a black rhodium finish with black diamonds. We also offer long designer chains in other real precious metals: platinum, sterling silver, and black rhodium sterling silver.

How To Choose a Gold Type 

Generally, warmer gold tones (yellow, rose gold) tend to match skin tones that are olive or darker. The higher the karats of yellow gold, such as in 14K solid gold franco chains, the more warm the color. Mixing yellow and white gold layered chains is another stylish way to accentuate gold. If you have a pale complexion, white gold may work better with your skin tone, though 10K gold chainsfor men in other colors may also work. If you’ve got the right button-down shirt and attitude, don’t be afraid to channel your inner Scarface or Tony Sporano with a yellow gold curb-link chain.

Styles

Choosing the right style involves picturing what will go with your wardrobe. You may want a bold, chunky chain, like Kanye West and David Bekham wear. Or perhaps you’re leaning towards more subtle expensive men's gold chains, as seen on Timothée Chalamet. You can add diversity to your look by layering several chains, like Kevin Durant when he’s off the court. Here are some of the different styles. You can always make a sleek style more flashy by choosing a thicker chain, or making a classic chain subtle by choosing a thinner size. You can browse our men’s chain necklaces by width, and we also offer customizable chain lengths.
