How to be a Cool Santa Claus

Video Transcript

"Hello! My name is Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you today how to do a traditional Santa Claus costume as well as some edgy alternatives. We have our last incarnation of the alternative Santa. This is cooler, hipper, younger Santa. There are a couple elements of the Santa Claus costume, which are now gone. First off, we don't have a belt anymore. No, no, no. Belts are way to 19th century for the most part. This guy has his top. It's just hanging down and he's looking cool. He basically has a very, very relaxed posture. If you actually go down, he's not wearing anything like any trousers or anything. No way. This guy is in pants. This guy is an American dude. He's in pants and socks and normal shoes. That's basically all he has on. In addition to that, he still has a sequent cap. He has to have a little bit of glitter. Just a touch of flare just to look a little bit cool. Basically, the main center piece is....This young Santa Claus. His future's so bright, he has to wear shades. It is really bright up in the North Pole with the all the aroraborialis, all the reflective sun light, so this guy has sunglasses on. This is the big thing. That and a really relaxed posture, a pretty sedate expression on your face. There's no bags, no kids, no toys. You are basically a cool Santa. You're out to chill. Maybe have a martini or 2 and generally enjoy this Christmas season. "
