‘Old School Drip’: Steve Harvey Schools Fans on How He Keeps His Suits So Sharp

Comedian Steve Harvey is apparently one of the best dressed men in Hollywood.

The 63-year-old game show host made a name for himself decades ago after he started wearing pressed suits for the remainder of his career. On Monday, Harvey took to Instagram and showed fans his secret for keeping his suit jackets crisp and wrinkle-free.

The “Family Feud” host showed his apparent stylist how to steam and iron his jacket with a few touches. He told him, “You young. I ironed all my clothes. I ain’t have no stylist, I ain’t have nothing. I had to do all of this, man. I didn’t have no money for no cleaning bill, I ain’t have none of that.”

Harvey also added in his caption, “This one (iron) right here will help you rid of those cat eyes…….Roll the towel up…Place it inside the jacket at the shoulder…Hit your steam(not too hot)… QUICK TOUCH!.. Gone.”

Fans ate up the “Kings of Comedy” veteran’s post.

“When your father trying to teach something new but you don’t get it anyway 😂 look at this DRIP!!! Old school drip ❤️🔥”

“OG always dropping game! 💯 this is ole school technique Steve Harvey you are the world’s best dresser hands down and the coolest brother on the planet.”

“Unk what you doing is showing these young men exactly what they should be doing…. My uncle showed me how to iron and clean suits and cloths 💪🏾”

“Shiitt go head and teach em some Mr. Harvey love your seasoned tips! Your the man 🤘🏼. Take it back!”

Harvey, whose entire look began to change since marrying his belle Marjorie Harvey in 2007, currently has a suit line which is available at Sears, Belk, Kohls and a few other stores. The comedian no longer wears linen suits, an fans always compliment him on his designer styles.

“Ain’t nobody up there with Steve when it comes to the suits. My man still doing it big”

“Show em how it’s done unc you know you a sharp fellow”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
