If we're being honest, comedians are some of the worst-dressed in the entertainment industry. Many of them succumb to the ratty T-Shirt and jeans look—even if they're caked up. Funny dudes often get a free pass because it isn't their job to look good, right? Besides, they're too busy perfecting their punchlines to be bothered by things like well-tailored suits and pants that actually fit. We get it. The world is a tough crowd, and they need all the time they can to work on their craft.
That's why it's worth highlighting the guys who have both comedic chops and style. Consider these funnymen who put in the extra effort and kill it onstage, on the red carpet, in videos with Jay-Z and Kanye West (what's up Aziz Ansari?), and on the streets of New York City. They prove that while their routines and stints on TV shows and movies are sometimes pants-pissingly hilarious, their style is nothing to laugh at. From Kevin Hart to Seth Meyers, here are The Most Stylish Comedians Right Now.

10. Jack Whitehall
Where you've seen him: BBC Three's Bad Education
Jack's one of the ones to watch. He's already a comedic sensation across the pond, but he's quietly also making some noise stateside, having recently done shows here and making his talk show debut on Ellen. So you'll want to keep an eye out for him, or familiarize yourself with his jokes. And when you do, you'll be pleasantly surprised that the 25-year-old stand-up comedian has a style as sharp as his wit.
9. Danny Pudi
Where you've seen him: NBC's Community
Style-wise, Danny Pudi and his Community character Abed Nadir could not be more different. Pudi's look is clean and simple; he wears gingham and plaid shirts with not-too-skinny ties. He also pulls off solid black hoodies and ruggedly casual chambray shirts like a J. Crew model. Nadir lives in cardigans and dresses like a mathlete. It's a good thing the actor and comedian doesn't stay in character off-air.
8. Ben Schwartz
Where you've seen him: NBC's Parks and Recreation
Ben is a comedic machine. His every move as Jean-Ralphio Saperstein on Parks and Recreation has been turned into GIF after GIF. He's also one of the funniest comedians on Twitter—you can always count on him for at least one funny tweet a day. On top of that, his personal style isn't too shabby either. He also makes a pretty good poster boy for the Jewfro.
7. Jonah Hill
Where you've seen him: This Is The End
Jonah's style was in its prime in 2011, making him one of the most stylish celebrities of the year. The following year, though, we saw a different Jonah. The actor and soon-to-be father fell off and made a few style mistakes. But it does finally look like he's getting back on the right track. Lately, we've seen him get back to doing things and wearing garments that made him one of the better dressed dudes in the industry.
6. Paul Rudd
Where you've seen him: Anchorman: The Legend Continues
It's been a big year for Paul Rudd. Following his lead role in This Is 40 and cameos in Parks and Recreation, the actor is starring in the summer blockbuster This Is The End alongside a few other comedians. It's also been his year style-wise—he even landed the number eight spot on our list, the 10 Best Dressed Celebrities of the Year (Already) in January. With an Anchorman sequel on the way, Rudd's star can only continue to get hotter.
5. Joel McHale
Where you've seen him: NBC's Community
Joel McHale looks great in a suit, but what really makes him one of the more stylish comedians of the bunch is that he's proven he doesn't need a stylist. His Americana look off the air is definitely his own—leather jackets, red flannel, and khaki chinos comprise his off-duty wardrobe.
4. Seth Meyers
Where you've seen him: NBC's Saturday Night Live
Off air and on the red carpet, Seth Meyer's suit game is on point. Plus his casual look is also noteworthy. Unlike other comedians, Meyers doesn't settle for the sloppy worn-out T-Shirt and jeans combination.
3. Aziz Ansari
Where you've seen him: NBC's Parks and Recreation
Aziz told us in 2011 that Kanye West usually makes fun of what he wears. "One time I saw him and I had on a brown leather jacket. He was like, 'Ha-ha—you look like a regular dude!'" And it's true—in a good way. There isn't anything particularly flashy about his style but that's what we like about it. His look isn't completely out of reach for other regular dudes. The stand-up comedian, Twitter loudmouth, and Parks and Recreation actor frequents in leather jackets, crisp button ups, sharp Band of Outsiders suits, Moscot glasses, and Comme des Garçons Play Jack Purcell sneakers.
2. Kevin Hart
Where you've seen him: Let Me Explain
Admittedly, Kevin Hart wasn't always one of the more stylish comedians or celebrities. He rocked jeans that were too big, striped button ups that looked like this, and rhinestone T-Shirts. But he's come a long way from all that. These days, the man of the hour wears clothes that actually fit. A bonafide movie star—he just released his new film, Let Me Explain—he's often dipped in designer clothing, from Givenchy to Balenciaga. When he hosted Saturday Night Live in May, he even wore an enviable leather jacket from Saint Laurent Paris.
1. Jason Sudeikis
Where you've seen him: NBC's Saturday Night Live
Jason Sudeikis is a hilarious guy. But unlike his work, whether it's Saturday Night Live or movies he's appeared in, there's nothing funny about his personal style. Besides well-tailored suits, he's often spotted in chinos, denim jackets, and sneakers. Tons of sneakers: He even wore Air Jordan XI Breds to the Met Gala. Mr. Sudeikis is a prime example that funny guys can really have it all—a career, great style, and a beautiful fiancé.
