It has been a pleasure to work with Kirby Allison as an ambassador for Carmina Shoemaker, certainly is a prescriber in the footwear industry and that he recommends our shoes is a whole compliment. We hope to collaborate with Kirby as many times as possible, great job as always and thank you very much. Your content is wonderful and brings a lot of value to our customers. Eternally grateful. ❤
I have been thinking about a trip to New York to visit the Carmina Store, but I think a trip next year to Mallorca is more in order. A visit to the boutique in Palma is definitely on the agenda. A thank you to Mr. Allison and Carmina Shoemakers for a very informative and detailed video.
Pay attention people. Kirby shows appreciation to others, kindness and humility, in a professional manner. Thank you for teaching how to be proper in 2023.
I love how your whole outfit was born out of your travels. Sat at home you probably wouldn’t have picked that outfit. It shows the benefits of travelling and broadening your horizons.
He is a class act. He reminds me of a young Reagan, good looking smart but down to earth and friendly to all. I’m glad he’s representing our country so well. #TX 🇺🇸
Thank you Kirby for getting us behind the doors of the factory and thank you everyone at Carmina for putting passion, love and craftmanship into those amazing shoes!
You are just moving form clarity to clarity Kirby. Carmina is a marvelous brand and this video just did the family and their heritage so much justice. Owning more than ten pairs of Carminas myself I can truly testify to their quality. Thanks again for all this beautiful content Kirby!
now, you're wearing that cream suit you thrifted with Max in this video. I love the elegance of that suit!! Well out of your comfort zone, sure, but this is maybe one of your best and being at self I've noticed. You've outdone yourself this time in term of elegance, video production, and facilitating the conversation/interviews!
My Grandson is in Madrid, Spain he there with his Collage studying . I told him to go to the Carmina store and for his Birthday I would buy him a pair of Carmina shoes. I sure hope he goes and finds a pair he likes. Thanks a lot My Grandson will be 21 in Spain.
I just ordered a pair of Meermin's black cap toe oxfords which will be the first pair of quality shoes that I would own. One day, I hope to get up to Carmina's level. Due to this channel and others, I cannot longer look at department stores shoes. I am going down the rabbit hole, but I like it. Kirby, thank you for showcasing the craftmanship and passion that goes into quality products.
I love the Carmina shoes. I own 2 pairs of Oxford, but I didn't realize the amount of work it takes to build a pair of shoes. I have a new appreciation. Great video journal.
I am becoming a new customer of Carmina. Thank you Kirby! I love these videos of very nice products that I would not know if it was not for these videos. One of my favorite saying is “I am a man of simple taste, simply satisfied with the very best.”
The attention to detail of the videos is just magnificent! The edition is elegant, the advertising well timed, the colours elegant yet vibrant, the time stamps are precise and descriptive, the music is perfectly suited, the shots feel natural yet fabulous. If everything Kirby does has this amount of dedication I am sure his products must be superb!
Puchased my first pair of Carminas at that Palma store, the same week that Kirby visited. Hope you had a great time with your family there, Kirby! And thanks to Ms. Yatsutko from Carmina for the great style advice!
They are one of my favorite shoes as they have so many models and styles to chose from and well made shoes. Really love this documentary style video and tour of the Carmina factory. It is so interesting watching a quality pair of shoes being made and just how many people had an actual hand in making that shoe along the line. I will certainly be having a pair of Carmina Shoes made next year as it’s not in my 2022 budget, so in 2023 and I’ve already had the exact shoe picked out to be made.
Killer suit Kirby! Nice to see you out of your comfort zone of dark bleus and greys and not dropping $10K on a suit and looking fabulous! Welcome to earth and great 'oxygen'! LOL. BTW I have the exact same design and color in a vintage Allen Edmond 'Ridgefield' model!
I give an applaud to all the hard working hands that created and create these pieces of amazing shoes. Thank you Kirby for bringing light to these amazing shoe makers, My only regret when I visited Majorca is not paying a visit and buying a pair of these shoes there. Though I will be ordering now online ! Thank You
Best channel on RUclips. Great to have it in the background, great to pay attention too, great to initiate discussions, I reach for Kirby after a long day, if he has a video up.
It was a real pleasure to watch this. Thanks! Great soundtrack. This company makes awesome shoes worth every penny. I had my second major knee surgery last year and once I could walk again, I got rid of all my old shoes and started wearing only goodyear welted shoes. I have now got about 15 pairs of really nice shoes. They are all very comfortable. I have steel toe work boots, hunting boots, combat boots, dress boots, all goodyear welted and top quality. Thorogoods, Danners, Allen Edmonds, Carmina, and Sanders. All these are 100% boots. After my surgeries I only wear boots, except for some Gucci loafers every blue moon. I end up mainly wearing the Carminas because they are so nice. Im the kind of guy where I can get in 30,000+ steps, while Im at work. Ill then change into some Carminas, and get in another 30,000 steps that night, and me and my feet will feel great the whole time, and the next day, to do it again. I take care of my Carminas periodically with Saphir products, then brush them after every wear, so they pretty much always look better than brand new. I cant believe I ever wasted money on air force ones. No way you are speedwalking 15 miles in those, after a hard day of work. These Carminas are a much better value. And in America, nobody anywhere, ever, has nicely polished handmade shoes, so wearing them gives you strange abilities lol, especially if you have a good haircut and dress right. The three pairs of carminas I have are great, and differ from the pair in this video in that each pair I own is able to be worn with widely varying outfits. Everything from jeans to suits or even tuxedos. The shoes in this video dont have such range. I own three pairs and 100% recommend them except for the caveat that after having 4 ligaments and tendons replaced in one knee (sofar) i have no business ever wearing leather soles. Too slippery, especially in cold weather. Luckily Carmina has a very reasonable (but slow) resole program with the shipping included in the price (150-250 euro i believe). I own: -Black Box Calf Chelsea boots (80216) with leather soles and the Rain last (very very nice shape). Im sending these back to Mallorca for more 4wd/4x4 type soles like the Tremontana soles. Leather soles feel broken in immediately, like butter. These are the most comfortable shoes ive ever had. I have to resole them for safety though, which may change their characteristics. They look great in everything from jeans to a tuxedo. -Brown horsehide horween Chromexcel Derby boots (80179) with itsHide combat soles and with Soller last. This leather looks amazing all the time, both beat up or newly polished. These took forever to break in. Much, much longer than normal leather and vibram or leather or silver soles. Great once broken in. Look great in everything from jeans to a suit. -black box calf Balmoral boots (80092) in Forest last with silver soles. These shoes just mean business in every way. Extremely comfortable for long walks. My favourite shoes ever. Look great in everything from jeans to a tuxedo. Next pair will hopefully be the first i custom order in person (not online), in NYC in 2023. I want brown Chromexcel Balmoral boots in Rain last with Silver soles, and caps. I want one of those purple boxes. I only have red ones. I expect that if I continue my super low maintenance shoe care regime using top quality saphir products, and i keep getting in house resoles, it will keep these shoes looking great for 15+ years. I look fresh af literally all the time. The cost per wear is very low, especially on my joints. LOL. Thanks for reading. Hopefully this helps convince somebody else who has had terrible injuries to upgrade their shoe collection.
Kirby makes some of us subscribers feel like we're along on his many journeys & for ah minute we may forget our day to day stress....Thank You very much 😊
Thank you Kirby I have been wanting to know more about this shoemaker and the beautifully crafted shoes on their site. I know some online retailers are outsourcing to China, so I am delighted to confirm that Carmina is making shoes entirely in-house with the core traditions of bespoke which lends itself to individuality and self expression.
Funny how custom made shoes and suits share so many similarities with all the different parts of each cut by various employees and then come together at the end into something that is remarkable!
Great video Kirby! I’ve been getting my Carminas from Madrid and now NYC but seeing this video brings validation to the heritage and quality I’ve been always told by my elders.
By far, your best video Kirby. Congrats. As you said it, there are much more steps than I anticipated. Video is of high quality and the music does pairs fantastically. BTW, nice selection of spectators, they match perfectly with the suit and the ambiance.
Wow, fantastic. Great quality. I don’t like spectators too much, but I would like to buy one of those; they are an incredible beautiful shoes. Hopefully, some day I could travel to the beautiful island of Mallorca. I would like to go to the main store to buy a few pairs of Carmina. Excellent quality at a reasonable price. I love the fact it is a family oriented business creating jobs for the community and at the same producing excellent beautiful shoes. In my opinion, the art of well dressing starts by wearing good quality welted shoes. Thanks a lot Kirby Allison for bringing such a great content. FELICIDADES CARMINA, you guys are great, keep up the good work.
Kirby, I think you just made the best documentary yet seen on the internet, explaining the details of making a fine shoe, while encouraging us all now to order a pair of Carminas! Of course you must now make a video showing how to polish those spectators without getting stain on the canvas 😂. The choice of music on your recent productions is superb, and would it be possible to include the chosen tracks in the notes, so we can listen to them on our favourite music streaming channels?
Carmina make fantastic shoes and have lovely staff in their stores. I really love the brand. The online customer service from the main office needs improvement however. I am only putting this out there as I love the brand and want it to grow and succeed.
Yesterday i smoked my first cigar it was a Davidoff NO.2 i really loved it! i just want to say thanks to kirby for making such amazing videos and inspire me to get more into this kind of livestyle
Carmina is a great company, with inviting boutiques, with helpful and knowledgeable employees. I have been to their stores in NYC and Paris. Very impressive.
This reminds me of Baretta's beautiful factory. The contrast of old buildings and clean new equipment seems to be an Italian thing. In the American Midwest we have alot of these old tall ceiling factorys but they mostly sit abandoned.
It's like falling into a vat of delicious chocolate. I would love a pair. It's nice to see that as poorly as so many people are dressing these days, there are at least a lot of people subscribing to Kirby's channel. We really need to return to elevating how we dress, as classic and well-made clothes and shoes will also last for years and not go out of style. After watching all of the steps involved, plus the huge investment in equipment and training, I have no doubt these shoes are worth the money you pay. Wow!
Kirby, I am more and more impressed by the filmmaking quality of your videos. I think this is quite unique for a fashion youtuber. Many thanks for hours of fun and knowledge - and keep the great stuff coming!
Thanks for posting this wonderful video! I have several pairs of AE and am building up my Carmina collection. In comparing AE factory tour videos to this video, one observation that is very obvious is that Carmina craftsmen and craftswomen take their time!! It just goes to show that close to perfection is worth the wait. Thanks KA and Carmina for this collaboration!!
10/10 video and 10/10 shoes! It is amazing to think that some of the people in this video probably had a hand in making my pair of Carminas. I huge thank you to them for making such beautiful, well made shoes!
Thanks to Kirby, I got to find out about Carmina. I went and visited the NY store this week and experienced shows for the first time in my life. The fit and finish of Carmina shows truly punch above Allen Edmonds and Alden.
Another great upload Kirby I find I can’t help myself. I own 3 pairs of C&J’s, I have a pair of Trickers on my bucket list and now I’m going to have to add a pair of Carmina’s to the list. Carmina looks a great company, the ladies are really skilled. All the best from the UK.
Carmina and Carmina working at their namesake Carmina, you gotta love it. Those Spectators match the suit beautifully. Funny little moment, the guy on the lasting machine giving us a great view of a pair of Skechers in the middle of the Carmina factory.
It has been a pleasure to work with Kirby Allison as an ambassador for Carmina Shoemaker, certainly is a prescriber in the footwear industry and that he recommends our shoes is a whole compliment.

You got some real hot women working over there, lord have mercy
It's lovely to see how many people you employ locally. That is always a big factor for me in purchases.
I have been thinking about a trip to New York to visit the Carmina Store, but I think a trip next year to Mallorca is more in order. A visit to the boutique in Palma is definitely on the agenda.
A thank you to Mr. Allison and Carmina Shoemakers for a very informative and detailed video.
I just ordered boots through the custom order system. Can't wait to get them.
Your whole family represented themselves wonderfully. Your English was impeccable and easily understood, thank you for access to your operation.
Nice to see him wearing that suit from the episode with max at the vintage shop
Lovely bit of contingency ☺️
Looks like a million bucks
the second I saw the thumbnail I was like "hold up"
Just chucked it on and went to Mallorca on the next flight, that good of a suit.
@@jackwarren1345 Me too!
Pay attention people. Kirby shows appreciation to others, kindness and humility, in a professional manner. Thank you for teaching how to be proper in 2023.
No one is doing what Kirby is doing on RUclips. love it.
I love how your whole outfit was born out of your travels. Sat at home you probably wouldn’t have picked that outfit. It shows the benefits of travelling and broadening your horizons.
I love how you greeted the grand father in spanish, true class Kirby as always.
He is a class act. He reminds me of a young Reagan, good looking smart but down to earth and friendly to all. I’m glad he’s representing our country so well. #TX 🇺🇸
@William Tell cope
this is by far one of your best videos . loved coming from work , make a French 75 cocktail and simply enjoy an hour of outstanding content .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Kirby for getting us behind the doors of the factory and thank you everyone at Carmina for putting passion, love and craftmanship into those amazing shoes!

Ten?! 😆 You must love shoes so much. Can't blame you though. These things are a work of art!
One of Kirbys best videos. He feels so much more at ease than in other videos where he tries to hard. Nice job here, and amazing shoe brand
now, you're wearing that cream suit you thrifted with Max in this video.
I love the elegance of that suit!! Well out of your comfort zone, sure, but this is maybe one of your best and being at self I've noticed.
You've outdone yourself this time in term of elegance, video production, and facilitating the conversation/interviews!
The mixture of traditional and modern techniques was sublime. The laser etching especially!
My Grandson is in Madrid, Spain he there with his Collage studying . I told him to go to the Carmina store and for his Birthday I would buy him a pair of Carmina shoes. I sure hope he goes and finds a pair he likes. Thanks a lot My Grandson will be 21 in Spain.
Kirby, I like the follow through from the last vintage shopping episode in London. Nice to see you wearing rightly in this episode. Nice transition!
I just ordered a pair of Meermin's black cap toe oxfords which will be the first pair of quality shoes that I would own. One day, I hope to get up to Carmina's level. Due to this channel and others, I cannot longer look at department stores shoes. I am going down the rabbit hole, but I like it.

Kirby went all the way to Majorca to “see” his shoes being made so he wouldn’t have to wait the three months like I do 😭
😂 It's good to be the King i mean Kirby.
And at the end of the video he asked for donations to help fund his next overseas trip. Yeah ! My cheque is in the mail.
@@andregreen8040 it's paid by the clients
Well done, Kirby. A pleasure to meet you at the Carmina store last week! From one Longhorn to another, all the best.
As a musician, I couldn't be happier to notice such a good and apropiate music background. Great shoes by a great brand owned by such nice people.
Wow, got chills when Kirby was presented with that gem of a shoe. Custom shoes should feel so good!!! Gorgeous!
No doubt, this is one of a masterpiece video on RUclips.. bravo Kirby & Carmina 👏
The attention to detail of the videos is just magnificent! The edition is elegant, the advertising well timed, the colours elegant yet vibrant, the time stamps are precise and descriptive, the music is perfectly suited, the shots feel natural yet fabulous. If everything Kirby does has this amount of dedication I am sure his products must be superb!
You are right. So much detail, such as the flamenco music on the background, just the right style of music, typical of the Balearic islands.😂
Puchased my first pair of Carminas at that Palma store, the same week that Kirby visited. Hope you had a great time with your family there, Kirby! And thanks to Ms. Yatsutko from Carmina for the great style advice!
The smiles on their faces make me wanna move to Palma
love the panama suit and spectator shoes - makes Kirby look like a 1930s gangster
Carmina has a lovely smile.
I thoroughly enjoyed this post. I have watched it three times since you posted it . THANK YOU
Great music. Great video. Beautiful shoes!
Best produced factory tour I've ever seen. You should make this a series.
My family is fim Spain, Rendon and this has been one of the best videos I've ever seen about this legendary factory 😊 amazing
Ooooh what a delight on a saturday evening!
❤️❤️💚💚👍👍, kirby for once words fail me, a pleasure to watch your spectators being constructed, the quality of the finishing stages is second to none.

Great video! Everybody knows Carmina's a great brand, but Kirby shows exactly why it is and by whom.
I recognize that awesome suit. Enjoyed the "thrifting" episode with Max. This Carmina video was exceptional!
Funny how custom made shoes and suits share so many similarities with all the different parts of each cut by various employees and then come together at the end into something that is remarkable!
Great video Kirby! I’ve been getting my Carminas from Madrid and now NYC but seeing this video brings validation to the heritage and quality I’ve been always told by my elders.
I purchased a pair of custom made Carmina loafers for my wedding this past spring. I could not be happier with them! Well worth the $700+ I spent.
You are happy about what, the shoes or your wife?

I love my Carmina penny loafers. The quality to price is exceptional. Can't wait to enter another store and buy something else.
The beautiful shoes are nice but wow the 2 Carmina ladies are beautiful, soo classy and well dressed
Carmina make fantastic shoes and have lovely staff in their stores. I really love the brand. The online customer service from the main office needs improvement however. I am only putting this out there as I love the brand and want it to grow and succeed.

Loved the video, loved the suit, loved the Spectators, and LOVED the music...perfect!
All your footage is brilliant but seriously this was off the charts. The production was unbelievable and very interesting, well done Kirby.
I just purchased my first pair of Carmina shoes: suede loafers in navy blue. Amazing quality for the price and they’re stunning to look at!!
I am so Impressed - respect
Amazing video, simply so nice! The music, the photograph, everything.
Carmina is a great company, with inviting boutiques, with helpful and knowledgeable employees. I have been to their stores in NYC and Paris. Very impressive.
This reminds me of Baretta's beautiful factory. The contrast of old buildings and clean new equipment seems to be an Italian thing. In the American Midwest we have alot of these old tall ceiling factorys but they mostly sit abandoned.
WOW Kirby!! This was so good. Your ensemble and the spectators, just impeccable.
Amazing shoe and pattern selection Mr. Allison. Great footage and awsome work by the Carmina company. Cheers!
Quality behind everything you do is insane. Keep up the work
Beautiful photography and perfect soundtrack. And people wonder why I watch RUclips more than TV…
It's like falling into a vat of delicious chocolate. I would love a pair.

High quality content, which is quite rare these days. Thank you Kirby.
Superb video! I’ve seen and am familiar with the shoemaking process, and I think this was one of the best about the process I’ve seen. Stupendous!! 👏🏼
Once again you absolutely nailed it. Wow!! Your production team is second to none.
I’m going to Carmina next week in Mallorca and am enjoying this video immensely
Kirby, I am more and more impressed by the filmmaking quality of your videos. I think this is quite unique for a fashion youtuber. Many thanks for hours of fun and knowledge - and keep the great stuff coming!
haaaaah! fashion? this is not that! its classic style!
Excellent video. Carmina is a fantastic brand. This was a great watch.
I love it when a whole outfit comes together.

16:25 Kirby with the casual bilingual flex.
Thats a bilingual flex. He said two phrases….
@@TheBassAngler1 You could almost call it casual.
The shoes are an excellent compliment to your suit, such great quality and craftsmanship.
Best factory tour for any product I've ever seen on RUclips
This was amazing! Really enjoyed being able to get an inside tour, guided by the family that owns it.
Absolutely amazing to be able to go along with the journey of watching an outstanding pair of shoes being made...
Passion for the craft!
Carmina are one the most comfortable Shoes in my entire collection...............Price Quality Value is unmatched.
Great video and interview . Like your videos. Greetings from Norway!
Absolutely fascinating!
Carmina and Carmina working at their namesake Carmina, you gotta love it. Those Spectators match the suit beautifully. Funny little moment, the guy on the lasting machine giving us a great view of a pair of Skechers in the middle of the Carmina factory.
