I love the touch of humor in your videos! For me the things I wish I bought earlier are good shoes and boots. Working in a casual environment it has always been just sneakers, but in the past year I started getting nice footwear and it has been a lot of fun. It has even inspired me to “dress up” the rest of my wardrobe.
I’ve been wanting attires that are tough enough for construction work but look as decent as at least business casual ever since I was in middle school 😂
Lighting: wish I had discovered sooner 40 Watt bulbs for table lamps instead of 100 Watt. Lower intensity lights create pools of light around table lamps rather than illuminating the entire room. Much cosier/intimate looking in the evening.
Sad thing about where I live. We have many spare the air days so we cannot do any wood burning. California doesn’t allow any “normal” things unfortunately
I grew up in a house with a real fireplace. I miss it! So cozy in winter, and so much fun burning all of my school work page by page at the end of each school year, haha.
Watching this video is half learning about all these cool things I would like to invest in when the time (and money) comes, and half constantly hearing John Mulaney say "THIS IS THE HEIGHT OF LUXURY" on repeat in my head. 🤣💖
I have a friend who also has a love of clothing and a massive wardrobe but limited space so he bought one of those automated dry-cleaning conveyor deals to hang all of his clothes on since he had limited closet space but a very large laundry room / basement.
I too use Bourgeat pans, excellent quality. A tip - Bourgeat make excellent non-stick pans which are useful for some things. And once the non-stick coating wears off they become effectively cast iron pans that will last another two decades.
The bespoke shoes are a game-changer. I love mine. But, I've found that the more shoes you have made, the better it gets. As the shoemaker learns more about your feet - my fourth pair is so much better than the first pair!
The one thing i really wish I had bought sooner? Offset nuts and camelots. I'm glad you made a list of what YOU really do wish you had bought sooner and didn't seem to interject audience appeal too much into the list. Much more informative on far more levels this way. Thank you!
Carbon steel has a few major advantages: It's lighter, comes to temperature faster, and isn't as brittle as cast iron, so if the pan warps, it's more likely to be fixable. And unlike most modern cast iron, carbon steel pans usually come with a smooth surface.
Everyone who can pick up a tool and use it needs a belt or something similar. I personally utilize bib overalls and a toolbelt as needed. The bib overalls are extremely comfortable and when made from good denim or duck cotton, are the right tool for manual jobs.
An open fire is great until you need to clean it out the next morning and set it for the following night :-) Point 23. Hire someone to clean out the fireplace ashes every day.
also, house of antique hardware sells nice looking ones, i can not speak for the quality, but they atleast look like they are fairly good quality. they also have dimmer versions (from looking at it, the top button can rotate to allow the light to dim.
Your house looks sick!!! Proper cool👍👍👍 I thought the picture of the closet was yours, till you explained, if you end up with a closet like that, I'll be so jealous 😄😄😄😄
@@lisbetsoda4874 The 23rd thing he should get is a haircut that doesn't emphasize his ears and the unphotogenic shape of his head. Also, the camera is shooting up at him and this distorts what isn't distorted by the haircut.
Peloton bikes are great for cardio but it's only a small part of keeping fit. For instance if one doesn't incorporate weight lifting/training you'll always be trying to lose weight or stay trim with the same size fuel burning "motor". Gaining muscle is a crucial part in overall physical fitness. If you have bigger muscles you will burn more calories not only at the gym but even when your simply moving throughout your day. Look up the fitness/weight loss pyramid , cardio is the least most important ingredient.
What about a Gentleman's attire while working in the yard or in the garage? I own a gentleman's coupe, and want to look the part while toiling and wrenching. Suggestions?
Those safari jackets are actually based on the M-51 Jackets used by the US military during the Korean War, which were replaced during Vietnam by the iconic M-65, even though the M-65 wasn’t as common as the Jungle Fatigues
What brand would you recommend for Shawl Collar Cardigans with patch pockets? Would love to find affordable ones that are Cotton or lighter Wool but most of the options I find use mostly Polyester. Excellent work as always gents!
@@matthewblainey4254 Thanks for your comment. Yes absolutely! The options I see are either mostly Polyester or has a baggy fit. Hopefully someone can recommend a decent brand as I stated. You are not an infidel. I'm sure you will find what your looking for as well. Best of luck!
Always been a Safari Jacket fan, even before I made the conscious choice effort to better my outward appearance about 12 years ago (Regular haircuts, trimmer physique, dressing better) A Safari Jacket was among the first purchases I made, perhaps after a pair of brown Chukka Boots and a Swiss made watch.

Have you done a review of jeans? A program of when gentlemen wear jeans.. And when cowboy boots are the way to go. I was just looking at the Delta 68 jeans online. But think I'd prefer the boot cut vintage Lee or Levis. Have you never reached the point where you just had to have a Filson? And an old American Pendleton board shirt is the very finest and most comfortable garment a man can own. That northwestern wool just lays into the body like a second skin, feels like growing fur.
We certainly have - there's several videos on our channel about jeans, but to get you started, here's our review on the Levi 501s: www.gentlemansgazette.com/levis-jeans-review/?
From England here! If you like Worcester sauce you should try Henderson’s Relish from Sheffield. A regional sauce like Worcester sauce but stronger and better 😉
You're right about good microphones - because I struggled with some of your earlier videos (I am old and a bit deaf: or deaf and a bit old); but - do stop that music, snare drum or whatever, in the background of your films, because it's a real nuisance if you have hearing issues; now and then, I hear the beat, see your lips move, but have to rely on lip reading to make any sense of what you're saying: and as you have an accent, this can be a bit of a fight. Incidentally, I'd love a closet for my clothes: I have a very old mahogany wardrobe, a fine piece of furniture, but it's full to capacity: and that's without a dinner suit, which I don't have any more because - no dinners! Or I'm not invited to them if they're taking place. Takes you right back to peer groups: I should join one - then: I can buy a new dinner suit!
I mountain bike steep chunky single track with punishing uphills 2x a week, season pass snow skier, surf, etc. All of these require great cardio. I own a peloton. Peloton is awesome, would still buy it if it were 2x price. If you just buy it and think it will make you fit, nope. If you actually use it as a training tool you will find it allows extra workouts between sports and it has made all of them better, feel much stronger.
i personally like hybrid fireplaces/stoves, i.e. fireplaces that can run on either wood or natural gas/propane. i also prefer free standing wood stoves over traditional fireplaces, mainly because they are more efficient, and i like the look better (also easier to put in to a house than a fireplace.)
Can you upload an new video about rings for men? There is one already but it’s still hard to buy a good silver ring as a man. An source would be great. Also the gentleman gazette rings aren’t in the online store ..
While I know you have a solid grip on the upper crust of fashion, I appreciated the comment you made in this video about suits. "That if you like it and the material, then you hit the jackpot!" I think for the rest of us 95% or lower income scalers we enjoy this show because it teaches all things but just find your Ft Belvidere a bit steep. Trust me quality is not the issue but you could expand your segments on items like pinky rings and cufflinks if you offered them in stainless steel. Of course I probably am referring to mostly high buffed or chrome look. For example, like yourself, I love lapus which is one of the less expensive gemstones to enjoy. I had a jeweler make me a pinky ring for a very reasonable sum. Now don't touch the "Socks!!!" Leave that alone and the pocket squares are fine too. Talk to your business coach about "Economies of scale" and you will get on the track with this newer concept. Food for thought, thank you for listening. Rich
A true gentleman has a P Diddy style shrimping vessel but he doesn't eat citrus fruit on voyages because vitamin c is for peasants like tennis socks. :)
Just a word, android auto can be a little buggy to live with. Waze in particular tends to be twitchy with google now, google now proper is very temperamental and frankly android isn't very good at wifi to cellular transitions which can affect app performance. Now if you're a google person because that is just where you land for reasons personal to you (for me its customization of the ui which apple doesn't allow) then it certainly is a nice bonus. That said the experience is very google. That is, not polished.
It looks like you have great taste in pianos as well. Mason & Hamlins are my favorites with a very full rich tone and no treble harshness like some other brands I can think of. An American classic.
someone looked at quilted horse jackets and thought "that does look comfy"
I would love to see a roomtour of your house.

Your shade is also important.
Even better if they are dimmable and smart!
The bonus is that they lower the electricity bill.

2:33 you may think the suit is just a gag for the video, but fun fact: that's actually Raphael's workout attire!
thats one way to get a good sweat in.

Raphael, you have a tool belt, and the tools to go with (I hope); build out your own closet. The big box home improvement stores sell the kits.
That toolbelt hasn't seen much work hahaha. Looks like fresh off the shelf Raphael! :D
I have a friend who also has a love of clothing and a massive wardrobe but limited space so he bought one of those automated dry-cleaning conveyor deals to hang all of his clothes on since he had limited closet space but a very large laundry room / basement.

You're supposed to season cast-iron pans the same way, so I hear. Though I'm guessing carbon-steel is still better.
Yes, there is a reason restaurants use carbon steel pans, not cast iron.
@@gentlemansgazette If you season and oil cast iron, it is no more work to take care of. And seasoning it is easy. There are lots of videos on how to.
Carbon steel has a few major advantages: It's lighter, comes to temperature faster, and isn't as brittle as cast iron, so if the pan warps, it's more likely to be fixable. And unlike most modern cast iron, carbon steel pans usually come with a smooth surface.

Looking forward to your closet makeover 👍
Those safari jackets have nice big pockets to fit your nitro express rounds in them 😉
that indirect lighting makes a huge difference. You should show a process on how to do it
An open fire is great until you need to clean it out the next morning and set it for the following night :-) Point 23. Hire someone to clean out the fireplace ashes every day.
Well, that gave me plenty food for thought.
Thanks to wonderful discerning gentlemen of the Gentleman's Gazette!
One of my favorite marinades, particularly with Venison but also great with steak, is 1/3 worchestire, 1/3 Soy Sauce and 1/3 pineapple juice
Try adding a little bit of oyster sauce too. You might thank me.
@@MedievalSolutions I’ve never actually heard of oyster sauce. I’ll see if I can find some though
I personally went the other way with light switches in my house. Classic Accents sells vrry nice vintage-styled push button swithches.
also, house of antique hardware sells nice looking ones, i can not speak for the quality, but they atleast look like they are fairly good quality.
they also have dimmer versions (from looking at it, the top button can rotate to allow the light to dim.

Meanwhile me: *trying not to get distracted by Sven's new haircut
It's too short and makes his head egg shaped. I know he wants to look neat but it emphasizes his ears and egg shaped.

Holy cow congrats on the house!
Man, his house though👀
Great video! Great things to think about to get. Thanks!
If you can care for a carbon steel pan properly you can do the same for cast iron; which provides natural iron to your diet. Happy cooking and 2022!

Now I'm wondering what type of outfits you guys wear to the gym. I imagine Preston wearing collared button sports shirts and polo pants
What is the best iron to purchase?
That Peloton bike is working good sir, looking slim!
Hey i watched your videos for some time. Would be interested in a video for blue collar worker's when you cant wear suits to work, if jeans are best ?

Great video, thanks. By the way, you must never leave the house, or have anyone over, with a sweatband on your head. It looks hilarious...lol.
Already looking forward to the wardrobe video:)
WOW! New hair cut. Looks good.
Amazing outfit at the end of the video. I could wear that often.
Hint: you're supposed to season cast iron the way you season carbon steel.
Can we wear shirt button down collar with french cuff? Is it okay or against the rule book of gentlemen style
a real fireplace is the best.

Woven leathers are the "running shoe" of formal footwear
I found this video and shared it with my dad, he told me this video is basically like Dad guide buy book
Excellent information. Thank you for the informative experience.
Beautiful tie😁
It is a beautiful tie but doesn't belong with a darker blue, boldly striped shirt. The shirt consumes it.
Safari Jacket is an excellent classy replacement for cargo pants/shorts.
Can you recommend a bespoke shoe maker? ✅
The only person in the world who is still still happy he bought a Peloton. At least you didn't buy shares in them too 😁
I mountain bike steep chunky single track with punishing uphills 2x a week, season pass snow skier, surf, etc. All of these require great cardio. I own a peloton.

@@surfeymcsurfer That's like saying a Ferrari must be good value because it goes over 50mph and looks nice.
If you bought stock in 2019 you're still up I guess...
Use your own bike, a stationary trainer and Zwift - different to Peloton but better for real fitness
LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!!
Can you recommend a good company that makes cardigans?
This is so great!
Nice video... Who is the violinist in the oil painting?
how about a few nice watches e.g. a dress watch such as a JLC reverso..
also, how about some high quality cooking knives!

What safari is that Raphael is wearing? I want one too...
Being German, I want to ask, how would you compare Worchestershire sauce to Maggi Würze?
You must have a very big house to have 3 fireplaces. Also great video
