      @@JGStone the whole shoe is like $6k and the shoe in this video is made from “second grade leather” as the guy said. It’s essentially perfectly fine leather that’s not 100% perfect. They’re whole brand is about making the PERFECT shoe so it makes sense they won’t use it. And obviously for that price they have the budget to do the whole process of making a scrap shoe prototype before making the real shoe

    Would you consider making a video comparing the shoe creasing patterns of your shoes that are bespoke and ready to wear as well as shoe that is slightly too big/too small. I think it would make for a really informative video as well as highlighting the major advantage of bespoke.

    Good video, a bit theatrical in parts obviously, I think it's worth highlighting that bespoke shoes are nothing like bespoke suits :
    You can get a bespoke suit as a one off (special occasion etc) and it'll be fabulous - whereas bespoke shoes are, in my view, an *alternative* to even high end ready made shoes - the first pair may well be a disappointment as the fit adjusts (no guarantees !) however it'll be worth it - you'll have less pairs taking up space and amazing foot-ware 2:1 or 2.5:1 price is a decent proxy for price vs high end RTW (eg Edward Green etc)
    Also it can take 6 mths plus for delivery end to end - so plan ahead !

    Here's a question: Wouldn't it be more effective and time efficient to just make a cast of his feet? I mean, I'm sure the fitting is not free nor is the pair of shoes that he butchered for these alterations. If you simply made a cast of your feet he would be able to make you an absolutely exact fit and then be able to continue using the cast for any future pairs you purchase.
    Before anybody says it, I'm aware that a big aspect of all of these luxury services is the "experience" and showing a customer that you're willing to take the time to outline every unique aspect of their foot and what you can do to accommodate but to also destroy a perfectly good pair of shoes in the process is quite the statement. I'm just trying to be a realist here.

Also mine probably don't cost as nearly as much as these. I would have to guess 2k+ for the fully bespoke models where as i paid $700 and the fit on them is 90-95% perfect.

    It looks like he should have a platform for the customer to be on during the fitting that is about 4' off the floor so he doesn't have to do the fittings kneeling & laying on the floor. It would make the process much more dignified for the shoemaker. If the platform was 6'x20' it would allow adequate room for a chair as well as room for the customer to walk around to get a feeling of the shoe. It would also be large enough for two or three people to be fitted at the same time. Even with modern technology there is not a better way to examine the way a shoe is fitting than to cut it up & have the customer put it on again.

    How do you choose which sock weight to use for your fitting? Lightweight hosiery or wool sock? How does one plan for four seasons use?

    This guy needs a weekly podcast. He’s got it all, not only knows WTF he’s doing, he’s very personable and calm. Like that guys that sells private jets has a show. I’d rather watch this than the normal Kardashian type garbage on corporate media.

    This, gentlemen, is NOT your average pair of shows from walmart or tesco. This is how shoes was made in the day before mass production became a thing... And nobody behold... shoes like this lasted longer, better quality, and better for the environment!

    I’m a 55year old man, I’ve always loved my clothes, my shoe of choice is barker; but to have a pair of bespoke shoes made must be beautiful, topped off with a bespoke suit must make you feel a million dollars. Kirby I must say looks so elegant, 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

      Its easy when youre rich. Kirby doesnt give a fuck about the poor (less than 5k a month)

      My lifestyle wouldn’t warrant a bespoke suit, I’m just saying the experience would be nice, but I will say you don’t have to be rich to have pride in your appearance, I’m a watch guy, tbf I suppose the money I’ve just spent on my new Rolex would have bought me a bespoke suit and shoes, out of the 3, I know what will get worn the most: 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

    Watching him cut up the shoe literally hurt to watch! By the way, they sell 3-D scanning tools for under $2000 USD, some for considerably less. Small CNC routers cost under $2000 USD also. Why not just scan a foot and router a wooden last. OR, 3-D print a last? Definitely faster all around and absolutely bespoke!

    If I had to cut a beautiful pair of shoes at least I would use some kind of carboard laminated with leather. It looks such a pity to cut those fine shoes apart. :(

    And you do that slicing up of shoes for each coustomer ??? These shoes must be very expensive if they must have a perfect fit on the first fitting.
