A masterclass of impressive tailoring knowledge crammed into 12 mins 40 secs. 👍👍Well worth watching again...with a notepad and pen. More please!
Thank you so much for your kind words and enthusiasm! We're thrilled to hear that you found our video insightful.
Awesome insights as usual
Thank you for the kind comment.
Helpful as always. I wanted to get either a biscuit or navy unstructured jacket last year at a reasonable price but couldn’t find one anywhere.
Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you found the video helpful.
Wonderful segment! Chris is the Style King. Love his wardrobe. I got my first real job at age 15. It required a suit. My Dad, who commuted to NYC every day, took me to one of NY's best department stores and said, "Wear tropical wool. You'll stay cool in the summer and warm in winter." Now a much older man living in Florida, I still follow that sage advice. Happy to wear wool slacks in summer.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful experience!
Your father was a stylish man. Thanks for sharing.
I’m so glad you mentioned and showed an example of wool seersucker. Reading stories involving men in “seersucker suits” always gave me the wrong image of a man absurdly dressed in a white and color striped suit. I could never take those characters seriously. Now I know and these characters make so much more sense!
Thank you for sharing!
I would love to be one of Modoo''s "private customers", but you probably have to be a billionaire to qualify.
Ha ha. Not at all.
Thanks for sharing, keep it up doing in the same way 👏
Thank you so much for your encouraging words.
Great video and very informative!! Really enjoyed watching it!!! Always look forward to watching your videos.
Thank you so much for your kind words and enthusiasm!
5 stars. Brilliant!
@11.30 SHARP!!!!
Thank you for the comment!
Beautifully explained
Thank you so much.
Great video very well done.
Thank you very much!
I didn’t know where to ask this question, so I am asking in this latest video release.
What’s the best method to remove creases from silk squares? Also, what’s the best method of storage for my squares?
Thank you.
Hi @JRehak1962. The easiest way to remove creases is to give your squares an iron. The safe option is to put a tea towel over the top, turn the steam off (you're more likely to damage the silk with water rather than heat), and set the iron to a medium to high heat. If the creases are quite stubborn, just keep turning the heat up till they come out. We directly iron our squares all the time and never have an issue, but start with a tea towel first.
We actually made a short on how to store you pocket squares which you can see on the link below!

Thanks so much Chris. I purchased my first summer suit last year, in Solaro wool. As you say the fabric is relatively heavy but i found it very cool on my wedding day in mid summer. Your excellent video explains why
Thank you.
I love Solaro and had a suit made a few years back.
Sadly, Solaro does not love me and it did not suit my colouring.
Great video, thanks.
Wool is fantastic in summer.
Thanks for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Chris are you making tailoring at Rampley now? ... I used to love your clothes at Chester Barrie. So sad to see that business end. You made some great clothes there.
Hi. Thank you for your kind comments. I am making style guide videos for Rampley & Co. and I hope you enjoy them.
@@chrismodoo6563 Will make sure to watch)
Thanks!
Welcome!
What makes a wool fabric a "Traveller" Fabric ? That is a wool or wool blend that is highly wrinkle resistant, comfortable, and wear resistant for business trips ? Is it the weave? 4 or 6 ply ? heavier weight ? Lower S100 numbers, a bit of spandex? or some nano or 21 micron thing ? I see VBC sells both "supersonic" and 4&6 ply weaves.
Thanks for the comment. "Traveller" fabric is crafted from high-twist, open-weave wool, which has a cool wear and a springy texture. This special weave not only makes them resistant to wrinkles but also incredibly breathable. The porous nature of the weave contributes to the jacket's durability, making it perfect for business trips where comfort and resilience are key.
The VBC 4ply and 6ply are both great cloths. My DB blazer I wear with gold buttons is made in it. I also have a lot of trousers in their 4ply. Really nice fabrics made with 21micron wool but quite heavy for modern tastes. But they tailor a dream and I find them ideal for travel.
I think that could be a nice topic for a video. What makes a travel cloth a travel cloth? What do you say Rampley & Co?
And…21 micron is another way of saying “super 80s”…confused yet? 😊
"Wool is not a summer fabric" . Perhaps he has never been in a place of 42 Celsius degrees with 90% of relative humidity.
To answer your question, I have been outside of the U.K. to the Middle East, Africa and Asia but the data you describe is quite extreme. Where is this place?
@chrismodoo6563 Thank you for opening this lovely discussion. Africa and Asia are huge continents. I'm pretty sure that in some places of Asia there is similar weather during summer. The place I mention is Veracruz, Veracruz, Mexico. This week weather forecast is an average between 25-34 Celsius degrees and 74% of rel humidity. Dew point at 21 C. In summer, during heatwave (hot humid air coming from equator) that can last a week, you can get to 42C and 90% rel humidity. Average conditions at summer are 38 C with 80% rel humidity.
An impressive outfit might be to wear a bespoke full linen guayabera during the day or a full linen jacket at the evening and a Panama Hat.
@@cesaryanezfernandez9799 ...thank you. Yes, Africa and Asia are both huge continents. I have never had the pleasure to visit Mexico but I did purchase some guayaberas in Havana, Cuba some years ago. (I would love a bespoke linen version). I also like linen tailoring (Irish or French variety) but when the weather is particularly hot and humid I prefer something lightweight so would wear the wool jacket in the video. I think one of the images of me wearing it was in Florence where humidity is quite high.
but no disagreement on the Panama hat.
@@chrismodoo6563 I'll try it when I get the chance. Let's see how many hours I can support without getting dehydrated
if your suit/blazer covers your buttocks, it’s too long.it doesn’t look smart.The time for that is over. Brutal truth
