I newly discovered these two Gentlemen. Thanks for your advice! I just recently acquired a Single Vent Super Black Hugo Boss Suit. Now I know how to get it altered to suit my physique. Thanks again!
Is it possible to take a suit jacket in in the waist if it has side vents? My tailor told me it would cause the vents to overlap more and not look right.
Love your videos! Could you do a video on how to pull off a brown suit? I always wanted to get one after watching The Godfather, but I am hesitant on how to wear it or if it is still as usable as in the old days....
Great analysis! Y'all earned a subscribe. I also think it may be necessary to say Black men (African - I'm Zambian), often have different body shapes. I ran track and field and while i a slim, I have a rounder/fuller butt and thicker thighs than would be expected for my size. Always makes buying off the rack difficult,
Overcoats were originally given a single vent in back, balanced with how the overcoat flaired in front, so that it would splay out over your legs while riding horseback. The way the coat flaired at the waist when cut like this also allowed easy access to a gentleman's pistol or sword.
That is interesting, I have personally only seen side vents OTR. Anyhow I would only suggest side vents for city suits, and recommend that one only get a single vent if you are getting a more casual country suit/jacket. As I have understood it was originally made to accommodate horse riding.
Double vents in my opinion are more suitable in Europe. Double vents go back to the days of horse riding in the Middle Ages. In the US they introduced a more cheaper single vented suit. Double vents every time for me.
Good video guys! Champagne should be served before the videos more often. 😂😂😂 Jackets must have vents, not a fan of non-vented jackets. Even though I own one.
My man's tea was on the BRINK of escape, couldn't focus on what y'all were saying while watching your tea kiss the edge up your cup while talking with your hands 😅 (how has it been a YEAR and no one talked about this??)
for the overcoat is fine for women especially Asians who like to wear on top. Indians and Chinese but its a light fabric not overcoat fabrics that we know men do.....
You don't want to use the expression " tea" when speaking as a gentleman or when referring to voluntering information. "Giving Tea" comes from the Black Gay/ drag queen/transexual scene in New York city. Made popular by black housewives reality TV. Only Gay men use that expression in America. Straight men do not use that expression " Tea" if you speak like that straight men will shy away from you . "Spill the beans" is the proper expression if you are talking about volunteering informations in the form of gossip. Watch out with these American expression y'all!!!😂😂😂😂
Great to have you back, guys! :)
Thanks Eric

Great video as always! I always appreciate that fact that you always state these are just our opinions. Keep them coming...... 👊🏾
Thanks
Great video gents! I swear you guys create the best content about men’s style on yt!
Thank you. Its an honour to receive such a compliment.
The overcoat was originally designed for horse ridding. The middle split allows the coat to lay on the sides of the horse/legs.
Very informative guys, thanks!
Thanks Randy

Another question answered 👍
Thanks Vaibhav
Good stuff.
Thanks broskies nicely done here 👈🏾👏🏽👏🏽
I'm a slim guy and I prefer a single vent. I like a simple look and this seems to fit it - seems less fussy.
Thanks Jon. You're a lucky guy. When single vents work they look good.
Double vents in my opinion are more suitable in Europe. Double vents go back to the days of horse riding in the Middle Ages. In the US they introduced a more cheaper single vented suit. Double vents every time for me.
Agreed regarding horse riding. Thanks Thomas

Thanks for your question Tykwan, we've added it to our list
I'm gonna make my first suit, which one do you prefer one vent or double vent? Btw I'm in shape, not a fat or a skinny guy
What about no vents
Great video, very informative as usual. Look forward to the next video and Cena the double breasted jacket is bangin'
Thanks Todd. Ps you've definitely given Sena cause to smile; compliments are always good.
I was told by a saville row tailor that the single vent is known as a Jockies jacket meant for horse riding...
for the overcoat is fine for women especially Asians who like to wear on top. Indians and Chinese but its a light fabric not overcoat fabrics that we know men do.....
Isaac Imade Omuse was thinking that as well...
Thats interesting. Thanks for your contribution Isaac
