- Even if I think menswear is a scam nowadays, thank you guys so much for the ride. I can't tell you how much it means to me.
Find me critiquing outfits on Josh's channel @breakfastserial • Dennis Rader’s best & ...

These comments...I wasn't joking when I said I have the best audience a RUclipsr could ask for. You guys put the biggest smile on my face today! Just to reiterate I'M NOT QUITING. I'm just going to post what I want when I want...hopefully it won't take another year and a half lmao and again, link to Josh's channel and my new history channel in the description.
You guys are the absolute best. I'm bless for each and every one of you. Thank you.
Thank you Man.
Oh I thought you were actually done with this channel🤣 Well whenever you upload here again I bet it will be a banger! Thanks for the great content
There he is.
Man I missed his videos. It's nice to know that his video isn't really over. It's just evolving, a new chapter.
And here you Chads are right on schedule 💪you guys are the best
I love that you are making rings now, as I am a big ring collector.It sounds like you got burnt out along the way. Also regarding your pants, not all fabrics are bad, a lot of MTM stuff is just not made for pants. But you don't know making one off stuff. I have tested fabrics extensively to prevent something like that because if you have a bad batch of RTW pants that's problematic.
I might be one of those guys who told you to just keep going haha 😂.... Honestly, I have no idea why the algorithm never gave you enough love (or was too sporadic to depend on). It really goes to show how imperfect algorithms are, and what sort of content is prioritized these days. But still, I feel like your editing style is very contemporary.
It *should* work, especially here on YT. Either way, I'd watch your take on any topic, just because I enjoy the editing/pacing and aesthetic. There are fewer and fewer purists out there. Not as many people with soul in the game anymore. I think you have that (i.e., you care about what you make).
So I'll say it again: keep going! (But don't limit yourself to menswear....make whatever you feel like making!)
You were! I feel bad now because you reminded me that I mentioned you and some others in a thank you on my first take of this, but since it's unscripted it always was changing. So here will have to suffice for now: thank you so much, brother! You helped me so much and I can't thank you enough for the incredible support you've shown me over the years.
Your words mean so much. I will keep going. Thank you, brother!
Most likely, the algorithm will take the word scam seriously, so this video will ironically blow up.
hahaha! Wouldn't that be a great twist of irony
Bruh, I came across your channel by looking for tutorials on how to make linen trousers. Your video was amazing, and I instantly connected with your editing style and just overall authenticity. I followed along on your fashion videos, and they were the best on the entire platform! Most youtubers that deal with male fashion are just shilling their own (hanger) projects and are basically making targeted ads that prey on people's desire to not break any of the unwritten style "rules". Big props to you for showing off how your expensive clothes deteriorated and aren't really worth the money. It's a story that needs to be told.
I know you will do incredibly well wherever you go next. Attention to detail and a strong work ethic is apparent from your portfolio of videos. Good luck on whatever path you need to take next.
Brother, I can't you enough for your kind words...thank you! It is unfortunate how many shills are on the platform, whether they're trying to convince their audience of gold plated elephant dung or trying to convince themselves, it's unfortunate. But lessons learned lol
Thank you again brother...this gives me hope
The man is (not) back! The pleasure and honour was all mine! Very excited to check out the new channel man!
Thank you for playing a part in bringing this guy back some. Subscribed to you, too.
@@needfoolthings my pleasure! I was always a huge fan of his, so was very honored and flattered that he was interested in joining me for a collab
Hahaha! Thank you again so much for having me on, brother! Seriously thank you
Whatever channel you tackle, it's not about any topic, it's about you and your talent.
Man...this gets to me. Thank you so so much
I actually really loved your ability to put together outfits, and your discussions about finding personal style, even if the clothes themselves weren't as high quality as hoped
That's actually really the greater compliment. Thank you so much, my friend
Yeah a lot of those online MTM operations are a grift. They wow people with the fancy textiles from old world heritage brands, but they rip and fall apart immediately because the construction is H&M-level shoddy single stitching and super glue.
Yep. It's quite the black pill but it's the unfortunate truth but the truth nonetheless
What's good, fam? I can definitely relate to your journey. You and I started around the same time and it's been a love/hate relationship with RUclips and its algorithm ever since. But like I told you before, I appreciate your video style and content.
Sorry to hear about your experience with some of your garments. I haven't experienced anything like that, thank God! Your voice is needed, keep posting!
With that background we could use a Demetrios Levi course in home decoration ;) Glad to see you again, whatever you end up doing.
Dayumn i subbed like a week ago, thought you abandoned this channel entirely. super cool that you posted again
What I have noticed over the last few years is that brands only care about SAYING that they use good quality materials, but they don't actually use those materials. The materials and manufacturing method are the same (or even worse) than cheap clothes that don't spend on marketing to talk about the quality of the product. And this applies even to high fashion and luxury. Hard times. Greetings from Brazil.
Exactly. I'm glad you mentioned the manufacturing method because that's something really important that a lot of people miss. Even IF you have "good quality materials", that's just a part of the whole process; the way their usually made today vs back then are huge. Linen is a huge one I find. The difference between my modern linen clothes vs my 1980s Banana Republic and vintage Cubavera linen shirts are night and day. Hard times indeed. Obrigado meu amigo
Holy shit he's back
Your closing message really hit home, and although it's bittersweet to say goodbye, I'm thankful for the journey we've shared through your work.
Thank you man! I have loved your content for a long time! While it's sad to see you go i think i speak for us all when we say we will miss you and wish you the best!
A triumphant return! 👏🏻As a true crime fan I'll have to check out the serial killer outfit critiques!
You're the best! Glad to hear you're doing well. Looking forward to checking out your history channel.
I started watching you when I got into menswear, and honestly man your talent and way of presentation is what kept me coming back. You are so entertaining to watch, I would go back and watch videos I've seen before regardless of the topic. I cannot wait to see what you do next.
Thanks for all the good times I’d come home late from work and just chill watching your fashion videos. My fashion game seriously changed for the better. Cheers to you bro all the best wherever you go, from New Zealand
Glad to see you back, loved all your videos so far, I'm looking forwards to what's to come.
Thrifting and getting 2nd hand vintage clothes has gotten so so popular like a lot of the sartorial/style social media influencers that I've been following all swear by thrifting clothes so maybe that's a trend you can do?
It's good to have you back man 🤙🏻
I really feel you on the custom failures, man. I too have had expensive MTM garments fail on me and my coworker, who is a huge designer brand kind of guy, can't help but keep up a smug attitude about it. But can I really fight against him? His Burberry, Ferragamo, LV, and John Varvatos stuff haven't had nearly as many problems as my MTM pieces have. And I've read the garment tags - half of those items are made from crap! So he ends up thinking that custom clothing is overrated and pales in comparison to "artistry".
Alas, I have been watching your channel since 2020 at least. At the time I couldn't wrap my head around how your sub count could be so middling despite your production values - I still can't. The algorithm really did you dirty. Despite this, I for one believe you've got what it takes to make this channel one of the greats. So whatever you decide to put out, you can be sure I'll watch and share it.
Cheers bud, and happy belated Good Friday!
So glad you made this video. I wanted to share a few thoughts. You're right about the quality of the clothes, and it is legitimately a gamble to experiment with going up in price point. Also, it was cool to find out that you're interested in Byzantine history, so I'll definitely be checking out your other channel. The most important thing though I wanted to share is that I haven't personally watched your channel for advice on fashion or for it being cinematic. For me it's really just been your personality. You've always seemed like a cool, flashy guy, who at the same time is self-aware and modest, and I admire your courage in getting in front of the camera and being like that.
This was the best Easter Surprise ever!! What should I say? Did like your videos a lot and really appreciate the work you’re putting in. Would love to see once a while a video here. You have a great taste and i think you could do great stuff with Unqlo and Co, just show what is possible. Add some of your handmade jewellery- I would watch it.
Grinding my a** on RUclips since more than 7 years now, still just a small channel, but its still fun. Whatever you do, do it because you like it. Happy Easter holidays, cheers.
Awww ❤😭 One of the few fashion youtubers that i am following currently here and i resonated with your RUclips journey a lot (I make content on vintage fashion/thrifting since 2018), wow I will certainly follow your other channel for sure sounds super interesting love me some history 🤩 and fashion from the past
Demetrios, it's truly a joy to see you here once again. I've been curious about your whereabouts, thinking to myself, "Such incredible talent; I hope all is well with him." Seeing you delve into video work brings a smile, and I'm hopeful you'll reignite your passion for this channel. Your talent is undeniable, and I'm confident you're destined for remarkable achievements. By the way, how might I purchase the ring featuring the stunning green stone? It's absolutely beautiful!
Glad to see you're back. Love your videos, Keep rocking
Man it’s heart breaking to see this happen to such an amazing creator like yourself bro, I found your channel from curly hair but I’m also into fashion and create some stuff myself . Nothing on the level you’re on but I always aspired to be like you and the quality you bring. I hope you change your mind and continue creating . But no matter what I know God has big plans for you and I’ll be following no matter what you end up doing
i've missed u. thank you for posting!
Welcome Back or Hey, again? For what you gave us while you were here, personal and editing style were masterpieces and what you shared for the men who would listen and take your advice was invaluable; in my eyes you broke the mold on dressing stylish and swanky for men simply finding a 3-piece suit or being guided strictly by men's fashion trends.
You don't have to make jewelry for profit but you now have proof that you're a skilled personal stylist and editor. Thank you for what you gave us when you had it in you!
Totally agree with one of the commenters here, you do you and we will support you either way simply because you are a very talented individual and just a fantastic human being! Thank you for sharing your passions with us all.
Glad to see you're still holding a positive mindset. God will bring good things your way. If you do find good quality manufacturers of clothing, please share. So far, I've only experienced Spier and Mackay as I try to find myself a good tailor who can make nice pieces for me here in Canada
I was very happy to see this new video,I have missed your channel.I wish you much success in your new endeavors.
God bless you dude. So sorry all this happened to you. Currently running into problems with my wardrobe as well.
I know this is early for you, but from your Papist brethren, Christos Anesti!
Loake shoes are incredible for quality and longevity. Love your channel man, keep it up!
I found you from the Greek coffee video. Yesterday I made it and was like where is that dude?! Then today here you are!
Hey like many others here, so glad to see you again! I'd love to see you put outfits together even if it's like Primark stuff. Regardless, it's always a pleasure seeing you.
Dude, I love that you got into jewelry making. I do a bit of silver work with my mom and I’ve made about 90% of my jewelry including multiple pieces for my partner. Such a rewarding thing to do. Good work! I wanna get into gold too.
I really love the idea of vintage items review
Great to see you again! If you are searching for inspiration for your jewelry, check the “Sardinian” jewelry style.
I would love to buy some jewelry when you start selling so I hope an update video comes out announcing your shop soon!!! 😁
I’m late to the party here but I always enjoyed your videos, so I’m here for whatever comes.
I came from the high-rise pants video recently. Yeah, the algorithm truly giveth and taketh away. Love the humor. As This Watch, That Watch talks about, heritage is largely irrelevant because what matters is what the company is producing today, not what they made decades or centuries ago.
Our boy is back! Give the people what they want! Great to see you back on camera.
Dude, so good to see you again.
Damn dude, you are posting again? Welcome back. Best mensware channel around imo. Gent Z is an up-and-comer but your film skills are fantastic. Kirby Allison also makes neat stuff. Hope to see more of you again
gent z is great 👍
I enjoyed every episode from the Demetrios Levi channel. Great content and delivery; but without question, the editing was far superior to all the rest. We miss you man.
so happy to see you're back!
Welcome back bro! Been waiting for you so long.
Good to see you back!
This guy always made great videos about clothing I stopped wearing expensive brands thrift store shopping.
Thanks for the update, Demetrios! We all go through seasons, and I'm glad to hear that you're trying to listen to God. Be blessed, brother!
Glad to see this update. Can I buy one of your Byzantine rings? I'm obsessed with that empire
Persistence is 90% of genius. Welcome back!!!!!
welcome back after a long time, remeber asking you what camera you used like years ago. still need to go buy it XD
This was a good video. How about a comparison between the expensive brands that fell apart and the cheap clothes that were very good. That's information we can use.
I love your sitting room!
Great to see you back!
Beautiful content. Love the aesthetic
Hey! Nice to see you back!
Ya took ya sweet time aint ya? Welcome back!
BROOO FINALLY DAMN BASTARD TOOK A MINUTE. Great to have you back dude. You have no idea how much I looked out for your content so it is beyond great to see you here again tbh.
Byzantine, makes me think I'm up for that ride. Keep moving Demetrios!
This guy always made great videos .
Nice to see you back 💪
Disappointed with your collaro experience. I've a couple of shirts from them
your jewelry looks great!
Good To see you back 😊
Been waiting for you to come back
He’s back again.🔥 I’ve missed your content, my guy.
I just found you channel a couple of months ago 😅 oh well
I'll definitely check your Eastern Roman Empire channel though, as a Bulgarian I'm sure I shall find it interesting 😊
I've actually thrifted a bunch of linen and corduroy. You've been a huge stylistic inspiration thus far. I still can't see myself wearing the vintage tees, not my style, but I'm super happy with my wardrobe so far.
RETURN OF THE KING!!
And that's why I've opted to go fully vintage with only high quality or sartorial brands
I've been thinking about his videos more often recently.
Good to see you friend 👍🏻
The bois are back in town
Follow the passion for fashion. Make videos around certain pieces of clothing, mens fashion styles genres, and show off your pieces of style.
About damn time!
Missed you man.
Glad to see u, buddy.
Good to see your video.🎉
He’s back! Welcome!
My man back
Wow. Surprised about those mtm garments.
Just when i thought collaro and others would be the solution to my trouser crotch rub issues.. better stay away or buyer beware then... 🤔
Keep going with the uploads bro. Might be like Brandon Balfour, YT Algorithm Gods blessed his return after a house fire?
Fellow SE Michigan resident so I'm curious. Did you ever find a job?
He explodes on the scene like a Millennial fuckin firecracker
Welcome back good sir
1) good to see you again!
2) I feel you on the scam part. My Luxire pants are meh quality fabric and the worst pattern I've ever experienced. Back rise was ordered 5.25" higher than front rise, and yet the front literally sits higher than the back. OR I can pull up the back to be even and then its slicing my cheeks. $120 wasted.
He’s back!
You may think God is telling you to stop making videos, but he is testing your persistence. Once you get out of this rut you feel that you're in, you are going to grow significantly. I mean your channel's quality is worthy of millions of subs. So they will come. Just stay confident and create with love and passion, not with the numbers in mind. The hair videos brought me here, but the fashion stuff is what made me stay. If you love that, keep it up man. And even if quality is going down in the industry, do your best to find the best quality for you and your subscribers and be the guy who drops gems for those seeking quality menswear. Whatever direction you go in, just give it your all. Glad to see you back man!
Welcome back
I was starting to think this guy was in witness protection.
Need more Hermes quality in clothes these days.
He's back baby
long time no see !
Finally back 😍
Really happy to see you´re back! I've been waiting for a life sign for ages. You have a certain style of content and i also feel you could probably do some house tour lifestyle videos here :) your house looks really exciting!
He is alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
