Kirby I just want to say how much I enjoy and appreciate your videos. as a traumatized afghan vet, your videos relax me before bed and help me sleep. Plus I’m constantly using the info to upgrade how I dress, such as only wearing dress shoes and a button up shirt anytime I leave the house. Thank you! -Patrick
@@BullyBoxer that‘s me + i have a pretty standard body and feet, so i don‘t need bespoke clothing that much. I fit in most 48 regular fit suits very well after hemming the sleeves and with shoes I have a quite normal instep and normal width. Of course bespoke would probably be 5% better in very fine details but to me that‘s not worth spending that much more + i‘d be really paranoid about such expensive clothing to be ruined
I watch these videos and I think how special it must be to be a tailor and work in those shops. It would be an honor to visit one those places one day.
47 years and ongoing. I wonder how many shirts Stephen's done in that time, must be thousands by now. It looks like Terry has taken over John's old cutting board and Sayumba has moved over to Terry's. I've got some made to measure shirts but I'd love to do some proper bespoke at some stage. Another great series on the go here.
Hey Kirby, could you consider exploring the wonderful world of classic and modern classic automobiles. A wonderful space where craftsmanship and engineering are ar its finest❤
Funny, just watched the older video about the difference between a $100 rtw CH and a $1000 bespoke Charvet shirt. Today it made me wearing my only bespoke shirt I have (by Luigi Borrelli) again after a year or so. I completely forgot how comfortable that feels. Indeed, apart from the fabrics, also the armpits making a clear difference, compared to ready to wear. 😮👍
I admire the way you dress Kirby... Unfortunately, people really dont put any effort or thought in what they wear anymore and how they look. In the 30's, peo pl le wouldn't dare leave their home looking the way they do. Appreciate you sir!
I think it's a cultural thing also. I travel often to Taiwan with my family and I notice that people there definitely separate inside clothes from outside clothes. They at least put some effort into looking nicer even if they don't dress in the classic style. I think it's impossible to expect the majority of people to do that anymore, but at least to realize that at-home clothes, and exercise clothes have their place and purpose and should be worn outside for normal use.
I have a short neck, and all my dress shirts' collars touch the bottom of my hairline. I've always wondered what a bespoke shirtmaker would do about that. I guess that's the one thing that I would want to have made bespoke is a dress shirt that doesn't make my neck look short. 😆
You know Kirby, if you want to get another bespoke shirt. I'd go for a button-down collar, fitted linen shirt. Potentially in stripey pattern, or plain pattern. Would work really well for the summer in a navy suit or on its own. I say this because I am finding it virtually impossible to get a shirt that meets this criteria. A lot of them are soft collared or oversized which I really don't like.
I still think it would be quite interesting if Kirby had Brian Shaw on an episode of suit fitting cause Brian is an actual giant. Just to see the difference in sizes.
I wonder if paisley is perceived as too gaudy by some? I'm pretty sure that I had a few of them when I was still wearing ties, but today I would tend toward stripes and small patterns.
kirby you mentioned in a very early video that your chopard perpetual was aqquired preowned for less than ten k. could i please have the name of the website you aqquired it from and how did you authenticate it. thank you and love from montreal.
I would be stunned if they would not do that. It is part of the tailor's craft to be able to make clothes that will fit and flatter the body type of any unique client. It is one of the things that distinguishes bespoke tailoring from ready to wear and even made-to-measure clothing.
How does one become a tailor these days? Is it still through an apprenticeship or are there vocational schools? If I could go back and change careers, I'd choose this path.
Apprenticeship. There is a savile row school which costs 20k for non uk citizens, then theres sewing courses around the UK. Tailoring is either going to be a self taught thing, or something you learn of your parents. luckily you hace the internet at your hands. I have considered tailoring and still do, a little put off by jackets and coats, theyre so hard to make.
Before finding this channnel i had lost interest in mens fashion...gotta say that's gone a full 180 and now I wish I could afford to do even a fraction of this
For some reason it makes me happy seeing more and more younger people in that workshop every time you come back to it. The craft goes on.
Arts and crafts are immortal, its the whole reason we all alive.

Thanks for your service, Patrick
Thank you for your service and sacrifice my friend.
Thank you for your service, Patrick
You just know that these shirts are going to be top notch quality.
They’re a good way of keeping the weight off you as well as your wallet too!
Excited to see part 2 & thanks for taking us with you on your journey!
Gotta be honest, I’m quite envious of Kirby having all these clothes made.😂
Aren't we all? But at least we get to see the amazing work that goes into these clothes.
i‘m not envious about the amount of money he paid for all his clothes though
@@teekue p
@@rudiausbuddeln some of us have the money, but don’t want to spend.

As a fashion and sewing teacher it's a pleasure ti watch this great master video

You are in the safe hands of master craftsmen; worth every penny.
Great video. Nice to see George Atanasias (ex Turnbull & Asser) in the background during some of the shots. He made a superb pattern for me at T&A.
"& Lachter" - the series is complete!!!
I love the older guy's Alan Rickman/Snape voice so much
What a beaty that tailor lady is .... beautiful.....
That was pretty cool seeing the stack of collars.
This is a masterclass…in British humor.
Suyamba enjoyers we meet again! Get her an ASMR channel already.
Suyamba's a babe.
What would be interesting is an overcoat commission
The knowledge in this video is incredible.

About halfway through all I noticed was the massive bakery behind suyamba… she’s fantastic in every way
I was just beginning to wonder, has Kirby ever gotten a shirt made from Kent Haste and Lachter? Surprised when I saw this in my notifications!
Are you being sarcastic lololol
I'm excited for the finished product. He's great. You've acquired great friends Kirby.
It's an exact science. Enjoyed watching.
Interesting video Kirby. Look forward to seeing the next video in the series.
Always enjoy these visits 😊

You can alter collar height with MTM as well.
@@TheDubtFire Alas, I have never done made-to-measure, either, so I might just do that.
My eyes were constantly drawn to Suyamba working in the background

Really it is not a shop but rather an artists cave 🎩
It's good news all time favourite is that customer support
I have seeeerious hair envy every time I see Suyamba. Everything about her is beautiful.
The guys must be so happy they discovered Suyamba shes exceptional
Her hair is sooo coooooool

Kirby is living his best life. Good for him
Alumo Zephir Soyella is lovely, probably the best shirting out there in my opinion! I prefer it in heavier weights though, around 90 gms.
Wearing Oxfords and not using the Oxford comma - bold choice!
I cannot wait to see the shirt!
Fantastic! Please do a pattern drafting video for this as well!
Suyamba, Suyamba, Suyamba ❤
Going for the watch… distract him will you!
Awesome career "style is my job"😊
Another great video mate, can’t wait for more 👍🏻👌🏻❤️🇬🇧
Yesssss I love this shop
Patiently awaiting Cuba content
Need a retirement interview or launch with John Kent!
Great project!
She’s incredibly attractive.
Agreed
Agree.
And how is John Kent doing? Hope he has a wonderful time
Are paisley ties not something to be admired? I like them, especially in all wool for the field.
I wonder if paisley is perceived as too gaudy by some? I'm pretty sure that I had a few of them when I was still wearing ties, but today I would tend toward stripes and small patterns.
Inside joke…
@Tie clip Well, you know what Hemmingway said about the English!

measurements are super asmr

Dear Kirby, how much does a Bespoke shirt approximately cost
Kirby, you should have trusted your tailor and gone with the cocktail cuffs… a little James Bond British super spy style couldn’t be bad.
Mate you should do a Collab with TheReportOfTheWeek.
How did she get her hair to look so messy? i mean i want to know how it stands up so unnaturally. Super curious its a cool look.. quirky
I watch this channel for the hindoo lady.

He picked the exact fabric of the shirt he was wearing.
Surprised you didn't choose a Winchester for the very Brit experience.

‘They are good those fakes aren’t they’…😂
Sir please make a episode about luxury hot towel shave
I'm also looking for a navy suit for war........
amazing
Would they do an overweight person? Interested in a custom suit and shirt for my dad
I would be stunned if they would not do that. It is part of the tailor's craft to be able to make clothes that will fit and flatter the body type of any unique client. It is one of the things that distinguishes bespoke tailoring from ready to wear and even made-to-measure clothing.

Why’s he staring at his tie last bit of measurements ?

Why does he measure some parts and not record them?
Did you not have a shirt made by budd ???
You also get a posture exam with this so that is good

Too bad he's married, he really is a handsome man ☺️
Jeez...though...be good to crank out some pushups😅
Why is that one woman in background wearing a dress that from a distance looks like it belongs in the later 1800's?
I wonder if he had to get rotor cuff surgery cause of his rounded shoulders
He said the monogram on the cuff is a bit showy smh as opposed to the front belly/chest of the shirt. Not a fan of either.
