    I think it's the only place in the world dedicated especially to men's sartorial style. In other cities you find one or two stores for gentlemen but mainly it's woman's style on what its being focused on. On your next trip drop by at Saville Row and also at James Smith & Sons - oldest umbrella store in New Oxford Street.

      yes, a walking tour of Savile Row would be a fine companion piece to this

    Floris is also mentioned in a James Bond novel as something that 007 uses. Ian Fleming was one of the first to use product placement, I think. He also mentioned Rolex, of course, and Dunhill lighters.

    A lovely video of a priceless street! I used to think that purchasing expensive traditional makes would guarantee long lasting quality......but I've been very disappointed by both a Burberry raincoat (The two colours 'ran' into one another the first time it got wet!) and a Barbour jacket (Soon developed several small holes) - which I doubt would have happened to mass market equivalents at a fraction of the price. Can't fault Floris though.....have worn Elite for many years!

    Charles Tyrwhitt shirts (and all their garments) are first class! £140 for 4 shirts is an absolute steal, and you can get better deals in sales! Their knitted stuff is top quality too! And, having recently bought a bottle of Blenheim Bouquet, a Floris fragrance is next on my list! :)

    I bought an Aquascutum duffle coat as a gift to my sister when I was living in London in 2004. Still in perfect condition.
    I also managed to buy for myself a trench coat, just before they went bankrupt. Excellent piece! Pity that they did not survive.

    Just found this channel!. Top notch tbh. When i lived & worked in london back in the late 60’s, ronson lighters had a walk in repair shop in jermyn street. I took a lighter in there for a fettle up. Then went along to taylors for a shave.
    The shave parlour was toward the rear of the emporium. Fabulous shave, it was a hot summer day, the skin felt so cool & refreshed upon going outside.
    Keep up the good work, much enjoyment to be had from viewing.

    Nice to see Jermyn St again after a 3 year absence from London. Thanks for the tour Ash, it brought back some happy memories. I must admit to not being a huge spender on my various trips to the street. I used to love seeing all the goods, colour combinations etc. just to get ideas. I do look forward to when I can next get back and spend a few hours there again. Cheers! Phil

    Incredible! I was a pilgrim there just a month ago. More to buy, looking at the creations. You are right, people are happy to invite you to watch. I saw this there in Jeremyn street, Piccadilly arcade and even in Saville Row. A good service that in my eyes is not something exclusive to this neighbourhood, but to London and the UK in general from what I could see. I am very happy to see those same streets with your excellent description. Greetings and hugs from Chile!

    Hi Ash ,great video as usual. I noticed that you said that the saphir shoe products in Taylor of old Bond Street were over priced. I purchased a Merkur de razor from Geo F Trumper last year which was also over priced compared to online but l chatted with the staff for about Half an hour and left with bag of free samples included some Eucris .so on balance well worth the extra cost

    Huntsman & son tailor in nearby Saville Row is absolutely astonishing. ( The real “kingsman”) I was gifted a bespoke Huntsman jacket from my dad & they will re tailor any inherited garment to give many more years of enjoyment. It’s like a Patek Phillipe watch “you look after it for the next generation”

      Huntsman is the bomb but Geives and Hawkes is my go to for my suits (6 they have made for me, 4 more to go till I say "no mas"). Huntsman may be the bomb but the best tailor in the world, by far is Davide Taub of G & H. He is the bomb over all bombs!

    My favorite street. Would go visit Edward at Davidoff for my montecristos, love Turnbull and Assers for shirts and ties. Have a little lunch at the bar at Greens Champagne and oyster bar. I do like going over to GEO Trumpers on Curzon Street for a haircut and a shave. Fortnum and Masons is too touristy for me but it’s lovely to visit around the holidays, used to sell premium wines to them. Love everything Dunhill, used to buy their pipes, love their glasses. Like Hacket for sportswear. My first visit to GEO Trumpers in 1986, I had Actor Peter Graves of Mission Impossible on my right and the Duke of Westminster on my left.

    Fantastic episode Ash. It makes me want to save for a couple of years while holding off on any other acquisitions and then go on a buying trip! Being careful to avoid "london prices " and just buy some quality stuff. For me, a t&a shirt, some c&j brogues, and maybe a smoke or two from Davidoff would be wonderful.

It adds a bit of uniqueness to your videos as few others in the sartorial realm do these sort of pov mini tour videos.

    I am fortunate enough to be a Turnbull & Asser bespoke customer. I finally took the plunge after years of wearing there RTW shirts. I am also a big fan of Charles Tyrwhitt shirts, especially for there price.

    Very interesting commentary of Jermyn Street. Ash, I am not sure if you have ever attended a 'London Walks' guided tour? They are excellent and make for a great afternoon out. But think you could do the same thing applied to the sartorial world and history. I think the format worked very well. If you were interested in doing one of these guided walks once in a while I dare say they would be well attended Sir!
