- Kirby Allison's 2nd Bespoke Suit Fitting With Sartoria Jensen. Eric Jensen conducts the second fitting of a new bespoke suit. In 2009 Eric Jensen followed his passion to learn the old world tradition of bespoke tailoring, by attending a prestigious school under a celebrated Italian maestro, Luigi Gallo. Eric graduated from Maestro Gallo's school, receiving his Master Tailor certificate, and he spent 4 additional years as an apprentice to tailor Chris Despos in Chicago.
Now located at Stefano Bemer 475 Park Ave in New York City, Eric is one of the last American-based tailors to carry on the bespoke tradition. He continues the art of tailoring in it's purest form, hand-drafting each client’s unique body pattern and molding canvas to the specific shapes and curves of the body. At least 30,000 strategically placed hand stitches go into the making of each suit.

I like the fact he supports American Tailors.
True!
Thats a really good thing
He supports tailors from around the world
I love these fitting videos. Really appreciate the amount of work and attention to the smallest details that goes into making the garment look as good as possible
Nice long format video. I love how organic this is and how details and "mistakes" are shown and discussed.
Tailor seems very nice too, i like how he's able to articulate what he thinks and say no when he feels he should.
I always find it so interesting to learn more about the process of the creation of a bespoke suit. Your work deserves much praise Kirby for showcasing such talented tailors like Mr Jensen. I'm very excited to think that soon I'll be attending the same tailoring school in Rome where Mr Jensen learnt the craft, and hopefully one day I'll be making garments as beautifully as he does.
Good morning James,
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about working with Maestro Gallo. You can find my email on my website or through Instagram. All the luck. And be in touch. I might be able to use you when you finish.
Best,
Eric Jensen
I’ve watched this video multiple times. Something about this guy I really like. He has a very keen eye it seems. And a very pleasant personality
I like the way the shoulders look unpadded. I love this bespoke process. I will enjoy coming to Eric for a suit once I have saved the money. Currently I have an appointment in July with Divij for a made to measure suit. Kirby, thanks for the great references.
Think it's going to be a beautiful suit when finished, the waistline and single pleat on the trouser looks smart, enjoyed the video Kirby thanks for sharing
Absolutely loving these fitting videos, do more!
Eric is awesome. I have my first fitting with him next month. He's a great person, too. A pleasure to work with. I am trying to get Simon Crompton to visit his bespoke cutting room next time he is in NYC. Kirby--if you read this, please tell Simon to visit Eric next time when he's in NYC.
Oh great! That's exciting!!
@@kirbyallison Thanks. I only knew about him through your vids, so I was happy to support his great work. As you know, he's a super great person in addition to being a master tailor.
I feel like 99% of the people who watch your videos don’t have the income for any of it, but I like your bringing this sort of thing to the masses.
And don’t you ever think that this man will give away every detail in fitting and tailoring of how he does it.
Love this series with Eric!
I used to get the same fittings 1srt and second fitting in India when I use to get my bespoke suits made. Now I live in western country and looking at these videos I now realize how much I under-appreciated them as I use to take them as granted in India.
Kirby, that is going to be an awesome suit!!
Kirby is a happy camper!
It's a good thing the camera stayed focused on his waist, the entire time the tailor was working on the pant break.
Hi Kirby Allison I am Asim from Pakistan. I am big fan of your videos. Due to your videos I am improving my dressing and my surround people now noticing difference in my office dressing. Thanks.
“A pair of trousers.” Surely someone at some point in history invented and tried on a single trouser then thought “My right leg’s OK but my left’s bloody freezing. I could do with two of these...”
It's a navy suit for war.
Need to establish a 3rd fitting.
Sandwich breath for when you fight fight fight.
I found it quite a brave yet challenging move to share your baste fitting experience on a youtube video. I have 20+ years of experience ordering suits from different tailors. Communications with every single one of them were different in order to get what you ask for. They didn't know you and your preference in the first or second commission, even if you use the same language to talk to all of them, because the cutters didn't do the sewing by themselves. They have to communicate what you told them to seamstresses in the workrooms and your instructions somehow lost in translation no matter what. Different cutters from different tailoring shops receive and understand your instructions differently no matter what.
That's why you go to a Master Tailor who does the whole process.
Great videos, Kirby. That jacket looks great on you. I would like him to make me a suit. I like how open he is to the gorge being a tad lower, and I also like his 9-10 on the lapels. Being in NY, I'm sure he is very expensive, but it's worth it. I'm definitely going to get a full bespoke by Joe Hemrajani after watching that fitting video you posted mainly because of his prices. He will be coming to LA in October.
Your tie length is driving me crazy.
Oh my yes
For some reason he espouses this as a style. I think he thinks its sprezzatura. Meanwhile he us the most uptight and wired cat there is!
The pants have an elegant pleat and drape. You can also see the shape of the jacket at this point. Eric has a real eye for style!
Nice suit but I wanna know what they’re building in the background?
Cool to hear in the background at 15:00 JetBlue flight 631 to Long Beach taking off.
Texas Niles! So formal.
Confidence is key
I agree that the intro music should sound a bit less epic. Also I would start the music before the narration. Just my stylistic two cents.
Subtitles are messed up
I can now understand that with a bespoke suit the person wears the suit as opposed to the suit wearing you.
This heavy fresco fabric sounds fantastic - wish I knew the weight.
They mention in the video it's 12.5-13oz
How often do you clean the trousers and how do you have it done? Also, how do you tell if you’re at a quality dry cleaner? Thanks
It is okay for Kirby Allison to have two types of trousers, one with wider hems at the bottom and what he is wearing during the fitting. ("2nd thoughts trousers" with bespoke suits) The Guardsman's slant is a good hem with a slight break is a good option.
This is true bespoke! Not like joe H. I felt like joe H tried too hard to act bespoke. This tailor is so confident in what he says about his garments. I love this video!
Great video but where is Part 3?
Why go for fresco if you get such a heavy weight? Just because you like the texture?
What do you do in July and August in Dallas. I lived in Greenville Tx. and the summer was hot and humid what suite style and fabric do you suggest. When the weather feels like 125
A suit that shows humanity.
Hi Kirby! What is the color of the suit you're wearing in the beginning of the video? I'd describe it as in between dark gray and blue. Very nice color!
Countalma Some might consider it “charcoal grey.”
Who tied the tie?
I wasn’t a fan of how the sleeve draped around the bicep area. Looked a little bit like a kid wearing his dads jacket
Kirby, is this a mid grey or darker charcoal grey? Looks amazing!
It's an interesting cloth, I pulled out a bit of scrap to give you a pantone, however, noticed upon closer examination its a bit of a melange. It has a deep dark grey primary yarn with white and grey fibers spun in which gives it a depth of field and the high twist makes it look more light than it really is and depending on the light looks darker or lighter. If you average out the colour, its very close to Gutermann thread colour 542, if that means anything to you. It's a nice cloth with a good hand. And should last longer than Kirby himself.
What is “suppression”?
Do you wear ready-to-wear underpants with a bespoke suit?
We don't have a mirror there is a full body length mirror resting against the wall right behind that chair behind them by the window
Why is the skinny part of his tie longer than the front?
1. Sprezzatura
2. It's much more important to have the longer part sit at the right place, even if that comes at the cost of having the small one hang lower.
The solution is to shorten the tie or do bigger nods.
My husband have just had two made to measure suits,so I presume bespoke is totally different as none of this detail was taken?
Maria das Santos yes, made to measure is mostly adjusting existing templates whereas in bespoke everything is specific for one individual client
Made to measure can be nice, too. While they are not as individual to the client as commentater Blub Blaa pointed out, they are still nice and require less fittings. There is an upside and downside to everything I suppose.
Tie Maker
kirby, this video is a prime example of how you care so much about dressing, however, you forget about your hair (esp the sideburns area). i am not saying you needa have modern faded undercut kinda hairstyles, but you needa still keep it neat and trimmed.
What if you gain weight
how can you look at that guys mustache
Wtf up with your tie?! And wear shirt stays man, makes everything look clean cut
@@juhof.73 Shirt stays work very well with no tie
He forgot to establish
dude got the Hitler Mini going....
Have you seen the poor fit on the trailers shoulder joint!!!! I’ll stick to saville row London.
Sorry not related to this video.
Could you film a tutorial on how to remove mold on leather shoes?
Adolf, is that you?
160,000 subs and you get all that free stuff. How many customers do you actually bring in, do you know? I suppose that you don't see a problem with promoting several competing products.
I don’t do leg fittings , oh yes I do. .
I don’t think Kirby’s dad taught him the correct way to tie a tie
He certainly didn’t teach me how to tie a tie. That’s for sure.
Damn man. Americans aren’t as smooth as the guys from London .
Dude the shoulders on both those suits look terrible.
Why is it that these “well dressed gentlemen” always have the rear end the their ties lower than the front? Not a look that is appealing.
Sprezzatura maybe?
I like it personally
The tailor's own jacket is terrible. Where his sleeve meets his shoulder he's got an edge sticking out that's big enough to hide a tank.
Lol! Yeah i noticed that too. For a bespoke tailor in fits poorly. That sleeve is a mess @8:08. Looks like the snuffleupagus trunk. I have Boss rack suits that hangs better.
Definitely not a summer suit neither a mid season one...
That's full on winter suit and I hate them!! Too much fabric
Not like the bunching of the shoulders on both your suits
The finish where the jacket sleeve meets with the shoulder of the suit the tailor is wearing is terrible. if that’s his own work it’s not a good advertisement..
Hi
That mustache is awful.
Yeah, its like he's getting fitted by the Fuhrer!
the navy single breasted suit, how utterly boring can you be. at least go with green
4:34 Comfortibilty?” The word is just ‘comfort’, don’t try to pimp the noun...
The word is ‘comfortAbility’; don’t try to whore the spelling of the noun...
Baggy arms, not for me
Buy from suit supply then
Jensen’s jacket fits where it touches. It’s horrendous. I wouldn’t allow him to tailor a pocket square for me!
Why does the tailor have a Hitler moustache?
it's called a pencil mustache... and was very popular in the 1930-1940s regarded highly in Italian fashion and by movie stars including Clark Gable (I think it looks weird because he has very light facial hair, in person it probably looks much better.)
Is this just for gays?
Looks terrible, get your money back.
Moley Moley Moley mole
That dude's jacket has extremely odd shoulder frills at the arm connection. Looks feminine. No thank you.
It’s called a roped shoulder. I wouldn’t call it feminine, but I would call it regal. Therefore I think it looks great on a classic business suit or tuxedo but I don’t like it on his sport jacket here either 😂
PLEATS ARE BACK????? Oh no!!!....
First Last no they aren’t, strange to see him get pleats
Pleats have always been ugly, and will continue to be ugly forever. He mentions that not having pleats makes you look pudgy... It’s exactly the opposite! Pleats cut off the line and distract from your physique.
Not a good habit holding a pin with mouth.
i don't know if i can trust this guy. he's not dripping over the young, tight, american boy. no 4d fit, and he didn't even name the planets.
