    That is a mighty collection of beautiful suits, brother. I’m not required to wear a suit for work (I’m an electrical engineer and have been working from home for the past year) but I decided to change things up a couple of months ago and got a tailored suit... man, I’m addicted. I never knew the real power of wearing a suit. You’ve been a source of information and inspiration, and I’m looking forward to getting a bespoke suit later this year!

    Just finished watching the whole video. I have two made to measure suits and a MTM jacket in my wardrobe. One is 12 years old (classic navy twill) and still looks stellar. Many other off the rack pieces have come and gone but there’s really nothing to match sitting down next to someone with knowledge and passion, picking a cloth and having it made especially for you. Both the quality AND the pleasure in ownership make the pieces long term mainstays. Every few years it’s great to keep building, patiently with some pillar pieces like this that you can accessorise around. Thanks for sharing Kirby… and yes… time for an update vid!!

    After spending ten of thousands over the years I came across a factory in China I found online, They make my Bespoke suits with top quality wool (Not falling from the "luxury" brands I have been buying past years), and for under 500$ for a full suit. I wish I found it before, The quality of these suits and put a lot of those top brands to shame.

    WW Chan is a very traditional tailor and clients that go to them tend to already be very clear on the mills they want and have a clear idea of what they intend to commission. They usually follow the exact choices of the client. But of course if you were to ask them for their comments on your cloth choice I'm sure they would be able to help.

  • @silvermediastudio
    @silvermediastudio ปีที่แล้ว

    The Chan jacket looks a lot better worn on the body than on the hanger, for one.
    I do notice that the angles on the lapel, the notch in particular, and other places are concave down. They almost look like frowns. Other lines seem to mirror this curve and the grid over-pattern likely accentuates it. I think these elements are a big part of why it doesn't "pop" or come alive the way the other suits do, where the angles are sharper and upturned.

    Thanks for this video. Whatever happened to the Champs de Luca suit you wrote about a few years back? Might I also make a suggestion: a series of how-to videos by experts once trunk shows start again. For instance, how to press trousers and jackets or sew on suit buttons by Divij or Eric; iron shirts, sew on shirt buttons, clean stains by Wil, etc. And then stock those cleaners, threads, buttons (horn, MOP, etc.) used on your website. Both the “how to” and easy access to the proper “tools” are lacking for general consumers right now-not including some specialty tailor or shoemaking stores.

    Thanks Kirby. I was thinking of commissioning a ww. Chan suit. but your comment gives very good and true insight that makes me think if I should give it second thought. Just curious when you made the jacket. was it measured by Patrick?

    Absolutely amazing and gorgeous collection Kirby ! I'm just triggered by your collar gap, I don't know if this kind of flaw can be corrected with an alteration, if some distinguished gentleman here knows ?

    I believe after having some experience with bespoke,you should know what you want when you met the traveling tailor from Hong Kong! I've experienced that type of tailor,and love the experiences I've had to this day. You should know what you want,and not expect that person to hold your hand. Especially if you claim to know so much about bespoke!

    Kirby - I'm a new follower, and so glad to find your channel, website, etc. - Outstanding. Here's my question, and hopefully you see this and can respond: What's the best way to find a reputable tailor in or near Houston, TX, for commissioning a bespoke suit and/or tuxedo? Do I just Google it? My son is getting married in February, so it's time for me to tighten up the wardrobe! Thanks!

    I think the WW Chan jacket is fine but the experience of bespoke is as or possibly more important then the final product. The negative experience is now weaved into that jacket. Coincidentally my first bespoke piece is also for my wedding. Had my final fitting in New York just a few days ago!

    There was an Anderson and Shepard customer who ordered 80 suits. He had eight houses worldwide and wanted 10 suits at the ready in each one.

    yep, pretty jealous. Being from the UK i really want a lot of flannel or tweed suits really. I have this one from Cad and Dandy that I absolutely love and funnily enough, the suit it was made for have a similar body type to mine. I got it for 200 quid brand new. otherwise 2 grand if you pay full retail

    Hey Kirby I don’t mean to be nitpicking but in the video I see some moderate “collar gapping” with your sartoria Gallo nyc charcoal fresco suit. It mostly occurs while you are moving and making gestures with your arms. Is the collar gapping normal for a bespoke suit? If not, is it possible to have it corrected by your tailor Eric J.?

    Very impressive collection Mr Allison. With such an expensive collection how do you handle potential weight gain/loss (gym/diet changes etc)?

  • @theaj1nkya
    @theaj1nkya 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would love to see a 399$ vs Thousand Dollar Buzz feed style video by Mr Kirby but More like a blind chance where he examines the suits without knowing price tags and then explain why one is better than other.

    how often does one wear a tuxedo these days? at your weddiing? Is it worth such detail? My father purchased bespoke garments, but with a good tailor, you can buy off the rack and size it. Not as perfect as bespoke but much cheaper.

      We have filmed a number of videos with Huntsman, both on Savile Row and their New York cutting room. I would say take a look at them. Huntsman are a fantastic firm.

      You know though, compared to a lot of style and men’s fashion experts on TH-cam and elsewhere, I would say that Kirby has a very compact wardrobe.
      I mean everything is relative, but in my opinion, he has clearly favored quality over quantity
