    Hello Kirby, I find these kind of videos to be the ones that I look up to the most when it comes to tradition in fashion, I was just wondering if the bespoke suit made in Huntsman & Sons in New York City, that you did a video on, is still an on going project or it was a covid casualty?

    Kirby, I appreciate your YT channel. I'm sure you'd agree that we'd all be better off. If we spent money on fewer items of quality than purchasing many items of lesser quality. The thing about having bespoke items is it encourages one to stay in good physical shape, b/c one can't just run out and replace bespoke items w/ something off the rack.

  • @Gordo3958
    @Gordo3958 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I get my shirts from Budd, but in Made to Measure. Personally, in shirts, I think ‘bespoke’ is highly overrated although the same cannot be said, of course, for suits. I get my MTM Budd shirts in a classic fit, they are cut to my sleeve length and collar size and I get to choose the type of collar and cuffs. This is all pretty much the same as bespoke, the only difference being the use of a standard pattern by Budd and the fact that you can buy just one shirt if you wish rather than four. The MTM shirts are made by exactly the same ladies, using the same process in Andover. MTM is not cheap either - around £275 plus/shirt - but I would highly recommend it.

    • @teekue
      @teekue ปีที่แล้ว

      You are probably right. Especially on Savile Row where even bespoke means no hand attached collars, arms and cuffs. MtM for shirts is certainly up there. Personally I enjoy my Italian shirts a lot more. But I can see why someone would prefer the English style.

    I just want to point out a detail on Darren's shirt. It's a camp collar shirt, but with a button hole and a button (?) at the top. So what I think is he has a very versatile shirt, he can style it casually by leaving the top unbuttoned, but at the same time, he can button it all the way up. I'd love a shirt like that if it can really work unbuttoned or buttoned!

    Why does Kirby have such a difficult time with the back of his tie? On more than one occasion the back tail is longer than the front one. It is such an easy thing to fix, yet his tie is often like that.
