This is great Kirby, you can really tell how Eddie has been excited throughout this gift experience. Looking forward to seeing him in the new suit and shirt
I can’t tell you how satisfying it has been to be able to turn the tables on Eddie and indulge him in a feast of tailored clothing like he has me cigars !
Hey from Australia, Kirby! Just wanted to say thanks for all the inspiring work you're doing with these videos. They are always informative, fun and highly addictive. Love it and keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing your passion and wealth of knowledge
Wonderful job Kirby. A true example of what a mix of class, quality, and impeccability looks like. Unfortunately, it is in short supply in the world today.
Congratulations to Mr Sahakian for being able to pronounce Blancpain as ment to be. I find great inspiration in the respect and politeness between Kirby and Eddie. Thank you both for making the world a better place.
Thanks for so thoughtfully including us, Kirby! You've really achieved something incredible with the quality of your content; I felt like I was standing right there in Budd with you Chaps.
Kirby, I must say that your videos are outstanding. Their production is truly top shelf; I can only imagine that your upcoming Havana series will be equally superb. Thank you. And thank you for virtually introducing me to the Sahakian gentlemen. Cheers, Brother!
I had the good fortune to bump onto Mr Butcher as my cutter as a youngish man . James and Darren ain’t too shabby either! Dear Eddie will look splendid with Kirby’s guidance. What a charming video!
Exquisite. Budd provides an absoluteley faultless shirtmaking, but the way you gents treated the process was sublime beyond expectations. Thank you so much for the experience.
Another great video. I would like to see a video done at Charvet in Paris. They make great bespoke shirts. Their ties and pocket squares are also amazing.
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.
@@modern.performerdon't be so rude. He probably means he's not in such a gifted financial position. The only advice I can give is if you have the option to go to Italy or Turkey you can find this craftsmanship for way less. If you value handmade details highly then Italy will be even better.
@@teekue lol that wasn't remotely rude. The time to sugar coat things is over. Urgency is key now, in these times. You either get financially free in the next 5-7 years or you stay poor forever after that! Time to *wake up* ...the dreaming part is over
@@teekue Thanks my guy, I'm already doing quite well and have secured both my financial freedom and freedom of movement (you know, the two main attributes for which the clock is ticking). I've quit the rat race almost a decade ago and I strongly believe anyone can level up and do it. Appreciate your comment, not sure about the quote-on-quote and the emojis tho
Careful Eddie, if you keep hanging around with Kirby, he will turn you into as much of a bespoke addict as he is. Anticipating seeing the shirt and suit combo when they're finished.
Great video, always a pleasure to watch Kirby and Eddie content. Make some belts and hair styles vídeos dear Kirby, it’s surprisingly useful for a person that has a similar classic style for years and years. Cheers
Sind you. We’re talking about Going completely bespoke. Is there an episode in planning where you equip Eddie with a pair of bespoke shoes maybe from Gaziano or lobb ?
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.
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.
kirby if this modelling of bespoke tailoring with eddie keeps going he might become the next tim easton for a fashion brand... i am already jealous of his hair and he is nearly 30 years older to me....
The world needs more real men like these guys rather than the hyped up, in your face clowns that make up much of public life today. What a pleasure to watch this process asnd its artisans.
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.
I just admire the friendship between Kirby and Eddie… When you see the dynamic between them you just know thats what you want from a friend
Isn’t it wonderful. I wish I a friend like that.
No better friend than one with whom you share similar passions!
yes was quite impressive the humaneness.
True Classic Gentlemen! Didn't know these types of people still existed today. Watching this video felt like going back in time.
dynamic
I know Eddie is rich, but he's so appreciative and such a gentleman that I'm happy for him.
This is great Kirby, you can really tell how Eddie has been excited throughout this gift experience. Looking forward to seeing him in the new suit and shirt
I don’t think Eddie will ever take it off!
Wait until you see it all together!
@@kirbyallisonKirby complete the look with a pair of bespoke shoes
Eddie is just the sweetest man. Really in tune with others' feelings, and incredibly humble. What a treasure!
Even more so in person than he seems on camera!
The passion put into your craft on this level,price is NO matter..
The perfect shirt to complement the perfect suit.
I’ve seen the final piece! And I can assure you it’s incredible!!
I really do enjoy watching your friendship with Eddie Kirby. It’s great to see
I can’t tell you how satisfying it has been to be able to turn the tables on Eddie and indulge him in a feast of tailored clothing like he has me cigars !
Now.....I can't wait to see the shirt Eddie! So fun.
Coming this Saturday!
Kirby you are a true friend, gem and truly an inspiration on how all men should live and value our relationships
I wish you and Eddy all the best, every time I see you, you make my life a little better, thank you for that.
Thank you! Very kind!!
This channel is always so relaxing people that actually care about quality over quantity still around in the world.
Eddie’s and Kirby’s relationship is such a lovely thing to see. Genuine, caring. Well done gents.
Hey from Australia, Kirby! Just wanted to say thanks for all the inspiring work you're doing with these videos. They are always informative, fun and highly addictive. Love it and keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing your passion and wealth of knowledge
Today I learned something new about my family heritage. I live in the states and my great-great-grandfather came over as a ship captain
Wonderful job Kirby. A true example of what a mix of class, quality, and impeccability looks like. Unfortunately, it is in short supply in the world today.
Thank you!
Eddie is truly a gentleman. Thanks for the video.
"It started around the time I got married" Haha, pure gold. Thanks, gents.
Kirby!
You've just added one more stop when I'm in London.😊
Showing the world about friendship. 🍻
Kirby looking on like a proud parent
I have to say, Darren is just fantastic! What a pure gent and what knowledge he carries about shirt making!

What a charming video!
Great video, Kirby the cut of your suit is amazing, especially on the shoulders.
Great video Kirby. I look forward to the follow ups on this. What an amazing skill Darren has and so knowledgeable.
A wonderful friendship and a wonderful journey into the world of bespoke through the suit and now shirts.
Exquisite. Budd provides an absoluteley faultless shirtmaking, but the way you gents treated the process was sublime beyond expectations. Thank you so much for the experience.
Excellent video! Thank you for taking us on this journey between 2 great friends
Watching this video makes me miss my good friend.
Another great video. I would like to see a video done at Charvet in Paris. They make great bespoke shirts. Their ties and pocket squares are also amazing.
I can't wait for the 2nd part 😍 Really good friendship ❤❤ you don't see nowadays🙏🙏
The moment of truth that i am waiting for....thanks Kirby!
Such a pleasure to watch all of your videos my friend full of such Knowledge and history. I always look forward to the next.
Now it's time for Kirby to get Eddie bespoke shoes!
Love Kirby. Guy was born 100 years too late in the wrong country but can’t fault his dedication to our Great Britain 🇬🇧
Excellent work Kirby!
Can't wait to watch the full video!
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?
I remember asking Kirby about that and he said it was cancelled.
Covid casualty, unfortunately.
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.
One day i will own bespoke suits. Cant wait. But it will happen for sure!
Classy gentleman as always
I was not born for this luxury, but I am allowed to dream.
What you're not only "allowed" to do, but as a man it is your absolute *duty* , is to LEVEL UP !!!
You can leave 'dreaming' to the losers.

It’s addictive, that’s for sure! I thought about doing shoes as well, but wanted to save the Kryptonite for later.
Thanks for your channel 🤎 I am learning a lot and enjoy so much your bespoke videos. They relax me a lot 😌😴🧡
Being from America I love that you are speaking in yards and inches instead of the metric system.
Suit, shirt...only shoes to go Eddie!
Looking forward to seeing Eddie's Blancpain/Swatch 50 fathoms.
Sea dweller is a Rolex my good friend. You were thinking of fifty fathoms! Anyway enjoyable video, keep up the good work!
Great learning about Winchester collars and cuffs.
Great addition.
Love the colour of the suit you’re wearing
Excellent production
Love these videos, even if it bollocks really blowing smoke
Time for Eddie to upgrade to a real Omega 😊 The Speedmaster Professional would look great on his wrist! 👍🏻
That is awesome. Please show the completed suit.
That suit looks good Kirby. If you've a good tip for a brogue style boot tan...
I had been wondering what material is best to stop a shirt creasing easily. Cotton is very prone, but maybe better cotton is ok? Perhaps a blend?
Cool, sophisticated, classy gentlemen. Such a rarity today.
Great video, always a pleasure to watch Kirby and Eddie content. Make some belts and hair styles vídeos dear Kirby, it’s surprisingly useful for a person that has a similar classic style for years and years. Cheers
I believe Kirby no longer wears belts, he wears braces - sells them on his website
So who's the consummate shirt maker, Budd or Lachter?
Kerby, I think you make fun of him, that's very eugenical!
Again great
. Hope you gonna make an new episode with kent haste ..
Now only the bespoke John Lobb captoe oxfords in black are missing!
Wonderful Kirby. Are there still plans to release content from your trip to Italy with Eric Jensen?
Is it just me or has the already brilliant production kicked up a notch recently?
Great insight into something I am unlikely ever to experience,may I ask how much this all
costs?
Also on the journey of bespoke, one mustn't forget about a visit with Wil, it's been so long!

I'm really surprised with so many of the world's premiere tailors within a few hundred feet of his front door, this are his first bespoke outings!
I know! But, raising a family in London… and Eddie has been able to find things that fit quite nicely RTW
kirby if this modelling of bespoke tailoring with eddie keeps going he might become the next tim easton for a fashion brand... i am already jealous of his hair and he is nearly 30 years older to me....
As a guy that just can't afford this level of tailoring, I would love to see a review of made to measure sites. Like Hockerty for example.
1st view. As usual awesome video.
I am sure you commented before you watched the whole video. So awesome or not...have to find out 😂
Is the suit Mr. Sahakian is wearing the finished product from Henry Poole?
hi Kirby first 2min. (intro) whats with your left shoulder , (jaket), symetric to the other side?
Very good but just like Terry Haste, I find cocktail cuffs much more interesting than the ordinary barrel version.
amazing
Do we get to see the final suit and shirt together?
I need a friend like Kirby asap.
It’s no gift, Kirby. Like you said - once you go bespoke, you can’t go back. Speaking as a fellow addict. Lol.
Where these excellent music pieces you take from for your videos.
Eddie is a class act. Firm handshakes 🫱🏻🫲🏼
The world needs more real men like these guys rather than the hyped up, in your face clowns that make up much of public life today.
What a pleasure to watch this process asnd its artisans.
Looking impeccable, men. I love Eddie’s tie knot.
How does Kirby know about Eddie’s upper body strength?
😊🤭
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!
Darren loves his camp shirts! On any given day in London, it’s what you’re most likely to find him wearing!
What about bespoke shoes for Eddie? Bespoke coat even ?
Such good characters Eddie and Kirby
Who is playing intro music?
Where’s the final shirt ?
Where’s the Cuba series
Kirbyyyyy cuban vlog plzzz where is it lol jk. I bet its going to be amazing if its taking this long to edit.
Kirby, why is the narrow end of your tie longer than the wider end…..?
Kirby is helping Eddie to spend his fortune 😂
And please, do take him to GC for a propper pair of George Loafers. Or wholecuts.
Eddie is gorgeous!! But why's the knot on his knit tie so big?
IDK why but a lot of english men seem to me to prefer larger knots
Darren is also an absolute stud muffin (even with his Penfold specs)
He learned it this way from his father and does not want to change it. Kirby mentioned it under a previous video.
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.
