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 perfect shirt to complement the perfect suit.
I’ve seen the final piece! And I can assure you it’s incredible!!
"It started around the time I got married" Haha, pure gold. Thanks, gents.
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 !
The passion put into your craft on this level,price is NO matter..
Kirby!
You've just added one more stop when I'm in London.😊
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!!
Kirby looking on like a proud parent
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
Love Kirby. Guy was born 100 years too late in the wrong country but can’t fault his dedication to our Great Britain 🇬🇧
Now it's time for Kirby to get Eddie bespoke shoes!
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
Now.....I can't wait to see the shirt Eddie! So fun.
Coming this Saturday!
Eddie is truly a gentleman. Thanks for the video.
Eddie’s and Kirby’s relationship is such a lovely thing to see. Genuine, caring. Well done gents.
I have to say, Darren is just fantastic! What a pure gent and what knowledge he carries about shirt making!
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!
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.
This channel is always so relaxing people that actually care about quality over quantity still around in the world.
Showing the world about friendship. 🍻
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.
Can't wait to watch the full video!
Great video, Kirby the cut of your suit is amazing, especially on the shoulders.
So awesome. So fun to watch these gentlemen share their passions.
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!
Excellent video! Thank you for taking us on this journey between 2 great friends
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.
@@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
@@modern.performer yeah sure, good luck on your "entrepreneur" adventure. 😂
@@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
Such a pleasure to watch all of your videos my friend full of such Knowledge and history. I always look forward to the next.
Excellent work Kirby!
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!
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.
I can't wait for the 2nd part 😍 Really good friendship ❤❤ you don't see nowadays🙏🙏
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.
Classy gentleman as always
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.
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 😌😴🧡
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.
The moment of truth that i am waiting for....thanks Kirby!
Great addition.
I need a friend like Kirby asap.
Excellent production
Love the colour of the suit you’re wearing
Being from America I love that you are speaking in yards and inches instead of the metric system.
One day i will own bespoke suits. Cant wait. But it will happen for sure!
Great learning about Winchester collars and cuffs.
Looking forward to seeing Eddie's Blancpain/Swatch 50 fathoms.
Suit, shirt...only shoes to go Eddie!
Eddie is a class act. Firm handshakes 🫱🏻🫲🏼
Time for Eddie to upgrade to a real Omega 😊 The Speedmaster Professional would look great on his wrist! 👍🏻
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.
Love these videos, even if it bollocks really blowing smoke
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.
amazing
Cool, sophisticated, classy gentlemen. Such a rarity today.
That is awesome. Please show the completed suit.
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.
Also on the journey of bespoke, one mustn't forget about a visit with Wil, it's been so long!
Now only the bespoke John Lobb captoe oxfords in black are missing!
Is it just me or has the already brilliant production kicked up a notch recently?
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
Sea dweller is a Rolex my good friend. You were thinking of fifty fathoms! Anyway enjoyable video, keep up the good work!
Kerby, I think you make fun of him, that's very eugenical!
That suit looks good Kirby. If you've a good tip for a brogue style boot tan...
Looking impeccable, men. I love Eddie’s tie knot.
Again great
. Hope you gonna make an new episode with kent haste ..
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....
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 ?
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 😂
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.
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.
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
Very good but just like Terry Haste, I find cocktail cuffs much more interesting than the ordinary barrel version.
Wonderful Kirby. Are there still plans to release content from your trip to Italy with Eric Jensen?
It’s no gift, Kirby. Like you said - once you go bespoke, you can’t go back. Speaking as a fellow addict. Lol.
you close your eyes and when you hear kirby talking it sounds exactly like it's tom cruise talking...exactly the same
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!
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?
Kirby is helping Eddie to spend his fortune 😂
So who's the consummate shirt maker, Budd or Lachter?
First a suit now a shirt … whatever next - a pair of Y-fronts?
Great insight into something I am unlikely ever to experience,may I ask how much this all
costs?
Where these excellent music pieces you take from for your videos.
And please, do take him to GC for a propper pair of George Loafers. Or wholecuts.
Kirbyyyyy cuban vlog plzzz where is it lol jk. I bet its going to be amazing if its taking this long to edit.
Kirby...... A TRUE AMERICAN SALESMAN! 😂
How does Kirby know about Eddie’s upper body strength?
😊🤭
I'll retire in 2 years. I will be 62. I will visit Eddie in his Cigar Shop.
I’m sure he’d be honored to receive you!
Do we get to see the final suit and shirt together?
Is the suit Mr. Sahakian is wearing the finished product from Henry Poole?
Kirby you have done marvelous job I wish you could by me a. Suit
I'd love to be able to afford a beapoke shirt, alas I just go through shirts too quickly...
hi Kirby first 2min. (intro) whats with your left shoulder , (jaket), symetric to the other side?
Where’s the Cuba series
I don’t want come across as an arse, but you are ever so slightly out of focus during the introduction, Kirby. Might I suggest your videographer opt to ‘stop down’ the aperture a bit and use a reflector to light you more? I don’t know if he’s doing it now (your overall production value is why I love your videos), but the focus is just catching my eye. Don’t stop the videos. Keep going from strength to strength 💪
Who is playing intro music?
Sahakian wears a sock for a tie!
