I am a new female subscriber and love the information because I love the classic look of a well dressed man. Thanks for the hard work on the videos and more importantly the clothing information.
The battery powered shaver thingy is the way to go, hands down. Bought one years ago, and have had great results! Cheap, too. Amazon, or Joann Fabrics. Done.
I cannot get enough of this channel. It's done so well and I've learned so much! The problem is I leave the channel and go shopping and now I need another closet!
If there is any sort of content in 2100 about fashion, people will reference these three blokes as being the last stronghold of classical menswear in history
Love the vibe, you made fabric pilling interesting, educational and watchable. My only wish is that you had put the fabric comb in your product list. There are about 3 million on Amazon with varying reviews and I don’t want to get one that ruins my clothes…I still found your video very informative. At least I have a direction to go. Thank you!
Great video! My favorite method is the sweater comb - never going back! I used to use the scissors method and stopped when I accidentally cut a hole in one of my cashmere sweaters :(
Incredible great, eye opening, stuning! It was there for sure all the years. Could not stop finding spills everywhere and LOVE IT TO GET RID OF! Day by day clothes, ceilings even pillows get his first day look back. Thank you so much sharing this and even do it so entertaining.

Spectator shoes were popularized in the 30's, but got their namesake from spectators, and especially referees, of sporting events. Spectator shoes are less formal than a derby and more formal than monk straps. They're best worn with informal suits, although I have seen black spectators worn at maximum with stroller suits in 30's illustrations (and done so myself). Keep to classic styles of brown/black and white leather. Pair your belt to the non-white leather. Make sure your outfit is subtle enough to accomodate louder shoes like these. Lastly, shining them professionally might be best if you're unsure about your own ability to polish two-tone shoes.
using a cheap shaving rasor is actually a thing I did during my military service. we'd shave our barretes in order to remove the fuzz (and thus, the bulk they create). we'd actually joke around that those who dont shave their barretes have a "cat" on their shoulder/head, since they were so fuzzy and bulky it looked like an animal from a distance XD
Thank you. Your video was very informative and helpful. PS. Do you know a technique to ‘unshrink’ a wool sweater? I’m thinking hair conditioner to loosen the matted fibers. What are your thoughts?
Please read this comment I have tried to tell you guys this in so many videos can you do a video about parker fountain pens and I'm a huge fan of this channel
I got a new dress 4 days ago. Wore it today for the first time and my barbour apparently rubbed it a bit creating on the dress's soft material some annoying fuzz balls. I am debating throwing it away but this would be so wasteful and somehow wrong, after having worn it only once. Let's hope your video will save my classy Italian dress. :D
I don't think we'll see it any time soon. Frock coats were done away by Edward VIII in the 30's. While you may see them once in a very rare while for some traditional ceremony, they're not really seen in practical settings such as the Royal Ascot Derby or traditional English weddings, which are practically the only times a man will wear morning dress anymore.
Hey guys. I enjoy watching your videos and recently has made a first purchase from GG. I have a suggestion for one of future videos: best suit brands for tall people 6.2 and above. I can't really find a good brand from Italy or France that has 106 size. It's all for shorter people. Suitsuply - yes, but other than that can't find any brands. Any suggestions?!
Question No.1 : Why must we use both a sweater comb and a garment's brush in order to remove any pilling? Question No.2 : What softener do you suggest for European customers? :/
I've found that a pocket knife works just as well in a pinch as a cheap razor. Though, probably better for tighter weaves than for knitwear. Just need to be careful about cutting the fabric, but it's the same idea as shaving
Hi GG Team, Entertaining and Informing as always. I wanted to propose a content idea. I’ve recently acquired a copy of Emily Post’s Etiquette and I am enthralled. The guidelines of gentlemanly behavior are so apparent yet so nuanced. I think a series of videos going through each section of the book would be very well received - providing commentary, exceptions, anecdotes. There are etiquette videos on the channel, but this book is universal and goes incredibly in depth. Cheers and thank you as always
@@JoJo-xp6wr Depends on what you have to carry. I'd argue it's a stylish detail, but it's not worth breaking your arm over. Keep in mind most businessmen don't have to run around with numerous textbooks. I used to carry a black canvas bag with leather details. It allowed me to carry a couple of textbooks, along with other schooling essentials all the while looking more stylish than a backpack. Just remember that you may not be able to even fit a single textbook in one of those.
Typically you'll want a horse-hair clothing brush. I use a lint remover made of a sort of velcro-like fabric that is pushed one way and picks up those things.
How do I remove pilling from suits? I recently acquired a 30%cashmere 70% wool POW check and the pilling in certain places removes the crisp of the pattern
The issue I'm experiencing is fast fashion...If I buy a 300€ italian cashmere sweater, no pilling! But a 20%wool, 80% acrylic Zara knit that cost €30 gets pilling within the first use!
@@GangBlud you have to go over the pilled area a few times in different directions and don't press hard. i have a phillips one that came with a spare head for short length fibre things like cashmere. ive never used it.
Preston might just be the biggest weapon in menswear history
He’s a registered lethal weapon in 48 states...
Embracing Preston's robot vibes alins pretty well with GG's recommendations on being more likelable
An added note for those who wear synthetic fabrics is that sun exposure will damage the fibers over time as well and cause pilling.

Thank you for covering this topic. Great for men and women to know about clothing and care.
Throw them out, they are not worth the effort.
The "dark" intro ACTUALLY scared me a bit. :)

I live in merino wool and I’ve never been brave enough to try this method. I’m glad I didn’t now.
Rarely does a search for info yield EXACTLY what I needed. Thank you for this video.
That intro really threw me for a loop! Great video as usual, Preston!

Those. Hands. ♡
Preston, you're simply awesome!
Such a great episode. I learned some great pointers here. Well done.
Awesome Homburg, Sven, I’m such a great admirer of Homburgs.. Love them!
You guys should a update on the spectator shoe! I have a pair from the 50s and I have no idea how to wear them!
have you tried on your feet ?
@@dqalombardi not yet, it comes in tomorrow.

He’s great. Valuable information, delivered professionally and efficiently. Thank you.
Good to see you using a Black model-seldom seen on fashion channels.👍🏽
Omg the pun at the end. I'm living for it!

Same, I still use a lighter to singe the fuzz on my coat cuffs and collar.
I love the beginning hahaha.
Great video. 👍👍

We're sure to consider more fountain pen content in the future, Edward! Thanks for watching.

Please make video about frock coats.

@@themoderndandy713 Well I have two frock coats, so thats why I asked, but you might be right.

My wife uses a simple throw away razor. Works like a charm. Cheap
Question No.1 : Why must we use both a sweater comb and a garment's brush in order to remove any pilling?

My coat and sweater is both pilling, but that is because of the friction between my arm and side of my upperbody
I've found that a pocket knife works just as well in a pinch as a cheap razor. Though, probably better for tighter weaves than for knitwear. Just need to be careful about cutting the fabric, but it's the same idea as shaving
Spooky Preston is fun! Please bring that back for Halloween!
kindly make a video on baselayer for winters
On what else that knits can you use an electric pilling shaver?
I use a fuzz/pill removing shaver like device, very effective!

I LOVE THE INTRO!!!
Lol 😆 the evil face at the beginning.
Nice entry 🤣
Love your videos!
Very informative and helpful, thanks!
10:42 I am still in highschool, I like going out with it, but is it advisable in my age?
With what? Perhaps I can help.
If you like it just do it!
@@themoderndandy713 the briefcase idea

@@themoderndandy713 I understand
Preston is just legit!
I loved the intro... and the content :)
What about fabrics composed of three or more natural fibers? (No synthetics) Are they more likely to pill as well?
Very informational! Thank you!
Thanks for this valuable share.
Well this(probably every video) is helping me for deducing people keep going.
I'm starting to think that Preston is 100% a CGI creation. No one is that perfect.
Pilling gradually weakens the host garment. But what can one do, but buy anew?
In 2024 this helped! The detailed in knowledge well & easy explained thanks!🙏
Can you guys do a review over yeossal???
A Buddy of mine uses a lighter. Would you recommend using one aswell?
Maybe not the best idea.
Using a razor is simple enough, more precise and safer.
Perfect useful information.
2:30 beastly gains, bro! Keep at it!
If adhesive lint rollers are not recommended, what is the best way to remove lint and pet hair from garments?
Typically you'll want a horse-hair clothing brush. I use a lint remover made of a sort of velcro-like fabric that is pushed one way and picks up those things.
Lol lol that intro
Garment care!
Don't wash delicate clothing with jeans
Thks
Très utile merci.
Loved the intro--if you ever leave GG, you can always become a horror channel host, lol
2:29 LOL
How do I remove pilling from suits? I recently acquired a 30%cashmere 70% wool POW check and the pilling in certain places removes the crisp of the pattern
Must be very short fibers if you get pilling on a suit. Never heard such thing.. a suit is so tightly knit compared to a sweater .
May you can make a video "How to dress like Prince Charles"? He is a kind of classic british styling with some own additions, isn´t he?
It seems like my socks pill the most very annoying
The issue I'm experiencing is fast fashion...If I buy a 300€ italian cashmere sweater, no pilling! But a 20%wool, 80% acrylic Zara knit that cost €30 gets pilling within the first use!
Prevent piling: don't wear the garment. Prevent worrying about frivolous, superficial personal appearance: work on your vanity 😁
Birthday suits never pill.
In time your garment gets thinner and thinner the more you remove the pilling. There’s nothing you can do when it comes to knitwear pilling
Bought a beautiful heavy wool blend sweater with a zipper. Yet it's 40% wool, 40% acrylic and 20% something else.. It's pilling really hard :c
So get yourself a depilling machine. Ive got one, its a basic little thing but it makes a difference and rejuvenates the fabric on the sweater.
@@jenniferschmitzer299 I will! Curious what effect it'll have
@@GangBlud you have to go over the pilled area a few times in different directions and don't press hard. i have a phillips one that came with a spare head for short length fibre things like cashmere. ive never used it.
My 50/50 cotton poly t shirts seem to pill the quickest
Up next, water spotting on cars.
Ayyy, Cellulase... NileRed used that to make toilet paper moonshine!
(it breaks down cellulose into sugar... I wouldn't advise washing clothes with something, that will turn them into sugar)
Ok
I feel like my cashmere sweaters pill way more than any other fabric.
Literally i was afraid in start 😶
LOL Preston cant ever be cringe. Just always pulls it off.
Kinks dedicated follower of fashion lol 😆
your amazing. and funny. you should try this with a trans atlantic accent
That pun was a hard pill to swallow 😂
I will never not call them bobbles again.
Could you just remove the background intro music?...I honestly consider it to be annoying
We tested videos with and without and people watch it longer with. I am sorry you find it annoying but the majority does not it seems
calm down preston
As if Preston was not scary enough 😂😂
Intro POV:
You called Preston a robot A.I.
yikes the pun. hahaha
My mom uses tape.
Long story short: Don't even wear clothes
👹
So long story and very boring
