Timeless. Classic. Your grandchildren will wear it with pride.
Hopefully, Nathaniel will be able to wear it one day! That's if the three children don't destroy it first!
$1800! Outstanding price for a fantastic top coat. Love the turn up cuffs for just the right touch; adjustable belted back, perfect!
I had almost the same coat, purchased in 1978 at H Salt in Washington DC. I wore with pride for several years, but not often after moving to southern California. Eventually, I grew out of it and gave it to a cousin who moved to the midwest. A truly lovely coat.
FWIW, I would pair it with a dark gray hat, dark grey or black gloves, and a ivory silk or navy or dark colored tartan cashmere scarf for a truly elegant winter appearance.
This is more a garment for Chicago or New York than for Dallas or Los Angeles, cities where public places are provided with checkrooms to contain heavy outer clothing while visitors are shopping or enjoying performances.
I expected both the wool and Cashmere to cost so much more than that. For a Bespoke coat, that is very good value.
Hey Hombre sorry to bother, but I can’t find the part about the price value. Could you please put the time that they talk about price?
@@AndyRoh 5:00
steven johnsrud thank you so much!
I dont know why someone will buy a brioni or kiton overcoat or some other high end brand when you can get that for only 1800
@@thatxonexguy5438 people nowdays only see the brand not the quality
Amazing coat and reasonably priced for something that should last you a lifetime.
Thanks, Vladimir! You need something like this for Chicago!
Kirby Allison I’m in New York, but I still need it LOL
I have a very heavy double breasted dark brown wool topcoat that I inherited from my father. He had it made when he returned from WWII. It is in great shape and no doubt will last for generations to come as long as I keep moths away. I am only truly appreciating it recently, and it will come in handy in NYC this winter. This topcoat reminds me if it and is outstanding. Mr.Joe H is truly an impressive gentleman. Thank you for the enjoyable video.
Definitely hold onto that! Not only is it special to you because it was your grandfather's, but it was probably made to a higher standard than what you would find today! Some of these vintage cloths are really exceptional!!
I have my great uncle’s tailcoat from the 1930’s. It has a concealed pocket in one of the tails which is still easy to reach. You can put something quite bulky in there without pulling the shape of the coat. Apparently it was common to put a pocket in back flaps of coats (my Uncle was a tailor himself). I don’t know why this is no longer done.
Yes! The big pocket is very useful for an gloves and scarves!
That is a beautiful overcoat Kirby. I love all the details he built into it, especially the peak lapels. Outstanding.
Awesome top coat, I love love love those lapels, they are the best I have seen on any top coat, they really give an air of Class & Elegance , Great choice Kirby.
Absolutely great garment. Very informative as to why , how weight plays such an important role in constructing a Topcoat!
Stunning coat! Elegant lines with the perfect balance of rakishness and formality. The cloth has a beautiful sheen. Double-breasted was the way to go. I want one!
Thank you!! Call up Joe. He'd love to make one for you!
That is an absolutely beautiful coat Kirby!
That Dallas winter looks rough. So rough that you can still wear loafers ;)
Right? Ain't nothing compared to the cold north.
I’m freezing in 60 degrees in Ga
@@thomasbailey4139 That's almost too warm for me haha
You beat me to ribbing him about this. I too wonder what constitutes a cold day in Dallas. Certainly nothing to justify a super heavy topcoat over a heavy cashmere jacket. The folks in the background are wearing light clothing, and KA looks like he’s walking in the Arctic Circle.
@@AT-oj7of I can't speak for Teaxs, but in Arkansas i consider "cold" mid thirties and below. (Fahrenheit)
Humidity and wind chill factor in to make 35 feel like 25.
40s and above I'm wearing a sweater or sweatshirt.
It's rare that I wear anything heavier than my light weight, AE down puffer coat. (Light fill)
And that's a single layer, worn with just a shirt.
Thanks again for a great video. Keep it stylish!
Great looking coat! I grew up in the midwest in the 80s. I remember going shopping on Michigan ave in Chicago and seeing these substantial full length wool coats by Perry Ellis, Ralph Lauren, and Calvin Klein. These were the days of big shoulders, but the coats were still amazing! I like that you went for a classic timeless style. I agree a must have for every well dressed gentleman! Cheers!
Absolutely gorgeous!! congrats!
Brilliant!!!!
100% magnificent fitting, shape and appearance!!!!
Timeless piece of Elegance.
Congratulations.
Wow 😮 what a Beautiful Piece 😮
Awesome, how elegant you look, (so put together).
I sprang for a nice overcoat years ago,I loved it. It was stolen and I haven't considered getting one again until now
Superb overcoat that is very versatile and conservative in colour choice with great details such as martingale belt and vent. The coat is truly an heirloom piece.
Very sleek, awesome color.
Wow. Very impressive top coat. 👍
Beautifully cut classic top coat, very nice 👌
Wow, thats really a beautiful overcoat. Awesome choice and job!
Very beautiful coat!
As a guy that loves 20 degree fahrenheit weather, I would wear an overcoat in a Dallas breeze weather. It's an occasion to wear in the beautiful weather. Imagine the snow wearing such nice outfit. I prefer very cold and dry.
Very beautiful coat👍
That's an extremely nice coat!
Nothing matched at the "London" outfit at the end :D
Great coat, thanks a lot for the video! Congrats on getting this great piece!
*Complains about cold weather and staying warm*
Me: *Laughs in Swedish*
Btw that coat is really beautiful.
Jömpa Me: Best wishes from Russia
@@Kroopnyj1 And hello to you.
😂 Indeed. We don't know anything about staying warm compared to you guys. In Sweden, you wear boots not because they "look cool," but because you need the extra protection at the ankle and lower leg where the trouser opens!
@@kirbyallison Well sure. Not to mention last winter there plenty of regions here that had almost 6ft of snow.
@Anders Nope. Aren't you wearing butt plugs now?
Please do a tour of that hat company! and any place near it that we should be aware of as some of us will want to get a hat or two! Love your overcoat, well done!
Beautiful coat! Greetings from Peru, your channel is very informative and rich. I’ve learned a lot about quality in dress shoes and menswear thanks to you.
That coat is soweeeeet!
Great video thanks Kirby :)
Good jacket for exploring Boston Kirby.
Let's point out joe's suit that looks fantastic! That top coat is is the perfect timeless piece.
Beautiful
This Fall/Winter, I got a Belstaff Milford that is similar but with over sized lapels. It is cut more military style.
Handsome Coat!!
Really like the back of this coat.
I had a double breasted wool overcoat by Canali about 3 years ago but I had to give it to the charity shop because I’d gotten too fat for it. At one point just after I first got it, I had to check the label because I was sure it had a fair bit of Cashmere blend in it. I was wrong though but I was amazed at how very soft it felt to the touch. My next two clothes purchases will be of a navy blazer and a belted tweed overcoat.
Fantastic video Kirby and a beautiful coat too! What was your Inspiration?
Great look, Kirby, you look ready to board Air Force One now! Lol
excellent
Gorgeous top coat 🧥 I can’t seem to find a full length top or over coat here in my city.
Damn that is beautiful
Kirby love this topcoat my friend. Keep being Mr Gq your are what us up in coming men aspire to.
These coats are some of the best on the planet. I love joes work and his son. - btw So as a male you wanna be careful with who sees you using an umbrella. I read a study where predators will target that. It’s a sign of weakness. Basically if your scared of rain or sunlight then they know they can take you on easy. . Luckily for me I never have just rain to deal with. It’s either violent super cells with large hail or drought. Rarely would you get a rain you can walk in without being killed. Lol
Great coat K! All you're missing now is a nice pair of DRESS BOOTS to wear with. Frankly the look at the end of the video looked a little ridiculous with loafers, and I've noticed you have not yet gotten any dress boots (otr or bespoke) in your collection. I know Dallas doesn't require them but they're a cool seasonal addition that helps balance out an outfit proportionally between outerwear, hat and shoes, and they can be stylish as hell. So maybe now's the time for some balmoral or derby boots?
I may not be a wealthy man, but its always worth saving up for incredible garments like these! Thank you for the wardrobe inspiration!
Looks great 👍 you also look super excited to wear it! Lol
Very nice coat indeed. Good decision going 100% wool. Sadly I have a cashmere blend and after 2 years it's starting to show wear in a few areas.
Kirby! You forgot your bespoke tommy gun! Lol love your channel man
🔥
Would be great to see you order a reversible rain/top coat. I'm told very tricky to make. Ps this may be the best fitting garment Joe has made for you.
Joe is Mr International Savile Row
I love this whole look at 19:00 . Dammit. I’m jealous. How long have you been into this type of dressing and how long has it taken you to acquire your wardrobe ? Do you do a garment every year ? Or do you do many suits , coats etc?
Just love the coat Kirby..... is really beautiful, loved the shots and style at the end of the video, I hope you don't take this the wrong way for me... I would have created more contrast, i.e. grey trousers, and grey gloves, or a burgundy colour gloves matching your shoes which are classy, the scarf was just beautiful with the navy blue topcoat... This coat is very much for me a British Navy inspired look and would look good on the any of the Royles... topcoats are a garment that you can get away with not being bespoke as the fit can be a little off, but i think you have made the right chose, really classy, beautiful coat.. love it
Great suggestions! What's great about a beautiful piece like this is that there are so many different ways to wear it!
As beautiful as that is, its not enough for January in NYC.
I wonder if it's possible to do a coat like that with goose down lining?
Very beautiful coat and i liked very much the back side with the belt ect.for my taste i could make it few cm shorter for more uses as casual coat too.Did you know if someone can find this holland and sherry fabric in ready to wear pieces ?
Jesus, i need to save up and get myself a custom coat.
I bought one OTR for $1200. You are telling me that for only $600 more I could have one like you have!! Live and learn.
Kirby, you dress superb. A well dressed man its a rare delight today.
i like my overcoats a little more oversized. normally i wear 48 but with overcoat i buy size 50. because than i can wear it with a guilted vest
Can these style of overcoat be bought of the rack somewhere
Overcoat and Dallas don't compute for me. For travel, certainly. But Dallas?
Kirby have you asked can they help you if you suffer a tear or snag on the fabric, can they fix it.
I saw another coat that I’m interested in that’s an 18 ounce wool. obviously 27 ounces is a great deal warmer but I’m not going to London or New York in the winter time.
is 18 ounces good for most tx weather?
Hey Kirby, since you are in DFW, what do you think of Q Clothier and their suits? They have great fabrics from big names but wasn't sure what you thought of their quality.
Not a big fan. I'd hold out for when Joe comes into town.
Hi Kirby - is there a trench coat manufacturer that you might suggest? Assuming Burberry is the benchmark, I’d be curious to learn about other brands that offer great value and craftsmanship. Thanks.
This jacket should last a lifetime.
Of course, being in Texas, a $50 winter coat should last a lifetime when you only wear it twice a year
Haha. Yes - this is primarily for travel. The other problem with Texas is that it isn't a walking city. You drive everywhere. By the time you've put your overcoat on after getting out of your car, you could already be inside! lol
@@kirbyallison it's the same in NW Arkansas. I dont even bother opening an umbrella unless its pouring. Its simply easier to put on a hat and dash from the car to the door.
What knot did you use for the tie? It's thin, but symmetrical, and has a good depth.
Half Windsor perhaps Russell Bills
No. Old Bertie. He has a tutorial video. Look it up.
@@AT-oj7of Fantastic. Thanks so much!
Old Bertie! Take a look at our tutorial video: th-cam.com/video/Bo_UNvJGucQ/w-d-xo.html
How much did it cost ?
@Kirby Allison: thank you very much for your video and congratulations to you and Mr. Hemrajani for creating this very very beautiful overcoat.
I have a question: would you mind mentioning how tall you are? My tailor said that double breasted topcoats don't flatter the persons that are not so tall.
The topcoat suits you perfectly tho and I would like to compare your height to my body.
Thank you very much in advance
I’m not convinced with the fit of the tailors suit jacket when he’s sat down.
As for the overcoat the vent isn’t to great in my opinion and the collar sits an inch too low for my liking but style is personal preference at the end of the day.
Does he still operate? The website doesn't seem to be working anymore.
I need a new heavy coat, my coat is way too light for the 10 degree f New England days
A topcoat is okay for Texas but for New York, you would need an overcoat. Using this topcoat in New York City, your legs will be so cold. That NY wind.
I think you’re thinking of a Carcoat, which typically falls at the knees. Topcoat / overcoat are really interchangeable terms.
@@kirbyallison Traditional overcoats can fall to the ankle. I have not seen any in America. Even hard to find in Europe. They are very good at keeping the wind of your entire leg.
Maybe called a long overcoat.
New York or London? Really cold? This Minnesotan is laughing!
London doesn't get cold anymore!
I see you more and more with a sort of straight collar instead of a spread collar. Is this on purpose or more random. Or I've never noticed it in the past?
This is just a random T&A shirt that I have.
How is this not an overcoat?
How do we contact Himrajani as their website isn’t functioning right now.
He went bankrupt
Louis Winthorpe lll... Yes or no 🤭
I thought at this weight it would be called an "overcoat" not "topcoat"
The distinctions are really blurred. Primarily semantics.
Since you live in Dallas do you have any experience with Stanley Korshak? I see on Instagram
They have a nice men's offering, for sure. They do some RTW stuff, also. And they have a really good customer team!
It's nice. However, it's a little too formal for me. I like 100% lightweight cashmere, cut to above the knee, single-breasted, no belt .
Sorry do you live in Texas?
Yes. We're based here in Dallas!
Lol
I don't like the belt, or the vent...nice coat otherwise...Holland and Sherry!
Like the style, not sure about the fabric. Surely something much heavier would be more appropriate?
Vintage overcoats, which are much heavier than modern day off the rack overcoats, weighed in between 850g-900g and the coat featured in this video weighs 840g so it’s definitely appropriate for cold city weather
What is the point of those buttons on the front? Decoration?
It’s double breasted which gets inspiration from military uniform. The purpose is to fold more fabric over the torso. But yes the upper buttons are just decorative I believe
That's a very good looking topcoat. Spot on. But the trouser is too long for my taste.
Edwin M. I agree. They do look too long
Not sure I would have gone double breasted as it's difficult to dress down. Maybe a P-coat you could double breast. I disagree that it is for everything. This is more formal.
Sexy and sophisticated!! I love watching the quality in your videos! It has introduced me to the world of good pieces and good behaviors that I am starting to teach my 12 year old. He is fascinated by you and what you do!! Maybe you could do a video aimed towards teenagers to show them the basics of what a proper gentleman needs and should look for in attire. Quality!!!
people that think nyc is cold..... lol
HAHAHA. Where are you living?
My overcoat costs $21,000, which is more than 10 times more than this. What a great value it is!
Hahaha. Not quite!
That is a lovely coat! (please don't put your hands in those pockets though)
Burbery is best coat in the world?
That's a negative, Houston
Short answer. No
Blueberry?
Nice coat but i will not wear it
I fell in love with this piece until he flipped the collar up and the. I became disappointed. As I’ve mentioned before (in the comments of another video) I am a frock jacket man. There’s nothing like a functional double breasted frock as not only does it look nice with the collar up but that top lapel buttonhole when buttoned over across to the other Shoulder turns the coat into a Chinese collar and takes the coat to a higher level and I don’t see that ability with this one . I also like my lapels buttoned open on both sides all the way down , giving the top coat the classic or romanticized “pirate” look really accentuating the A frame cut of the coat as you walk down the street. I started wearing my own in the early 2000s in NYC while others were wearing those sack looking coats and within a few months other frocks started appearing everywhere. My Uniqueness was short-lived but Absolutely nothing beats the look of a classic British Frock (with the two bottoms in the back).
