Bespoke Linen Masterpiece: My New Suit from Kent Haste & Lachter | Final Fitting | Kirby Allison

[@flightgamer7849]

All the best wishes for John's health.

[@wt460]

I wish Mr John Kate had not lost his health, and I too wish him the very best along with the + thousands of others that wish him health. Further I wish he had a couple more years in him for the beautiful suits he makes.

[@gmosi8198]

Suyamba is a breath of fresh air. Witty and professional.

[@jfar3340]

agreed. Shows that you can be professional in a midriff baring top.

[@barrenschat4520]

One of the best so far, the interaction has become very natural despite everyone being on camera.

[@wt460]

This young woman is not only a great young tailor, but she is also a gorgeous young woman. I’m sure her parents are so proud of her and her husband is a very lucky young man!!!

Had the chance to pop in a few weeks ago and talk to Terry Haste and he's such a convivial man. Very easy to talk to, kind and humourous. Would certainly love to commission something great from them in the future.

Ok. I need to stop watching these videos so much but can't stop. Love the interactions between everyone. Good videos to watch before falling asleep. Can't wait for more Kent Haste videos. What a future Suyamba has. Learning from the best.

[@humpherylin8724]

All the best for speedy recovery for John. Just love these gents! It always feel so lighthearted and cozy when they’re around. Gotta work hard to some day have a suit made by them and perhaps become friends in the future. There’s so much to learn from these gents.

"These are braces Suyamba." Terry is already shifting his remarks to his new partner. A new age it is indeed.

[@Weoqyo_Ffdelajrkski08]

How true those word are, even in this day and age!

[@mikewinston8709]

I popped in on the 4th Jan and ordered a pair of trousers. Terry was completely first class and guessed exactly which cloth I was looking for. I mustn’t forget either the delightful Mollie who measured me. Roll on the first fitting.

[@ARlELATOM]

It’s a real pleasure watching your journey and learning process.

[@leanmachinepainting1016]

The shirt is near perfection, look forward to the finished suit.

[@BFBrown3]

“Our Man Havana”. Loved that reference.

[@Rob-cv3vh]

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this, such a beautiful suit and shirt. The wry humour and the great relationship between you all is a joy to watch. Hope to bump into you in London again, thank you for the work that you do.

[@jameschan7764]

It’s rare to see shoulder pleats and back darts on the same shirt. But it’s actually very practical. Pleats for better arm shoulder movement whilst darts for closer fit around the waist. Will try that for my next custom shirt.

[@clivejohnson9515]

That is exactly the relationship I have with my tailor. It makes t less of a chore and more fun - for both parties! BTW, that shrt really doe compliment that but perfectly1!

[@waxedearth5425]

Linen is the best investment I’ve made in clothes. The material is so lightweight and breathes. Stayed cool all summer, even with sleeves down, looking forward to doing it again this summer.

Wow this is great suit. They’re very good tailors. I will see them if need a bespoke suit.

[@bheinatz1]

Man, that is some beautiful linen! 👍 Great job on the suit, gents! 👏👏👏

[@sbaumgartner9848]

I love the shirt, especially the collar. As Stephen pointed out Kirby has a long neck so he suits this size and shape of collar. I also love the colour of the linen suit and the blue suspenders. I'm sure the quality is amazing. But what surprised me was needing to have the extra fabric around the lower back armholes; they are the first thing I questioned but I trust what Terry said was needed. I'm also so pleased to see a female in the group - lovely Suyamba.

[@bertyaustin]

I missed Suyamba, she speaks so beautifully, not to mention her amazing smile and skills :)) P.S. This suit needs a darker shirt, navy blue for example :)

[@Lanark83]

Fabulous. Makes me miss home. Fabulous team producing fine fine work!

[@poisonlinknpark]

Hard to watch these videos and not be jealous of Kirby lol. Love the Kent and Haste videos in particular!

[@sackwhacker]

@@Weoqyo_Ffdelajrkski08 In comparison to some of the firms on Saville Row, they are quite affordable!

This suit looks impeccable 👍

[@chocolatejellybean2820]

such gentleman would love to trade with them, popped in once for a few mins, they are authentic, really fantastic genuine traders. Sadly I'd never be able to afford a 4000 pound suit not get the us from it but happy to see other wear and enjoy them.

[@williamkazak469]

Very interesting. I didn't realize how particular a shirtmaker can be making such minor adjustments. I like the Italian discussion. Their clothes seem so very tight looking to my eye. I would not want the Italian look. I like patch pockets on a linen jacket like this one. I have seen photographs of some of the elegant movie stars from the past wearing jackets with patch pockets with a pocket square. I like double vents on jackets. Each to their own. Thank you for all involved in making this video.

[@thechairman74]

A linen jacket or suit definitely suggests increased casualness and I've always loved the look of patch pockets all around, especially with a ticket pocket. The other nice thing with patch pockets is that you can give them the bellows design like with shooting jackets or a wine glass shape for that extra added visual flair that you can't do with flap pockets.

[@frederickbanjoman9482]

Mr Allison, I do enjoy your videos. This one is entertaining and nice ot enjoy with my early morning coffee.

Love the shirt collar. Cloth too is lovely. I think it might be the best shirt you’ve done.

[@whiteboxvolume]

Great Video, Kirby. I'd love to get a suit and shirts made by Kent Haste and Lachter - you're a lucky man!

[@Andy-b3y]

I’m so sad to see John’s no longer there, but KH&L are the dream team! I love their clothes and adore their dry subtle wit. Suyamba’s “Radiant Sir” might be lost on you Kirby, so check out a few episodes of “The Fast Show” (Suits You) and it’ll all make sense!

[@markcrawford4912]

Hi Kirby I really enjoy watching your content and learning and the true English gentleman it’s very therapeutic also especially when you’re having your fittings. I hope you don’t mind me asking how much would one of these suit cost I’m assuming it’s not cheap but I’ve always been curious

[@brianotoole8666]

I'm sorry, but I just can't watch this without John. I'm praying for a full recovery so that we can hear more of the banter between him and Terry!

[@Check.Your.Sources]

I think that collar works quite well with the suit. The wider collar wouldn’t be properly accentuated by the suit. It’s the right choice in my opinion.

[@kevinpriggert6501]

amazing, love it

[@benjaminblakemore9704]

Does a colar normally 🤔 sit over a pocket? Apart from that its really beautiful Kirby 😊❤ that shirt is lovly too

[@joeblow502]

just found your channel recently and have been binging all your videos kirby... thank you for sharing your love of some of the finer things in life and letting us live vicariously through your wonderful videos i have a couple questions perhaps you could address in a future q and a video? 1-what methods do you use for cleaning and maintaining all your clothes? how often should suits be cleaned? 2-i know you prefer bespoke brands but are there any more common names (ie polo or lacoste for example) that you enjoy and wear frequently? thanks again for all your work on this channel and looking fwd to more of your london adventures

[@standstand6569]

Beautiful suit 👍

[@guitar911rock]

Four grand for a fully bespoke suit seems quite reasonable, given the amount of hours that goes into this the hourly wage seems fair!

[@doriangray6633]

Suyamba seal of approval 💝

[@JefeGotSoul]

This was an enjoyable watch and a very well selected Linen cloth for a summer suit especially in Texas weather. Just curious to know if there was a specific reason to have this linen suit fully lined instead of opting for half-lining or no lining? Wouldn't this affect the breathability of the linen cloth?

[@DecemberNames]

I absolutely loved this video! The positive vibes were contagious, and I found myself smiling and feeling inspired throughout the entire thing. The editing was fantastic, and the message was so uplifting. It's the perfect pick-me-up for anyone who needs a little boost of positivity in their day. Highly recommend!

Wouldn't it be better to wash the fabric before you make the shirt so that you wouldn't have to worry about the shrinking of the shirt?

[@sirrandolphnettleby3114]

Some shirt makers used pre shrunk shirting material. My first shirt was by Hilditch & Key well over 20 years ago they used pre shrunk on all their shirts at the time.

[@BeinnEdraGlamaig25]

Just wear it in the gym for an hour.

[@brendanwong4140]

the trimmings inside the shirt also shrink so it must be washed.

[@kgopotsogeoffreymogane5154]

Hi, Kirby! Geoffrey here all the way from South Africa, I really enjoy watching your mirror shining videos I literally shine my shoes while watching. I would like to make a request for a short video on incorporating Golf shirts and Panama hats into classic style. I live a dry and warm climate similar to Texas. If the request is accepted I would like to share one of my own put together outfits for gentlemen's critique on your channel for display.

[@locker011]

Kurt “Hollow Backshots” Allison

[@Trindal]

Just with the shirt, I have loads of questions… Would it be possible to have the materials shrunk ahead of time that way you keep the fit as exact as possible? If the buyer isn’t going to use it with a tie, do you modify the collar for a more relaxed fit? If they aren’t going to fasten the top button but wants the opening higher or lower than the normal second button from the top, do you design the shirt holes and buttons accordingly? (If that makes any sense..) I’ve had a few back surgeries and take meds that have caused me to gain weight. Finding a shirt and suit off the rack is very difficult, I would love to see how a bigger person gets fitted for a custom shirt or suit.

Got my first linen suit this year in a lighter shade of navy. Very happy so far as the color is so versatile I can pair it same as Navy blazer or odd jacket and quite appropriate for the office. My only challenge is getting used to the natural wrinkles of the linen. It's just a look I'm not used to.

[@qarhsi]

as for the shirt, the fabric looks great. however, it was too roomy in the body and the stripes on the yoke were not matched to the stripes on the sleeves. for a bespoke service, that is disappointing.. the suit looks well done. i like how the jacket looks on you from the side. not a fan of the 3 button look due to the shorter lapels. but the squarer patch pockets look quite pleasing!
