GREAT Intro - love it Brian - raising the bar for everyone :)

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks, my friend! Appreciate you chiming in!

[@djtechno95]

How about how to wear a trilby/fedora hat with a suit?

[@hespokestyle]

@@Victor-fw5md We've never met in person but have connected occasionally over the past eight years!

[@bobhaverbeck7585]

Hat tip to Demetrius!

[@ajaysingh-ls7yp]

Loved the intro, definitely looking forward for more of that.

[@hespokestyle]

Sweet! Glad to hear it!

Exceeding expectations with that intro.

[@hespokestyle]

We aim to please!

[@cryptoflippodcast]

Great intro *Who else thought the turtle neck was the best??* 😤👋👋

[@hespokestyle]

Many thanks!!

[@dturtleneck]

The turtleneck was the best, I agree.

[@EmperorOfSomething]

Yep, this convinced me to bite the bullet and purchase a couple turtlenecks.

[@matrafa]

I’ve always been tie guy, but Brian has convinced me that a turtle neck can be a great alternative.

[@ImMatej]

These suit combinations remind me of movies like "Tenet" and "Inception"...Very elegant.

[@hespokestyle]

Many thanks, Matej!

[@ZeroGRacer]

Elegant with not much effort. Good style is always simple & timeless. This is Perfect!

[@HotelBravo556]

I know this vid is two years old so you probably don’t care about this algo boosting comment, but you asked for input on the intro. I thought it was great! Not too long, but clever and well executed. You are truly the menswear KZbin goat.

[@prithvirajcd]

There’s nothing more I look forward to than HSS videos! And is there any possibility of you making a rainy season styling video? 😄

[@hespokestyle]

Great idea!

[@matrafa]

Yes, for us guys in Seattle.

[@valeoxis]

best intro, best-dressed actor, production level through the roof. 20/10 would recommend.

[@hespokestyle]

YEAH! Thanks!

[@arsarcanum1123]

I can picture Brian as the old school detective in 40s or 50s with all that outfit, cigarette, notebook and you can't tell me he doesn't look badass 👍🏽👍🏽

[@hespokestyle]

Haha. Cheers!

[@giorgiolelioaratasolar2386]

Really cool intro! I’m glad you’re experimenting with funny or more creative ways to deliver your content! This particular one turned out cool, but the sole fact you’re trying new things for the channel it’s fantastic. Great job!

[@atomtamamoto6930]

That intro was great! Very creative and humourous. I just recently bought my first gray suit and so this video could not have come any sooner. I was hesitant that I could only get two looks with it but this video proved me wrong. Loved every look!

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome! Thank you! Glad to be of service.

[@DemetriosLevi]

As a filmmaker who loves intro skits...that was perfect!! The film noir lighting was spot on Also that turtleneck and the retro polo look are awesome...right up my alley

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks, man! Much appreciated

[@bobhaverbeck7585]

Couldn't help but think of your videos.

[@robertschneider2189]

My Dad sported that last look of the suit with the collar worn outside in the 1950s. That is one of my early memories of him in Florida, in a grey suit with the collar outside of the suit lapel. That was nearly 70 years ago, showing again that there is not much new in the world. We repeat things from time to time. Thanks for the memory.

[@hespokestyle]

You're very welcome, Robert!

[@georgiosyiannakou5537]

Very aesthetically pleasing looks Brian!

[@carne4987]

Your intro put a big smile on my face....keep it up! Love your style, very chic and impeccable.

[@hespokestyle]

That makes me happy. Thanks for the comment.

[@YoniBonzi]

Awesome intro! Like it very much. For look #4, turtlenecks are such a great combination with suits. "Sophisticated" is a great description for it.

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome!

[@JoeAbrams1287]

Very cool intro! Favorite style is of course the one with turtleneck - thank you again for inspirations, Brian! Have a nice day!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much! Glad to hear you liked the intro,.

[@tiepilot8875]

Great video Brian ! Really love the intro, very nice way to add something fun to the vid while keeping the vibes of the channel ! Looking forward to seeing more :D

[@hespokestyle]

Absolutely! Thanks again!

[@robertr7111]

The intro was fun! Have you any thoughts on mid-gray vs slate/dark gray suits Brian? (I'm looking at the sale at Kilgour at the moment).

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks! Mid-grey would be my choice!

[@richardhanleyjr5024]

Intro was dope🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 loved it!

[@yussofross1417]

Amazing video! I'm waiting on my bespoke charcoal suit that was made last month. Can't wait to test it in these variations once it's ready.

[@hespokestyle]

Great! Hope you love it.

[@macaronijones1]

Love the intro - content has been A+ as always, Brian!!

[@Aaronheirofisildur]

That Intro was brilliant! Being frank it took me completely by surprise! As always Big Kuddos!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks again!

[@brettlarson3801]

Great intro! Loving your channel Brian, learning so much.

[@hespokestyle]

Glad to hear it!

[@daningram9797]

Loved the intro! Definitely grabs your attention.

[@hespokestyle]

Much appreciated!

Thanks! Will do!

[@chrisfox5597]

Good introduction. Great video as usual! Happy Holidays to you and your family!

[@hespokestyle]

Same to you! Thanks!

[@omegaseamaster300m4]

The Datejust looks sooo Sharp!

[@Mithrahin]

Brilliant opening! Beautifully done. Keep up the good work!

[@EsteemedImage]

Intro was amazing! 🙌🏾 would love to see more of that from you!

[@hespokestyle]

More to come!

[@matrafa]

Great intro!!! Just when I thought your vids couldn’t get any better...

[@hueknew]

All looks are A+ but anything with tasseled loafers are my favorite! Well done sir 👌🏽🙏🏽

[@hespokestyle]

Glad you like them!

[@liamcox9043]

Loved the intro!! Very good tie-in

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks! Glad to hear it!

[@georgeagiotis352]

Keep up the high quality work 👏

[@joeygardunio9792]

Lol loved it. In truth I almost thought I hit the wrong video! Great video and I like the humor. Grey is my favorite of the men's color palette.

[@hespokestyle]

Glad it piqued your interest!

[@westernmike365]

That intro tied it altogether! Can’t wait to wear my solid charcoal suit with my white shirt and red navy power tie or as a blazer with Jeans. Like subtle suits a lot. Salute.

[@radmannavazani1860]

That was an interesting idea for the intro. Made me double check the title of the video to make sure its about gray suit. Wish to see more like this.

[@MrShinobi797]

Thanks for this Brian. I requested it ( some time ago ) and you delivered...RESPECT!! 👊🏾

[@hespokestyle]

You got it!!!

[@zeygil2700]

Intro was a great touch! Perhaps not on every video, but on occasion to keep em on their toes. Leveling up, Brian! 👌🏽

[@hespokestyle]

Exactly!

[@christopherprevost763]

Very fun intro! I have noticed you started wearing one of the on topic outfits during your commentary. Thank you for the great videos!

[@hespokestyle]

That was the idea.... :)

[@wesleydenzel5791]

I LOVED THE INTRO!!!

[@chadbissell1861]

Great looking suit. Clever intro. Great ideas as usual.

[@dainforsythe7129]

LOL - another great intro. Fun. We need this right now. Thank you, brother.

[@hespokestyle]

Very welcome

[@blakecooper2262]

I was just sitting down to eat my breakfast when I saw you had a new video up. Morning. Made. Lovely as always Brian.

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome! Love to hear that! Thanks so much.

[@ginosinacore6974]

The intro was amazing! Definitely would love to see more like it

[@hespokestyle]

Sweet!!

[@alexmadworld4691]

Amazing intro ! I really enjoy it and I hope you had fun doing it !

[@hespokestyle]

We did. It was literally like five minutes of shooting and two hours of lighting it.

[@sammitkhandeparker8211]

Very classy. Loved it.

[@asujongs]

Something new, something cool to be watching a fashion lookbook video with a movie taste in the intro. Love the content 👌👍❤

[@hespokestyle]

Glad you liked it!!

[@SartorialStyles]

Very Demetrios Levi like intro, good job! The outfits are awesome as well. I have a very similar suit to the one you have been wearing throughout this video, but I always struggle to dress it down. This really gave me some inspiration!

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@sylvainhouben2297]

Lovely intro. In the dark light I first expected that peak lapel to be a Tom Ford suit, especially with that black grenadine tie!

[@hespokestyle]

Could have been, but it was HSS MAB!

[@takochg]

The intro is sick Brian!!! Loved it!!!

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome. So glad to hear it.

[@pedrodasneves6645]

Love the intro - dynamic, unique, and on point Let's see more in the future

[@MrMarcoberti98]

Wow Brian! That intro is just fire! And your acting skilss though... Huge praise!

[@hespokestyle]

Many thanks, Marco.

[@sanderbrusse9452]

Great intro! great looks!

Great intro. Really clever! Keep up the good work!

[@hespokestyle]

Appreciate that.

[@Pierredoa]

Awesome intro!! More of this!!

Gave you an immediate like just by watching that intro!! Loved it!!

[@hespokestyle]

You're the best! Awesome!

[@jackshingange6043]

The intro was awesome...it kept me glued to the video

[@hespokestyle]

Glad you liked it!

[@yakub1695]

Haha the intro had really cool shadows! Keep it up man

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks! Will do! Rob is a lighting master.

[@armandol1826]

Matching gray waistcoat and trousers paired with both a Burberry scarf and Sandringham coat is my go to outfit

[@leandrocomas3700]

I liked the intro too. Keep them coming!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks! Will do!

[@justcaused6182]

That wedding outfit was the exact same outfit, but with a matching vest, that I wore to my brother's wedding. I kid you not, when I entered restrourant and walked down the stairs, everyone's eyes were on me! Great video!

[@hespokestyle]

So cool!

[@scottchudley8646]

GREAT INTRO...Loved it!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!

[@Timmers01]

Love that intro & the lapels on this one!!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much!!

[@danielgripp6476]

Loved the intro. It really made me smile.

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome! Glad to hear!

[@mayank_rajawat]

The best dressed man strikes again I wonder is there anything that Brian sir didn't delivered til yet 👌👌

[@hespokestyle]

I'm sure there is... we'll keep pushing the envelope here and there!

[@SonnyJacobLee]

THAT OPENING SEQUENCE WAS PRICELESS HAHAHAHA MOARRRR

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!

[@aminrick83]

Loved the intro!!

[@kennethtrainor4842]

Amazing intro and great advice as always!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much, Kenny.

[@kennethtrainor4842]

@@hespokestyle What is your opinion on turn-ups on suit pant legs? I see you have them on your grey suit. As someone new to suits, and looking at going to get my first suit pants hemmed I found myself wondering about the appropriateness of them for a business suit. Thanks, Brian!

[@joseknight1522]

Wow! Loved That intro.

[@nicolasalonzo52]

Great intro! And great raincoat! My first suit was a grey one...I remember that I was looking for a black one...for work! Fortunately the seller advised me.

[@hespokestyle]

Good choice!

[@phillip_reynolds]

Very cool intro to another great video.

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much!

[@kmmorrin]

Honestly one of the best intros I've seen in a while! Kudos.

[@hespokestyle]

Amazing! Thanks!

[@celinesdomenech2616]

Terrific intro. Captivating, classy and playful, a winning combination.

[@ConkreteMan]

That intro!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@hespokestyle]

Many thanks!

[@abrahamgarcia4841]

Haha great intro!! I was trying to figure out were it was going and then it made total sense.

[@hespokestyle]

Yes! Mission accomplished.

[@mach183]

I always go back to this video .. look #1 bests everything !!!!!!! 🔥

[@doctoradeel9136]

that intro ? perfect and more videos needed

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much!!!

[@sohaibrshakir]

Intro was so good, I subscribed lol

[@truongtran1602]

It is beyond my expectation, to be honest. I won't normally skip your intro anw because I considered it's a daily message I would love to hear but this time, you made me and your viewer really surprised haha. You nailed it!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!!!!

[@aPixelcoffee]

You killed it with that intro! Very cool. Liked all the looks-the last one may benefit from notch lapels!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!

[@zuhriyuhyi]

Brilliant intro. Keep it coming good sir.👍

[@aget19]

Love to see the great Nicholas Foulkes “Cigars” book on your shelf

[@hespokestyle]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheFranticgamer]

Nice intro. It was a cool change. Last time you did the navy suit version I had just bought a navy suit. Ironically I just bought a gray suit. So perfect timing again.

[@hespokestyle]

Nice! Glad to help out!

[@johnw235]

Love the opening.

[@xaxis1200]

WTF Brian... that's a brilliant start..quality content..loved the lighting and expressions on your face..bedroom role play side effects? :P just kiddin :D .looking forward to many such "acts" :D

[@waltski4375]

Love the gumshoe intro and the turtleneck look. ~ Cheers!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks so much!

[@antoniopineda8680]

Brian could you do a video on how you get your trousers done? I love the look of the cuff and would love to know how to do it myself!

[@hespokestyle]

Good idea.

[@gordonmiller1]

Good intro. It was fun, and lightened things 🙂

[@e-rod8265]

Man that intro was great . More often please. Great video brother, can’t go wrong with Grey suits. 👍

[@hespokestyle]

More to come! Time consuming to shoot but worth it!

[@danielduggan5405]

Thanks, Brian, as always! Intro was fun - it's nice to remind people that wearing a suit doesn't have to be stuffy. Honestly, this is one of the videos I've been waiting to see the most. I personally prefer a gray suit to a navy. Love the peak lapels. I think no. 2 is probably my favorite. Patterns and colors dress the gray down wonderfully. Keep up the great work! Any chance we'll get to see one of these videos for one of your gray flannel suits (DB, hint, hint)? 😉

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks, Daniel. I've featured the grey flannel quite a bit. Last year's winter capsule wardrobe had it as a foundational suit.

[@phucpham2594]

Please keep doing this kind of intro hahaha. Great style like always!!

[@hespokestyle]

You'll see it from time to time!

[@jdavid1256]

Excellent and creative intro -- well done. Also, I enjoyed the details about staying classic and under the radar when attending a wedding. Definitely shows respect and intentionality for the bride and groom. Would you use a fragrance to add a touch of personality/intrigue like you suggest for black tie, or do would you stay toned down to avoid making a statement?

[@williamcook3991]

Intro was awesome!

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!!

[@Tailorandbarber]

Great intro! Definitely grabbed me! Do you think the polo and suit look needs a peak lapel to have the collar over the lapels?

[@r.specht6790]

woaaah the intro!!! You nailed it

[@r.specht6790]

Didn't watch the video yet but it can only be excellent

[@hespokestyle]

Thanks!

[@hespokestyle]

Hope you enjoy the rest of the video too.
