[@gerardanthony9834]

Terrific segment! Grazie!

[@kenneth7826]

Excellent video..good information..thank you mr. Liverano and assistant.....

[@MattKocot]

This is good advice. Just get as many as possible. They don't wear out as much.

yeah, if money was no object...

@@36424567254 I was mostly playing along with the humor of the Italian master ironer there. If one were to assume that there was no attempt at humor in what he said, then he's definitely not speaking to me at the moment lol.

i like that colour

[@charlesfu33]

I believe he nonstoppingly shouts "Never Iron a Jacket!!!!"

[@MattKocot]

Correct. Only iron if you're too poor to own 20 expensive suits like me!! I only own a cheap one AND a VERY cheap one that doesn't fit so if I want to look presentable at a funeral, the former has to be ironed properly.

@@MattKocot If you are buying a jacket from liverano, you own multiple suits already

Excellent demonstration of how one can maintain their suit garments for years with the right care and handling. What brand of iron are you using and is it a dry or steam iron? I noticed that it was mentioned that a 8 kilo weighted iron should be used for pressing. Thanks for your answer in advance.

[@36424567254]

Liverano did say they use dry iron

[@MattKocot]

@@36424567254 Google returns pictures of kettlebells when I try to search for 8 kg irons. This leads me to believe that the iron they're using in the video is rather expensive.

@@MattKocot I doubt they even make those kind of irons anymore it looks ancient

I don't think my dry cleaner does this its always something wrong when my things come back

[@anasmoriya]

Request to get it back without ironing and then give it to your nearest tailor (bespoke tailor pref). Cleaners spit on your suit when it comes to ironing, pants are ok tho. They press it without love and precision. What seems "off" is that they iron so hard over the flap pockets that they leave marks on the outer fabric underneath. They practically destroy the lapel by ironing a really crisp crease on the lapel. They just lay it flat down and iron over it. I actually sued a dry cleaner over this - sucessfully.

Took me good 60 seconds to realize there was a second person with him talking

[@rimaarts]

Not particularly informative... “now I’ll show you how to iron jacket”... other guy does all the ironing... only thing I learned was “keep the seams forward”.. if video is named how to press jacket, I’d expect at least some degree of explanation of what is it that we are doing, why we are doing things this way, and what to do if you can’t do things this way...

[@MattKocot]

You missed the single most important piece of advice; Don't iron a suit--buy a new one.

[@anasmoriya]

@@MattKocot That was not the point. The point is that usually it´s not necessary since wool suits "iron themselves" practically by putting it on a hanger to rest. Also, YOU/WE shouldn´t iron a suit jacket and leave it to the professionals since some people would just destroy the jacket by ironing the shoulders or the lapel wrong
