Agreed. I find his dress style interesting. A lovely suit but those trousers! I used to buy made to measure and my tailor always said the trousers should kiss the shoes not cover them. The matter of turnups is more controversial. I think it was Edward VI who said that city trousers should never have turn ups. I disagree and loved generous turnups but the overall length of the trousers must still just the kiss the shoe

This is a channel I can feel at ease with. In a world which is becoming increasingly chaotic, crass and vulgar, I long for a calmer, more polite and civilised way. This is how people should conduct themselves. Polite, respectful, articulate and intelligent. Unfortunately it is marginalised, as society so often now seeks to accommodate the lowest common denominator, instead of instilling values and insisting that standards are improved. It takes effort and discipline to hold yourself to higher standards, which is perhaps why so many take the easier option. Keep up the good work Kirby, your channel is a welcome oasis on here.

A gentleman is so much more than what he wears and that is why I enjoy this channel so much. Kirby Allison lives those ideals: from shining his own shoes to the proper care and attention given to articles of clothing to help you look and feel your best. Most importantly, he shows that the more effort you put into it, the more you get from that effort. Never is it about the cost, its about the quality and the value gained from that quality. A $500+ pair of shoes may seem a lot to pay but if you take the time to properly care for those shoes, they will last for years and years. Compare that with a $30 pair that lasts 6 months or even a $200 pair that last 1-2 years: The less expensive options just aren't made of materials that can be repaired nor do those materials respond to the care and attention given to shoes made of traditional materials. Maybe I am not getting my point across so maybe this will; a gentleman is never an a-hole.

Wonderful nostalgia! I was in menswear back in the 1980s. Everybody aspired to look good in this area. I was in South Moulton street, later on St. Christopher’s place, and finally, before the Duke of Marlborough’s estate decided to commercialize ( flog off…) London’s Covent Garden, I was there through thick and thin. Gentlemen’s attire is not what it used to be. All the money has gone abroad, sadly. So it was wonderful to see this nostalgia!

Most wonderful hand made soap ever stumbled upon: My wife wanted to duck in a soap shop in St Louis and since I was with her, I also went in. Not normally a stop I would enjoy. As I’m just looking around, I see one named “Whiskey, Leather, & Smoke”. I turned to the shop owner and asked “who would buy soap with such a name?” His reply was simple “smell it”. Largest soap purchase I ever made, and I wish I had bought more. The shop went out of business within the year, and I was not able to buy or ever find it again.
