My New $6500 Bespoke Gaziano & Girling Shoes | Are these my best pair? | Kirby Allison

[@nates5703]

I couldn't imagine ever spending $6500 on a pair of shoes... but seeing these was about as close to convinced as I'll ever be. The work was truly stunning.

[@keithjackson4985]

Nate S, I laughed out loud! 😆 🤣 I like seeing them though.

[@martinvanburen4578]

if I could afford it, I would buy that shoe tomorrow...for one should either be a work of art or wear a work of art, so the next best thing is just wear great shoes

[@Mononitol]

Honestly. I’m so sold. I will do this within the next few years for sure, such an incredible process and their probably comfortable as all hell.

[@parkersplace6372]

My car didn't cost that much. I feel deflated.

[@jayare6804]

I hear you. Bespoke and the well-crafted are certainly a front-end investment. But if you think about wearing these shoes 3 times a week, for 10 years, the cost per wear is several dollars. But still, a lot of money. There are shoe makers who could probably make bespoke for less.

[@shawnglass108]

I don’t think I’ll ever own a pair of $6,500 bespoke shoes but I never thought I’d ever own a $1,600 pair of John Lobb’s either and I bought myself a pair last month. So you never know..I know that watching Mr. Allison’s channel has blessed my taste and wardrobe but it’s been a curse on my wallet. Lol Thanks for the great videos.

[@VineetKumar-js1do]

This one is a once in a lifetime experience. If people got money then they must try these bespoke shoes out.

[@ruurdelbers72]

your pair of bespoke is comming

[@JS-shim]

There is no finer shoe company in the world. All your Gaziano and Girling shoe videos are brilliant. Well done Kirby, Tony and Dean.

[@haroldsawyerjr7385]

I'm happy for you. I could definitely tell how genuinely excited you were. The shoes are extraordinary! I really like them as well.

[@SunsetWingman]

Sounds like Kirby is also going to be exploring the world of throat spray, herbal tea, and honey cough drops

[@IanTheWoodchuck]

As a maker, I have very much enjoyed seeing the process of seeing these shoes come into being, but more than anything I'd have loved to be in the back room seeing these beauties get put together. I know everyone has their secrets, but The Process and seeing the techniques these masters employ is what I find most interesting. Also, seeing how they make that patina would have been awesome!

[@steviecoetzer]

Found your channel by accident and have been watching for the last 4 hours, i find it all really interesting. Thanks you have opened my mind to a whole new world of bespoke shoes!

[@instantlybroken]

I have never been interested in bestoke shoes or anything like that. But damn if I didn't just spend 2 and a 1/2 hours watching you Get a pair of shoes created for perfect fit.

[@armedferret]

Last spring at their trunk show in DC, Dean took my measurements for my first pair ever of bespoke shoes. I just had my first trial fitting last month in Atlanta and the fact that there were no adjustments needed to the lasts--carved/shaped by Tony--goes to show just how incredible they have become over the years. Simon was really delighted to see how well the trial pair fit and I can't wait to drop by the shop this summer wearing them.

[@creamfalcon]

Are they comfortable?

[@armedferret]

@@creamfalcon like nothing i've ever had on my feet before. and that's just going off the trial pair. for full transparency it's my first bespoke footwear commission, but oh MAN they are just perfect closeness to the foot all around. Not constrictive, just sort of a nice leather hug.

[@Noneofyourbusiness99999]

I love Kirby’s unshakable enthusiasm in England, despite often being met by drab sullen responses from monotone British makers. As a Brit, I enjoy it as a study of the relative cultures ha ha

[@divafever9754]

The misery of living in this collapsing country takes its toll, even on the well-off seeming.

This pair of shoes is something else. Thought they looked great in hand but after you’ve worn them they just look unreal

[@TheRhythmReview]

Beautiful shoes… but my LORD….$6500? To walk on the street and sidewalks, or scratchy tile at some hotel? I’d truly be afraid to wear these ANYWHERE. And I’ve paid $1000, 2000 plus for shoes. I’d need SEVERAL raises to buy these! 🤣 But so darn beautiful they are.

[@MauricXe]

I can't keep my eyes off those "Callaway" style boots. The light brown calfskin and light brown suede looks amazing. I didn't think I'd want that particular style and combination .....but now I do. Kirby's shoes are amazing. I love the patina work

[@kevinhoughton9134]

I'm astonished how much the detail is in made to measure shoes! I'm talking about the last by no means least the laces, Jesus H Christ. When Kirby gets his laces tied for him, it reminds me of that Columbo episode when the murderer gets identified because he tied his victims change of shoes laces, they were the opposite way to the victim would have tied them. OH, just one more thing........

I want to one day to be able to take a class or make a pair of my own shoes. I have watched hundry of hours of bespoke shoes and boots and i could probably do it but i lack the material and work experience of actually doing it. However i do know almost every step of the process in my mind just from all the videos and tutorials i have watched. Im sure they would look and fit badly but they would still mean a great deal to make my own shoe.

[@moleahy6880]

The majority of my tailored wardrobe is all bespoke; however I doubt I'd ever go the bespoke route in shoes. Mainly because I'm a fairly standard and easy fit in shoes. Sure, some brands and lasts fit me better than others but I've never really had a challenge with shoes. I do appreciate high quality shoes but I'll just continue to go with ready made. These shoes in the video are absolutely beautiful though. Like wearable art.
