SURPRISE Bespoke Suit! | First Fitting | Davidoff of London & Henry Poole!

[@rodrigocamacho7590]

Eddie is a class act since the first time he appeared on this channel. You can feel his kind hearted spirit through the screen 🥂 more than deserving

[@RamblingVlogger]

No truer words could have said it better.

[@WaltBaby1201]

Well said!

[@peterbrandon384]

I was going to comment the same thing.

[@ramanshah7627]

Eddie's a good interviewer, too. He seems to have a knack for asking a question that opens up his conversational partner, then let them talk it through.

[@Mike-ts3it]

While he is a nice guy, I still think his prices are ridiculous. I would love to compare his suits to a reputable bespoke suit tailor from China at a 10th of the cost. After watching all of his suit making videos for the last year-and-a-half I feel like there's a lot of puffery in this industry. Just like anywhere else in the world they take your measurements and sew it together. But the suit is absolute amazing.

[@megasoid]

Love these long segments. No jump cuts or obnoxious music. The bespoke process is endlessly fascinating. Thank you for another well produced installment.

[@kirbyallison]

You are so welcome! No small amount of effort goes into these edits.

[@benjaminmentat8272]

@@kirbyallison The subtle, tasteful music that was in this was just right, pairs beautifully with the atmosphere of Saville Row.

[@shreyjoshi4629]

​​@@kirbyallison I agree with above comment. Your channel has provided so much information on true bespoke tailoring, bespoke shoes, cigars etc. And I've started changing my wardrobe with tailored garments, whatever is possible on my level. I wish someday I can commission a true bespoke at Saville Raw. I started watching your channel to get information on cigars but content like this is actually very good. Love this.

[@Sam_888]

Hats off to Simon and Tom for accommodating us the viewers and the camera. Fascinating. Thanks Eddie and Kirby.

[@hbilbeisi1]

I think the best part of this video is eddies mastery of asking the right questions.

[@TheLycan238]

Agreed. It's not just what he is asking but how he asks it.

[@RavenCFD]

Not even the sun's brightness can match the shine of Eddie's smile. He is always a joy to witness on your channel.

[@andythompson7450]

I was literally about to ask what was happening with Eddie’s suit !! These are the best episodes you’ve done in my opinion.

[@davidn8245]

Absolutely love this series and Eddie going through the process has been fascinating. His questions are really smart and lead to a great conversation.

[@rogerharwood861]

I'm 11 minutes through and I think thisbis the best video yet Kirby. So excited. Eddie is so generous. Such class running through this video.

[@kirbyallison]

That’s exciting! More to come!

[@igorrogi8971]

Kirby's as giddy as a dad getting his son his first suit! 😂 😂 😂

[@varunshroff6260]

I visited the Davidoff store last week and saw Eddie rocking the final piece. OH MY GOD!!!!! What a suit!! Kirby you are a legend. Everyone stay tuned for the final fitting video, I can’t wait!

[@markmckenzie1605]

Eddie is so deserving of this. You are a very dear friend indeed. I m so much enjoying being a part of this journey for Eddie. Thank you Kirby for setting this up and letting us follow the path with you both.

[@ndp0]

Can never get enough of Eddie, what a wonderful man. He deserves this suit more than anyone!

[@SoaG93]

Dear Kirby, I wanted to thank you for your videos. I found your channel through my interest in cigars. And till now, I binged all of your videos helped me to change myself in a better way, I threw away all my clothes, got new clothes, changed my behavior more and more to one of a gentleman. And I love how you help your friend Eddie with his bespoke experience. Thank you, Kirby, from the bottom of my heart. I love your work, pleas keep it going.

[@simonburrows1467]

Oh, what a delight Kirby and of course Eddie. I've not seen this level of detail in tailorship before, I was a cabinetmaker for 25 years and know what it means to try and hit perfection. And what an incredible way to glorify the art of friendship. Well done on an informative and beautifully crafted and may I say important piece of documentation.

[@kirbyallison]

Thanks, Simon!

[@seanshadrach5197]

Wow! I am impressed! Eddie looked fantastic in his first fitting. My sincere compliments to Henry Poole, Simon, Tom {Donatello}, and of course Kirby. Well done, gentlemen, and thank you for allowing me to experience and share in this. Eddie is a gem about to shine even more, so brilliantly..

[@midnightalley4586]

Even in the beginning stages, Poole still takes the time to present the suit in a most elegant way.

[@kirbyallison]

Poole certainly embellishes every moment of the process with the upmost level of professionalism.

[@jirichocholaty7358]

Well,I 100% agree and love to hear that less is more for bespoke suit that you can't catch your unnecessary buttons or straps. Thank you!

[@Tombalabombadill]

Thank you for letting us be a part of this Kirby, you truly are a great friend and a gentleman, best wishes to you and Eddie.

[@garychard3894]

Eagerly awaited, didn't disappoint, thank you gentlemen.

[@LanceJean02]

Such a lovely gift Kirby. Well done

All the better knowing how much Eddie will enjoy it!

[@mattbutler7659]

If anyone deserves a bespoke suit, it's Eddie. He's such a class act.

[@user-dq1kr6zc2t]

Eddie is most deserving of a bespoke suit from Henry Poole & Co. The Sahakians are, as a family and operator, first glass professionals and gentlemen. Wanting only good fortune for them!

[@urbandaniel100]

eddie is a great guy and am happy to see his good friend surprising him with something so special as this. what a beautiful gesture bro.

[@mikebirch6913]

May I just say how wonderful it is, all too briefly, to see the relationship between yourself and Eddie so cordial, respectful and warm.

[@danielhoven570]

Gentlemanry is making a comeback. I couldn't be more on board.

[@your-lordship]

Thank you for this in depth video. Great that you showed so much of the fitting. And Tom is a great cutter. I love working together with him on my projects. Thank you for showing the world what great work they do at Henry Poole 👌

[@kirbyallison]

Tom is incredible!

[@salvatourevalentino]

Henry Poole is a true trademark of sartorial refinement and craftsmanship within Savile Row.

[@kirbyallison]

Indeed they are!

[@dr.fabrizioprado1361]

​@@kirbyallisonI have never heard the words sartorial refinement but I know what it means because sartor means tailor in latin and sartorius is a muscle from the thigh. Don't get me wrong, but by 20 minutes of filming, I counted you say "you know" more than 30 times, while the other 2 said 3 or 4 times. You are a gentleman and I appreciate your content, so I think it would be appropriate to correct it. Thank you.

[@peterthermocline]

A thoroughly enjoyable look at the Bespoke process, thankyou indeed. 🎩

[@kirbyallison]

Glad you enjoyed it! Even I’m jealous of Eddie!

[@TheOverlandGolfer]

I'm overjoyed for you Eddie🎉

[@D1CE579]

I picked Tom up in my Black Cab this morning from Greenwich in London.. Lovely bloke. Tom if you see this was going to mention about Kirby and his channel and how I enjoy it.

Jolly good show old boy👏👏👏

[@billkeaveney1526]

Eddie fully deserves this experience. Thanks Kirby

[@senatorlainez]

So happy to see Eddie this happy. A bloke I've never even met but feel like I know. He's so sincere and nice. Looking forward to visit his cigar shop in London.

[@BarneyKodur]

Admire the friendship, the respect, the honor bestowed on each other…true gentlemen, indeed.

[@DWRECKED91]

Ive never wore a suit in my life, and I am still thoroughly enjoying this process.

[@jrooney58]

This is probably the best video you’ve done to explain what the tailor is trying to accomplish with the fitting.

[@Austin-in7ch]

What a great video! Great to see Kirby so excited for his friend and Eddie so genuinely happy.

[@leylag1466]

I remember my oldest son getting his first bespoke suit at 19. It was such a special occasion and moment for him and I. I have to admit I shed a tear or two in the privacy of my car. Your first fitting is a rite of of passage. Your first bespoke suit, shirt is a rite of passage and needs to be treated as such. A man’s attire,a woman’s attire tells you a story if you know how to read it. Some people you need to talk to, to understand who they are and where they come from. Others you simply need to watch, observe their garments and you know more than enough.

[@b-playzyt9929]

Yourself, Eddie and Edward are some of my favourite people to watch and listen to, class and elegance always, I aspire to be more like you three in the way I speak and act.

[@TheLycan238]

As always timing is impeccable. The more videos I see with Eddie the more I can learn from him especially in the art of conversation. Had a fitting for a made to measure suit in recent days and yes the feel of the garments compared to off the rack is far superior. Look forward to the next few videos. As for how to celebrate the delivery a visit to a Castle for afternoon tea with a game of Cricket or Polo would be nice.

[@MauricXe]

Kirby I really love your suit from Divij. This series was a great idea. I like when Eddie asks questions. he's new to the process and we get to see what the "common" man cares about....in comparison to our favorite host; Kirby's a pro. We also get a fresh set of preferences. I already know what Kirby likes in his suit.

[@Every_Day_Adventure]

I always love the tailors eye and attention to detail. I have no clue what he see's but he and all of them look at it and see whatever it is, exacting.

[@mrb6112]

Eddie is such a kind listener, a rare talent

[@Havsorm]

Just beautiful seeing this wonderful piece come together. Kirby, thank you so much for shining a light on true craftsmanship.

[@markfoster2066]

One day I’ll head down Saville Row and get myself a bespoke suit 👍 fascinating process. Thank you for sharing with us Kirby

My goodness! You can learn the art of manners by observing Eddie Sahakian! A true class act.

[@keithmancinelli3170]

Another great episode in this fantastic series. I am as excited for Eddie as I am for the rest of us to be able to watch the full bespoke journey. Also, I do love that Poole/Davidoff green!

[@WesD85]

This is very generous gift Kirby. A lovely gift from one gentleman to another.

[@slversrfr99]

I don't know how they pick out the intro music to these episodes, but, it's perfection! Kirby I've been watching your channel for I don't know how many years now, and the production quality has gone from like a 10 to a 20 in my eyes - we come for the great content but it really shows how much you care for what you do by pushing the quality to be better and better, when you think it can't get any better, you do it again. Take care my friend, and to many more years of great content! (and maybe someday share a cigar with you and a conversation)

[@kirbyallison]

It’s an obsession! For sure! Thank you for noticing!

Wonderfull to see Eddie being sculpted so well.... such a shame we don't have these craftsman in every town and city as they were in the past. Might have to nip up to the 'Smoke' over the summer to visit these fantastic places.

[@kirbyallison]

Indeed.... but this is why it is so important to support them!

[@MrBurtonshaw]

@@kirbyallison Indeed, society changed, style changed, bigger retailers could see more money for themselves with OTP. The cost is sadly prohibitive for 99% of the UK's population with so few now trained to do this wonderful work. I have to make do with used pieces and my trusty sewing machine... and local alteration shops for the difficult bits. Brilliant to see what can be done though. thanks

“Allow me to reciprocate” eddy is such a gem

[@jasond1433]

I'm experiencing this vicariously through Eddie, since I live in the Midwest of the US. While the cost of a bespoke suit itself isn't out of the question, the travel in addition to the cost probably means I won't be able to ever get the experience myself. What a wonderful gesture.

[@russ9921]

This video serves as an excellent introduction to what a man should look for in the appearance of a good quality suit. Too often, men get no guidance, and the shop boy can be clueless too, especially when these days so many buy a first suit only for an important occasion such as a wedding.
