I am not a tailor and probably never will be a tailor. But I still find these videos fascinating...I know not why. Peace.

The article you referred to in the post I removed was a complete fiction. The author was a children’s book writer who made repeated attempts to have different drafts of the article published before coming up with that nonsense. I left NYC in 2015 after being thanked for my contribution to education by the then First Lady Michelle Obama, when she encouraged me for follow my dreams of setting up a tailoring school. The store I shared on the lower east side was closing down so it seemed like it was a good time. He made no mention of this meeting, my intention to set up a school or my reasoning for returning to Ireland.

@@RoryDuffy Cool. I am pleased that your time in NYC was good. Man...you can't trust anyone these days...it seems ridiculous that someone would write an article about tailoring that was fabricated (though I believe you). It's not like you are a politician or anything. Doubly cool about Obama - I had heard you mention that in one of your videos (I think). Thanks for clearing that up. I'll take down the article link. Peace.

@@McRocket he was sneaky about it. I did say NYC is a tough place to do business and that bespoke isn’t suited to those who don’t wish to wait. But I didn’t leave because I couldn’t make a living, I didn’t like the life. When you come from the countryside it’s hard to explain to a city dweller the benefits of peace and tranquility, when all they think is isolated and remote. My feeling is that it wasn’t a balanced article, it made no mention of my successes. I had recently made a suit for Nick Jonas/ Met Gala, my business had taken me from NYC to LA and Miami. That I had spent six months in Nashville commuting between three cities and decided I had seen and done it all. Or the fact I owned a house in Ireland and wanted to return to it, my grandfathers place, where the school is now located. It sounded to me like a hard luck story that didn’t reflect my experience in New York City. He was introduced to me by a mutual friend who said he wrote children books and wanted to make a go of being a menswear writer so I agreed. My bags were packed and my tickets booked. I left the city months before the article was released and at that point I didn’t really care.

@@RoryDuffy Sad. Like I said...why the 'f' would someone lie about a story on tailoring? Weird. And I get your point of city living (NYC is insane - like it's own country). Though I HATE roughing it...I love living in the quiet country...just as long as there is FAST internet and I am 30 minutes max from a city. BTW - I assume that arthritis must be common amongst tailors. All that sewing!!! Peace.

@@McRocket we are close to nearby town. Population about 8k, big step down from NYC’s 8m. It’s great for the students because there’s no distractions. My workshop in NYC welcomed international students all the time who wanted to spend a few weeks with the tailor from the video series. It would only take a day or two before they would turn up late and hungover, NYC has a lot of distractions. The workshop here is open 24/7, so students can come and go as they please with accommodations only a short walk away.
