Absolutely love the fitment notes. It seems like I'm between sizes on basically everything that has ever been made to fit a human body, so I tend to stick to a very select few styles and brands that work for me. This has led to me having a limited style palette, which now makes me feel like I look weird in clothes I'm not familiar with. Having some sizing notes and especially styling notes like adding a belt and ironing goes a long way for giving me something to look for in clothes that look objectively good on me but make me think I look weird. TL:DR please keep doing fitment and styling notes

Nice video Michael. Where in NH are you moving? I’m moving there too soon as my gf got into grad school there. A video idea: over the course of the next few months, film before and afters of all the pieces you get tailored to show what a difference tailoring can make. It’s clear from this video you’ve got a very specific idea of what you think fits and what does not, and you know how to fix it. As someone who’s newer to fashion, I thought a lot of the outfits fit you great! But I also don’t mind a looser fit. A video like this would be interesting to see how different types of tailoring can affect garments (I.E. hemming pants length vs bringing in the waist size)

The pants at 2:51 have front pleats. You need to iron them with pleats in mind. They should have a nice crisp pleat following all the way down to the hem. Once you hem them they might look dressier if you iron them correctly. Otherwise the front pleats look odd for a casual outfit.

Steve McQueen didn't wear the sanders boots, the ones he wore where made by a brand called Hutton of Northampton, Hutton had financial problems in the 80s and sold the design, machines, patents, etc. to sanders (or another Swedish company, i'm not sure) anyway, fast forward to today and the person who owned the Hutton name etc. started making the boots again under the name 'playtime' they are, in my view, the most accurate to the ones that Steve McQueen wore and are extremely well made.

I don't know how much research and analysis you do before shooting your videos, because it's a bit weird to do post analysis on things that should've been prepared before making said video. But, I see that you have a better understanding of size and fit now because of this video. I also see that you've been busy with developing your brand and maybe doing a move as well. May I suggest getting an assistant or assembling a team to help with the production of your videos? Still, a great video nonetheless, but it feels too haphazardly put together; maybe because you just got a bunch of stuff from Huckberry/TS and you became very excited to make a vid?
