I've shopped with you guys for a good few years now and always visit your store when in London, It's great to see you're making videos a little more regularly. I often do the research online, taking in the opinions and reviews of other great KZbinrs and then making the pilgrimage to Brick Lane. It's good to see that you're sharing your knowledge with a wider audience via the platform too.

[@sonofastag]

Thanks! We appreciate the support :) There are some fantastic KZbinrs out there with great advice on heritage clothing. If there are things that you might want to see us cover in the future, we are always up for suggestions!

What is the denim jacket being worn in this video ??

[@sonofastag]

It’s from FULLCOUNT, Dartford Wash.

@@sonofastag fit u good! what size is that type 2?

[@mylesagustin6324]

What size are you wearing?

[@sonofastag]

It's a medium in the video - although it is worth saying that the T-Shirt hadn't yet been washed, so has a bit of extra length at the bottom.

[@santiagoangulo9431]

Can you get these shirts dry cleaned mate ?

[@sonofastag]

The care label suggests that you should not get them dry cleaned. Merz recommends low spinning and a cool temperature for washing.

[@Choatsy]

It looks good because they tailored it by shortening the length per the costume designer. merz needs to figure their body lengths out- the wide necklines, short arms and long body are super unflattering unfortunately.

[@sonofastag]

We mention that they shortened it at 1:38 - Some of the extra length in the body goes after the first wash, but like anything else we recommend that the best way for your garments to look great is to have your clothes adjusted to fit you specifically. Clothing like this needs the extra length to cater for different body types - it's a lot easier to shorten a garment than to lengthen it.

one digit error on the price i think

[@magnumbrown]

[@tonytuffers]

Meh.. it's still just a t shirt at the end of the day
