To me an undershirt gives benefits that I cannot let go of: reducing sweat stains (and sweating in general), increasing the longevity of shirts. I've always been prone to getting sweaty, armpits and when I didn't wear undershirts my shirts would last maybe a year or two until the armpits had stains that wouldn't wash away. For me the material has to be very thin, tan or grey in color and always a V-neck to not show through the shirt. Undershirt is very necessary for me and it doesn't make wearing a shirt any less comfortable or elegant. I'm European (not French though).

shaunacole1 not true. An undershirt has an utterly minimal impact on causing someone to sweat more than they already would. For someone who sweats a lot, the benefits of the extra layer of an undershirt far outweigh any minuscule affect an undershirt would have on actually making someone sweat more.

The education you provide opens my eyes to new brands, styles, and how to identify better quality. I stick to shoes and shirts. I believe suits should only be purchased through a shop that can tailor and adjust to fit. Buying suits online is like ordering a wife. They rarely work out. We have, as a culture, lost the art of looking good and taking pride in our appearance. Through channels like yours the younger generations have a chance to learn and grow and teach the next.

I wear my shirts on my skin most of the time. I add an undershirt only in two cases: extreme cold, where the extra layer just makes me a little warmer, and high heat, where I'm worried about sweating all over a nice shirt. In farsi, we call an undershirt an "aragh geer" -- aragh meaning sweat, and geer meaning stuck.

The General didnot forget that my grand father fought for him against Vichy's government during times of hardship and inflected some heavy damage against the Vichies .... he respected the national asperation of the Syrians to become an independent state ...he respected that .... for this ...The general despite some harsh critizim agaisnt him from historians will remain one of the great leaders of our time.

I find myself in something of a predicament with regards to shirts that fit, since, due to congenital disorders, my arms are of different lengths and my spine has a strong curvature. Therefore, going mtm is my only alternative. As you say yourself, the fit is everything. I was optimistic about the explosion of online mtm shirt sites, but unfortunately I've found that many of them do not accommodate for arm lengths that do not match. I'm of the strong opinion that anybody can make an effort to truly look their best, and perhaps this is even more important for us who have been gifted with bodies that do not adhere very well to the norms of society. Many will not take you seriously, as a man, as an employee, as a fellow human being. When you dress up just a little bit and show some pride together with a friendly demeanor, your clothes have the power to transform these meetings and allow you to meet others as equals. And finally, thank you for your many interesting discussions on this channel.

Please forgive me if this has been said here before, the undershirt is worm to one save the shirt itself, ie. from accumulating sweat and oils from the skin of the wearer. Secondly it can provide a compliment to the shirt. For example I have pale skin so white is no problem for me but if you have dark skin it can make a white shirt look off. For me dark shirts like black look off so I wear a black undershirt and get that oil slick black look, that depth of color. I hope my long winded explanation helps a bit. GB

I am surprised Italian shirt makers were not listed here. Barba, Finamore, Borrelli - all make wonderful shirts. Like typical Italian brands they make many different types of shirts of different quality and it's not easy to tell them apart unless you really know what you are doing, but even basic level Barba shirt (cheapest of the 3 I think) is of excellent quality. Finamore is my favorite.
@SARTORIALTALKS4 жыл бұрын

@acquasea4 жыл бұрын
I also am a big fan of Finamore. Their slimmer fitting RTW models fit really well if one has a drop 7 or 8, to avoid a lot excess fabric bunching up around the waistline and ballooning - something I can't stand. I love the quality of Finamore, and my only complaint is I've experienced their buttons coming loose somewhat quickly. Odd for the traditional Crow's Foot attachment, and more quirky given the overall high level of fabrication. I've also become a huge fan of Cesare Attolini RTW shirts (also their tailoring of course). Attolini shirts have a splendid fit, great collars, excellent fabrics, and I don't think the quality of construction can be debated. Hugo, thank you for another great video. One aspect of shirts I would love to hear more about is collar height, as related to face shape/neck length, and moreover, how exposing more or less collar above one's jacket collar can affect an overall balance and appearance. Happy holidays to you and Sonya. All my best wishes. 🥂

It occurs to me that it is quite a remote place sartorially - Los Angeles. Perhaps, I can share the knowledge I gain from you with some people here, and bring better conditions about to those who desire them. I am particularly inspired by your reflections on excellent shoes essentially being a “foundation” (and I’m paraphrasing, of course) to a better life. Thanks again!

You really need to give us a video about how you get such an amazing shimmer on your silver hair :) it looks fantastic. Sets off your suits beautifully. Thank you for the excellent content of your videos. You both do a great job.

Thank you Di. Well, to be honest I don't do anything particular. I just wash my hair every day (or every other day when possible) and I NEVER use a blow dryer. I just let it dry by itself. Best regards, Hugo

Thank you Hugo for another informative and useful advice, although I am not an American, I think i might now why some people wear vest or t-shirt under their shirt, when I first started my sartorial journey, like most people, I went to the department store to buy my first grown-up attire, unfortunately, at least in Australia, the department stores were full of fused suits, glued shoes made of synthetic leather, and those polyester shirts which they claimed to be iron-free but in fact breath like wearing a plastic bag. the only way to make them sufferable is by having a vest under it. I developed a prejudice against the grown-up attire of shirt, suits and dress shoes, assuming they must be uncomfortable to wear. I am guessing America being the pioneer of mass marketing and using synthetic materials, they might find those polyester shirts insufferable as well. Thanks to websites like yours that teaches us how a shirt should be made, and how it should breath when wear it next to the skin. I can finally throw away my prejudice, and be comfortable while looking smart and elegant. So thanks again for the work you and your team are doing

Though my comment is quite late, I want to share from an American perspective. First, I completely agree with this comment. As young men, we Americans are not generally taught about materials, and we see white t-shirts as underwear in department stores. Without someone knowledgeable to teach us our errors, we grow up doing the same, while continuing to be uncomfortable in ill-fitting, stiff or scratchy material. I actually found this channel on a journey to make my own shirts. Even when I go to semi-nice stores, I feel that the shirts are not made for a forty-year-old who is fit. I may go bespoke, but I might just begin making my own.

I think two white shirts and a light blue shirt properly fit will suffice, but I've bought a few more from Tailorstore. By the second order they had my size just right, but I wish I had only ordered one shirt the first time, before I confirmed the exact fit. Excellent tutorial about shirts, Hugo!

The search is now over, since you have given me, more than I could ever ask for. Thank You so Very much, I hardly can wait for the next episode to launch - there’s so much valuable knowledge here that it’s hard to get my hands down. Thank you 🙏🏻 so much 👌🏻 Cheers from Denmark 🇩🇰

Dear mongsieur Hugo, I do wear undershirts especially during the colder months of the year as another layer to keep me warm. If the weather is very cold like now, I even wear long sleeve undershirts. It is pure for functional means. Of course when it is warmer I do not wear undershirts. I do agree with you that the shirt must not be seen. If you wear a v-neck jumper for example without a shirt, the undershirts must be v-neck too. And I live in Eurorpe The Netherlands as a matter of fact. Thank you once again for your teaching. Orvin Sillié.

I live in Sydney Australia however my children both have French partners. Consequently, I visit Paris once ever one or two years. After watching this video I could not resist visiting Charvet. After explaining that I would love to own one of their shirts but it was out of my price range they very kindly gave me a personal tour of each level of their shop including the floor with all the bolts of cloth you mentioned. It was a fabulous experience.

Hugo sir, this is so uncanny . In the last few weeks I've discovered a whole new world of shirts . I've gotten some two fold cotton at 170 threads plus by Hilditch Key and Thomas Pink ...I even slept in one of them - literally the most comfortable things I've ever worn ....never going back - scary.

Hahaha I understand. You should try the 200/2 or even the 240/2 by Marol (the Zenith collection). It's a fantastic experience on the skin. Cheers my friend, Hugo

What a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. I truly enjoyed that last bit about under shirts. I found it humorous. As a Texan I know we wear under shirt’s as a barrier to protect our shirt from sweat. But that’s just my experience. I plan to visit Europe, I’ll be sure to wear an under shirt 😁

Charles Tyrwhitt shirts are very decent quality for the price, much higher than comparable High St offerings. But the best thing about CT is the sheer range of options and sizes. They now have four fits and almost any combination of collar and sleeve length. That’s what I loved when I first encountered CT; I could find an amazing range of affordable shirts despite my slightly unusual measurements (15 1/2 inch collar and 36 inch sleeve length). I graduated to Harvie & Hudson which are the best OTR shirts I have owned. The quality is excellent and they are very comfortable to wear. Not bad value either(3 shirts for £180 and they usually have shirts on sale for £50 each).
