    Harrods IS the Best department store in the UK, I first went there to see Santa when I was Eight. now at 58 I still adore it, getting lost in the shoe dept is a joy, the sales are Dame good as well. I used to pop in every week and the sales assistants were fab for info on new stock-look books exc, now its set as separate shops it looses some of its appeal.Quality isn't Cheap but I can Spot the ripoffs, NO one should pay £600 for a Tee-shirt even with LV in small letters on it. Common sense Lads. I would advise to arrive at 10, do food first, then the rest......Explaining a Scotch egg .lol. Marvellous

    Great vlog. Good to see that Harrods have maintained the diverse selection of menswear. I generally only visit during the sales now, when you can definitely pick some nice pieces with a fairly reduced price. Harvey Nicks is also very good but a much smaller selection of menswear. Selfridges definitely rival Harrods for menswear but still don’t beat them.

    Great video and those Loewe’s jackets are worth it
    It would be nice if you could hold the camera to the brand name for a second and maybe say the name so we know which brand you’re looking it. It was hard to tell at times and I saw some pieces I wanted to look up.
    Thanks again for the great video

    On a work trip to the UK, to London, in the fall of 2021, spent a few hours in Harrods. I was searching for Santoni brown suede Carlo loafers. I found them there. I can’t recall what I paid for them in 2021, but today online they are $990 U.S. #expensive I knew they were pricey, but I also knew they were quality hand made Italian loafers that I would wear. I enjoyed every minute of the buying experience. The salesman was very kind and engaging. He offered to show me other brands so that I could compare fit and look. After my purchase, I went over to the food court, and had a fantastic hamburger, fries with a beer. My waiter was so friendly. We ended up taking a selfie and gave each other Bro Hugs.
    On a second trip two months later, I went back to Harrods and bought my daughter, and wife, scarves from a vendor there. I don’t recall the brand, but it’s well known. Beautiful scarves.
    It was Christmas time and took time to visit their holiday shopping area; and the area where they sell Harrods souvenirs and what not. I came back home to the U.S. with lots of fun things for my wife and daughter

    Good vlog. Love watching your vids. Me n the mrs go in harrods and try n guess how much things are. We’re both into fashion and dressing well but I find a lot of the clothing is either really horrible or I love it but the price is just a figure plucked out the air. Who actually pays £390 for a plain white t shirt. Blows my mind. It’s quite literally greed.

    I recommend Harrod for a slash if you are bursting otherwise ridiculous grotesque prices which may appeal to the weak needing an ID enhancing label without the commensurate quality. Blog is welcome though.

    Harrods was once home of the legendary pet kingdom where you could buy exotic animals like alligators, lions, tigers, panthers and elephants. Lanvin is pronounced Lawn-vaaaa. "Holy F****!!" is how we all reacted when we saw the price of that cashmere teddy jacket for over 5 grand. 😂
