    🧍🏻My Sizes
    I'm 5'6" with shoes on and about 125 lbs after dinner. I have a 35" chest; I usually wear XS tops and 28x28 pants (or 28x30 cuffed).
    My best suit jacket size is 34 Short, but even 34S needs alterations (mostly shortening of the sleeves and jacket), so my best-fitting suits are custom.

    I discovered your channel in college and it had a huge impact on me. In the last few years I haven't always been in the best situation financially so I've always cherished the lessons I got from you to always look presentable and keep moving forward through any challenges. Seeing a new video pop up or rewatching old ones is like getting a warm hello from a friend; something that is always welcome! Very happy to see you succeed and excited to see what's coming. If you ever make the trip to Panamá, we'd love to have you down here!

    You were a main reason that I started and still dress well and I loved every video of channel
    I truly wish you the best Brock
    May your life be happy just like you improved our lives and our style
