    22:40: Er, penultimate means the second-to-highest degree of something. Surely, you mean that Eric's client's remark - about forgetting that he was wearing one of Eric's suits until he came to take it off that evening - was the ULTIMATE compliment?

  • @MrNikkertti
    @MrNikkertti Рік тому

    Fantastic color combination and i really like the silhouette of the jacket maybe a tad too tight fit for my liking. Makes Kirby look athletiic and flatters the physique. Kirby seems to be really hard to fit around the neck. In my humble enthusiast opinion the back of the collar seems to sit a bit low and the side of the neck should sit also closer to his throat. When Kirby moves the collar doesn't stay in place and the shirt collar pops out of the jacket. You can compare how Eric's collar fits and Kirby's when they stand side by side. I am sure that Maestro Jensen can fix these issues. Great video!.

    What a beautiful fabric, and the trousers look great with it.
    I agree on the cuffs, lengthen by a 1/8 or 3/16 maybe. Is there not a risk of the heavy fabric creeping up when you have worn it for a few hours?

    While I tend to give Eric some (playful, not 100% serious) heat for some fit-related aspects on some of the tailoring he's done for Kirby in the past, I must say that I do like the extended natural shoulders on the jacket he's wearing today - even though some people surely will take offense in the collapsing upper arm area that's resulting from it. However, and that's so Italian to me, this "calculated sloppiness" gives a certain charme to the entire garment that's so hard to reproduce for tailors from other parts of the world. 👍

    I was just thinking about one of the biggest problems that isn’t as commonly discussed with tailoring is going to the gym and trying to buy quality suits/jackets. I believe a man should fully max out his physique in the gym with weights without becoming a body builder then to buy suits once he’s reached peak condition roughly. This is so he doesn’t buy a suit only for a year or two later for it to not fit him.
