All these episodes with bespoke artisans are fascinating. It's a real privilege and a joy to experience the depth and breadth of knowledge of these incredible creators. Please keep making these types of videos Kirby, they're such a pleasure to watch.
As an Italian, I love his French direct approach - just shut up and let me teach you, if he was British it would be 20 mins of small talk and tangents into how he once found a shoe inside a tree.
Yeah we're all like that in France... The only moment where we'll have a small talk is around a beer at the "Apéro"
@@twistedpivoter2695 which makes sense, there's a time and place for everything
Chappelle168 😆
Yes, the British are polite
@@scottinbristol Idk if that is polite, I think its just a cultural habit. For example in having a waiter have small talk with you for 20 mins when you are trying to have dinner with your family is considered very rude in other countries
Client: And so how do you incorporate the differences between....
Maestro: AND IF YOU TAKE OFF YOUR FEET
Lol that was so cute 😅😅
This is just absolute fabulous! Someone who actually understands shoes and feet. WOW!
I really enjoy watching master craftsmen at work. Watching someone who is at their prime, one can observe how their confidence, experience, and intuition come together and aid them in their task.
Great video, Kirby - thank you.
Glad you liked it! Greetings okuyama
"I look to the bottom of your soul" Wow, that got heavy quickly.
It is 03:00 in the morning and I don't know how I got here
Philippe Atienza... so legendary.
The Michael Jordan of bespoking.
A lot more feel, or instinct, involved beyond measurements which was unexpected, very interesting
The Foot Whisperer. Amazing! Semper Fi
Wow this is awesome. Really enjoyed this. Great work.
best 14:00 mins I've spent today. Solid content. 10/10
Now this is science of shoe measurement and fitting 👌
Did you ask about external factors? For example, does he only take measurements in the mornings or afternoons, or if he takes that into account along with other possible factors as the temperature or humidity that day?
I love the accent of Philippe Atienza, it reminds me of Peter Sellers in the pink panther...
Kirby loves having his feet measured
I cant wait to see what style shoe he builds for you, I do know that Italians like there shoes to be extended.
Same here. I would be very much interested in seeing what type of shoe he makes for him and how comfortable he feels after all this detailed foot measurement. Good stuff 👍
Absolutely fantastic. A master. Thanks
Cant wait..
Great video of a true artisan.
That's the way I measure for making a last.
I have seen videos of other makers taking measurements with the feet off the draft?
Very interesting Kirby, thank you for the video.
Wow, master 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video!
Great new Intro music and video, heroic!
Fascinating
This guy really knows his stuff - glad he was respectful of your Cleverley bespokes, though! Looking forward to meeting you eventually at the Club (I asked D W to send you my email address)
The new intro is wacky as hell kirby 😂
Very interesting video though thank you!
Yeah, I'm not sure about the intensity of it...I kind of liked the jazzy intros, a bit less serious and classy. Getting it right just hard though, I assume he will iterate on this further. I think a shot of him walking in a suit in paris would be better than the shot with the cap (hamburg...dunno not a hat guy).
Comes soon June 3 ☺️
ASMR brought me here
I'm waiting on the Unintentional ASMR community to find this one. Seems it's a hidden gem. And an acquired asmr taste.
Are you commissioning Philippe to make a new bespoke shoe while filming a series?
Cris Yorke Sadly, no. I don’t have any immediate plans to be back in Paris this year, and I hate to stretch these out too long. But I’d love to have him do something. His work is amazing.
Philippe is very professional, i can tell from how he measured your feet. I believe he’s a great shoemaker. How much does it cost to have a shoe made by him?
Christmas Horse Thanks, it worth the price lots of work involved in bespoke shoe making. Painstaking job.
11:12 the roast begins
Actually relaxing 😂😂😂😂
He is a Sherlock of shoemakers..
That introduction though. Sounds like an epic movie.
I'm surprised how many French I see have Spanish surnames.
I heard Kirby got to second base once.
that light...ow
I’d like to have navy shoes for war.
Btw, great work!
why not just cast a mold of the foot with silicone and hard resin?
happy543210 Funny you say that... Philippe actually had an over-zealous customer drop off a cast of his foot for Philippe to “keep as a reference.” Pretty funny. But not really useful as a master’s experience and intuition.
I'm gonna write a relevant hashtag here; maybe it helps other fellows to find the video by the algorithm suggestion:

That poor guy's knees, ouch!
He may be French and legendary, but he wears legendary American Levi's jeans. High five!
Drives a Harley Davison to work every day Alison
French are direct and no nonsense.
British are indirect and add some nonsense.
That intro....lol
I just spent 14 and a half minutes watching a guy getting his feet measured. I have no idea how I got here.
Same.....what am I doing with my life
why does nobody ever let Kirby speak?😂
I was hoping this would be more asmr-ish
I'm not sure phillipe has enough experience.
6:03 -6:09 Must feel especially worse being interrupted there during filming?
It's generally unnatural to be talking on camera, so this kind of stuff just happens.
Walter White is a shoemaker? WOW!
If i hear the word bespoke one more time im gonna lose my shit.
*why is this in my recommendations*
:)
That’s 14mins I’m not getting back!
Wow... the privilege, it burns
...in centimeters.
If he notices you wear a very cheap 2 dollar sock he may sudgest you go elsewhere .. maybe Shoe Express.
