@@MatthewJBD When you've got three cameras pointing at you and you're used to being behind the scenes, it can feel a little unnatural at first! Hopefully, I did well enough that you were able to enjoy the video 🙂 - Jack
Before this video I used to really like this channel but now I’m really hooked Being British myself it was fantastic to hear a British voice on your team I agree with the idea of putting these guys in front of the camera more often You’re channel would become more international and would show all the variations in taste while still dressing stylishly
Eb. Perhaps you can fold your T-shirts with the printing exposes, then tastefully arrange them as a collage in a large picture frame so you can display them on the wall. It would be a great conversation starter.
Great job gentlemen! You both have fascinated me with how distinctive your clothing choices always are! You have been sort of the mystery men behind the scenes of Gentleman's Gazette! I'm so pleased to see you in front of the camera, and I hope this will become something you do more often! Thank you very much! Lisa
I’m mightily impressed by finally seeing you both talking about your fashion regrets. I’m especially impressed by Jack’s eye glasses and I may explore getting a pair of them for myself. They look great with Jack’s tuxedo and since I have to wear a tuxedo most of the time, I would like to see how they’d look on me. E.J.’s ensemble also looks great and very well put together. It’s always a pleasure to see what Gentleman’s Gazette brings out that we don’t always think about. I’m also with you regarding t-shirts because I wear them mostly when I’m thinking casual. I truly enjoy dressing up (maybe a little too over the top at times) and I would love to see a return to men being more dressed up including wearing tuxedos for evenings at home, but that one might be a bit more of a challenge to pull off. Meanwhile keep bringing out the best videos you can. Just excellent!
As an option for dealing with those souvenir t-shirts, or indeed *any* sentimental tee that you don't see yourself wearing in the future: look into having a quilt made of those shirts. I helped my cousin make a quilt out of tees from the high school plays and musicals she was in; it's time consuming but not necessarily difficult.
Excellent video from these two gentleman. For me it is about getting a bad fit, more often too large but sometimes too small, because the price was low. I had to toss three white shirts and still need to go to a men's clothing store that also has a tailor so I can be fitted out for a shirt that looks good on me.
Tremendous video, the concept and subject matter. Hosted by two of the most splendid chaps and sartorial experts, whom I am honored to have been in shared company at the recent Belvedere Bash!
You can donate those socks, Eb. Jack, you can change your luggage depending on the type of travel you do. There are trips where it wouldn't make too much difference with the weight of the bag, and they might bring a joy all there won. But good job gentlemen. Both in the examples you gave to buying mistakes, as well as emphasizing the importance of considering more than immediate appeal of items. I grew up in the 70s, so there were fashion trends I followed that would make someone blush today. But I don't regret the bell-bottoms or tie-dye shirts, or even the platform shoes. When you are very young is the time to follow such trends, even if they are foolish looking.
Jack here - I often will change the luggage I use depending on the type of travel, as you've suggested. While it's true that domestic travel won't usually have a weight limit for me, these cases were a good 8-10kg BEFORE I had put anything in them, and were just so uncomfortable to carry around. Ultimately, designed for a different time where porters were more present!
I had seen videos of these fellows over the past few, and after getting to "meet" them on this episode, I hope we get to see them much more!!! Cheers, gentlemen, and an excellent job!!!
It's so lovely to be able to get to know Jack & Eb! Thanks for sharing some of your sartorial journey insights with us-we would love to see a "Get to Know" video for each of them and their personal styles! :)
Very nice video, it's great to get an inside of the rest of the team. For the Souvenir T-Shirt problem, my aunt makes pillow sheets out of unused T-Shirts. You just take like 30x30cm from the front and the back and sew them together with a zipper or buttons. That way you can keep the memory and use it also as decor.
I met Jack in London, briefly, at the London Shoe Trunk shoe. Nice to see him (and Eb) on the GG :-) I have to say, it's important to recognise where you have gone wrong in your sartorial journey in order to really hone your style. Mine: a pair of Jodhpur boots i never loved them because of their poor quality fit, colour and construction. Thanks Tony
I have seen some fun quilts made from souvenir T-shirts! Perhaps something to consider! Cuddle up with your wife to watch a movie, and drape yourselves with your souvenir T shirt quilt! How fitting! Lisa
I have a couple of those top hats - for my uses, which are mostly costume, they are excellent. They are also used by the master on my masonic lodge during degrees, at which time the hat is entirely symbolic of leadership & often paired with the standard Tuxedo. (our regalia closet is stocked with top hats a century or more in age, and they LOOK it)
Huh. I love that black overcoat. Get some use from the oversized gloves... wool liners and you've got good winter driving gloves. Good point about the "sticky" socks! Interesting fresh faces, good job!
My big mistake was buying prestigious name clothing from the final clearance rack thinking 'at this price I can have it altered to fit and still come out ahead' (I never went to the trouble of having any of those items tailored)
Only on the Gentleman's Gazette buying regrets are the t-shirts languishing in a drawer while a $350 satin top hat is "something I actually get the chance to wear!" 🤣
The situation with the trouser legs and over the calf socks is annoying and I'm surprised that it's not mentioned more often. I think everyone thinks that the nice sleek tapered leg is a good look and yes, it is, while standing but try to stand up from sitting and you have that problem as Jack mentioned. It does kind of ruin it because it's hard to strike that perfect balance of wanting to have a not too wide hem but also wear the OTC socks and not have them sliding down all the time.
I've definitely spent hours in the past searching the internet for answers, but the only true solution is to make sure your trousers have enough room to move around your socks! - Jack
Two true gentlemen, and charming presenters, I really enjoyed the video :) As a fellow Englishman, I would be very interested to know where Jack gets his shirts? Edit: I see, from Proper Cloth, forgot about the outfit rundown :)
Hi Josh - I have shirts from a whole range of places: Drake's, Turnbull & Asser, Ralph Lauren, Luca Avitable, Emmett London, Proper Cloth, Charles Tyrwhitt, Thomas Pink, Hackett, and so on. I try my best not to stick to just one maker, as they all do something different to the other! - Jack
I think the new frontier of men's fashion will be clothiers in airports where you rent clothes when arriving and then drop them off at the airport when you travel back to your home.
Not enough time to list what I have regretted buying - wide leg jeans, cheap polo shirts, cargo trousers with too high or too low rises. The list just goes on and on!
More of these two, they make a good double act. Hang on to the black overcoat, by the time you're in your forties there's at least two funerals a year. Always worth looking at women's gloves if you haven't got big hands. They are usually cheaper and there's lots on the vintage market. Although not always unisex in design a plain pair turns up occasionally. My only top hat was left by the Japanese Ambassador, in a hotel in Liverpool, when he had to make a swift exit the day the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor thus making war inevitable between Britain and Japan. Its a bit small, which forces you to where it at a rakish angle.
Thank you! Personally, I have no issue with wearing gloves designed for women if the design is right, but the issue with these gloves was the "industry standard" fit which meant that even my actual glove size was too big. I toyed with the idea of inserting a liner, but as I had purchased them specifically to be an unlined pair for transitional seasons, this would ultimately run counter to what I wanted them for. I've owned several pairs of Dents and a pair of Chester Jeffries gloves among several vintage pairs, and the Fort Belvedere gloves were the best of the bunch even before I started working with GG - Jack
Huge sympathies with the size 8 hat, and of course all the size 8 hats in my area are ballcaps and snapbacks, I ended up having to commission a flay cap from a shady, now defunct etsy tailor
I've bought some jackets that ended up costing more in tailoring because the sides had to be brought in too, which ends up costing 3x more. And slim fit pants
I enjoyed this video very much. Jack when you view videos before publication, what are the things that you are looking for, and have you ever said that a video has to be redone? A second question is when you do social media what does that entail?
Jack here - we have an extremely talented team of editors, so any reviews I make are really coming from a fresh pair of eyes to make sure things are accurate and entertaining. Regarding social media, it's anything from posting images, stories, commenting...you name it!
@@gentlemansgazette Oh! I misunderstood and thought you were the only one viewing the videos and did not realize that there are several pairs of eyes looking before publishing! Very cool! Thank you!
so, this is kinda unrelated to the topic, but this is the first time I've noticed the Tom's Town gin on the liquor table. I gave them a try a couple of years ago just because I loved the art deco design of the bottles, but it's quickly become one of my go-to gins for the $30-40 range
For me it was buying a vintage pocketwatch. seller said it was restored and ran on time. Turns out it was butchered and totally didn’t. So I’m now mentally preparing myself to spend more than double the buying price to get it repaired/maintained
Fun episode fellows! (Oh come on Jack, I would love to see you in a super tight pair of pants! Lol) Shoes/Laces n socks and Jacks outfit today are killer....A+++! Eb, you do look very Italian today. Cheers boys!
My first ever regret was on my first suit, because back then I only knew about the classic menswear with shallowness so I bought my first suit at an over-saturated and trend-following store. I have a pretty bulky configuration of my body, and my head is weirdly as big as the width of my chest, so having a continental style shouldn't be my approach. However, I went for the continental style, because they recommended so, I didn't think much about whether they were trying to cut corners on me so I gave them the green light. When I got it, it was pretty constraining, i heard about it before that my suit should be constricting but not too much, which i didn't know how much is enough so I thought that was normal, 'til i researched into more because i couldn't properly sit down with it most of the time. I really regret it to this day. However, my second was far better as i researched into it way deeper than before.
I love vintage - 1930s and 40s-era clothing. The repro company Cathcart in the UK makes wonderful clothing. That said, I bought a 3 pack of vintage-looking socks. While they are very well made, they are knee socks. I don't have - or wear - plus 4s so I don't need socks that are that high. On me, they feel uncomfortable squeezing my calves. I love buying Cathcart clothes but will pass on any more knee socks.
My biggest regrets are any shirts I bought that were made with polyester. Just by wearing those shirts, I could feel how cheap and plastic-y they were.
For the souvenir T-Shirts, find a local quilter to make a T-shirt quilt out of your shirts. Then you can put it out in your living room where it's a conversation piece and serves a purpose.
These are the same grey ones (You can see what they look like after 6 years in the video!) shop.gentlemansgazette.com/accessories/gloves/light-grey-mens-gloves-with-button-in-lamb-nappa-leather-by-fort-belvedere/?

This jacket features slits on both lapels so I decided to do something different - I tend to wear very colorful boutonniere and pocket squares so spacing them apart, when I can, reduces the visual clutter
so sad that today the most mens dont care about of there own appearance. regular fit jeans , sandals, sportsware, sneakers , oversized tshirts , discount clothing is most popular
Ironic that you're talking down about people's style of clothing when your grammar is atrocious. Apparently, you don't know the differences with 'there'.
Hello, I would like to know if you could make a focus video on the usage of dark blue and blue dress shoes, with recomendations on the usage and combinations with them. Thanks.
Who hasn’t made wardrobe mistakes that they regret I’m approaching 60 years old now and I think I’ve almost worked out what I like and works well By trial and error
Beyond the stuff you get from some of these mail order companies is their ability to deliver. Some companies have customer service that functions (e.g., Oliver Wicks) while others have robotic customer service that fail miserably (e.g. Hockerty). This is a logistical thing, but it can be important to deal with a company that responds and is flexible if you travel a lot between addresses (and it can be very frustrating when you deal with idiotic robots only). Did you ever do a video on that topic?
Those who need wheels under their luggage need to reconsider their packing. When I travel, a waxed holdall (or ultralight backpack for outdoor pursuits) always suffices. Whether on a weekend trip or on a summer holiday.
@@georgeleorgebeorge2354touché. But most people tend to pack far more than they actually need. I enjoy travelling light and have my clothes washed while underway. It saves so much volume.
You know you know I started out in menswear you only started out with I had this oversized suit I couldn't wear the pants so I just wore the jacket then later on I got this black three-piece slim fit suit and I still like wearing three-piece suits but where many more room you're fit now but yeah this black three-piece suit used to have I hated it honestly as soon as I got my light gray three-piece suit from Walmart boy I was so glad to have that compared to the the black slim fit when I had I hated it it didn't even fit me after that point I was too snug in the crotch therefore it was just it just didn't feel good so therefore I had to donate so now I would appreciate more also the fabric was immensely cheap like the lining of the right pocket or because he's he's to play criminal role plays don't ask why it's just something I did I'm just yeah
E.J., have the tourist t-shirts that you already have sewn into a quilt/throw blanket! My friend's mother did that with her ribbons won at equestrian events.
These two were tremendous! They need to be on camera more often!

Alright Chris! Your days are now numbered..... we are waiting! HA!
😂
Hello, I would like to know if you could make a focus video on the usage of dark blue and blue dress shoes, with recomendations on the usage and combinations with them. Thanks.
Nice one
I see a lot of beautiful overcoats in this video. Where do you get them?
Who hasn’t made wardrobe mistakes that they regret
I’m approaching 60 years old now and I think I’ve almost worked out what I like and works well
By trial and error
I regret the fact that my black socks *aren't* all exactly the same. I have no trouble wearing them, but pairing them after washday...
Beyond the stuff you get from some of these mail order companies is their ability to deliver. Some companies have customer service that functions (e.g., Oliver Wicks) while others have robotic customer service that fail miserably (e.g. Hockerty). This is a logistical thing, but it can be important to deal with a company that responds and is flexible if you travel a lot between addresses (and it can be very frustrating when you deal with idiotic robots only). Did you ever do a video on that topic?
Our closest topic would probably be this one: www.gentlemansgazette.com/rental-tuxedos-how-bad-are-they/?
I once bought a pair of red lumberjack braces that Monty Python might have used.
Huge head team unite!
Wow, finally!
Those who need wheels under their luggage need to reconsider their packing.
When I travel, a waxed holdall (or ultralight backpack for outdoor pursuits) always suffices. Whether on a weekend trip or on a summer holiday.
Not if I’m spending a couple of weeks in a place where I’m also likely to do shopping.
@@georgeleorgebeorge2354touché. But most people tend to pack far more than they actually need. I enjoy travelling light and have my clothes washed while underway. It saves so much volume.
Wasn't black Crombie a teddy boy or skin head coat?
Love E.J's style
Indeed - both of those groups were known for the black Crombie in the UK
You know you know I started out in menswear you only started out with I had this oversized suit I couldn't wear the pants so I just wore the jacket then later on I got this black three-piece slim fit suit and I still like wearing three-piece suits but where many more room you're fit now but yeah this black three-piece suit used to have I hated it honestly as soon as I got my light gray three-piece suit from Walmart boy I was so glad to have that compared to the the black slim fit when I had I hated it it didn't even fit me after that point I was too snug in the crotch therefore it was just it just didn't feel good so therefore I had to donate so now I would appreciate more also the fabric was immensely cheap like the lining of the right pocket or because he's he's to play criminal role plays don't ask why it's just something I did I'm just yeah
E.J., have the tourist t-shirts that you already have sewn into a quilt/throw blanket! My friend's mother did that with her ribbons won at equestrian events.
I have more regrets for the things I didn't bought. The things I actually have are there for the moment I would need them
Black socks are fine with boots. Can't salvage slim pants, though.
Preston looks far better with the facial hair, much more rugged and a nice contrast.
Find a magician! I’m sure you could find a rabbit in that top hat.
If black doesn't work with your wardrobe, then you wear lots of earth tones and navy. If you wore more charcoal and grey, it would be great.
Batman: The Animated Series was a good show. Well done with great music.
