Great review on the suit, but unwashed masses? That sounded a little elitist, don't you think?
Something my boss used to say. Hadn't given it more of a thought but the guy was a millionaire. Good call. Will reduce usage. Thank you.
Having a slovenly appearance is a choice made by many people and shows a lack of consideration for those around them.I think the comment was appropriate.
The Kavalier bullshit!! People are nasty on airplanes. Say what you want bro... who cares if people are offended. You can’t please everyone. Keep up the awesome work.
Yes, my boss was usually referring to people on planes too. and Billy is right. Everyone is right. What are words anyway 😛
I used to be part of the unwashed masses lol.Unfortunately when u start dressing well u start being more critical of other mens dressing style.When I see a guy with dirty running shoes with joggers I start rolling my eyes with disgust lol
I’m so happy I found ministry of supply and this review. I’m what you’d call “ transitioning “ from jeans and T-shirt wardrobe to grown up suit wardrobe. Doing it slowly... it’s a comfort confidence thing and I don’t want freak out from friends and family. Also losing weight helped a lot.
Glad you found me Sean, and hope you love the suit as well!
John, I am very happy you did this video, as I was interested in their technical innovation to the menswear community. I also just received my Durant oxfords from the Beckett Simonon December campaign, and I can say that they are a beautiful pair of shoes. They did not come with branded insoles or a shoehorn as shown in your video, but rather very thin black insoles and extra laces and individual dust bags. Another small detail was that the shoebox it came in was too big for my shoes. Also, according to their production updates, they hand polish their shoes at the factory before they ship them... something that even AE doesn't do. Anywas, I love your videos and I am glad that you recommended them to me because I didn't know that quality dress shoes could exist at that price point.
what's your pick between bluffwork's and this one from ministry of supply?
My pants have a Jeep Wrangler key pocket. Also serves as my extra magazine pocket.
Yes the jacket is a little short. Color and fit looks nice on you. Peace Ant
No more snow!
Thank you Ant! Good to see you again 😉
Oh I mentioned in your A.O.S. Suit review to order an extra pair of pants due to the wear& tear you'll get &/or in case your suit starts to deteriorate ogre time, do order another pair of pants in case they rip, stretch or deteriorate over time due to the wear& tear, it's always nice to have a backup plan somthng I'm going to start doing either ordering an extra pair of pants or the jacket
How does this compare to the Bluffworks Blazer?
would love to know that too!
How do you compare the Velocity Suit to the Bluffworks Gramercy Suit? Which looks more like a regular/formal suit and less tech? Durability comparisons?
Would it be a waste of money to buy anything from them if you work really really hard? Imagine a 77 hour work week or 7 days a week; doing the equivalent to modest cross fit training, working around narrow places where snagging is common, and in the outdoors for most of it. I ruin pants (and shoes the most). The pockets, buttons and zippers usually wear out after a year, and knicks appear sooner rather than later.
I think the fit score for the jacket is not all that high Doesn't have a nice silhouette
Great video
i don't get how this is supposed to be wrinkle free. the sleeves are wrinkly af
Great reviews. What do you think of state and liberty dress shirts? There’s not a lot of reviews on them.
I'm sorry but I'm not paying $500 for a suit. The blazer alone costs $498 while the dress pants are an additional $188 according to their website. Price gouging much?
Blazer costs that because dry cleaning cost will disappear after owning this blazer. Any tradional blazer would need dry cleaning. These can be machine washed.
That's the primary justification. Kinda a one and done. No wrinkles.... stains....
Never owned one. That's just my assumption as to why.
Thank you for your reviews I think I’m going to buy this suit. 😊
Ouch, that is too short
Is it just me, or are the gorge lines really low?
Big fan and love your work. Not sure if this been answered already, would you consider this for your first suit or go with Oliver wicks as it seems like the price are almost the same (~$600) ..assuming you don't need this for traveling.
Probably better to get a legit suit for your first one and not this style since it's a little less verstile.
Am pulling the trigger on this suit after watching this video! One question - is the suit in the video the Graphite color or the Charcoal? Cheers
Do they have summer clothing ? Like summer season suits?
Hope you make time for that 'pants with no belt loops' video!
So which is better? This or the bluffworks?
YESSS! A suit review!!!!
Don't worry, a few more coming soon
Lets go! I was wondering if you could do a tailor store shirt review or suit maby??
Tailor store shirt and pants video coming
Nice! I already ordered a baltha black dress shirt from ts.... it arrives 29.
A beautiful suit you do love your suits& you have more than I do, I'm looking into buying quite a few have to start putting money aside for my suits& there expensive but that's life I need to spend good money on suits like you do
An awesome video too& I have to say you look amazing in that white shirt it's beautiful, & im the same measurements as you. a 38R & 29-32R for the pants, 40 regular for the blazer/jacket is too big for me I think
Would you recommend getting this first or the blazer pant first? I wanna dress up and I’m still a complete newb.
Will the kinetic blazer give over time? My size 38 arrived today fits perfect barring the shoulders and arms. If it gives a little it’ll be amazing.
I’m worried 40 Will be too long
Nice! Do you think this updated one beats Bluffwork's now? Any notable differences in fit or which fabric looks better up close?
Fabric
Any experience with main stream performance lines like banana republic’s “smart-weight” suits? I’m just wondering how a main stream line compares to these up and comers when it comes to this specific category of clothes. For the record, I have yet the pleasure to try on any performance oriented suit at all so this is just curiosity If main stream lines just aren’t worth it these days.
I consider Charles Tyrwhitt as mainstream? Definitely need to include more Gap, BNR JCrew etc this year. Good suggestion!
did you have a tailor pull in the 40 coat? I am between a 44 and 46, the 44 fits trim but the 46 feels like a tent. just curious if getting the 46 brought in is the right move or sticking with the trimmer look of the 44.
Nice review ! I will buy a wool suit from amazon but i have a question , how do you recognize a true calvin klein suit or fake calvin klein suit wool?
Try the xsuit
Jacket does indeed need to be longer.
Do the pants fit low on the hips. I would avoid putting anything in the pants pocket.
4:47 You all peep that flex? 💪🏻
I'd like to hear your opinion on Paul Parkman shoes!!!
Need to get those ordered!
I am looking to upgrade my suit collection and I watch all of your videos. I feel like you love all of them but I would like to know which company is your favorite.
Yes, love each of them for their own traits. Once I open up my iTailor and Hockerty suits I'll get the roundup finished.
nice!
Jacket needs to me much much longer.
Stanning
o.m.g
I’m usually a 31 waist on most pants brands. Any advice on these as to sizing? 32 slim?
Worth going with that one, the thigh is very comfortable on me in that size. Free exchanges worst case scenario...
this suit vs bluffworks? I just bought the bluffworks and now I'm confused haha
If the bluffoworks fits then you're golden! I think both are great but I like the fit options in the Bluffworks and made in USA aspect. Great choice Jeffrey!
@@The_Kavalier do you think both can pass as a normal suit? or does Velocity suit blend in better?
I want too give you two thumbs up for bringing the bacon Andy eggs back
That is the Charcoal Grey color right?
Yes. Saw they just added a new lighter gray color yesterday!
@@The_Kavalier Awesome! Love your channel, great stuff.
That jacket looks really short on you.
Have you tried the online tailor company called Hockerty? You should give it a go and let us know on your thoughts.
Video coming very soon! Ordered one in January.
Waaaaaay to short
So modern 🧐
What are your stats? You appear small.
Meant to mention it. 6'4 170lb
The Kavalier Thanks
He maybe small but he's awesome, a genius, legend& a gem for what he does on The Kavalier that was formed on the channel, he's taught me a lot of new things since I subscribed to the channel, it's always a 👍Up from me & 10/10 rating
Love the suit, Jon but you had one misstep and you know what I'm referring to.
He fit looks awful
The jacket is MUCH too short....looks ridiculous.
