- In today's video, join me as I unbox my bespoke linen masterpiece from renowned British tailors, Kent Haste & Lachter. I also reveal my first custom-tailored shirt from Stephen Lachter, which perfectly complements the suit.
The featured suit is meticulously crafted from a 12 oz WW Bill linen fabric, known for its superior quality, luxurious feel, and the ideal balance it strikes between structure and comfort. As I try on this masterpiece, marvel at its flawless fit and how it enhances my silhouette.
From the initial consultation to the final fitting, every step of this journey with Kent Haste & Lachter underscores the unmatched quality and tradition of British bespoke tailoring. I am privileged to wear their creations and be part of their illustrious legacy.

If that suit looks this good on camera I can only imagine what it looks like in person. Splendid work here from Kent Haste.
Indeed! Even better in person!
After watching this series I really want to get a suit made by these guys. Wonderful people.
Same but ÂŁ6k i just canât afford to spend on a suit. I got a made to measure which was expensive but about 1/4 of the price of a fully bespoke & itâs incredible.
Fantastic suit and great banter from the tailors. They need their own show.
The best!
Terry's sense of humor deeply resonates with me and I find him effortlessly hilarious. My enjoyment is further elevated when Kirby jumps in and gives it back to him. Lovely gentleman all!
The suit and shirt are great examples of craftsmanship at its best.
Seeing the two of them work together was incredible! The suit and shirt were delivered perfect together!
That suit is Magnificent. The fit is glorious, thank you Kirby. Great video. Perfect for summer viewing.
It might possibly be my favorite suit! However, every suit that Terry has made always becomes my favorite⌠until he makes the next one! đđ
I had a relationship with my tailor like this. She was so old school in making alterations and garmets. She passed from breast cancer some years ago. Seeing these vids reminda me of her. Ty Kirby
Still saving to have full morning dress and a crisp white shirt made at KH&L, so excited for the process to begin once I hit the saving goal. Masters of their craft!
Bucket list worthy!
The John Kent suit is a certified banger! Such a lovley cut and it fits Kirby beautifully. The new linen suit and shirt are gorgeous as well but that true classic look of the Kent is something else đ
It's amazing watching these guys at work, but it's also really interesting to watch your interactions with them and the conversations you have. I think you have built a really good relationship with them.
By the way, that linen suit looks amazing. Nice heavy material, which I cant unsee. Every other linen suit will now look inferior.
the suit reflects the casual style and easy going banter of the whole video, great stuff
It was a brilliant suit for this trip to Italy!
"Asymmetric shoulders, incredibly hollow back and the stoop forward. All things my wife loves." Kirby đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
"My figure is diabolical." Mr. Lactherđđđ
Love the craftsmanship. But the self roasting was hilarious. Great series.
I love every video with the Kent, Haste, and Lachter crew! Especially the pattern-making and cutting videos. Such masters of their craft and all seen like lovely people. Wonderful to watch and try and learn a few pointers about tailoring.
I love filming them!
The suit is beyond words. Pure craftsmanship. In addition how beautiful is this lady ?
What a beautiful suit. I've always wanted a linen suit. I never knew or thought about the weight of the linen being a factor with the wrinkles. That's really good information.
Yes! Heavyweight linen ârollsâ
I always watch these bespoke commission series: Kent & Haste, Henry Poole, Sartorial Gallo/Jensen, etc. multiple times.
Living vicariously through you Mr. Kirby.
Always enjoy the banter with Kent Haste & Lachter!
Theyâre the best!
That suit is incredible. What a great episode, this is ASMR for me.
I really enjoy these videos. These tailors are excellent and I love learning about suit making from them. The suits are always amazing no matter who makes them but I do love the linen!!
"With Terry I don't mind because he forgets who he is" Lol. Beautiful outfit. Great suit and shirt combination.
Stellar piece of tailoring!
3-2 roll, patch pockets, linen cloth, centre vent !
Absolutely fabulous
Kirby Iâm off to London
OMG... WOW!! đ I THINK THIS IS MY FAVORITE YET, MAGNIFICENT SHIRT AND DRAPE.... WOWâ¤đ˘
That is an amazing suit and the shirt is a perfect fit. Iâm trying to imagine it with a nice tie but to be perfectly honest I feel I like the casual look with out the tie. Thank you for sharing this experience.
A beautiful suit and a fantastic process, thanks for sharing this with us Kirby, i hope sometime you will come to Dublin to check out some of our fine clothes and makers.
Fantastic video. Wonderfully friendly and humerus tailors!
Congratulations on your third suit from Kent Haste & Lachter. I am usually not a fan of linen cloth but this suit looks great. And the shirt looks fantastic.
Not a menswear/bespoke connoisseur by any means but this might honestly be the best suit/shirt combo Iâve seen on here yet. The pieces sit so well & I like the color aesthetic of both garments.
Beautiful shade of blue
Haha. Great video and even better banter all round. đđ
Looking fantastic as usual Kirby. đđĽ
Great stuff kirby..I have enjoyed every minute of Kent Haste & Lachter..what an exquisite yet elegant complement from you at the end of the video
Another K H & L gem is revealed.. Mollie! Are there more?! đ
Beautiful suit and cut
I really wanted to see Kirby pick the perfect tie for this shirt pattern and jacket colour. I was very interested in the thought process.
Nice vid, great work!
Beautiful combination of suit and shirt
I know! Great choices by Terry and Stephen!
fire suit wow! even better with no tie.
Absolutely, very grand, good noble Sir. â¨đđŠđâ¨đĽâ¨đžâ¨đĽâ¨đđŠđâ¨đđť
Absolutely, have excellent afternoon. â¨đđŠđâ¨đđť
OH BEAUTIFUL đ 𤊠đ
Great video Kirby
Beautiful suit.
Always look forward to your videos, Kirby! Excellent!
Loved the tailoring team banter; great suit and shirt ensemble, Kirby. Incredible craftmanship.
Not sure about the banter đ but the craftsmanship sure is great!
When you put the jacket on I was like âWOWâ. That linen is the cats meow! Wonderful fit and it looks fantastic. I love the way the shirt collar and sleeves behave and merge with the jacket.
Yeah! The jacket is beautiful! And the best thing is that it has excellent structure! Feels amazing!
Johnâs suit is such a great suit đđť. Personally I feel that the only place for a monogram on a shirt is on the front seam and below the waist so it remains unseen during wear. Itâs not Showpard! đ but very funny in any case. Stephenâs collar really works well and the new suit is great too.
I am firmly against monograms in shirt cuffs, but I do feel that the monogram above the waistband to be subtle and elegant.
You deserve 1 million subscribers and I deserve a share in your company!
đ
Most I've ever seen Kirby SMILE....
Great humor these two..
Great video
my god that's a perfectly tailored jacket
Hi Kirby,
Thank you for your bespoke tailoring sartorial splendor educational CZcams videos.
Next time, please talk about the suit jacket's lining and inside pockets.
All the best to you,
Eric Prentis
I'm a tailor too in some little ways, I love tales, Hasty and Lighter.
Their stories are the best!
I was skeptical of this suit but its turned out well
Yeah. I found the three button single vent with patch pockets a bit surprising as well, but I trusted Terry and went out in a limb. And it paid off big!
Kirby, youâre are saving lives and relationships my friend.
Keep going đ
That is a great color.
I'm making my plans for a business trip to London. Kirby's knowledge has helped me be all I deserve to be.
1st stop .... Trufitt and Hill
2nd stop .... Davidoff
3rd stop .... Huntsman
Make sure you tell everyone hello!
4th stop Floris if it was my trip.
Trufitt are great
After a long day of shopping, I'd recommend a martini at Duke's as well.
I miss John!!! Is he doing better? I like the banter between him and Terry! The subtle jokes never stop with these old school Britts! haha
I know! Would be wonderful to get him back! We should start sending him petition letters!
I work 6 day week in overalls and donât have a chance of wearing great clothes but maybe when I retire Iâll be able to wear great suits so cool đ
Can always wear a suit to church on Sunday!
@@kirbyallison yes respect
Kirby reminds me of a modern day 'Elliott Templeton' with way too many suits! LOL.
That Coller sitting higher is perfect for that style, high and proud... just gorgeous kirbs!!!!đđđ
too bad Suyamba isn't there tho đ but great suit ! đ
Oh, Suyamba went on holiday. Well deserved.
Agreed weâll deserved for her!!! Iâm in holiday as well, only took 2 years and a mental breakdown before my boss decided to approve I can have time off :/.
Haha.
@@nativeamericanwillhope you get better mentally during your time away
Thank you for this episode. The three of them seem like very nice people. Iâve never heard of this tailoring house before.
And thank you for promoting higher waist trousers. I personally canât stand seeing low sitting skinny pants anymore. Itâs a ridiculous fashion that refuses to disappear. One would think it should have disappeared quickly, like the infamous flared bell bottoms disappeared after only a few years, but the skinny low waisted pant look persists despite the designers actually trying to push the wider silhouette. Most men just refuse to wear higher wasted and wider trousers, thinking that this will, somehow, make them look older and less âsexyâ, I guess. What ignorance and a lack of basic understanding of shape, balance, proportions, and form.
Kirby looks like the million dollar man, give him a raise.
The fit and style of the jacket looks fantastic except for the collar gap and the wide lapels. Like King Charles, I also prefer jetted pockets rather than patched. The trousers looks very nice except for the 2 inch cuffs
This suit is so fucking clean.
Letâs start a list for @Kirby Allison ⌠synonyms for hallmark.
Telltale sign
John Kent suit makes you look like the leading man of a Hitchcock thriller.
What's the T-Bar looking gold thing through the lapel please? Is it a pocket watch or just a chain?
Beautiful suit. But do I detect the slightest of collar gaps?
I have been looking forward to this one. So it made today the perfect Saturday when it dropped. I put it up on the big screen, poured myself a good measure of Laphroaig Quarter Cask, lit a Montechristo (the wife's away!) and let it wash over me. Best half hour in a long time (well, since the last one at least). Very well done, but a small continuity error in the edit: In the closeup shot of the trousers at 20'37 Kirby is suddenly wearing the coat, even though we haven't got to it yet! In the following shot he's in his shirt sleaves again. A very, very minor complaint, I admit.
Kirby's channel is undoubtedly the best sartorial (and general gentlemanny persuits) channel on youtube! Period.
Support it via Patrion, I have done for quite a long time now an it's definitely worth it!
Youâre the best! Thank you! Knowing that I have people such as yourselves who know how to enjoy these videos in style makes the hard work to film and edit them with it!
Can most of these shops design suits for the portly?
Wait did Terry say that was one of John's last suits? Did something happen?
I say those master tailors with the đŹđ§ London, accent if you have the funds can make you commission a suit đ
Whatâs the latest from John (if youâre at liberty to say). His presence has been missed in these recent videos. :(
Oh, wait, wait, wait, that reminds me something, which movie; oh, I see, the Great Gatsby, the Great Kirby, in that linen you look like the Great Gatsby, the Great Kirby (I'm sorry), I told you than, you are a great actor, and all these little players constitute, I mean substitute, as important pieces for the entire play. I study Dogen's philosophy of enlightenment, you know what Dogen thought about that, the greatest enlightened person is the person at the same time greatly deluded. What is greatness indeed without the Great Kirby, that's the question of the century!
Haha. Very kind!
Is Mr. Kent no longer working? I heard the word âwouldâ in reference to him a few times.
What is a 12/13? In ounces?
How much ?
đĽđŠ
Wonder how many of yall stopped watching when when they said Suyambaâs on vacation lol.
NIce, but where is the viewer's favourite, Sumbaya?
Off on vacation but back for our next video! We are going to film a surprise fitting while they are at their trunk show in New York this October!
No mention of John, how is he ?
They said "John was always right", I hope it doesn't mean what I think it does.
John is enjoying retirement so much, apparently, that he never even calls! đ
is that W.Bill WB61318?
Not sure! Sorry!
Show me the Cuba, baby!
The shirt collar looks really nice and the cut is great too. But what disturbs me is that The stripes on the shirt yoke don't match the sleeves. That's disappointing coming from a renowned bespoke tailoring house.
The suit looks really good too! The fit, the pockets top notch. Just not a fan of the short lapels and 3 button style
top G
Kirby are you open to sharing who your graphic designer is for your thumbnails? The typography is amazing.
is the top of the arms connecting to the shoulder too baggy ?
I see what you mean. I think with a linen suit thereâs that tricky seesaw between creating a body shape that is flattering coupled with a sense of casualness. Thereâs a forgiveness with linen summer suits, however at the same time only so much a light fabric can do whilst staying breathable. Kirby is fairly static in the video for obvious reasons but in reality heâll be dynamic and gestural so the suitâs roominess will work well under genuine social conditions I think.
I think it's just the shoulder construction they use giving this impression. This suit does look really great but having been to Italy just now, I still prefer the summer suits from Italy. Soft shoulders and rounder patches just go too well with the summer fabrics.
I think so, but what do i know. Those shoulder sleeve dimples drive me nuts. Hard pass
What would a shirt cost from these gents?
Mr Allison, how tall are you, just out of curiosity?
5â10â
What happened to John??
like gumpy
Linen suits are the best. And thereâs no contest. Forget silk. Forget cashmere. Forget Egyptian cottton. Forget tweed. Linen baby.
Flat front trousers always look cheap to me. The big billowing pleats don't look nice, but form-fitting pleats, that's the elegance right there. I'm pleased to see that pleat are "back" in general.
But I really dislike patch pockets. It what the cheapest nastiest secondary school blazers use. Just a big nope from me on that.
But the trousers look very, very good.
Glad you enjoyed the trousers!
Good answer..I will be wearing a tan suit 2 church in a few hours..your suit looks fabulous..peace
As nice as these shirts are, the preeminent maker would be Ascot Chang, who is shirt maker to your own US Presidents.
You know what I first thought when I saw your first video, "What an idiot," but as Dogen would say, things change, and for some people in a good way.
đ
Swear he must be Ben Mendleson's father or something
"you know"...
Kirby needs to hit the gym, fill out those amazing cloths.
If I hit the gym, theyâd no longer fit!
Suyamba enjoyers rejoice
Nvm.. đ˘
Heres a suit that a funeral director wouldn't wear.
Finally!
