i'm a 24 year old and recently discovered this channel. I love your style PROFF.
With great pleasure sir 😁
Yeah, Proff Is A Fly Guy!
@ayabulelamkhwanazi4586 I'm also 24! I'd say it's a wonderful thing I came across him at this point in my life.

You can be fashionable while wrestling wild stallions. The subtle humor while imparting sartorial advice is priceless.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Prof has the unmitigated nerve to pair that suit with a toast colored tie!!! I love it!!!
UNMITIGATED NERVE 😂
I’m LOVING THIS Ramona 🙌🏾
Possibly the best introduction to a podcast in the entire history of podcasts.
There you go Fete 😁🙌🏾
This guy even speak elegance, I'm just addicted to this channel, going now to my first even bespoke, wish me luck 😊
Good luck Mark. Bespoke clothing is an investment and should last you a lifetime, if you take care of your clothes and maintain your physique. Do extensive research and go slow. Welcome to AskOkey.
Love Pete’s outfit. Nothing beats a classic gabardine
ABSOLUTELY 💯
I agree. First thought upon seeing him.
Lol Peter is a gem
100% Eric
The most I've ever dressed up in my life was a polo shirt and faded slacks, bespoke is a world far removed from my own. And yet I still find myself watching these videos start to finish whenever they come out. The reverence in which you discuss each piece/topic is addicting and listening to the (what I would consider) esoteric knowledge passing between the two of you scratches an itch I never thought I had. Thank you for sharing!
Very well said Brother Shamus
In my experience, the yearning for knowledge is universal and cuts across genres
I find myself also drawn to subjects that don’t involve my daily activity - simply for the purpose of LEARNING
Welcome to AskOkey 😁
PROFF
Well said my friend
@@andremiller7725 Of course Andrew my man 🔥
PROFF
I really enjoy listening to these two gentlemen talk. 💯🙏🏾
Thank you Anthony 😁
Likewise delightful to have you on here
PROFF
Am I the only one that thinks Pete is just too cool for school? I love the guy.
@@dominic5472 He is indeed Dominic 🔥
Not taking anything away from Okey...I noticed that Pete also is very knowledgeable, and quite entertaining. Does he have a separate channel?
NO Joseph
Pete here. Sorry, no. Just give Proff a hand now and again
The closeup of the fabrics in this video really show a glimpse of how magnificent the fabrics would appear in person.
I wish some of the shots could linger longer or perhaps pan over the fabric while being described.
The lavender suit fabric in particular deserved a closer and longer inspection, it was quite nice!
Thank you Bellie Bum 😁
We will consider a future segment in this suit
Welcome aboard
PROFF
Man I love your drape game, such elegance
Much appreciated sir.
Thanks for your positive reply I’m working on rebuilding my wardrobe, I’ve given away the suits and clothing I was not wearing to my church and replacing them with more quality clothing. Although I don’t have any bespoke clothing, I’ve picked up a few Hart Schaffner and Marx suits and I I’ve got a Blazer coming. I’ve still got a lot of work to do but it’s a true labor of love . I just feel so fly when I’m sporting outstanding outfits. You gentlemen have truly set the bar high and although I couldn’t reach that level I can take what you’re instructing to make the most of the apparel I can afford. I really appreciate the work you guys are doing.
Thank you Ray. Wear your amazing tailored garments well 🔥
Excellent conversation and top-notch style information, I've personally added to my own dressing well sartorial savvy thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Every time I think one outfit this man wears cannot be beat, he then out does himself!
Is that right?? 😅
Welcome aboard Lewy 🔥
Thanks for all the education in these podcasts! I am a student of professional ware so I really appreciate it!
With great pleasure Ryan 😁
Welcome aboard 🔥
Love it! What a geezer Peter is! And the Proff :-)
Quite a character he (Peter) is Tony 😅
That's a magnificent outfit, Proff. My compliments.
Thank you ABC 🙏🏾

You’re welcome Chelo 😁
PROFF
Fascinating stuff ! Well done gentlemen 👍
Thank you Lorand
Thanks, I’ve more time to work on my new look now that I’m retired. Your podcast is awesome, very informative and fun.
Of course Ray 😁
You’re welcome aboard good sir 🔥
I love the Profs style also and at 72 years of age I’ll never reach his level but if I can get anywhere in the area I’ll be very happy. I feel very confident when I know I’m looking good. The compliments along with the attention is indescribable. Both of these men are at the top of the game. Impeccable.
There you go Ray 🔥
I’m quite sure you can pull off any of PROFF’s looks with exquisite panache 😁
PROFF
U can get it. 💯
@@princenosiatajansen OF COURSE 🔥
Anyone can with a little dedication
Please bring your famous "sibling" Samuel L. Jackson to your show sometime!
Aside from looks, you two share so much in terms of sartorial sophistication!
THANK YOU, SIR, true elegance starts with knowledge 🙏🏼
New to finding the chanel and love the videos. Wonderful
You’re exceedingly welcome ❤
PROFF
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you Bishop 😁
PROFF

I wish I had the guts and occasion to wear Okeys amazing suit
@@greg555story Of course you do Greg 😁
Make one up 🔥
Nice. This is Style.
Thank you Prince 🔥
Okey - First I have to say I'm almost 50 being a busy father, with a dad body, I never really thought of style and elegance, however, I think you just convinced me I just love your style. 10 years ago I went for a holiday to Thailand and Vietnam and was inundated by tailors trying to sell me suits, at very competitive prices. I am almost considering to go back for a vacation just to get suited up, Tell me is there an general consensus of of Asian tailors and materials and what is your opinion,
Thank you good sir and welcome to AskOkey
The problem with south Asian tailors especially in Hong Kong, Vietnam etc. - these places where they could churn out a suit in 48 hours
The problem here is QUALITY
Most of those suits can be had for a song (couple hundred dollars) but they are mostly fused and will fall apart very quickly
If you don’t care about quality and just want an inexpensive suit, fine. But if you care about quality, SAVE YOUR MONEY and visit a PROPER TAILOR
It will cost you more but you’ll get more use out of it
Welcome aboard Adelaide 😁
PROFF
Just discovered your channel, fantastic info & I tune in just to see what you are wearing.
I love the suit that you are wearing, it would be the first colour suit I would order from you
Welcome to AskOkey !
Great idea. We will slot it into the schedule
I'm going to have to go across the pond and get one of these suits myself...
Spring 2024 I'll Make My Way over
READY when you are Adonis 😁
PROFF
Excellent advice from these chaps. Love the style and fabrics. ❤.
Do you have avdice about how to choose a siut for a clasaic car? I like to look as good as the car I'm driving
Not really Sir …
I’m not sure how one would match a suit to a car. I suppose you could employ your own imagination 😁
Thank you for your kind words and welcome to AskOkey 💯
PROFF
Would like to have a video about overcoats- another classic gentleman's garment.
Coming soon Samir 💯
Hello proff okey and his Team. Great show, great garments. I have a question. How do you recommend to clean your shirts. Do you do it by yourself, do you trust a dry cleaning store or have a special dry cleaner? Some of my shirts get damaged in the past by an non educated dry cleaner. What do you do?
Thanks a lot also for your knowledge and inspiration.
Greetings from Germany.
I simply toss my shirts in the washer and line dry. Never in a heated dryer
PROFF
Greetings, Mr. "Proff"!
I would like to know your professional opinion about the half canvassed construction of suit jackets.
Avoid it unless cost is an issue. ALWAYS GO FULL CANVAS
Wonderful conversation. I love how old fashioned you both sound, it's refreshing.
I have a question that could very well morph into a suggestion: what about the younger audience?
I myself belong to that portion, and I often feel like I could never pull off your elegance. Why not make a video with pointers directed to people such as myself?
You can absolutely pull off the elegance of PROFF. All you need is practice and solid education, which, if you're here, is very accessible, and through that, you achieve confidence in your style.
Eventually, you'll make every outfit your own by having the trust in yourself to wear the garmets that flatter you the most. Style is identity.
This is coming from a young man like yourself. Thank you for the lovely comment and question.
- Hashim
Calling someone old fashioned is like complimenting them and slapping them in the face at the same time always more diplomatic ways to say things.
@@lawfulbeneficiary1731 The positivity of my comment is clear. If you want to find something to get offended over, today isn't your lucky day.
@@omarwest2430 I’m not trying to get offended or mainly you’re blinded by constructive criticism call someone old fashioned and see if they appreciate your compliments old fashions means dated who wants to be called that you can do anything you choose all I’m simply saying is there’s better ways to say things it has nothing to do with getting offended but regardless have a wonderful day
Did plenty of times. Nobody ever got offended. May I suggest a quick look at the dictionary?
Greetings !
I have naturally thick thighs and almost every pair of trousers I have wears out really fast between the legs in the crotch area.
Can you please recommend which kind of fabric should I choose for high waisted pants to wear with suspenders ?
Thank you very much !
Hello Jorva,
It is not so much a question of “CLOTH” as it is one of “CUT”
I too have very muscular legs/thighs. You need FULL CUT TROUSERS.
They need to be cut very FULL in the thighs to minimize friction in the crotch.

Welcome to AskOkey

@@AskOkeyInc Thank you very much !

"I stopped radiating anything several years ago" 😂 this guys is a comedian.
Great segment.
May I suggest a subject for the future? While not a matter of clothing, I believe it touches upon similar aspects: cigars, and Cuban cigars specifically. I know Mr Okey is an aficionado, and both cigars and clothing is matters of quality, craftsmanship and finer things in life. Maybe invite someone with the same interest for Habanos like Mr. Okey. You should have plenty of such gentlemen to invite where you reside. Otherwise, a segment where you discuss the matter between the two of you.
Couple of suggestions: what do you have in your humidor (maybe a tour)? What's your favourite smoke? Why Cubans? How do they stand next to non Cubans? How has the market developed for Cuban cigars? Your take on the Spanish partial takeover of Habanos? How has the Chinese takeover affected the Cuban cigar industry after that? Which development will we see in the future with Cubans being more accessible to Chinese customers in terms of quality and price? Have you been to Cuba yourself? Impressions? Do you see a loft of the American embargo for Cuban cigars (it's been discussed before)? Etc etc.
I'm a strictly Cuban cigar smoker myself, so I'd love such a segment.
WOW Sandro, isn’t that Kirby Allison’s job? 😅
He might not take too kindly to PROFF discussing cigars on a clothing channel you know 😉
Something to think about …
PROFF
@@AskOkeyInc no one does it as Proff. Bring in your own Sahakians and make it happen, brother! 😂
@@SandroMagna Ok Sandro ….
But I’ll tread very softly 😅
PROFF
Peter Is So Dry And Bland (Compared To Proff), He Reminds Me Of Someone Who Should Have Been On The TV Show Mad Men, Lol
Is that right ?? 😁
@@AskOkeyInc 😁
I would love to see better close ups on the fabric, i can understand the colors in the fabric, but id like to have a better idea of what the weave looks like.
We will do further segment on this suit with close ups
Thank you Rogelio 🔥
PROFF
Oakey’s style is too “flash” for most men. Lavender tweed is a little over the top. Beautifully cut suits worn with style but much too flashy.
NO PROBLEM Walter
It’s my Friday Night Suit 😅
Hi Mr.Peter love you very much, handsome &well dress
It’s all very nice but looks like was made last century.
OK 😅
Each to their own
PROFF
Peter wish can with you ❤️ 😊😊
Nothing fruity with this fashion
It is sooooo masculine
No fruit salad stitched here
Simplicity is too boring , linen and cotton are the best fabrics , bold colors and patterns are fun and youthful.
Agreed 💯 Cityman
PROFF
Yes, Okey - What in the H*ll are you wearing? Lavender? Seriously, even if I actually like the look you can’t be pulled to a suit in that color. Oh my God, I just can’t believe you would do such a thing…
Well I just did 🤷🏾♂️
I love you darling, uare very handsome, especially that white older gentleman ❤😊
My dear white gentleman, love you my dream man
