My New Linen Suit! | First Fitting | Kent, Haste & Lachter
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 07. 2024
- I am heading back to London, and that means the opportunity to stop by and visit the wonderful team at Kent, Haste & Lachter. These incredible tailors did such an amazing job with my double bespoke commission that I was desperate to move on to another project with them. Lucky for me, Terry Haste already had some plans up his sleeve.
Terry suggested that my next commission be a bespoke linen suit! Who am I to argue with such a legendary tailor!
So today I am lucky enough to be able to head over to Sackville street and visit Terry and Suyamba for a first fitting of this beautiful linen two piece suit!

Awww, so sad to hear John is retiring. He was an absolute legend and a proper “old school gent.” Enjoy your retirement good sir!

If it would be possible to do a sit down interview conversation with John on a future visit that would be really something. He is such a character, had fantastic skill and seen such history in his line of work. Would be a nice touching conversation. Amazing Kirby was able to document the whole process with both Kent and Haste regardless!
The Sahakians with John would be great, a more relaxed atmosphere to get John's stories flowing.
I agree. Mr. Allison is in a unique position to further document the life and times of a master craftsman. I would like to see a 6 or 8 part documentary (about 30 min each) with Kirby interviewing John on coming up through the trades, life in London, the future of the profession, etc. Maybe each segment could be shot in a historically significant location - either to London or to John. This of course, if done properly, would be an expensive undertaking, but I would be willing to help fund it. I say Floris makes a limited run scent, chosen by John, exclusive to Mr. Allison's business, with the profits dedicated to the documentary. I would buy a bottle. I wish John a lot of joy in retirement. I enjoyed watching him on the past episodes of Mr. Allison's CZcams channel - he brought some joy to my life.
I agree with your idea, as John was tailoring during the last hayday of tailoring. As I do not foresee the tailoring trade returning to how it once was 50-100+ years ago, due to the advancements of technology in the larger garment industry. I do believe there will always be tailors, but in the larger picture they will become an ever so shrinking part of the market. And as many of these Master Craftsman, they made tailoring their life's work, starting off at a very young age. Preserving Johns story of tailoring would really help preserve the knowledge and history of tailoring, and could very well help to inspire others to look into taking up the trade.
Loved when Kurby asked "so what do you think?" They both took a step back as if a new duo.
Sad to see John go, but Terry and Suyamba are keeping the wit alive. Very excited to meet Steven in the next episode
You should have a cuppa tea with John at some point
John will be missed. Part of tailoring passes into history. Be great to do a sit-down interview with him.
I feel like there’s a huge amount of wholesomeness in this video. I’m not one to comment usually but this just felt so unashamedly genuine.
This is what everything felt like in the 90s.
Bless you John, an honour to see a glimpse of your craft, rest well sir and hope to see you back at some point.
So sad that John is not there anymore, the three of them together were comedy gold. Terry must be feeling a little bit lost I would imagine after having John around as his partner and friend for so many years. You could see the real difficulty John was having trying to walk and stand so it was obviously time for him to hang up the tape measure. Enjoy your retirement sir. Sandstone is a great way to describe the colour of the suit, it's a fantastic colour. I was going to comment that you need to have a shirt made by Stephen and we get to see that happen next episode, can't wait see the end result.
We're all very sad to hear John retire, but privileged to witness one of his last masterpieces that is the double bespoke commission!
Kirby old boy, you simply must give your loyal viewers more Suyamba !!!
Oh boy, coming back to Kent and Haste so soon, you're out for blood kirby and I am happy to give it. Love these guys!
Hopefully we get a video from Kirby where he gets to sit down and have a long conversation with John!
I am so very sad that John is not there to be in this video and that he won’t be in subsequent videos - I’m glad we have the videos he was featured in. Perhaps you can interview John in his home one day soon.
Very sorry to hear John has retired but I wish him all the very best, he was such a unique gentleman.
I still can't take my eyes off Sayumba's hair! She's so beautiful and has amazing hair!!
Kirby, you look amazing in that suit! Another proper job achieved!!!
Thank you for yet another amazing episode with these legends ❤
Loving the kent and haste series, been watching an episode a night, this piece looks absolutely gorgeous, can’t wait for the next episode 👍🏻👌🏻🇬🇧
Looking great already! A Cuban cigar would almost be an accessory to this suit!
Aww John ❤💔
So glad you captured that charming man and master craftsman on film
What a classic looking suit I love the higher lapel
@@cathydrumobich9045 As if Kirby's tastes aren't generally out of date already. Oops, sorry, I meant "traditional" 😂 But in reality it'll look fine as long as he's comfortable in it. A person uncomfortable in a "modern" style will look worse than a person comfortable in an "out of date" style.
@@cathydrumobich9045 Whatever that means. Why "fit in" when most people are wearing jeans and sneakers all the time?
Kirby, I love seeing the full shot of you walking in the birds-eye suit John made you in the beginning of this video. The reason I say full shot is you can really see how well proportioned the trousers are tailored. I find that today trousers are getting much skinnier, but these just look perfect! Gorgeous suit and perfectly tailored. Congrats!
Beautiful is what she is!!!
I actually love this channel so much
Kirby has an obsession, always interesting to watch people with such passion for things.
Well done Kirby I love these guys and their team and of course the beautiful Suyamba . Shame about hearing about John's retirement . Love their banter with you.
Love this suit, ...congratulations 🎉 to John on his retirement
Quality content again Kirby . You have opened my eyes into another world.
"sometimes, always, never" like it!
I'm sorry to hear about John .him and Terry were just so funny with their banta feeding off each other will be sadly missed .amazing episode thankyou kirby 👏
Kirby another excellent video. Sad to hear John has retired. As many many others have said in the comments a sit down interview with him would be a great way to pass a few hours. We all enjoy your videos in our own unique way be it with a drink, a cup of tea or perhaps with a cigar. Looking forward to the next video already.
It just occurred to me that by making these videos for his business Kirby has found a way to make his bespoke suits tax deductible. Now I enjoy the videos even more!
Beethoven Op. 2 #3! Your musical choices continue to be impressive--
Just downloaded Shazam to find out what the music was! And it is indeed Opus 2 No 3. Which Shazam tells me is Piano Sonata No. 3 in C Major. And it's the first movement, Allegro con brio.
Absolutely fantastic video
Love your content Kirby! Even as I’m wearing sweatpants and a hoodie 🤣. Would be excited to see more dedicated watch videos at some point as I’m sure you can assemble the right group to properly discuss the topic.
That is going to be a nice suit.
Super video, I’d visit them just for the banter! What a great place.
Bless john, wish him all the best
Suyamba, that was funny, you said, “Terry cries sometimes after work.” 😊
Another great video! John should be the focus of the next "Connoisseurs in Conversation" episode.
I wish I was as articulate with the small talk. What a skill.
Kirby: Was disappointed to hear about John retiring. He was great in the last video series. Maybe you could do an interview series with him and get his perspective on bespoke and how styles have changed over the years. His knowledge and presentation of that knowledge were great in your Double Bespoke Commission series. It would be a shame for that knowledge to go unrecorded.
Sorry to hear John has had to retire. Wish him all the best and hopefully he can recuperate and enjoy the rest.
By far my two Favorite Chaps
This looks amazing
Thank you for all you do and very detailed
Good show, John.
Hello, love your channel. My wife bought me the same DuPont lighter in the 1980’s for my birthday that you have also purchased. I had mine since it was sold in the store! Just saw a movie drama that I bought you might enjoy. It’s called The Outfitter and it takes place in a tailor shop in Chicago in the 1940’s. The entire film is shot inside the shop! Best Wishes to your successes!
-michael
Sharp as always
I'm certainly not belittling her skill or devaluing her abilities, but Suyamba is freaking **adorable** . Yes, she's pretty, but I really like her sense of humor and she's smart as whip.
I don't want this to seem creepy. I have my wife and just stupidly happy with her. Besides, I'm old enough to be Suyamba's grandfather. Whoever her partner is is fortunate and I hope they are happy.
love when you have kent and haste on the videos theyre great fellas, very funny too.
have you ever been to Liverpool, UK?
Need a sit down interview with Jon if you can , he must have soo many stories to tell !!
Great. Thank you
The Best ASMR 🥰
Pleased you did meet Stephen. Looks like another nice suit Kirby
I hear this conversation on how great this sand color is and it brings me back to the funeral director episode with Nick Foulkes poking fun about Kirby celebrating the brown/grey color
KIRBS....You look nervous about the suit neck!!! It looks great buddy, wear it proud mate....
The look,cut,long jacket and long centre vent is almost pure 1960`s,my suits were that style but with two button fastening.From 16 to 21 I didn`t have an off the peg suit because they didn`t make them that way.
amazing
KIrby, you've inspired me to go get my first(ish) nice suit. While it's not tailor-made, it is a
dark grey Ted Baker that I'm going to have altered, too fingers crossed a perfect fit.
My small collection of Ted Baker clothing always draws attention and compliments. I hope that you're enjoying your new suit!
Yesss!!!
Loved Terry being BASED on electric cars at 18:30
“Drop your linen, and start your grinnin!”
you're gonna end up with 10 suits a year at this pace :)
Love a three button jacket because like this.
Looking great man - best dressed American Out there
Suyamba, that was great, you said, it’s too much for me.” 😊
It would be nice if you met up with John Kent at some point just to see how he is doing.
Happy Retirement John.
I dig the hat.
Gotta get a podcast scheduled with John, Kirby.
I’ll move there for that.
Suyamba, “can’t afford my pins, is that it.” 😊
I can see bro is still fighting to bring braces back. Keep up the good work though nothing can take me away from belts 😊
Nice 👍👍
Hey Kirby, have you done any videos on high quality sunglasses?
Woooo first comment!! Lol
I loved my tan linen suit, it stopped fitting me but I can’t wait to get another, this time in blue.
Road to 1 million subscribers
Looks like an amazing place to work at. Kinda sad it's a difficult craft to get into. Not a lot of tailors left
Suyamba, “three musketeers.”😊
i rewatched the first few min for 30 min.
I think that color should be called Sonora. Who else has a suggestion?
Nice suit, could wear it to a cricket match
The light is fantastic....just look at your own video
👍👍💯
Similar to Kirby, i emphasize on the quality of the shirt. I invest on great quality fabrics, on highest quality natural materials such as silk, cotton, linen, cashmere, and so on. These shirts are not cheap, ranging from 700 USD for cotton to 1.5K USD for silk.
Also, I buy from ultra luxury brands such as Stefano Ricci and Zilli, and the makers of those brands' luxury clothing.
Let John enjoy his life
He worked hard enough
Dont be sad
Be happy a working class man made it
Hi Kirby! Make an interview with John!
Hi Kirby, when will you be uploading the Cuba trip video ?
Kirby u should just commission clothes at terry. Man these garments are second to nine😂
Maybe when he is well an interview with John telling his story would be nice.
Buffalo Bill approves of the skin suit 😂😂😂
1:00 1:30 I didn’t know you had all that Suyamba
The lapel height is a bit too Edwardian in my opinion. Then again, I know how Kirby sometimes likes to err on the anachronistic.
Damn that's depressing. Was hoping to get something made by John.
Kirby, I think you are going to move to London very soon.
Then he might show what it’s actually like to live here.
Kirby i have a question for you...well i have been watching and following almost all of your youtube shows alongwith Sartorial talks...Now when it came to recommending Sahakian to Bespoke...why did you prefer Henry Poole to Kent,Haste and Lachter...I thought you had great chemistry with John and others....and in fact i found these episodes of kent haste and lachter more informative and interesting....Your thoughts please mate
John, you deserved the rest. Just keep your cheeky humour.
The jacket looks really nice but I just can't go with such large pants (both the linen as aswell as the bird's eye in the beginning of the video. I need pants on the slim side.
I don’t see it myself
Macclesfield silk ties?
Guy admits her work...finally She should start to be a great part of this business
Hey Kirby
I used to wear braces when I was younger and I couldn't stand the brace button holes tearing. I suppose that can't be helped other than using a very sturdy leather. It could also be I was just buying cheap braces.😂
I was a fan of Kirby Allison until I heard him say experience the zenith of bespoke.
