Immediately like jack. I would love to see more of him on the channel
Me too.
Yes👍👍plz do more videos Jack👍👍
I got to meet him!
Mr. Jack Collins: Sartorial Icon. Need to see more of this fine gentleman. Great video. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Jack is great and I really appreciated that he happily buys and wears second-hand, me too!
Refreshing new format for the channel. More videos like this please!
"is this pre-tied?!!" The horror in his voice ha
😂
It’s incredible that he finds unique and interesting pieces that aren’t bespoke! I think we can all develop our eye for pieces that work for us! 🎩
Would be nice to see Jack more! Nice video, keep going!
I love Jack’s demeanor! What gents these two 🔥
Fun video! I like the format. Please make more videos where you walk thru each of the gg members closets. It’s always fun to see what other people have in their wardrobes. Like the videos you already have when you showcase your for example cufflink collection, and the video showing Prestons wardrobe. I bet he has much more clothes now since you made that video.
More to come!
Brilliant packing Jack! Wish packing was as easy for us women! Love your watch too! Looks vintage
It's definitely a refreshing format. I can see that it could be challenging to pack for air travel. Don't want to over or under pack. Looks like basic essentials.
This was air travel
@gentlemansgazette I liked those boots Jack has from Crockett and Jones, so I went to their website to check them out, and I was thinking the price should be 500 to 600 dollars boy was I wrong 1,400 dollars. They are nice, though.
Inflation is real😢
@@user-su2pg4lq3xMe too! I thought the Balmorals Rapheal features in some of his videos (grey/navy I believe) looked awesome, so I looked into them. WAY out of my price league - but they look great.
Was glued to this one- bring back Jack!
Jack is great, loved his confidence on the fashion pieces, would love to see some more of this type of content. Great video
Really like this longer format style with lots of info to absorb
Great episode and I love Jack, he is the ultimate in class and refinement and his style rings all my bells. Cheers Gents!
Really loved how in-detail you go in this video!
I can echo Raphael's point on loafers. I'm also one of those people who has a very hard time fitting loafers. Might get a bespoke pair one day, but until then monkstraps are the more practical casual option for people like us.
Thanks for another great video and for sharing your knowledge
Greetings from México City
great video love the tips and an awesome chemistry between both... can not wait for the development of the trip. kudos
Some rather "interessting" choices, but so is most of what I've seen of Pitti over the years. Love the corduroy suit (just had a dark brown sports coat made to measure and contemplating an olive green three piece right now), but somehow the colors on my screen must be off - it looks rather brownish with a tint of green (the classic "muddy brown" color often seen in corduroy pieces from the 70s) than grey. Anyway, it looks fantastic and I bet it wears like a dream.
This wasn't a studio environment so the lights don't have a great CRI. But considering that we just shot this were we were, I think you can see enough
This channel really feels in the gaps of wardrobe and style knowledge game🤔😌🍻👍keep up the great work 🖖
Much appreciated!
I always enjoy your content
This was perfect! I loved it 😊
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Thanks for finally introducing us to Jack.
We did a video with him before, you can see it here: www.gentlemansgazette.com/things-gg-team-regrets-buying/?
I liked that Jack has a polyester tie. It means that style is more important then plain motos from Gentelmen's Gazette :)
You can definitely rock the pink. Own it. 👍🏻
Very informative 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Grande Jack, well done! 👏
I’ve done a ton of business travel over the years, both CONUS and OCONUS. To Sven Raphael’s point, I agree that one should wear a pair of shoes they’ll use on the trip. To Jack’s point, comfort is important. I usually wear my exercise shoes on the plane. They meet both conditions.
I love your channel
I need to get there someday too
Interesting video, Indeed!
Enthusiast sounds better than influencer
" Been There, done That, amen."
Nice to see Jack again, but why does Raphael have to skip over the classic Casio Jack was about to talk about?
probably 'cause it's the _tasteless_ chrome version. 😼
Honestly, the conversation just kept on flowing! We've spoken about it before, though: www.gentlemansgazette.com/timeless-or-trend-digital-watches/?
Great video! Question: what would you use to carry all of that stuff in?
One checked case, one carry-on case, and the tote bag for me! Shirts, underwear, socks, and accessories (valuables) go in the carry-on that I always keep with me, larger items go in checked luggage. I'll also keep my small wash kit of essentials in my tote bag as some airports require this to be separate on security checks. My luggage isn't anything special! I travel with two simple pieces (non-matching) I bought at a TK Maxx (or TJ Maxx). I love Globe-trotter cases, but for international travel I choose practicality every time. Jack
i just scratched my glasses- i think knocking them over when half-asleep. at night keep your glasses in the case!!
the magnetic flat-foldable cases like the ones from Lindberg or Silhouette are very nice for traveling as when not in use they don't use much space and are quite protective since they're rigid. you could probably get some from your favorite leather shop too. 😉
A good tip! I make sure I keep mine folded (arms down) on a flat surface away from the bed. Even if I were to nudge the case with my glasses in off the bedside table, I'd be worried they'd be damaged inside the case during the fall! Jack
@@gentlemansgazette but don't you also put miscellaneous items like cufflinks inside? 🤔
@@kittytrail Not at the same time - I wear my glasses non-stop, so only take them off to bathe & sleep. I rarely use a glasses case for its intended purpose, other than to house a spare pair. Jack
I know this is kinda unrelated to the video but, i would love to see how the gentleman gazette would review the Askokey suit.
What are your thoughts on the AskOkey style?
Personaly i love the Ask okey drape cut. It puts savile row to shame. @@gentlemansgazette
@@gentlemansgazette I find it very elegant and unique but it would definitely be interesting to hear you guys opinion on it
Cheers from Brazil
Do the American terms (sweater, grocery store, suspenders etc) come naturually to you Jack?
Curious that you choose to use those words.
the language of the monoculture is american slang but with glotteral stops like londoners
Hi Matthew - as I've been writing for GG since 2020, and our audience is largely based in the USA, I find it easy to switch between terms and spellings nowadays 🙂 Jack
@@gentlemansgazettefair enough, I figured that was the case. I'm sure they appreciate the effort
@@gentlemansgazette You do a great job. You said "I paid about 10 pounds or, 20 "bucks". That was perfect!
can you make a video on how to create a signature
Please have Mr Collins on again
That cummerbund is supposed to be “one size fits call due to elastic” according to your website. It was too large for me too, and I had to have a tailor alter it.
While we call this particular cummerbund model adjustable, we don't say it's one size fits all. As Raphael mentioned in the video, this particular iteration of the cummerbund is cut a little larger, as it would be impossible to have one cummerbund model that flattered everyone from a 28" waist up to a 40" waist. That being said, there are other options for smaller waists on the website, and it's great to hear your tailor was able to alter yours - as Jack will do to his 🙂
Jack: I believe I have an overcoat very similar to yours (the close up of the weave looks identical). It's a Hepworths too quite old, maybe 1950s, but with different buttons.
Q. will I see you, Jack, a the London Show Trunk Show this year?
Cheers
Tony
How lovely! The overcoat was definitely worth it for me. I certainly hope to be at the Super Trunk in May! Jack
Great news; I'll say 'Hi'. Best Tony@@gentlemansgazette
where is jack from in england?
East of England - Norfolk is the county
A quick tip to this wonderful sartorial community: Iron your shirts before packing and wrap them in tissue paper prior to putting them in your suitcase.
I know this works from personal experience, even linen shirts. I learned this from Diana Vreeland who would wrap all her clothes in tissue paper prior to travelling.
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
@@gentlemansgazetteMy pleasure and thank you for such fantastic content.
Been trying to get ahold of you gents about a pair of lamb nappa gloves I purchased that immediately split when I put one on. Cannot get through on the number listed on the website or seemingly via multiple emails to the support email address.
When did you call, we have someone taking calls during business hours and we definitely reply to emails. What's your order number? We'll reach out and make it right. Most Gloves do not rip bit since it is a Natural material every once in a while a skin rips. We just take care of it for you.
Somehow this channel went over the years from style to grandpa look.
Get in a room of men over 70. None are dressed like this anymore.
Raphael zeigt, wie auch ein Mann mit etwas Bauch sich perfekt kleiden kann.
Would you make a video of how people with big muscles could use a suit, it just doesnt look good :(
👍
I'm guessing that GG pays well if Jack can afford all those expensive garments
The garments may be expensive but not many of them and I personally like that the team of Gentlemen's Gazette practice what they preach with quality over quantity while not being brand snobs.
I've been collecting and curating my wardrobe for years, but there's a mixture of things going on here that explains how I got my wardrobe (as seen in this video): I have A LOT of patience when it comes to buying clothes. I tend not to be too impulsive, which means I can factor affordability into things. This is especially helpful regarding sales periods - if I can score a piece I've had my eye on at a discount, then I'll make that purchase. Having a fondness for vintage shopping helps too, as you can bag some excellent pieces for much less than a new piece at retail. And as I've started buying bespoke, I've realised there are many viable options that are priced far better than well-known, "premium" options. If you can commission a bespoke suit for £2k instead of £5-10K, it's a lot easier to spread the payments and prioritise where your money goes.
Why does Rafael talk over Jack? He keeps butting in.
How many things are you signing (receipts etc) in 2024...?
Very fun video. But the altoids comment overrode what Jack was about to say about his silver casio watch!
Tis the nature of conversation! The Casio is a recent addition - I asked for it as a Christmas gift as it makes a lot of sense when traveling. As you can see, I love mechanical watches, but a digital watch is superb when you need reliability, accurate timekeeping, and especially if you don't want to risk losing or damaging a more valuable timepiece at the airport. Jack
@@gentlemansgazetteThanks for the nice reply Jack. The overview shot of the watches showed the Casio, and I was waiting for the comments on it. I saw you actually reach for it when Raphel mentioned the Altoids. I know it wasn't anything intentional on his part. I enjoyed the video very much - keep up the great work.
@@dandiehm8414 You're welcome - you probably recall our thoughts about the Casio in this video: www.gentlemansgazette.com/timeless-or-trend-digital-watches/?
I m from Omaha ne I never dress down all I wear jumpers and ocbd and polo shirt and suit and blazer and sport coat at it
Isn’t Jack Preston’s partner..?
Closer to twins at this point!
I like Jack's personality. He too slight of build for that jacket. Thinner lapels and single breasted would suit him so much better.
Thanks, Daniel - as Raphael mentioned in previous comments, the profile view isn't overly flattering! This suit from Natalino is lovely, it's a remarkably heavy cotton that's still softening as I wear it more, and I like the narrower buttoning point that I find difficult to achieve in a RTW DB jacket. While the lapels are a little dramatic, I agree that the collar is a touch wider than I'd ask for if I were commissioning something. But for an off-the-rack piece that was on discount, I'm perfectly happy with the suit. Jack
That is perhaps the least costumey Pitti wardrobe I’ve ever seen.
The peacocks get photographed because they're different, but the majority of the Pitti crowd actually dress very nicely: www.gentlemansgazette.com/pitti-uomo-105-overview/?
Yikes those boots need to be refinished.
A quick shine and they should look fine again
I have been following this channel since 2019 and it is really sad seeing how badly Raphael is aging.
I agree that profile view is not doing meany favors. Fortunately though I work out 4-5 times a week which is more than I have ever done before 😀
@edgarenriquez4692 This is a rude, ungentlemanly comment, as well as being untrue. Don’t mind the criticism, Raphael- keep doing your thing!
That "black opera pump" alluded to has always been way too feminine-looking for me. Not that my middle class, rough-around-the-edges life would have a use for them (although I like to attend symphny concerts and musicals) let alone an informed aesthetic opinion on them.
Those "between brown and red" shoes were edging on oxblood color.
I think this a great vid. But Im surprized at the weight gain going on here. Mind you. As a Dr. I’m always surprized.
I looked really fat in the profile view. Normally, it's not that bad. Like I said, I am working out more ND harder than I ever have before. Of the metabolism is slowing down and I like good food, but I really enjoy strength training...
Raphael reyiz göbek yapmışsın .
Rafael should be arrested for taking his shoes off on the plane! Nobody wants to smell your feet at 30000 feet!
Roberto Ugolini fragrances will make your feet smell great at all times, and they last longer than the flight 😉
Are you really flying transatlantic and not taking off your shoes? On shorter flights I do agree though.
