It's the Gentleman's Gazette 10th year anniversary and join us as we celebrate this milestone by answering frequently asked questions from our viewers!
We are beyond grateful for your support and we will continue to produce high quality videos for all of you! Looking forward to sharing them all with you.
Thank you for being with us in this journey! Cheers to another 10 years!! - Jak na to + styl
I agree, the name Gentleman's Gazette is probably a better choice than The Boutonniere Boys.
The Full Dress Dudes! :D
Boutonniere boys must be made as a 2nd channel
thats their crime fighting name 😉
I truly love the channel you guys are awesome and knowledgeable. I binge watch all the time and learn so much. I trust you guys. Keep up the good work. Primo
The Boutonniere Boys for the under-18 crowd could be lovely.
You guys are the coolest nerds on CZcams. Keep up the good work!
Congratulations on 10 amazing years!
Thank you Preston!
@@gentlemansgazette You would find this interesting. Arrow Shirts was part of the larger company Cluett Peabody. In the late 1980's my Grandfather Patrick A. Hidalgo became the CFO for Cluett Peabodys international division and also the CEO of Arrow Shirts. He left both positions after a number of years in search of a new job, so it makes me smile to think that one of my favorite (all my others are history) CZcams channels and stores co-opted that logo for themselves.
Cheers to 11 years and many more
In case you're wondering why Preston sounds so much clearer: as we set up to film, my microphone cable got stuck on a door handle and the cable was ripped out of the transmitter! So, I had to use a different mic. One more thing to look back on in another 10 years! :)

Raphael, Preston, Team of the Gentleman's Gazette, congratulations. Unfortunately I wasn't with you from the beginning, but I really value your work. Thanks for the good work and good luck into the next decade!
No, Preston was always clear in tone, I am actually wondering why Kyle isn't in the video?!
Also, looking sharp, my good friends, Preston and Sven!
It weirdly reminded me of your first videos
@@JoJo-xp6wr Kyle works for us part time, and there was a scheduling conflict...
I learned on how to wear a suit, get it bespoke and more as well as became passioned about taking care of my style with the GG. Even though I’m a metalhead and have lots of metal t-shirts, boots and jeans I managed to up my game in taking care of the details. So thanks to all the GG team and happy anniversary!
Gentlman's Gazette,
I'm a long time fan. I grew up with this channel, learned to shave with this channel, and now, as an adult, still watch your content daily. Congratulations on a great ten years. It's an honor to finally comment with a specific question for your team.
I've been wanting a pair of traditional balmoral boots for a very long time, but am not yet in a position where investing in a pair of Crockett & Jones is financially appropriate. I recently stumbled across a company online called Beckett and Simonon. They have a rather unique business model, that allows them to offer a properly stitched shoe at a very affordable price. I would love any thoughts you guys have.
Sincere thanks from a Loyal Fan and Congratulations Once More
Elliott Mallin
Beckett Simonon makes a good product at a great price. I have a pair of their Dean Oxfords and they are certainly a well-made shoe. Are they the best of the best? No, but for the price, they are an excellent value.
Also, my experience with their customer service team was excellent. They provide personal follow-up to ensure you are happy. Buy with confidence.
Raphael's smile always intrigued me, because I thought he was either having a joke on us, or that he had a secret he was just about to spill, or maybe he would not ever! Eventually, I realized it is his personality, and he did have tons of incredible information to share with us over the years. My bow tie for my tuxedo came from Ft. Belvedere and I always appreciate the videos from your channel. Congratulations on 10 years!
This channel, along with RMRS, is the reason I’ve been so successful in my job.
I’m a wardrobe consultant at Jos A Bank and had 0 style experience before starting (I didn’t even own a suit).
Now I’ve helped dozens or maybe even hundreds of men get classically inspired wardrobes (and made some good money along the way).
I think you should do some lectures at schools - for young boys - teaching them as they embark out into the world. Also, just fyi, men's clothing is typically much better made than women's clothing. I did wear a suit that my mother wore when she was about 25 years old, then I owned it and wore it when I was 25-35. Beautiful suit! Thanks guys!
Congratulations on 10 years! Mr. Sven Raphael Schneider, Although I just discovered your channel and I'm a woman, I love this channel and learn something wonderful with each video, I think Preston & Kyle are terrific additions! I love a classically well dressed men & etiquette, I can't get enough of this channel, I say all that to say Thank you for being here and onwards to the next exciting 10 years of The Gentlemen's Gazette! ❤
I'd sub to Ladies' Gazette if someone makes it and does it well. :)
Yes
Spin off channel made by his wife? 👀
I would LOVE that!!!
Try Alyssa Beltempo or Audrey Coyne. Or Sartorial Talks
@@lisbetsoda4874 thx queen
could you do a video on gentlemen's lounge wear? you've mentioned dressing gowns before but a whole video would be great! i want to swap out my sweatpants for something better for around the house - sleepwear would be good as well
Wow both the dinner jackets look awesome ^_^
Thanks for returning elegance to men's wear!!!!
GG is one of the first menswear channel I've found when I was starting out on my style journey last June. I wish y'all the best and for more anniversaries!!
Herzliche Glückwünsche zum 10jährigen Jubiläum aus Deutschland! Ich verfolge die Entwicklung von Gentleman’s Gazette seit Jahren mit Begeisterung. Der Kanal ist fester Bestandteil meines Lebens geworden, zumal Sven-Raphael und ich das eine oder andere gemeinsam haben: Jurastudium, Bernhard Roetzels großartiges Buch als Beginn der intensiven Beschäftigung mit klassischer Herrenmode, deutsche Wurzeln ... das macht das Vergnügen nur größer, euch zuzusehen. Alles Gute und weiterhin viel Erfolg - ich bin gespannt auf alle zukünftigen Ideen und Entwicklungen!
Danke Oliver!
I've been watching for 2-3 years and just found out today GG was from MN. So cool to see that and I'm now even more proud as a fellow Minnesotan.
I think this is the best channel on youtube that talks about gentlemanly things. Thank you for making such good and quality videos.
I’d love to be part of the Gentlemen’s Gazette
Had I any power, I would advocate for these men to be cast among the concierge of the Continental in the next John Wick installment. Given their commitment to etiquette and dedication to all things dapper, its a perfect fit
Happy anniversary congratulations for successful career gent's

Watching the two of you guys, I get that feeling like I’m either back in my grandmas parlor, or in the lobby of the hotel from “The Shinning”
I would absolutely love to hear Preston sing! I'd really like to sing a couple of tunes with him, too!
Last comment from me - You guys are artists.
Cheers Gentleman, and thank you for all that you do. I'd say this channel has both taught and inspired me more than any other. I am a better and more gentlemanly man for it, not just in how I dress, but in all aspects of manhood.
I look at other men's wear channels as appetizers, while the Gentleman's Gazette is the main course. I wish you many, many more years of success.
I would hate for it to go away too. Congratulations on your 10 years. Preston, do you know of the Anita Kerr singers,and Francis Faye? Thanks.
I love that at the end Raphael said: IF I die, rather than when
I am a new sub. I only started following this channel a few months ago. I am graduating from college in April...and I definitely owe you guys one for helping mold me into a bonafide adult! I lost the backpack and now rock a nice leather briefcase/messenger bag. Last week I got into an accident and I was the most stylists gentlemen at the collision reporting center while debuting an ascot as part of my 'business casual, sporty look". Thank you, Gentleman's Gazette. Happy Anniversary. 🍾
Preston needs a spinoff channel. There's more going on with him than we know.
Stay tuned! ;)
- Preston
I had no idea Preston was a singer, and I just watched the video where he performs"I left my heart in San Fransisco", and the result is: I agree with your comment.
@@mr.s.7081 where's the video?
Thanks for this celebration GG 👍
Longtime subscriber, but very rarely do I comment. Congrats on 10 years.
Congratulations on 10 years & here's to many more🥃
I love that you space your videos out so that its not a chore to watch them every day. I know algorithms love daily videos, but quality will be compromised. I prefer longer videos with more information and elaboration. Also, I feel that some collaboration with shoe care and restoration experts like the Elegant Oxford and Kirby Allison would be a blast.
If you're ever in Malaysia, please do let me know! I'd love to meet up and chat about menswear, as the community here in Malaysia is very limited, which makes me super lonely in this regard.
Thanks for the kind words. I'll be doing something with Preston Soto sometime for sure, but we will not do a collaboration with Kirby Allison based on bad past experiences.
@@gentlemansgazette Ah, I see. Shoes are kind of my thing now, and these are the two channels that I love. Robert Powers is another small CZcamsr who's really good at what he does. You can check him out!
Love you guys! Thank you for implicitly fixing my wardrobe!
your channel has helped me so much thank you
Frankly, there's some good life lessons in here for young adults, like college students about to graduate or people new to the workforce after school. Thank you.
Thanks for 10 years gentlemen and cheers to the future! Cheers🥂
10 years. Well done. You both have a great attitude, very positive with some important lessons to share.
I’m an old rough cut truck driver but thanks to GG I have learned how to act like a gentleman and how to wear the right clothes from tying a bow tie to the right socks to wear.
I surprise my wife constantly and she is no longer ashamed of me when we go to places.
Thanks for your channel
Cheers to ten years, I approve of everything that you do for us to become better men and be more dapper.
Thank you so much guys. I have been watching your videos for a few months now. I don't have a lot of spare money to spend on clothes but have been following your advice as much as possible. Yesterday a young, very trendy guy from the office asked me in all seriousness if I had been using a personal stylist because I had been dressing so much better recently!
Happy anyversary! My favourite You Tube channel. May you work another hundred years! Best wishes! Is there going to be a live session of QnA?
Congratulations on your huge success! I look forward very much to watching your videos for next ten years. Best wishes from London.
Thanks guys for 10 years. Best channel on CZcams.
Congratulations.
Greetings from Slovenia.😁
It was such a pleasure to hear about Preston's passion for music. As a producer myself, I understand its influence
Congratulations on ten years! Love the jazzy intro. It captures your channel personality well.
This is one of my favorite gentleman’s gazette video. Keep them coming, gents.
Btw, your production quality is honestly better than almost all of the other man style CZcams channels. Don’t tell Antonio though, he’ll kick me out of the Dapper Dog Club🥺
Congratulations on the Gentleman’s Gazette 10th anniversary Sven.
Congratulations Guys! Cheers!!
Hahaha love the sense of humour in the video, entertaining as always!
I'd love to see a video on the proper way to roll up one's sleeves. Apparently the the ladies love this universally.
That was great, guys! Thanks!
Excellent video 👏🏻 I really like the format/style with Preston asking the questions.
I look forward to being able to buy Fort Belvedere here in the UK. And I believe for "fan meet ups" - a workshop style format could work very well! Please let me know if you plan on visiting Oxford anytime soon! 🙏🏻
Thanks for all the honesty; that primarily is why I watch.
Congratulations on your 10 years Everyone!!!!
Wish I had gotten the chance to watch it the day of.
Congratulations on the big milestone! Onwards and upwards from here!
I live in the south metro, and I am somewhat shocked we haven't crossed paths yet.
Amazing! Congrats for everything love the brand!
Congrats on ten years!
Prestons outfit is amazing
Both look amazing!
Congratulations gents!! I've learned a lot from you all, thank you!!
Great Channel, keep up the good work!
Congratulations. Here's to many more years, Gentlemen!

You guys look great, and this video was really fun. :)
Congratulations. I love the videos and content you folks bring! Keep up the good work!
I absolutely love your channel. I have a fondness for vintage gentleman’s clothing, style and design. The 1930’s is my favorite period.
I wish you gentlemen continued success.
Congratulations on the anniversary! A job well done gentlemen. Many more years to come, God Bless you and yours.
I had no idea you were in Minnesota. Me too! Happy 10th anniversary.
Congrats on the anniversary! The channel has been a huge help to me, so here's to another ten years and beyond!

Thank you for making me a better man
Cheers for the 10 Year Anniversary!
Cheers for another 10!
And many thanks for making us better and more presentable gentleman everyday!
You could have a annual "weekend" at some old-world places like Mackinac Island, Newport, Tuxedo Park, Mohonk Mountain House, Chateau Frontenac, etc. Or sell a group transatlantic crossing on the Queen Mary 2. Actually, being on a ocean liner would be more fun with a built-in "friends group".
Wonderful picture from your wedding! Wunderbar
Congratulations to all your team and to you Raphaël, I can't wait to see what you will achieve during the next decade of Gentleman's Gazette !
Congratulations on 10 years. I've been watching your videos for just over a year now and it's been a life changing journey! 🥂
Cheers from Mexico! it has been a fantastic journey over this time. I really appreciate all the efforts on the quality content that has been delivered. Thank you!
Really thankful for you guys and the videos. Just had my second bespoke jacket commissioned and its really thanks to you guys.
Keep those video's coming!.. they really made me more "style concious",
I love the channel, I’ve been watching from day one and keep it classy gentlemen
You guys are great! Helpful to a lot of people, I'm sure. And humble. A flippin' decade? Congrats!
Congrats and thanks for the memories...
