Honestly, I think if someone buys it in another color, nobody would think twice about if it was Burberry or a regular scarf But, I think if you own a Burberry trench, the scarf just looks really classic with it & I will never dislike that combo. The colors perfectly match a camel coat for a reason

In the other colourways the proportions of the check pattern are the same, it's still very recognisable to people who like heritage or luxury clothing. I guess for the wider public they only would notice the classic colourways but they'd probably associate it with chavs

Hopefully, someday I can afford your wares. I'm just not to that tax bracket yet. Your products are really beautiful, and thank you for teaching me how to dress well.

I have to say Raphael, your videos are extremely well researched; it is obvious a great deal of time and effort go into your productions. I have learned a great deal from you over the last two years about Men's Fashion, History of Clothie ie. Seersucker, and how to properly wear a Cumberbun. I discovered your online presence one Saturday morning while searching out how to properly wear a Polo shirt. This lead to my viewing most all of your videos, which opened up for me, a whole world in updating my wardrobe and properly dressing. I very much appreciate all I have learned from you and I know, you are definitely leaving your mark upon this world. For this I am most grateful.

Incredibly informative. Thank you for this information. I’ve had my vintage Burberry “muffler” scarf from 1999. And I still wear it every season. Have never needed to change it, as it is still with me, never an issue. However it does smell it’s age. Even after dry cleaning. Mostly just stagnant, or dusty. It is still the best piece of clothing I have ever purchased. Would like to get the large Burberry Check scarf. Charcoal grey with red pop for contrast

I very much appreciate this channel and the wealth of information you provide. Good, reliable info.

I remember this scarf from that old scarf video on the channel. Still was great to watch. I woul like to see Is it worth it Hermes and LV belts.

Very impressive display of industry knowledge! This will be known as the chimney video. There is just noone on the internet who does anything near SRS. A big thank you to the master. I bow to thee.

Give me a traditional or modern Irish tartan instead.

We were having a talk at work today about the difference between good products and products that are host expensive and bought as a status symbol. I recommended my coworkers check out this channel to see the difference between the two.

8 years ago I bought the last and only luxury scarf I have left: a natural gray/forest italian cashmere from the venerable Brunello Cucinelli. It’s still awesome to this very day. I picked it up from a Cucinelli Outlet store for $180, a bargain IMHO

I looked into that Johnstons of Elgin company, and it's not often that im truly impressed by solid jewel colors but their basic cashmere scarf options at $215 are actually incredible to the point where im having trouble deciding what to go for.

Nah, but all your videos are dope.

That was some great sleuthing finding out where the scarf was made! A very interesting video. I agree with the problem of the length of the Burberry scarf! Very few scarves are that short and limiting. It's almost as if they are cheaping out on the length just because their brand name is iconic and people will pay the big price for the name. No matter how useless the scarf will become.

Sorry, Burberry, but I’m not paying $470 for a 65” scarf. Kidding, I’m not paying $470 for any scarf 😂😂😂

@@stevenabosh8807 A scarf retains a practical use and will likely continue to do so in cold weather. Not every jacket does the job well because it might not have a high enough "collar" that extends around your neck. For those jackets that simply don't, you use a scarf. I reckon in some or many situations, a scarf is a better complementary option because having that bigger collar on jackets could be annoying or hindering at times. What if it gets somewhat warmer depending on the environment? A scarf, you can then take off. Also, I reckon some do not wear jackets but coats or such instead. And I don't recall coats with a huge standard high collar that would then do the job well functionally - while it might look off in a fashion or style sense. As we can see with both examples, a scarf is useful.

Great video. I might buy a Fort Belvedere Cashmere scarf for myself. Keep it up with the quality+value etc.

Do you think that a classic Burberry polo would be a good investment? I got $500 in Christmas money, so do you have any suggestions in Burberry wear? Also, do you think I should save up for a trench coat instead?🧥🧥

Johnstone actually also produces excellent scarves themselves, I have had some of their cashmere items, they’re really good and significantly cheaper.

funny enough.. my best scarf, quality wise, is from Levis.. burgundy, lambswool. serves me since five years. and I also own one from Burberry..

This is the kind of thing I would totally get at thrift store price, but otherwise it just seems like nothing other than a "yes, I have tons of money" statement piece, like with the Louis Vuitton bag. There's a kind of store here called "European clothing" which is basically 2nd hand/off-season clothing from abroad and I've actually got a couple of excellent pieces, once with a Belstaff for $5 and a second time with a Burberry women's coat for$25. It was my first time even seeing the brands, and for both, I was actually baffled at the retail cost once I looked them up.

vicuna scarves. are they worth it, Sven? please review!

I always thought loro piana produced their cashmere somewhere in the middle east because of the dunes you always see on their homepage, but turns out it's in china and mongolia aswell. Guess raphael was right once again

I am looking at buying a burberry cap. Is the quality worth it or is it just for the brand? I heard gucci caps are very bad and cheap in terms of material so i wanted to know about burberry

Double Ralph Lauren is it worth it

Please consider checking whether Derek Rose dressing gowns are worth it.

Top tip - the check Burberry scarves are made by Johnstons. Johnstons sell direct. UK price of a scarf? £115, compared to £370 for the Burberry. Okay, you can't get the "Burberry check", but the Johnstons scarves have the advantage that they don't suffer from the "Burberry image issue", a.k.a "The Chav Effect".

My favourite make of scarf is aquascutum brand in its classic house check. This is available in wool or cashmere. Purchased the cashmere one for my girlfriend and see loves it.

Yes. I just think that classic style marks should remain in their branch and street wear designers/marks should make their thing. Maybe in some cases, the combination of those two views on style can make something interesting looking. But I would say this doesn’t happen very often and neither classic style nor street wear marks should sacrifice their main products to look “younger” or more “elegant and classic”.

A good thing from Burberry is when their suits are on sale. Half or full canvas super 130 for around $800-$900 when it's original 2.2k is a good deal

People who made their opinion about Burberry by what they see on the site should visit a store, still an experience in itself. Also the quality is second to none of you ask me. I have the oversize check archive beige longer version of the scarf in cashmere and i absolutely love it on colder days.

Playing Arc yeah, the lack of disclosure is a little troubling.

I chose the route of variety rather than quality in this case. I have various colors and fabrics depending on color matching or practicality. Some scarves will have a synthetic blend which hold up better to abuse (spilled drinks, runny nose etc..) while others can be matched with my other garments. I have alpaca, cashmere and merino wool scarves. Trust me, I do have champagne taste but I have a finite budget. And in this case I put it towards shoes, sport coats, shirts, vests, suspenders and pocket squares.

Great video. Definitely not worth it for me. Very interesting seeing this thorough research!

Or you can go to the Johnstons of Elgin website and buy a scarf directly from them. For half the price.
