Daniel is far from ordinary! I had the pleasure of meeting him about four years ago in Chicago. I was at a wedding and none of the guys in the party knew how to tie their bowties. Daniel George had created all the tuxedo’s for the wedding party. It was a Sunday and his office was closed but the service got in touch with him apparently en route to brunch. He postponed his brunch plans and arrived in front of the hotel in his Rolls-Royce with a buddy and the two tied all of our bowties and gallantly drove off. We still talk about it to this day. The humor and kindness was over the top. It was a real superhero moment!

There’s about 500 KZread videos on how to tie a bow tie, but a bunch of grown men have to call a dude to come do it for them? 😅

When I reach my target weight of 180 pounds, currently 188. I'm celebrating with a custom made suit. It's been a long hard journey but the finish line is tantalisingly close, as coming up 9 years ago I was over 300 pounds. So not far to go.

I was 18 when my dad took me to Baskin's in Chicago to get measured for two suits. That was back in 1988. This bought back those memories.

Mr. George impressed me completely. He knows his work in and out to include materials and sizing. I never had a suit tailored from top to bottom so I can imagine how much detailing is required to ensure the suit is fitted to perfection.

I’m astounded by the amount of knowledge and thankful that Daniel can communicate it with professionalism. He is confident without being off-putting. I appreciate how he works to build a lifelong relationship with his customer.

Love this. Love the attention to detail, the personal touches, the gleaning of your taste and preferences, the ease of it and the fact that, in no instance, did you appear rushed. That's the way it should be. Kudos to Mr. George, and thanks for posting this!

I was one of those guys who got his first bespoke suit from Daniel when he made the tux for my wedding. It changed my perspective on formalwear forever. Fewer pieces of higher quality is my mantra now. While the initial investment is higher (comparatively), you'll more than get that value back over time. You just wear a suit made for you differently than you would one off-the-rack. And, while he's clearly up on trends, he also does an amazing job at explaining the rules that stay evergreen. Daniel makes you feel like a VIP when you walk in. I promise you, he didn't turn the charm on for the camera. Working with Daniel, and the top-notch service of his team, is part of the experience. When I do plan on adding more staples to my formal wardrobe, they will be made by Daniel.

Totally awesome…. Daniel rocks and he knows exactly what he is looking for into what he is going to portray upon his tailoring… he is also a man of details not just names. You can say passionate for sure… you can say fun… but very … very serious on his craft.

His demeanour commands respect. Also has a great sense of humor and you can really trust him. If I could afford bespoke suit, I would want for him to take care of it.

Mind-blowing! I just watched the second part. The whole process - I love how Daniel and/or his colleagues are with you from start to finish and are open to suggestions! That’s A+ quality customer service!

This process is so comprehensive, from the detailed measuring, fabric and lining selections, cap shoulders, functioning buttons, pockets, thick cuffs in the slacks, and the classic British aesthetic! Simply amazing! Daniel and his staff are to be commended for excellent service! I’m blown away!

Both Part 1 and Part 2 of this series were extremely educational. I do not have a normal physique and when I purchase new clothing I know that they don't fit quite right. I have not known before what to look for and what to ask for in changes to make things fit correctly. Now I know a lot more about the topic and have a better chance of being able to ask for the correct changes. I truly appreciate the knowledge learned here in these two videos. I am alreading thinking about taking a trip to San Francisco to visit this tailor. Thank you!

Amazing service and quality from Daniel and his team

Bought my wedding suit through Daniel. It was an absolute pleasure working with him and the suit came out better than I could’ve dreamed. Hoping I get the opportunity of buying another suit through him in the future.

Daniel George!! Your menswear shop is fantastic!! Your knowledge and style of suiting blows me away. When I do visit San Francisco I will most certainly stop b your shop.

Love the attention to detail. And I agree that sheen is largely underrated. Great suits, and what a pro.

At the age of 24, my dad took me to his Italian tailor. Throughout my life, (I'm 63) I've only had made-to-measure suits... pants with cuffs, working buttons on the sleeves (aka surgeon cuffs), side vents and padded shoulders to offset my small build. Custom suits are expensive but they make you feel like a million bucks. And, all my suits were made by tradespeople in Montréal... no offshore work... fabric almost exclusively from England but sometimes, Italian. Very nice video although for a first made-to-measure suit, I might have gone with a polyvalent dark blue.

Wow. I found this video because I’m a bike fitter (yes, bike fitting is a thing), and the most common comparison is getting a custom suit made. Everyone nods their head in understanding and agreement at that, assuming that everyone knows what it’s like. To say I’m not stylish is a huge understatement, I know nothing about having a custom suit made. The references to others in the fashion world went right over my head - to be expected. Then you got into the measuring bit and I was blown away. Asymmetry is a huge deal in bike fitting because you’re interfacing the human body to a symmetric machine. I’ve been bike fitting for 25 years, when I watch someone walk down the street I can guess at their injury history based on how they walk - I so wish I could turn that off. I’ve never considered how the suit falls on the shoulder or how buttons line up as a result of asymmetry. I am truly impressed by what I see.

Just realized I'd only given a thumbs up but no comment. This cat is interesting (entertaining the least). The detailed measurements though - wow! His passion really comes through in everything.

The cost is much more however you are getting top notch service and quality plus you actually get to pick out how you want it customized in every detail which is awesome. Men's wear like this will last you a very longtime own a few of them myself as well even just customized sport jackets from my favorite mens wear store locally where I live that are awesome to deal with. It's a personal one on one experience that you really appreciate and for many men once you've done it this way,myself included you'll continue doing it this way.

I only own a made to mesure navy suit that I paid under 800, and some supports jackets. This was fascinating. It's like building the man from the ground up. It must be a matter of your trust in his professionalism, attenrion to detail, and experience vs. his reputation and how in the future he will be at the top of a short list the next time you need buy even a cravat or weather you are buying a tuxedo for your wedding.

When you wear a well fitting suit in a color that best "suits" you, others will react to you differently.
