I started wearing double breasted suit after seeing the movie : "Gattaca". I wondered for awhile why people don't wear them. I have more double breasted suits than two buttoned suits because I get a lot of compliments wearing double breasted. They come with large peak lapels so you don't look like a worker bee wearing a uniform. I look more like their boss. I just bought one today that looks more modern with a shorter length. Due to the fact that most people wear two buttoned suits, double breasted suits are often on sale! 😁

Kirby that suit is amazing...you look so smart. Well done.

These guys are amazing, at their pricepoint why even go elsewhere for a suit?

Kirby well done, great video! And you look great in your new suit!

Great video! Love the details on the suit and the information provided troughout the video!

Joe is such a nice and talented gentlemen. He really nailed that fit on Kirby.

Truly amazing fit that flatters and even improves your shape. Very impressed.

Wow! Very impressed with the cut!

This is strategically amazing. The cut and finish is clean and professional. It is church worthy as well as interview classic. The width of the collar complements the knot of the tie and shape of drape.

Kirby, fantastic! By the way, the DB I am custodian of is my favorite suit, in part because the cut and extra layer feels great.

I love it! Slowly talking me into one Joe/Kirby.

This is my favorite kind of suit.

I always think how cool Letterman looked in those epic double breasted suits and blazers. Looking like a BOSS, Kirby!

Beautiful suit

❤️ you sir for your experience

Beautiful suit Kirby. May I ask whether you recommend applying Super Invulner to normal leather dress shoes for weather proofing?

Beautiful suit! I like the way you fold your pocket square. Is it linen? What brand is it? The problem I find with most pocket squares is that they are too large and stick out of the pocket too much. Yours looks perfect though.

You’re the man

Will go and get one from them

That suit looks beautiful on you Kirby. Welcome to the double breasted suit lovers world.

Looking good Kirby! I am meeting Devij in a couple of weeks. I have one double breasted by Ralph Lauren already, but was considering getting my second. Do you recommend getting a dbl breasted suit as a first suit from the Hemrajani guys? Thanks, Steve

Love the double breasted suit. Just bought one my self. Also dig the Albert Thurston Box cloth braces Your a class act

Am hoping Joe & Divij make their way to Houston in the near future. I’m ready for these gentlemen to create my first bespoke suit.

Hi kirby iv been watching you content for a long time now and i enjoy your videos very much. Can you suggest some good quality mens travel bags. I use samsonite cases for long trips but im looking for something for long weekends ideally leather thanks keep up the good work 👍

I am planning on getting a double breasted suit. That’s my goal right now. This style really looks so beautiful and I drool over them every time I see them

Real heroe

The appearance of the suit would be improved by a better choice of buttons. These look like plastic, but maybe it is the lighting. Unpolished horn buttons with a rim and shallow dish for the four holes are the classic Savile Row look and are very elegant. I don't know what the big deal is with DB suits. I I didn't think they were that rare, but this is probably both generational and geographical.

I used to have just one in the suit wardrobe. I liked it, but I never wanted more than just the one for some reason. My dad never wore a double-breasted. He thought it looks too much like George Raft. That thought sort of stuck with me as the double-breasted suit does look like you should have a hat. But as soon as you add a hat, then it looks like a costume. It's still a great style and the sign of an intelligent snappy dresser. As a practical matter, you really can't unbutton it for comfort unless you are at your desk.

Amazing suit, but let's talk about the braces. Are they Albert Thurston boxcloth? And are they leather or goatskin? One more question... can one wear white leather braces with either black or brown shoes? So many questions... Thanks, Steve

Ahhh! Finally we see the 'real' office at 0.42''

Kirby can you tell us whats the weight of the suit please?

So difficult to make and yet so good looking. I am a seamstress.

The double-breasted suit is the most formal garment in men's wear, though it can be paired with jeans, a casual colour will work with jeans

Historically speaking, I believe there is evidence to suggest that double breasted suits were actually less formal than their single breasted counterparts.

That is a damn good looking suit. Morrissey wore one made by these guys (namely the brown windowpane Vitale Barberis on his “the first of the gang to die” single.) I would also like to add this is Exhibit No. 1 of why you should focus on more American designers. This suit looks 100* better on you than any designed by those English twats you usually hang with. Consider that Moz could buy anywhere on Saville and he has repeatedly gone to Joe Hemrajani in LA. Also, why not consider matching this suit with Lucchese boots or another custom brand from Texas. This suit would kick ass with goatskin snip toe Lucchese. Excellent choice. A++

Kirby, I am interested in asking you a question. You can aford all these marvels of the bespoke world, so I want to know how can you aford it amd what made you pursue elegant life and bespoke clothing and shoes? Many salutes from across the Ocean, from Croatia (the land of the necktie).

How does one get an appointment with these guys? Their website and social media hasn’t been updated in two years, there’s no calendar of trunk shows. No way to contact them. I don’t get it.

Even when the pants are high waisted, it's best (I would say mandatory) to still obey the rule of having the tie end at the beginning of the pants.

My next suit will be a DB

@Kirby Allison, is the jacket ventless or has double vents? Also, are your trousers pleated and have cuffs?

First

I love double breasted. I only have one at the moment but i am looking for more.

Either the bald guy is 5'9" or Kirby is 6'4"

Wear well. fits you perfectly. just not for me. double breasted suits still remind me of the 80's and '90's, no matter how well they are cut I feel they look dated on me, not helped by the wide lapels which I also just can't cope with.

In an appropriately formal environment, they look exceptional! I worn mine in London and New York and received plenty of compliments.

By the way ..you need to find a new shirtmaker. That spread collar looks really ridiculous.

Kirby...your comment about wearing "jeans " with a double-breasted jacket is ludicrous. As a matter of fact...a true gentleman wouldn't be caught dead in a pair of jeans...for any motive....not even to shovel manure in our horse stables.

True, its weird that i suddenly stopped wearing jeans now that i think about it. Must have been years, it also doesn’t look comfy enough.
