My First Bespoke Shirt Commission from Kent, Haste & Lachter
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
While in London recently for the first fitting of my incredible new linen suit from master tailor Terry Haste, I decided it was finally time to introduce myself to the third arm of the famous Kent , Haste & Lachter tailoring house. Until now my time had solely been spent with legendary tailors Kent and Haste, but the firm is just as well known for the fantastic shirts that are made by renowned shirt tailor Stephen Lachter.
The shirt service that Lachter offers is purely bespoke; the shape, style, cloth, colour and finer details can all be individually specified. Once the cloth is chosen and the collar, cuff and details are decided, Lachter will take measurements and assess you figuration. Your posture effects the way a shirt hangs, and so when drafting up your unique bespoke shirt pattern it is important to not only work from measurements.
So join me as I begin the wonderful journey of commissioning my first bespoke shirt from Stephen Lachter at Kent, Haste & Lachter!

Kent, Haste & Lachter also visit the New York and Palm Beach a number of times a year on trunk shows. To view their schedule, please visit www.kenthaste.co.uk/global-ta...

Plus I’m constantly using the info to upgrade how I dress, such as only wearing dress shoes and a button up shirt anytime I leave the house. Thank you! -Patrick

@@BullyBoxer that‘s me + i have a pretty standard body and feet, so i don‘t need bespoke clothing that much. I fit in most 48 regular fit suits very well after hemming the sleeves and with shoes I have a quite normal instep and normal width. Of course bespoke would probably be 5% better in very fine details but to me that‘s not worth spending that much more + i‘d be really paranoid about such expensive clothing to be ruined
Excited to see part 2 & thanks for taking us with you on your journey!
"& Lachter" - the series is complete!!!
This is a masterclass…in British humor.
As a fashion and sewing teacher it's a pleasure ti watch this great master video
47 years and ongoing. I wonder how many shirts Stephen's done in that time, must be thousands by now. It looks like Terry has taken over John's old cutting board and Sayumba has moved over to Terry's. I've got some made to measure shirts but I'd love to do some proper bespoke at some stage. Another great series on the go here.
You are in the safe hands of master craftsmen; worth every penny.
Great video. Nice to see George Atanasias (ex Turnbull & Asser) in the background during some of the shots. He made a superb pattern for me at T&A.
What would be interesting is an overcoat commission
I watch these videos and I think how special it must be to be a tailor and work in those shops. It would be an honor to visit one those places one day.
The knowledge in this video is incredible.
That was pretty cool seeing the stack of collars.
Always enjoy these visits 😊
About halfway through all I noticed was the massive bakery behind suyamba… she’s fantastic in every way
I love the older guy's Alan Rickman/Snape voice so much
It's an exact science. Enjoyed watching.
Interesting video Kirby. Look forward to seeing the next video in the series.
What a beaty that tailor lady is .... beautiful.....
Funny, just watched the older video about the difference between a $100 rtw CH and a $1000 bespoke Charvet shirt. Today it made me wearing my only bespoke shirt I have (by Luigi Borrelli) again after a year or so. I completely forgot how comfortable that feels. Indeed, apart from the fabrics, also the armpits making a clear difference, compared to ready to wear. 😮👍
I cannot wait to see the shirt!
Hey Kirby, could you consider exploring the wonderful world of classic and modern classic automobiles. A wonderful space where craftsmanship and engineering are ar its finest❤
I'm excited for the finished product. He's great. You've acquired great friends Kirby.

I think it's a cultural thing also. I travel often to Taiwan with my family and I notice that people there definitely separate inside clothes from outside clothes. They at least put some effort into looking nicer even if they don't dress in the classic style. I think it's impossible to expect the majority of people to do that anymore, but at least to realize that at-home clothes, and exercise clothes have their place and purpose and should be worn outside for normal use.
The art of looking sharp…in the making
I have a short neck, and all my dress shirts' collars touch the bottom of my hairline. I've always wondered what a bespoke shirtmaker would do about that. I guess that's the one thing that I would want to have made bespoke is a dress shirt that doesn't make my neck look short. 😆

Alumo Zephir Soyella is lovely, probably the best shirting out there in my opinion! I prefer it in heavier weights though, around 90 gms.
Masterpiece
I still think it would be quite interesting if Kirby had Brian Shaw on an episode of suit fitting cause Brian is an actual giant. Just to see the difference in sizes.
Kirby is living his best life. Good for him
You know Kirby, if you want to get another bespoke shirt. I'd go for a button-down collar, fitted linen shirt. Potentially in stripey pattern, or plain pattern. Would work really well for the summer in a navy suit or on its own. I say this because I am finding it virtually impossible to get a shirt that meets this criteria. A lot of them are soft collared or oversized which I really don't like.

I would be stunned if they would not do that. It is part of the tailor's craft to be able to make clothes that will fit and flatter the body type of any unique client. It is one of the things that distinguishes bespoke tailoring from ready to wear and even made-to-measure clothing.
Surprised you didn't choose a Winchester for the very Brit experience.
I'm also looking for a navy suit for war........
You also get a posture exam with this so that is good
How does one become a tailor these days? Is it still through an apprenticeship or are there vocational schools? If I could go back and change careers, I'd choose this path.
@danbee415

Apprenticeship. There is a savile row school which costs 20k for non uk citizens, then theres sewing courses around the UK. Tailoring is either going to be a self taught thing, or something you learn of your parents. luckily you hace the internet at your hands. I have considered tailoring and still do, a little put off by jackets and coats, theyre so hard to make.
Why’s he staring at his tie last bit of measurements ?
Why does he measure some parts and not record them?

He said the monogram on the cuff is a bit showy smh as opposed to the front belly/chest of the shirt. Not a fan of either.
