    Absolutely mesmerised by the level of craft! The skill, technique, the experience Jeff portrays in the scissor skill, the measuring, the way Jeff speaks, it all just beyond anything I’ve seen. Jeff should hold a special teaching school for such skills to be passed on. It’s such a shame that there’s not many people like Jeff. He’s truly wonderful! I loved every second. Thank you Ali! 😊

    It's lovely to see a younger person having appreciation for traditional, almost forgotten crafts that used to offer not just bespoke experience and unique quality of each piece, but also superb execution and craftsmanship that can't be compared to contemporary generic process of production. Piece tailored on your body, made by hand to fit you perfectly and to follow your movement, body line, personality and life style will be highly valued always. Hopefully, the tradition will be continued. This seemed to be rather lovely and valuable experience for you with amazing results and I'm grateful that you decided to give it the most deserved spotlight. XO

    Hi Ali, this week I dug into how to wear aftershave / perfume and I was wearing it all wrong by spraying it last on my clothes. It can damage the fabric and accumulate different scents on top of each other. The trick is to spray first and then get dressed. Learn something new every day.

    Just remember... ALL clothes are handmade. Be conscious of what you're buying because people get far less pay for this type of work in other countries and working conditions for those people are also disturbing in mass produced clothing companies. Bespoke is definitely the way to go. Also, his tools 😍

    Love to hear such a craftsman explain the finer details; lovely man. The suit is truly a classic. I don’t like to see the tighter fit of a suit that seems to be a trend these days. It literally makes me uncomfortable to see people in clothing that is too tight. I expect the seams to give way at any moment.

You might mention this later in the video so apologies for not being patient, but have you tried made to measure and then upgraded to bespoke or moved straight to bespoke from off the rack? Folks in my area advertise made to measure but it seems like - 10 minutes in - bespoke allows for a more nuanced fit, since the latter pattern is drawn by hand?
