After a long wait, Kirby was finally able to get back over to London. So to celebrate, he invited his good friend Tom Chamberlin, editor of The Rake magazine, to join him for a special 'Gentlemen's Day Out In London', doing a selection of their favorite activities. This gave them the perfect chance to catch up, and discuss the current situation for bespoke craftspeople and heritage firms through London.

    • ​@@01menyou You need to get a more positive outlook on life, and some manners. The world has always been in chaos, and probably always will be. The good news is that, overall, the world is and has been constantly improving. For example poverty in the world has been cut in half since year 2000. Rich and good people are constantly doing something to improve the world. And yes, there is much more to do and is being done. But what should we and they do in the mean time? Should we all stop living, be unhappy and miserable because there are "food and power shortages" somewhere else? How will that help them or us? Sartorial life is what they are passionate about, just like someone else is passionate about video games, movies, or playing football. Should Lionel Messi and Ronaldo stop playing fotball and sit at home and cry about food and power shortages instead? If you plan to not be passionate about things until all world's major problems are resolved, you are going to die a very unhappy man.

I have a lot of Floris fragrances: No. 89, Elite (my favorite), Honey Oud, Leather Oud, 1962, Neroli Voyage, Santal. Understated English elegance.

I remember travelling to Spain back in the late nineties and meeting some proper well-mannered British ladies and gentlemen. Now I come back to those places and don't see anyone quite like that... At first I though - maybe I don't go to the same kind of places I used to go... Where are these people? And a terrible thought struck me - these people are too old to travel or no longer alive. The tradition is slowly dying too. Thank you for preserving it. Greetings from Russia.

    • Dressing yourself in the factory setting is never an overkill. Japanese will always have a locker and perhaps a shower in the factory office so they can change to dress up nicely after the shift. They won't use the same shirt in the factory floor with their commuting shirt and suit. Not just factory workers but also government employees even soldiers in the JSDF and police. You can meet a nicely dress gentlemen in Izakaya even though they're just clocking off their job on the factory floor or manning the security guard tower in an airbase or a firefighter.

Whilst this day out may seem a little grand and perhaps Kirby does look very retro formal - I think he is passionate about heritage , craftsmanship, and the great history of London and he’s travelled a long way. It’s also his buisness and he is promoting something that needs preserving and to be fair is absolutely outstanding. I may not do all those things in one day , not BR able to afford to do them all in one day but I will do them all several times in my life time.

  • Great video Kirby It’s funny, because I really started watching your channel in earnest during the initial wave of the pandemic, as a way to calm down after long hours working at the hospital. And now, it is nice to see you out and about emerging in these videos. I don’t fool myself into thinking we’re back in to normalcy, but I can’t help but notice how much your channel and presence has grown in the last two years. Your Content is better, and you are making videos which look better, and you seem more at ease in these videos. They’re natural But I want to say, as a long overdue thanks, your live streaming shows during the initial pandemic were a tremendous comfort. Almost like FDR addressing the nation during World War II Cheers

That was a phenomenal experience for me as a viewer and subscriber of yours and as an enthusiast of all things with class. Men all over the world should see the elegance and culture of what it means to be a gentleman in our day and age today. Everything about it just exudes refinement and discipline. This video of yours is a prime example of how gentlemen should be presenting themselves. I liked the video; excellent presentation! Kudos to your fellow gents for their participation, too!
