After a fantastic experience being measured for a double bespoke commission by two legendary tailors John Kent and Terry Haste, of Kent, Haste & Lachter, it is finally time for the first fittings.
In today's video, watch Kirby go through the first fitting with each tailor, as they begin to check their suit patterns against the fit. The first fitting is really more for the tailors than it is the client. At this stage, everything is just being checked. The suit is only at a basted stage, so all of the stitching can be ripped out and the suit disassembled and adjusted.

Letting the waist out 2 meters was hilarious 😂😂

@NedLawrence2434 2 years ago

Next Monday, 5th Feb 2024, I’m off for my first fitting with Terry…..yay!

@krunoslavkovacec1842 3 years ago

The interactions between these two is something you don't see very often nowadays. A genuine, wholesome friendship.

@petermaag9622 3 years ago

Actually beginning to be shocked this hasn't blown up into some larger TV/streaming/whatnot deal. Don't even need to change a thing. Production gold. Kudos, KA

@inglese2996 3 years ago

Speaking as a Londoner, John and terry are great ambassadors for the city. They’re honest, highly skilled, warm with a easy manner and a good dash of humour. Well spoken and articulate, but not posh, and clearly strive to provide a top-notch service. This is a great mini-series.

Can’t beat that old school London banter

@mrwhitespaleking5190 3 years ago

These gentleman are treasures. If nothing else, these videos will be a wonderful archive of the trade.

Kirby: "Is there a difference between how you'd prepare your fittings?"
Terry: "oh yeah, mine will fit"
I did not see that coming!! 🤣 Another golden non-chalant moment by Terry

@pauldaviesantiques1556 3 years ago

Could listen to these two all day: true London craftsmen with a wicked sense of humour.

1:02 what a player he was...

@rayflynn162 3 years ago

Sayumba is becoming the star of the show ⭐

@bighock2886 3 years ago

"We're going to let this out about two meters." Lol. She is fantastic

@darrenclarke3677 3 years ago

British irony and dryness lost on Kirby at times 😊

@khsmith6242 2 years ago

Love this, I still appreciate these old school British traditions and skilled tradesmen and woman. I think there’s a huge swell in Britain to go back to simpler times where skills were paramount not technology

@Thecat1962-h8p 5 months ago

Proper English humor, two masters in their field, may this tradition continue for a long time.

@ThatGuyOnYoutube2 10 months ago (edited)

Listening to this guy take measurements and mark is so soothing

@Bishx43 3 years ago

I could watch these fittings all day. John Terry and Suyamba are masters of their craft

@biblybims9868 3 years ago

You don’t often hear a true London accent these days,so for me personally this was golden

@CiganoBoxer 3 years ago

It’s always good to watch channels where you actually learn something, and watching two of the finest suit makers ply their craft is such an eye opener.

This channel is an absolute gem .👌🏻
