Thanks so much for sharing this review, Benjamin! I'm so happy to hear you had a great experience and the jacket looks phenomenal on you. Looking forward to more of your videos and best to you in the New Year.
Nice dinner jacket! However as a bow tie wearer there is one thing that bothers me. The bow tie gap that shows throughout. You should’ve tightened the bow tie and re-tied it to totally cover the collar space. It always looks much better especially when wearing formal wear if there is no bow tie gap showing. You want the bow to stand out looking a sharp as possible and avoiding any sort of gap at the collar. This way you will be a very sharp dresser.
Thanks for sharing this video! The jacket looks outstanding on you. Great choice! I love Brian’s YT channel! I wish I could get him to come help me liberate my closet!
Happy new year Benjamin! Love this dinner jacket on you. The fit is really close to perfection. It compliments your physique extremely well! Good choice!
That’s a superb jacket! For a M2M garment the price is worth it. I have ordered a couple of spier and McKay jackets MTO and they are around 605 Euro without customization. Well done.
@@SartorialStyles it has been really pleasant, and the measurements have worked out nicely. My last MTM sports coat was the blue and beige Marlin and Evans houndstooth. Very classic.
Your outfit at 4:06 is exquisite. Overall the dinner jacket looks really good on you, there is quite a bit of bunching at the back of the sleeves though, I'm not sure if that is something they would have been able to correct though, without it being a bespoke Garment.
Thanks a lot - a video about the suit featured in the outfit is in the making. ;-) I saw the bunching as well and also some slight wrinkling in between the shoulders at the back. I will send Michael Andrews some pictures before ordering again, maybe he will be able to fix these issues.
@@SartorialStyles You're welcome! There is also some collar gap in the back. I hope I'm not making you dislike your jack (it still looks nice), I just wanted to point those things out to you since you paid alot of money. Hopefully these are things that can be fixed for your next garment from HSS x MAB.
@@SartorialStyles Benjamin, would you say Spier and Mackay is close to HSS x MAB when it comes to Quality, or would you say that HSS x MAB is much better?
Hi Benjamin, really nice RU-vid channel you got! You know I just bought the same dinner jacket, just a couple questions, is it normal that on the beginning of the arms on the sleeve and on the upper back the canvas is a little see through? Thanks in advance
Thank you! This is actually one of my very few vintage pieces. I bought it at a vintage store in Palma de Mallorca which is called Unico Vintage and they have an awesome collection of rather casual stuff like Levi's denim jeans and jackets and Burberry Trenchcoats. This particular jacket is made by a brand I have never heard about and the name on the tag is written so weirdly that I can't read it properly. :D
Looks good on you! However, I cannot imagine why while living in Germany you would order, on-line of all things, a dinner jacket from America?! Are German tailors extinct or inferior? If so why not pop over to Saville row or France, Italy etc.? Strange indeed IMHO!
