Kirby, I have been a client of Stefano Bemer for the past 3 years and have had commissioned shoes and suits with them. I am a huge fan of their products and enjoy them every time I wear them. What Tommaso Melani has done preserving the brand’s DNA and expanding it’s reach after the unfortunate and early passing of Mr. Bemer, I consider a great service and gift to our community of individuals that care for craftsmanship and tradition in the field of shoemaking and sartorial excellence. Thank you for your quality and in depth introduction to this amazing brand and the individuals driving it forward. Cheers! Sean.

It was immediately obvious how much more "relaxed" the Italian gentlemen were compared to Kirby. Don't get me wrong, he looks great and more like a day in London vs Florence. He'll be happy to have something made from that region.

Tommaso speaks beautiful english. I'm English, and his vocabulary and turns of phrase dwarf mine....A passionate articulate ambassador for his brand.

Looks like Tommaso is going to break Kirby free from his funeral director preferences....Can't wait to see what he makes....but I guess that episode is months if not years away. We never saw the New York Huntsman ( ? Poole ?? ) suit....such a shame.

What a wonderful and enlightening series you have produced on the style and related culture of Italy. Tomasso has opened a whole new perspective to me on the key elements and foundations of his brand and Italian clothing style. I can’t wait to see what surprise he has in store for you. Well done!👍

I am always impressed with how comfortable and laid back Italian men are in their style. It's just so natural and looks so easy.

I am British and for me no matter what I wear of excellent quality when I go to Italy I feel like I look like I am wearing a burlap sack! :)

I've been in Italy a few times. Stylish man is not a very common sight there. Majority of men are dressed in sportswear. It is still a step above from sleepwear that Americans are wearing.

The shoes are beautiful. Don't know about the jackets, they look like they've been slept in.

@@kirbyallison also if you need a guide I know a few good American translators/guides I can recommend that also have youtube channels. Like Quinlan from Go North Japan. And it is one of the easiest places to travel/film (unless you're talking drone shots) but quinlan could probably help with that as he does a lot of drone stuff.

Love the series so far.... but is it the Stefano Bemer business tour or Italian tour ? 3 episode about these guys...

@kirbyallison 10 күн бұрын

Tommaso and his family are a big part of traditional craft in Florence, so impossible to do something there without featuring them heavily. He also was very kind to help coordinate a lot of our filming in Florence. But, don't worry, with 20 episodes, there will be plenty of variety!
