Mr. Allison's hangers are wonderful. There's an outfit out of Canada that supplies Samuelsohn/etc. whose hangers hold shoulder shape nicely, also, but made out of plastic v. cedar. I'll try to find the address.

I'll look in my closet for markings on the ones I have to see if the same OEM.

I love his videos for suit fittings. It's always interesting what tiny alterations professional tailors see (that I often miss). Very educational.

Kirby's latest episode of From Suit To Shoot was great too, where he gets measured up for a hunting jacket at Poole. Not my style at all; and lots of tweeds are simply the wrong colours for my complexion. I love the tradition of those Row establishments though.

I think the quality of his videos really improved over time. Now they are just half an hour professionally shot documentaries on satorial issues, which is just wonderful to see. I really like his fitting videos especially those by Jensen and Wil Whiting, I think I really learned a lot by those.
