  This is the best Men’s Style channel on YouTube.

  This channel is in a class of it's own. It's almost belittling to call it a men's style channel, to me it's more about a whole philosophy of masculinity channel. And that makes it invaluable.

  I bought my first Harris tweed jacket second hand at a car boot sale when I was 17. I was still wearing that jacket when I reached 45.<br>Over the years my collection has grown and much to my wife&apos;s consternation I am still addicted 😁

  This is next level. A full-fledged documentary on YouTube on Harris tweed? My deepest respect for you two lovely people! Thank you for this gem, watching it was a pleasant journey, absolutely brilliant!

  As a Scottish person I&apos;m very happy to see Harris tweed well regarded throughout the world. Tweed like this is part of the fabric of Scotland, sometimes because it is around you, regularly seen, it is not as appreciated as it should be. It is true Scottish people are different and very welcoming.

  Wow, Hugo &amp; Sonya, you&apos;ve outdone yourselves on this one. Simply stunning, the depth and import of these vital crafts that make up the men&apos;s style world. Wonderful. You are helping to keep these gems alive and relevant in today&apos;s global market, littered with fast fashion junk and disposable items and ideas. Classics always endure. That&apos;s why they&apos;re classics. Even though it&apos;s 80 degrees today in Los Angeles, I&apos;m going to wear my lime green Harris Tweed jacket when the sun goes down, in your honor. You two are the best in the business. Thanks, Bobby

  Harris Tweed as a product is the perfect coalescence of environment, resources, craftsmanship and artistry, and it shows. Great to see this highlight from Hugo. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

  From the Sheepies, Farmers, Industrial designers and Weavers this is fascinating.

  I can add little to all of the praise of Hugo and Sonya here except to say that 30 minutes ago I had no interest in Harris Tweed. Now, I am arranging an appointment with my tailor to get a coat.<br><br>Well done!

  This was so interesting and has given me a whole new appreciation for a community and artisanship that I already deeply admired.

  I come from the tropics and have no use for Tweed but on a recent visit to the UK, my son and DIL bought me a lovely Harris Tweed handbag and I purchased a matching wallet. So lovely and a cherished souvenir of my visit. Actually at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StD2rtAeuC4&amp;t=589">9:49</a>, the pattern/colours we chose to purchase on that visit appeared on the screen~!
