Custom shirting
Our custom shirting program boasts robust customization, both in fit possibilities and style specifications.
We can craft nearly any shirt you have in mind—there are dozens of collar styles (and permutations within those styles), cuff styles, pocket styles, buttons, front and back styles, and monogramming options. Our shirts range from classic dress, formal tuxedo, to casual, like a safari-style short-sleeve or a snap-button western-yoke denim shirt.
Cloth selections are also vast in terms of quality, color, and pattern. We typically recommend Italian-origin cloths from Thomas Mason, Albini, and Canclini due to their remarkable quality and selection.
We have a 3-shirt minimum order for first time shirt clients. Here's why - we've found that by making one shirt as a test sample, we are able to ensure not only a proper fit template, but also able to ensure the styling is an accurate representation of your vision. Once we lock in the style and fit of the first shirt, it is turn-key to make the rest of the set - and then any future shirts you may desire (for future orders, you may order singles).
For timing, our shirts can take 3-4 weeks depending on fabric and construction. We’re happy to walk you through options in an in-person consultation or quick phone call.
First fitting: Typically, most clients jump right into this appointment. Custom shirting appointments are roughly 30-45 minutes. We’ll take your body measurements and have you try on a fit garment so we can get on the same page about your fit preferences. This is when you’ll choose a fabric and we’ll guide you through the design process.
Second fitting: This is a quick try-on to make sure you’re happy with the fit. If so, you can take it home and we’ll co-design the subsequent shirts based on this one. If not, we’ll make adjustments in our tailoring workshop upstairs and apply those changes to your shirt pattern. Then we’ll order your remaining shirts.
Final fitting and delivery: If your first shirt required alterations (which they often do not), you’ll pick it up along with your subsequent two shirts. From here, we can reorder any shirts for you at any time. No fitting or in-person appointment needed, and no minimums apply. We can also correspond via email and send you photos of shirt swatches and can even ship the shirts to your location of choice upon completion.
