The Art of the Custom Tailcoat

Every good design, no matter how minimal, contains a grain of fantasy. It clips the thread of reality, allowing the balloon to soar. It opens up a new vista, unexpectedly, like a vibrant sunset revealed by a break in the dull architecture that surrounds us.

The Legend of the Embroidered Suit

Most of the embroidered suits we make are embroidered entirely by hand, with 60 hours of chain and blanketstitch embroidery and hundreds of Swarovski crystals.  The result is that our pieces look and feel incredibly natural in comparison to pieces embroidered by machine.

The Custom Horsehide Jacket

A tougher, thinner, denser sort of leather. Mid-century leather jackets, including the original motorcycle jackets, were as often made from horsehide as cow, goat, lamb and other leathers. Horsehide has the advantage of being incredibly tough and dense.

The Meaning of Bespoke Handwork

There is nothing harder than trying to describe true bespoke clothing to a perspective client today. The market is saturated with factory made goods that are somewhat customizable in color and fit, but have nothing to do with the art of tailoring.

Bespoke Tweed Suits

When it comes to wool fabrics, no type of fabric represents menswear heritage like tweed: Classic weaves like herringbones, and houndstooth.  Flecked Irish Donegal yarns with so many colors.  Estate plaids and hunting thornproof. These fabrics are part of an ancient tradition that dates back over 2,000 years in England, Scotland, and Ireland.

Legendary Vegan Suits

The traditional heritage tailored suit is almost entirely made from animal products----from the wool of the main fabric to the silk thread and detailing.  The buttons are made from buffalo horn or shell and the interior canvas is made from goat hair.

Retro Military Greatcoats and Trenchcoats

Every coat that we make is built from scratch and based on a custom pattern that is drafted to fit the needs of the client. Add a pocket, change the button placement, add a leather undercollar, remove the cuff or just slightly change the profile of the cuff to get the look you want—we can do virtually anything and will sketch ideas until we get the look just right.
