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.

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.

Unlike your average made-to-measure tailor, we specialize in pieces that are utterly unique. Clients often come to us wanting pieces that no one else will cut and tailor---from sportswear to vintage-style formalwear.

It is time to look for something fresh. Something, dare I say, fun. The old formalwear is dead and gone. After decades of being stuck in an endless repeat, formalwear is back to what is was in the earlier 20th century and before:

We have recently had the privilege of working with several remarkable fabrics from Scabal. Scabal provides much of the finest English-woven cloth to tailors on Savile Row and around the world.  English cloth is instantly recognizable by its incredible finish and drape. Because these fabrics are produced in small volumes but in thousands of styles, […]

In the United States, we tend to call the best business and formal looks and fits “European” or “Italian” or “British,”–sometimes for good reason, and sometimes merely as a shorthand for saying that a look is “good” or “exciting” or somehow intangibly different from the basic relaxed New England look that we are used to […]

We love to make full length overcoats and trench coats. Because let's face it, the coat you buy at the store is barely a coat---it just looks like one. The fabric is too lightweight.
