Every item is hand- cut and hand-made by a master craftsman at our Castleford premises to the client’s individual pattern. And all my bespoke suits are handmade to your precise requirements to create a garment that is uniquely tailored to you.
Choose either my entry level Made To Measure. Mid range Semi Bespoke. Or my top end traditional Full Bespoke. Rest assured that all my suits are genuinely handmade to your individual measure. I do not outsource any part of your order to a third party.
Bespoke Suits
I have always been a firm believer in good honest advice told in plain English. Clients always have a choice. They can either buy into the heritage, history, craft and art of a real, time served bespoke tailor like myself. Or they can buy into the self promoting hype, the fancy location and bullshit talk of a salesman that is posing as a tailor. It’s really that simple. A real bespoke tailor is someone who has actually apprenticed under a master or in my case several masters. Buyer beware, do your research and make sure you are getting a real bespoke suit, you have been warned.
A ‘normal’ suit that is made in any kind of modern factory set up will take merely minutes to fully make. Of course you couldn’t follow a suit from the cutting room to the final despatch in a few minutes, but the actual time, or time and motion time due to the nature of sub division on a large-scale means the actual make time for a suit is very low indeed. My late fathers factory as an example made a fully machined two piece suit around every 25 minutes. By comparison, all my bespoke suits will take at least 65 full man hours of my time to make. There is just no comparison between a real bespoke made suit in terms of quality, fit, the customer service you will receive and a factory made suit however it may be dressed up, period.
