What We Do
Our mission is to create special and permanent pieces that transcend trends.
For over 20 years Made to Measure has been the backbone of our offering.
We are proud of our quality and obsessed by detail.
What started in New Zealand with our own small workroom producing shirts, has grown to include Suits, Shirts, Shoes, Ties, Blazers & Trousers.
We have retained our workroom and still manage all tailoring, hand finishing and quality control in house.
Made in Italy remains the pinnacle for Menswear production and we have fostered close working relationships with a network of respected artisan producers.

Suede Chukka
The name ‘Chukka’ is said to be derived from the seven and a half minute Polo playing period called a Chukker or Chukka. The term is itself derived from the Hindi word ‘chukkar’ meaning ‘circle’ or ‘turn’.

The Linen we use in our shirts is cultivated in Normandy, where favourable conditions and generations of knowledge gives life to the most precious linen of the world. Linen is a fibre which is European by history and tradition.
The nature, composition and architecture of the fibres give the flax excellent properties; maximum resistance, high capacity to absorb humidity, insulating and thermo-regulating properties, non-allergenic characteristics.
