Long Live The Suit
by Murray Crane
We don’t speak too much about suits these days, which is surprising given that they still make up the lion share of our made-to-measure sales.
Tailored garments, particularly suits, are an integral part of our brand's identity and the product our business was founded on nearly 25 years ago. This tailoring discipline is ever present in everything we do. Whether it’s a pair of jeans, shoes, or a piece of knitwear, we take the same care and attention in the measuring and design process.
There is no question that the principles behind wearing tailored garments have changed as all of our lifestyles continue to evolve. We’re happy we’ve stayed the course and are excited by the current renaissance in formal menswear.
