Shirt Guide



Our shirts are handmade from start to finish using the best fabrics. We prioritize meticulous attention to detail and are able to fulfill any unique demands you could have. Nothing compares to a custom shirt's fit and comfort.


The following are the typical features of our shirts, unless you specify otherwise:

1. The cut.  We offer the classic traditional cut.

2. Sleeve.  We offer long sleeve (as standard) and short sleeve shirt style.

3. Number of buttons.  We offer standard seven buttons (not including the buttons on the cuffs).

4. Placement of the second button.  This placement is slightly towards the top button to give an appropriate exposure when unbuttoned.

5. Sewing.  The sewing is all done by hand-worked sewing machines.

6. Fabric shrinkage.  There is no need to worry about fabric shrinkage as we will perform steaming session to shrink the fabric prior to starting our shirt-making process.

7. Quality control.  Checks and re-checks at every step by our Master Tailor cuts, stitches, shape, buttonholes, and collar shape, cuffs, everything.

8. The finished product. One ready, your shirt will be folded, packaged and mailed to you.

9. The Collar. Our Collars are fused to provide the right level of firmness and thickness. We offer three classic styles with many other styles.

10. Collar Stays Pockets. We provide discreet pockets for insertion of collar stays that can be removed for washing and ironing. The collar stays themselves, made in sterling silver, are available for purchase


11. Yokes. To guarantee the proper fit and flexibility of movement, we construct our yokes from a distinct piece of fabric.

12. Shirt Front Plackets. Our shirt fronts are precisely balanced thanks to the 1.25-inch placket made of the shirt's real body.

13. Buttons. All buttons are of the finest quality and are attached with crossed lock stitching to prevent them becoming detached.

14. Buttonholes. Our shirt buttonholes are elegantly hand-sewn, with a fine and thin stitch. An apprenticeship of six months is required of sewers before they are permitted to install buttonholes.

15. The Gauntlets. The gauntlets are properly strengthened, and we usually place a small button in the middle of the gauntlet.

16. Cuffs. As a standard we offer a classic one/two button cuff and the double cuff (French cuff) for use with cufflinks. Buttonholes of the double cuff are placed slightly nearer the end of the cuff for more cufflink exposure when worn under a jacket. All cuff types are joined to the sleeves by the conventional two-pleat style.

17. Shirt Tail. Shirt tail is extra-long to avoid the shirt coming out during movement.

18. Stitching and Seams. We use a technique that combines stitching shirt tails and side seams in one step, strengthened by a clean second row of threads. Single-needle stitching is used throughout, with an 18–20 stitch per inch gauge..

19. Symmetry. Stripe and check patterns will be matched to give symmetry at various points of the shirt: the collar, cuff, placket, breast pocket, yoke and gauntlet area.
