We have covered many custom suit companies here on TPL, but one that always intrigued me specifically was Michael Andrews Bespoke. I had always heard good things about it, knew a few people who were quite happy (and looked phenomenal) in their clothes, and there are few shops in NYC that feel comfortable referring to themselves as true “bespoke”, so it was something I was keen to try, especially at what seemed to be quite reasonable prices for what you were getting…
Read moreSenszio Take 2: Two More Great Custom Suits In Review
In the never-ending quest for tailored perfection, Senszio is attempting to etch its name as a haven where craftsmanship and affordability intertwine seamlessly. For my latest suit with them I chose a double-breasted linen suit, the epitome of summer sophistication; my past experiences with Senszio had paved the way for eager expectations…
Read moreReview: Alan David Custom Suits
As you probably know, when it comes to “custom” suits people are referring to one of two things. Made To Measure — which is when an existing pattern for a suit is altered to your body. Or bespoke, which is a purely custom pattern, constructed on your body, across multiple fittings, just for you…
Read moreA Custom Made Stretchy Suit?! You Bet. Say Hello To Sene
We are not sure how this happened, but somehow custom menswear company Sene has flow beneath our radar for too long. Without giving away too much up front, they are likely one of the most underrate companies in the custom menswear space right now. To give some quick background, they offer custom made — meaning, made-to-measure — clothing for guys spanning everything from jeans, to shirts, to coats, to full suits…
Read moreThe New Custom Suit Kid On The Block: Kashiyama
What happens when you work at Indochino but think they’ve gone a bit too mainstream, and lost their quality? Well, Kashiyama is the answer to that question. It’s a new custom suit company founded by an ex-Indochino guy (and others) that is trying to offer what Indochino is offering, but do it better, and in higher quality…
Read moreSuitsupply Takes A Serious Step Into Custom: A Review Of Their Custom Made Suit Program
It is no secret that we are big fans of SuitSupply around these parts. Indeed, who in the modern menswear world isn’t a fan of SuitSupply? They are renown (at this point world-over) for offering exceptional quality for the price point, and are, hands down, one of, if not the single best, value for off-the-rack suiting. Whether you are looking for a first suit, or a 12th, you cannot go wrong with SuitSupply…
Read moreOliver Wicks Custom MTM Suits In Review — Will They Reign Supreme?!?!
We continue to build out our collection of online MTM reviews, especially with suits and tailoring. And no discussion of that would be complete without reviewing Oliver Wicks. They custom suits start at $549 and go up from there. They are a well-respected and well-known custom suit brand, but how do they stack up? Here is our review and comparison…
Read moreReview: TailorStore Custom Blazers
We have taken a loot at TailorStore before. We reviewed their shirts, in fact. This time, though, we are looking at their blazers ($215+). We concluded that their shirts were actually a very solid value, so the question now is whether the same thing is true about their blazers and more formal “tailoring”…
Read moreReview: The Hook & Albert Garment Weekender Bag (+ Dopp Kit)
Some products really live up to the hype, and this is one of them. That’s not say it isn’t without some flaws, but, coming right out at the top of this thing, the Garment Weekender Bag from Hook & Albert ($500) is truly a superb product…
Read moreHockerty Custom Made To Measure Suit Review
We continue our ongoing series of covering all of the online made to measure clothing options! This time it’s with a brand you have likely heard of, Hockerty. In short, think of them as Indochino, only cheaper. They’re trying to offer and cater to a market that finds even Indochino expensive. Dubious? Well, you should be. We didn’t have high hopes with Hockerty from the get-go, and, in the end, we were not at all surprised…
