The Garments

Casual Tailoring & Sport Coats

Tailoring isn't only for weddings and boardrooms. An unstructured sport coat, a pair of chinos and an open-collar shirt, cut to you, are the pieces most men wear most and buy worst.

A soft, unstructured sport coat is the hardest-working garment a man owns: thrown over a shirt for dinner, worn open on a Sunday, dressed up or down in a second. Cut to your shoulders with little padding, it feels like a favourite cardigan and looks like tailoring.

Add chinos cut to your rise, an open-collar or camp shirt for warm days, and a blazer that pairs with everything, and you have a weekend wardrobe as considered as your suits, just easier.

Common questions

Good to know.

Straight answers
Do you make casual jackets, not just suits?

Yes. Soft, unstructured sport coats and blazers are some of my favourite things to make. Cut to your shoulders with little padding, they feel easy and look like proper tailoring.

Can you make chinos and casual trousers?

Yes: cotton and linen trousers cut to your rise and break, on their own or to pair with a sport coat. Same fit, less formality.

What cloth works for a casual jacket?

Hopsacks, linens, cottons and soft tweeds: textured, breathable cloths that read relaxed. I'll steer you by how and where you'll actually wear it.
