Each part of our custom shirts is tailored to your exact needs. The option
to customize every area of the shirt is what truly makes each shirt “Custom”.

Starting with fabrics at various qualities from Italian or East European mills that produce high end fabric. The best shirts use two ply yarn as their base and you can find superfine cotton as high as 140/2 only at Sam’s.

High-end cotton, Italian Linen from the world’s best manufacturers, bamboo and modal yarn fabrics are available.

Depending on your taste and requirements, the collar, for example, has three levels of stiffness to choose from.

The collar spread determines the look of the Shirt as European or American. Choose from a short 6.4 cm collar or a 7.6cm collar or a 8.6 cm collar. Then you can choose from five different spreads of the collar and three different heights for the collar band, to allow you to determine the level of dressiness.

For the best fit possible, all of Sam’s shirt collars are made from high- quality German interlining with zero shrinkage. The collar is sewn to the wearers exact requirement snug or going as far to keep a bobbing Adam’s apple in consideration.

Sleeve cuffs are another area of customization, whether your preference is for French cuffs or regular cuffs, there are more than a dozen options to choose from.

The list goes on and on, front plackets, pockets, pocket flaps and gussets, untucked shirts in shorter lengths or formal dress shirts or
in between, hundreds of buttons and a variety of qualities, mother of pearl, coconut or bone or horn. Shoulders are made from 4 parts of bias-cut fabric for the perfect fit.

Monograms are standard, Sam is probably one of the few tailors who offers these luxuries standard.

Buttons are sewn on a Swiss made Ascolite button sewing machine that creates a shank or neck so the button will last the lifetime of the shirt.
