How do I
place an order? All you have to
do is give us a call or send us an email to schedule your personal
and private appointment.
How long does it take to have my suit
made? The complete turn-a-round time to
have your custom suit done will take only 3 1/2 to 4
weeks.
What is the price of a custom made
shirt? Our line of custom made
shirts start at only $85 and go up to around $175. The fabric and
amount of detail customization determines the price. Be sure to
visit our "Value Packages" page for package discounts.
What is the price of a custom made
suit? Our
line of custom made suits start at only $450 and go up to around
$1400. The fabric and amount of detail customization determines the
price. Be sure to visit our "Value Packages" page for package
discounts.
How often should I dry clean my
clothing? You should dry clean only when the
garment is soiled. Only steam and press when it is wrinkled.
The dry cleaning process slowly removes the natural emollients found
in the fibers of your garment, thus over time this can leave it
stiffer and less lustrous then originally.
What kind of starch should I use on
my shirts? Starch is an abrasive material
composed of tiny granules which over time can actually degrade the
shirt fabric. We endorse light starch only. If you like a
stiffer collar and cuff, have us double fuse them during crafting.
This will give you the same feeling as heavy starch without the
damage.
Why do some wool fabrics wrinkle more
than others? Because they have lower thread
counts and because of the finished weave. Clothes are graded
according to the finished thread count and the higher the thread
count, generally the more resilient to wrinkling. Also, many
weaves are currently used to manufacture fabrics and some are
designed to minimize wrinkles. This includes the new
clothes that are marketing as “travel cloths”. We can guide
you expertly when you make your selections. Request our fabric
grading booklet for a detailed exclamation.
My skin sometimes shows sensitivity
to wools, are there some I can still
wear? Absolutely! Wools are woven with two
basically different preparatory techniques called combing and
carding. You would opt for a cloth featuring both. This
technique will render the cloth very smooth and minimize
irritation.
What is the correct shoe to
wear? This really depends on
your personal style. Lace ups are always classy with suits, but some
slip ons are just as appropriate. Just don't get caught up in the
tennis shoes and suit thing.
What knot should I use on my
neckties? The four-in-hand is the current knot of
choice because it allows you to tie a wonderful knot with the
thicker woven ties that are very popular today.
What collar spread should I use on my
shirts? Oval faces look best with a narrow spread
and narrow or aquiline faces look best with a more open spread.
Are double-breasted styles
in? Absolutely! It’s all about your individual
style, not what the masses are endorsing.
What about
vests? Same answer as above.
Pleated pant vs. plain front – what
should I do? They both have a place. Pleats tend
to balance wider shouldered builds and offer more comfort.
Plain front pants are trimmer and very flattering. Choose
according to the application they will be worn for.
What about vibram soles versus
leather soles? There are very dressy vibram shoes
available today that are perfect for those individuals who do not
wear rubbers in the rain or snow. You cannot discern that the
shoe has a rubber bottom! Leather is great for dry days but if
it gets wet, be sure to use shoe trees or when it dries it has a
tendency to curl.
I just lost/gained significant
weight, can my clothes be adjusted? Depending on
your build, clothing can be altered up to two sizes.
