The best way to order a custom shirt is to visit the shop in Johannesburg, to see examples in person, try on sizes, or start the fitting process.

1. Choose a fabric or choose a shirt from the styles on the rack

   • look through and feel our catalogue of fabrics in person or online

     • We offer over 1000 fabric choices from three Italian fabric mills, Canclini, Solbiati, and Bonfanti

     • We also stock a small selection of Japanese shirting fabrics

   • browse through the shirts on the rack for inspiration

2. Choose the fit that's right for you:

   • try on the men's standard sizes on the rack to see if they work for you

   • if the standard sizes can be improved upon, we will start the custom fitting process by measuring your figure and then pinning and sculpting the calico fitting pattern

   • for women, we offer custom-fit only, so we will take your measurements once you are ready to order

   • if you've already had a custom pattern made, we can use it to make another shirt for you

3. Customize the design details:

   • start from scratch with the design and choose collar, cuffs, pockets, buttons, and all the other details individually, or get inspiration from the shirts on the rack

   • we will help guide you through the process so that your shirt is flattering and comfortable, in addition to being tailor-made

Shirts and shirt-dresses range in price from R2500-R4500, depending on the fabric and the design details chosen.

For a custom fit, there is an initial deposit of R1000 for the custom pattern. The deposit is applied as a credit towards the fifth shirt ordered. In effect, the custom pattern fee is waived if the client orders 5 shirts or more.
