The Straight Answer
Our Made-to-Order suits start at £649, with customers typically spending £749–£989. Your choices determine the final price.
But if you're considering custom made, you're probably wondering what makes it worth significantly more than ready-to-wear. Fair question. Let me explain.
What's Included in That Price
When you invest in custom made with us, you're getting:
A proper consultation: We spend time understanding what you want, what you need it for, and what works for your body. This isn't a five-minute chat.
Finding your fit: After choosing your design, you'll try on a master suit. We establish your fit and record the measurements and specifications for manufacture.
Fabric selection: Explore the available fabrics, weights, colours and patterns. Feel them, hold them up to the light and take your time.
Personal details: Choose from the available linings, buttons, lapels and other options. We'll explain what's possible and any extra costs.
The suit itself: Crafted to your specifications, fitted to your body.
Final try-on: Try your finished suit in-store. If adjustments are needed, we arrange them as standard, with the work and timing assessed individually.
Why the Price Range?
The £749–£989 range depends mainly on fabric choice.
Think about when you'll wear your suit, how the fabric feels and the care it needs, rather than choosing by price alone.
A more expensive fabric isn't automatically better for your needs. Try the options and see what you enjoy wearing.
We'll confirm the price for your chosen design and any upgrades before you order.
Comparing to Off-the-Peg
Our Ready-to-Wear jacket and trousers start at £175. So why might you choose Made-to-Order from £649?
Here's the honest answer: not everyone should.
Custom Made makes sense if:
• Off-the-peg never fits you properly, maybe you're tall, or broad shouldered, or somewhere between standard sizes
• You want something for multiple occasions, weddings, work, events, where looking exceptional matters
• You value having something uniquely yours
• You've tried ready-to-wear and always feel like you're wearing someone else's clothes
Ready-to-wear might be better if:
• Standard sizes fit you well
• Budget is the main concern
• You need something quickly
• You're happy with existing styles
I'll always tell you if I think ready-to-wear will work for you. There's no point spending more than you need to.
The True Cost Per Wear
Here's how I think about it: a £800 suit worn to 40 events over five years costs you £20 per wear. A £150 suit that you never feel confident in and replace after two years? That's more expensive in every way that matters.
Custom Made isn't for everyone. But if you're someone who wears suits regularly, who struggles with off-the-peg fit, or who simply wants to feel exceptional; it's an investment that pays back.
