Fabrics Our fabrics are all sourced from genuine European Mills with a long heritage. All fabrics are weaved in Italy to high standards using Extra Long Staple Cotton. Read more about what makes a good quality fabric here. |

Interlining We are currently the only tailor in Singapore that uses premium interlining from Wendler, a company that has 165 years of experience in producing top quality interlining. Different collar stiffness are available for our clients' choice which is influenced by our variety of interlining available. The Interlinings from Wendler are known to have minimal shrinkage values, with a brushed nature that grips the fabric well, thereby holding itself competently through multiple washes without bubbling. |

Buttons We offer 3mm thick, Mother of Pearl buttons for all our shirts in a choice of White or Smoke. After a lengthy hunt, we sourced our buttons from manufacturers of impeccable quality Australian Deep Shell Mother of Pearl products. We curate each batch of supplies to ensure our buttons possess a deep mottled glistening that will give your shirt that distinguished look. |

|
Economies of Scale Uncommon in our industry, we purchase our fabrics in bulk direct from the European mills. At any single point of time, we stock at least 130 to 140 designs of bulk fabrics in our shop with more selections from the books. |
|
By investing heavily into fabrics, we are able to offer to our clients shirts at wholesale prices. Similar to our fabrics, our trimmings (Mother of Pearl Buttons, Interlining etc.) are all purchased in bulk quantities to ensure that we get the best at the lowest possible prices, which savings we then pass on to our clients. |
|
Construction All our shirts are constructed locally. While manufacturing prices overseas could generally be cheaper, our factories are all local to ensure a necessary high level of Quality Control. A good working relationship with our factory allows us to not only maintain a high quality, in addition it empowers us to innovate and improve our shirt constructions. |
|
|
All shirts come with felled seams or single needle stitching upon request and they are attached with approximately 15 to 16 stitches per inch with an emphasis on clean buttonholes. |

Fit Ultimately, we can offer you the best materials and the best construction but nothing matters if the shirt does not fit. Fit is always subjective. Some prefer a fitting cut while others prefer a billowy cut. While we’ve not had many issues with delivering a shirt to a satisfied customer, we know that to reach your desired fit, elaborate communication is a must. We will be glad to partake on this sartorial journey. |
