Handmade MTM in London

[TEHesketh]

Hi Nadal,

I have several suits from Cheshire Clothing Company which are excellent. After they went bust the key people were taken on by Tony Lutwyche for his operation and I believe he tried to sell their MTM service to others on the row, so it might be worth you looking into that angle.
However, I bought direct from their factory in Crewe and paid the factory price. Now as another Poole customer, I personally would want a bigger price differential to Pooles before going for the MTM options you mention (I would seriously consider it at the factory prices though, if it were convenient for me to go there).

Hope this helps

Rob

Made To Measure Suits

This label offers our clients an exceptional Made to Measure product cut from our own unique Byrne & Burge pattern in the house style. All garments are made to the highest standards by a dedicated team of Savile Row tailors and cutters. Like the Bespoke garments, they are fully canvassed and handmade, right down to the button holes.
Byrne & Burge provide the additional service of a baste fitting if required. This service has much of the feel and choice of the Bespoke range, with a carefully selected collection of cloths and linings.
Our Made to Measure suits take only 6-8 weeks

Ex-Poole's cutter. Maybe of some interest...

Thanks for throwing our name into the hat, Just to clarify on our bespoke suit:
We cut the suit on Savile Row and baste here. Once recut the suit is then stripped down and sent to our workshop overseas. I stress it is our workshop.

The price of our bespoke is £300 pounds on top of out M2M
We also do a semi-bespoke for £150 extra (same handstitching but made straight to finish)

We have in our city shop semi made up jackets showing our differing levels of construction which when I get a sec I will post on out blog and also on here if it is of interest.

Thx Sleats
