1. Can you tell us more about Michael's background?
He trained at Paul Smith Bespoke and with Joe & Roy from Chittleborough and Morgan
2. Who do the tailors in the UK and overseas work too. John, Micheal or you?
All staff are employed by us... Is that what you mean
3. Are the UK tailors you use just used for finishing and the overseas operation for the making?
No we have coatmakers here and overseas
4. What happens when I leave your shop with my bespoke suit? What after care do you recommend and where can I best achieve this
Aftercare is a long answer dependent on the garment/use etc etcbut in short
We have an agreement with Jeeves all customers with our items get a discount using their services or we offer sponge and press service ourselves
5. Do you recommend all your bespoke client return after 3 months to see how the suit is wearing? Graham Browne do this
Without question
Regarding charges for ours and Johns suits - the difference comes in several areas.. We buy our cloth far cheaper than most as we make a large amount of suits and also we buy cloth on behalf of the other tailors we make for. John has been in the business for decades and has his set pricing and prefers to work with a limited number of customers and provide a better level of service than if he offered his own direct customers a lower price and had more of them....
