We offer handsome tailored jackets that can easily be enjoyed with a dress shirt and fine necktie; or paired more casually with a sweater and an open collared shirt. Of course, there are also weekend clothes that can be enjoyed every day. As usual, wonderful, yet subtle, color, as well as uncompromising quality, timeless style and exceptional value, is the mark of our collection of balanced, proportioned and comfortable clothing. As a true “mom and pop” business for 40 years (yes, that’s us below), we pride ourselves on our experienced, knowledgeable and caring service—the proud product of a dedicated and courteous staff.

Our neckwear is made entirely by hand in our English or Italian workrooms. The cutting, sewing and f inishing are all done by hand. Each of our ties is cut by an artisan into 3 pieces – the back, the front, and the neck – allowing the tie to conform to the neck.A stitch, called a bar tack, is also applied by hand, and joins the two sides on the back. Our ties have a slipstitch, whose end, knotted, can be found loose under the bar tacked area.This stitch gives resilience to the tie and assures that it will fall out to return to its original shape when hung in your closet. All our ties are lined to produce the proper weight for the tie, so that they knot perfectly. Our neckties are cut from the finest materials – generally pure English or Italian silk, but occasionally Scottish cashmere, wool or Irish linen.You can feel the luxuriousness of the fabric in the hand of the tie,whether woven or printed.

In a Spring season like no other, you need versatility as well as quality and style in your shirts. Because we know you are as likely to wear one of our f ine shirts under a sweater, or under a jacket, but without a necktie, we have constructed each of these new fabrics into cutaway collar shirts. The cutaway collar, always smart looking as well as comfortable, sits very well with the top button unbuttoned, and therefore offers a stylish versatility under a jacket, even (dare we say!) without a necktie. Beneath a sweater, the cutaway is discrete and also never f loppy. In choosing these six new fabrics, woven in Switzerland expressly for us, we selected classic patterns that will provide understated elegance, however they are worn. These f ine shirts are constructed, as all our shirts are, to assure the softness and silky hand of the fabric, and for comfort and durability.The pure cotton shirts are high thread count 2-ply Swiss cotton; the cotton and linen shirts offer the comfort and durability of cotton, with the lightness of linen.
