A fine leather garment is an investment. It is our core belief that it deserves to be better (and more personal) than the mass-produced, and extremely marked up “luxury” labels out there, where most of the client’s cost goes to hyper-marketing and real estate, rather than into the materials and skills used to create a garment.
A piece of fine leather clothing should speak to, and of, the wearer.
It should be a piece you love, and will come back to year after year. It should be expected to last and transcend the seasonal expiration date that is built into today’s exaggerated fashion cycle. The nature of leather is that of a second skin that will grow with you.
This is why our specialty is “Custom-Made” aka. “Bespoke”. One-of-a-kind garments created from start to finish, for one specific individual.
The creation of a bespoke garment can be a wonderfully collaborative process. Taking into account lifestyle, personal style and sartorial desires. The design can be as extravagant or as elegant as you’d like. Likewise the choice of leather, finishing and details.
True artisan craftsmanship, One pair of hands overseeing the complete process from start to finish. Personal attention, care and consideration is taken at every step of the process.
Having a bespoke garment made is a truly unique experience that results in a garment that becomes your second skin and will be a long lived and beloved element of your lifestyle.
MTO items are cut-to-order in our Standard size range. This is ideal if you find that Higher end RTW lines fit you well off the Rack.
Our Demi-Bespoke menswear Range allows for personalized Size and Fit adjustments to our standard styles. Instead of a completely new pattern being made for you, we use our standard sizes and cut with your required adjustments.
You can also customize leather and lining choices as well as certain details like interior pockets and hardware color.
MTO/Demi Bespoke is approx. 30% less than a fully bespoke Garment
(Available fit adjustments and special leathers will vary according to style/leather ad cost may vary depending on your choices)
Our Made-to-Order and Demi-Bespoke Pieces are Final Sale.
Custom-Made pieces are individually designed and made for a specific individual and are by definition one-of-a-kind.
Our Custom-Made prices are comparable to high end, mass-produced Luxury Labels, such as; Brunello Cucinelli, Balanciaga, Givenchy, Jitrois, Burberry, Balmain, The Row and YSL and often less since we do not do the traditional retail markup.
Instead of being subsumed by marketing costs, your investment goes directly into the finest materials, trims, hardware available and the skilled craftsmanship and careful personal attention taken on each garment.
Please See our Price Guide.

Absolutely.
Many of our clients live elsewhere in the US and Overseas. If you visit NYC city and let us know in advance we can arrange appointments for you during your visit.
If your visit is short we recommend beginning the custom-made process with initial consult via phone and email, and working with your tailor to take the measurements we need. This way your initial fitting garment will be ready for your visit.
If you are in the city for a week or more, and depending on the project, we can often schedule both the initial consult and first fitting into that window.
Long distance Custom-Made takes a little longer, but the results are the same. We always work with you personally via mail/email/zoom and phone. We’re available to work with you via mail, email and phone.

On average Made-to-Order items take between 1 – 8 weeks to make and ship. (You can find more specific time frames within each item description.)
Bespoke takes longer, although with proper planning and well-timed fittings we can often turn around a pair of pants in as little as 2 weeks if you see us in person. The average for pants, in-person is usually 4-6 weeks. In -person , a jacket can take 8-12 weeks.
Long-distance/Mail Order Custom Made takes longer.
As with all of our Custom work – each project’s time frame is at the mercy of client scheduling obligations happening in a timely fashion. Some planning may be involved if there is a specific deadline required.
We do provide hybrid services to our Long distance custom clientele who travel to NYC on occasion. Getting their measurements and initial consult completed at least 10-14 days before their initial visit and fulfilling 1-2 fittings in person while they are here. This speeds up the long distance process considerably.

Yes, we can work with client provided materials. So long as we approve their suitability for your specific project. We are happy to guide you in any purchase decisions.
Due to set-up and space limitations, we do not take on any 100% fabric based projects.
But we can incorporate a limited range of fabrics into our leather work. Wools, Denims, and stable textiles are best. We cannot accommodate any t-shirt type materials. Remember, leather is our specialty!!!
