Men’s Bespoke
Welcome to City Tailors services
Bespoke & Made-to-Measure Shirts
Shirts that sit cleanly and stay comfortable all day
Most off-the-peg shirts fit one area and compromise everywhere else – the collar is tight, sleeves are too long, or the body balloons when tucked in.
Our made-to-measure and bespoke shirts are built to your measurements so they sit neatly under a jacket, move comfortably, and feel right at the collar and cuffs.
Made-to-Measure: a sharper fit with fewer compromises
We start from a proven shirt block and adjust it to your shoulder slope, chest, waist, sleeve length and cuff position.
It’s ideal for clients who want a consistently good fit for work shirts, wedding shirts, or a rotation of smart-casual options.
True Bespoke: drafted from scratch when details matter
If you have very specific requirements (posture challenges, unusual proportions, or a unique design idea), we can draft a bespoke pattern from scratch and refine it through fittings.
Personal details you can choose
- Collar styles (classic, cutaway, button-down and more)
- Cuffs (single, double/French cuffs, cocktail cuffs)
- Fit and shaping (clean, tailored, or relaxed)
- Placket and front styling, pocket options
- Buttons, contrast details, and optional monogramming
Typical starting prices
Starting prices include fabric from our standard ranges. Premium cloths (luxury cottons, heavier winter shirtings, speciality weaves) are quoted after fabric selection.
