They’re also a shop that puts emphasis on seasonal materials, so if you’re searching for short-sleeved linen/madras shirts this summer, look no further. And when winter rolls around, check out their cashmere jumper selection – they honestly can’t be beaten.

Maybe avoid: the quality of their denim isn’t ideal and, due to mass production, their cut of clothing can tend to be a bit boxy at the sides. But that’s nothing a tailor can’t fix, and for about a quarter of the price of most designers, you’re still saving.

What they do best: tailoring, shirts, ties and shoes. Their suits always come with the option of a three-piece, and are available in a range of seasonal fabrics and traditionally British business colors.

They also run regular offers, such as four shirts for £100, and their extra slim fit is about as close to how I like my shirts to fit outside of made to measure. Plus they do gingham dress shirts in a wide variety of colors, which is totally my jam.

Whilst the shoes aren’t quite up there with Russell & Bromley, Church or Grenson, the quality of leather for the price is just too good to pass up. The place is nearly always in some sort of sale, so even if you have to wait a few months for that particular item to drop, you’ll be able to pick up plenty of key formal pieces without breaking the bank.
