english cut shirts in america...
[Solid collar patterns- made of wood- which are used in the design of the customer's personal paper pattern.]
I'm pleased to say that many of the first English Cut shirts have been delivered to their proud new owners. And as I expected, they are delighted. Nigel and everyone at Rayner & Sturges have done a sterling job.
It's nice for me to be able to offer my clients such a wonderful product, which I truly believe compliments my tailoring, and also helps a little in the support of British craftsmanship.
As you know, until now the English Cut shirts are only available to my bespoke suit clients. I know this has caused a lot of disappointment for people who would love to order shirts, but the cost of a suit is a little out of their reach.
This I can totally understand, however we did not do this for the creation of some exclusive club. It's simply that I can only truly look after so many bespoke suit customers at any given time.
I'm sorry that it appears that were making it difficult to buy something as "simple" as a shirt, but it's not just the shirt. It's also the experience and service you'll value and remember long after the shirt has been laundered and worn to death.
[Miss Lucy Adams, who assists me on my U.S. visits.]
To make the shirts more accessible, I'm delighted to announce that Lucy Adams will be again travelling with on my next US trip. And apart from the super job she does of keeping the English Cut tour on track, she will be measuring and looking after shirt customers who are not yet ready for one of our suits. As my existing customers will testify, apart from being one of the most charming young ladies you could ever meet, Lucy is extremely efficient and professional in her work, and will do a first class job of measuring and dealing with all the details of your shirt(s).
People who know me are fully aware of my faults, but one thing I don't do is take this business lightly. I have every confidence in Lucy and Rayner & Sturges. Therefore, should you wish to sample an English Cut shirt, our U.S. itinerary is here, and you can arrange a U.S. appointment with Lucy at englishcut@gmail.com
Thank you.
