We have covered many custom suit companies here on TPL, but one that always intrigued me specifically was Michael Andrews Bespoke. I had always heard good things about it, knew a few people who were quite happy (and looked phenomenal) in their clothes, and there are few shops in NYC that feel comfortable referring to themselves as true “bespoke”, so it was something I was keen to try, especially at what seemed to be quite reasonable prices for what you were getting…
Read moreReview: Senszio Custom Suiting
Somehow Senszio has flown beneath my radar for years. They are a custom suiting company based out of Hong Kong that has been in business for decades, and now continues as a family business. They do trunk shows throughout the year in the US — and are currently in the middle of one (September 19th, 2022) so reach out from their site if you would like to schedule an appointment with them! — and offer MTM services to their overseas clients. In India they offer full, true bespoke…
Read moreNatalino In Review
I am not sure exactly when Natalino came onto the scene, but I was intrigued from the very start. They make great, Italian-inspired menswear at quite affordable prices (both in general, and certainly for what you are getting). Their product offerings spans sweaters, trousers, and shirts, to full suits and sportcoats. I, of course, had to give them a try for myself…

Read moreSuitsupply Takes A Serious Step Into Custom: A Review Of Their Custom Made Suit Program
It is no secret that we are big fans of SuitSupply around these parts. Indeed, who in the modern menswear world isn’t a fan of SuitSupply? They are renown (at this point world-over) for offering exceptional quality for the price point, and are, hands down, one of, if not the single best, value for off-the-rack suiting. Whether you are looking for a first suit, or a 12th, you cannot go wrong with SuitSupply…
Read moreReview: Blank Label’s Custom Tailored Pants
Here we are, back once again with another review of online, MTM clothing. We have taken a look at Blank Label before, specifically their custom shirt offerings. While they have a clean website, nice fabric curation, and produce a quality garment, we found their fit inconsistent across multiple orders, perhaps the biggest flaw in their system…
