WHO ARE WE?
We are Manchester based designers of completely unique and high-quality men’s dress shirts. Available exclusively online (with one or two exceptions), we aim to help our customers stand out from the crowd. That may be as simple as sporting an interesting collar and cuff lining on a beautifully made white shirt. Or it may be as bold and brash as a neon impression of real brain waves rendered on the entire body of the shirt.
From the board room to the bar (we don’t recommend doing it the other way around), we’ve got amazing shirts for every occasion.
UNIQUE BRITISH DESIGN
We figure most men follow the crowd, but a few forge their own path. We set out to make shirts for the few. For the men who walk to their own beat.
We have our own utterly unique take on design.We don’t do stripes or checks (regrettably, it would make life much easier). Instead we take our inspiration from the world around us. Be it freedom of speech, the endless march of time, or barbed wire fencing, our shirts all tell a story. And you’ve got to figure that everyone loves a story.
Ultimately, we demand just one thing of ourselves, that every shirt we make is truly original.
WE MAKE SUPERB SHIRTS
Average shirts look great on a hanger, but age rapidly once they've been washed a couple of times. A great shirt is an investment, one that still looks excellent years after it’s purchased. Only a very well made shirt can pull this off.
We chose to focus our efforts and only make shirts. And we're perfectionists. We looked at over two thousand fabrics from eight different countries before finding one good enough. We obsess over stitch counts, agonise over buttons, and re-designed our collar shape fifty three times before we were truly happy.
We then submit our shirts to the ultimate test: we wear them ourselves. Ross holds the record, he once spent four days in one shirt at Glastonbury. And, once washed (vigorously), it came back as good as new.

ETHICAL FASHION
Fashion has an appalling reputation for exploiting its workers. Garments are often made in crowded, unsafe factories. And the industry has been repeatedly shamed for the use of child labour. Cheap fashion comes at a very high price for the people who make it.
All of our shirts are made in safe, ethical environments. In Turkey, we work with a reputable and experienced factory that ensures their workers are treated with respect, are well trained and paid proper wages. And we've minimised to near zero our use of plastic and non-recyclable materials.
TAKING CUSTOMERS SERIOUSLY
Most companies boast about the quality of their client service, right up to the point they put you on death hold to listen to Vivaldi. It drives you nuts, and trust us, it drives us nuts as well. So we decided to do something remarkably simple: to promise good client service, and then actually deliver it. We take our customers very seriously. We know you have a choice. If you have a problem, or a question, don't hesitate to call us. Our phone number is listed at the top of the "Contact Us" page and we'd love to hear from you. And if it's a problem you're calling us about, we promise to sort it out...
