A few words about brand- Son Of A Tailor makes unique, tailored and customized t-shirts for every customer. Their T-Shirts can be fitted, loose or somewhere in between depending on your preference. Their goal is to make their website as easy to use as possible, and to provide the best-fitting t-shirts and basics for every man's wardrobe. I've never come across a tailored t-shirt shop before. Sure, I have used tailored dress shirt services, but never for a t-shirt, but since it is such a basic, essential item in a guy's wardrobe, it makes perfect sense to get something perfectly fitted!
So how does this work? You simply go on their design platform and select the material of the shirt. They have merino wool and cotton, and various weights of fabric, which would vary the thickness and texture of the t-shirt. You then choose the colour, enter your measurements in a few simple steps and voila- the automatic sizing calculates the dimensions of the perfectly fitting shirt!
I was curious enough to order 2 shirts for Valentines Day because I wanted to ramp up my boyfriend's wardrobe. I'm sure he'll love the White and Dark Blue t-shirts that I've chosen for him in a slim-fit. I wanted to try a light and dark shirt to contrast the effect and quality.
The first t-shirt that I received was the White Cotton t-shirt in a heavy weight fabric. I didn't want it to be transparent like other tees that I find on the high street, because the see-through look isn't attractive. I'm pleased to say that this t-shirt looks immaculate and perfectly tailored to my boyfriend's body- it is wider on the shoulders and narrows down at the waist. One thing about men's t-shirts is that the waist area is always either too loose or too tight, and it's hard to find that perfect fit!
However, with Son Of A Tailor's white tee, I think it pretty much hits the spot. It is really well-made and stitched perfectly, and feels super solid on my hands. Best of all, it feels ultra smooth and crisp, and reflects the high quality workmanship and manufacturing.
The second t-shirt I ordered was the Navy merino wool tee- now, I've never really known what a merino wool t-shirt feels like, but I have to say that once I saw this t-shirt, I'm never going back to cotton! It was luxurious, finely knitted and just beautiful. I think this t-shirt would be a perfect gift for those who live in colder places.
The tailoring was spot on and again fits perfectly, and the sleeves were just about right. I love how you can customise the sleeve design and pockets too, and I chose to make a roll sleeve to give the tee a more hipster feel. Son Of A Tailor also offers the merino t-shirt in a dark grey colour, which is also fantastic.
As to the quality, again everything was perfect and brilliant. Honestly, the price of the t-shirt is not cheap, but I got every penny of the price back because the shirt fits perfectly. Son Of A Tailor also has a perfect fit guarantee so you can be sure that they'll get you that perfect fit if anything goes wrong!
Lastly, I just want to talk a little about the price. Son Of A Tailor's t-shirts are definitely in the mid-range of things, and they are more expensive than the normal tees you can buy on the high street. However, I think that their quality and bespoke, tailoring process adds much value to the shirts, and getting the perfect fit is really important for men. In fact, I'm sure your boyfriend or husband will thank you for getting them a perfectly fitting t-shirt for everyday use!
So girls, don't forget to check out Son Of A Tailor's gift cards which will allow your significant other or friend to do the customisation himself! They are beautifully wrapped in a box, and comes with a handy tape measurer so that your man can get the perfect customized tee in no time!
Son Of A Tailor is literally the perfect gift idea for any occasion! Don't forget to visit their website and give it a go!
