Christmas Holiday Dates 2024

Christmas tends to quieten down for us as smidge so it is the perfect time for us to get some much-needed rest in. We are not your typical retail set-up and don’t indulge in sales and turning over of old stock so it makes sense to align our holidays with the majority of the UK.

We will break up this Saturday the 21st and return to work on Tuesday the 7th of January.

New Fabrics - Loro Piana, Dugdale Bros, Drago ...

Every season we introduce new bunches from our favourite merchants and continually we seek new and exciting fabrics to bolster our already extensive offering. Within the last few weeks, we have received a lot of exquisite cloth from Dugdale Bros, Loro Piana, Drago and others.

Some are updates on classic collections, such as Holland and Sherry’s perennial suiting “Crispaire”, Dugdale Bros tropical wool “New Fine Worsted” and Loro Piana’s timeless classic “Jackets and Trousers.”

Summer Production Holiday in Portugal

As usual, our production team in Portugal take a summer holiday in August and as such our production ceases for a short time. This is pretty typical across Europe and something I wish we adopted more. It would be lovely if the whole country were off at the same time.

Meet Ruben, The New Face

Meet Ruben, the new face in our Birmingham Suite. Ruben joined us around 4 weeks ago and will be in the suite on Fridays and Saturdays. He’s a ball of energy and passion for tailoring and I’m sure you’re all going to love him to death.

Maternity Leave - 2 Week Shutdown

As most people will be aware, myself and the better half are expecting twin girls very soon. As they are twins we get to choose an elected cesarian and therefore the due date, which does help plan somewhat.

This is something I’m keen to fully enjoy (or endure, i’m not sure which)

THE INAUGURAL WOOL & WINE - Christmas Drinks

We opened the doors of Colmore Tailors to a discerning bunch of sartorial gents and treated them to a festive evening of networking, tailoring, and wine tasting.

It turns out that Colmore Tailors is not alone in its love of Wool & Wine. It seemed only natural for us to bring the two together...

The Classic Blouson Launches

The Classic Blouson is the classic jacket style that every man with a finely tuned sartorial sense should own.

By all means, the blouson is a reverent celebration of modern-classic styling – the epitome of cool and retro, and although it was adopted with casual intent, it radiates a simplicity and elegance that is powerfully understated. It pairs as effortlessly with flannel as it does with denim.
