Serving Custom Tailors and Clothiers

 

Why Custom? We are asked that question all the time. Here is the answer:

"It is just the little difference between the good and the best that makes the difference between the artist and the artisan. It is just the little touches after the average man would quit that makes the master's fame. " ~
Orison Swett Marden

 

Let’s face it, life is as busy as it is good, so having a Custom Clothier in a shop around the corner, or visiting your office or home is a huge time saver. The Custom Tailors and Designers Association of America has proudly served its members and their clients for over 125 years. In so doing, we have helped train hundreds of artisans, masters of the cloth, if you will. We are an association of true Bench Tailors, Custom Clothiers, and Retailers that also provide Custom Clothing in their retail stores.

 

If you are a client, then you already “get it”, and if you are considering becoming a client, you will understand the difference the minute you slip on a superbly made jacket with subtle styling that suits your personality, style and life.


  • Impeccable Style
  • Classic Tailoring
  • Quality Construction
  • Personal and Individual Service
  • Limitless Choice
  • These are just a few more reasons to choose Custom Clothing.
