Shirts cut to your collar, cuff and fit.
Made-to-measure shirts in fine Egyptian cotton and linen, hand-cut in Fisherman's Village and fitted at your hotel or villa, from 1,500 THB.
A shirt is the garment you wear closest to the skin, and the one a poor fit gives away first: a collar that gapes, a body that balloons, sleeves that swallow the wrist. We cut ours one at a time at the atelier in Fisherman's Village, Bophut, to your measurements and your choices alone. From a single shirt to a stack for the week, each one is built to sit clean under a jacket and feel easy on its own.
What goes into a made-to-measure shirt
A made-to-measure shirt starts from 1,500 THB and is drafted to you, not pulled off a rail in small, medium or large. We measure the neck, chest, waist, shoulder and arm, then set the fit you want, close and tapered, or relaxed for the heat. Nothing is fixed until you decide: the collar, the cuff, the placket, the number of buttons, a chest pocket or a clean front, even the stitch and the thread. The yoke is cut to your shoulders so the shirt sits square, the armhole is shaped for movement, and the tail is set long enough to stay tucked. Wear a first shirt, tell us what you would change, and we lock the pattern. Every shirt after that comes off the same block, so the fit is yours for good.
Collars, cuffs and the details that make it yours
The collar frames your face and sets the tone, so we cut it to suit you and the occasion: a classic point, a spread or cutaway for a tie and a fuller knot, a button-down for the weekend, or a soft band collar for warm evenings without a tie. The cuffs are yours too, a single button for everyday, an adjustable two-button, or a double cuff for links when you dress up. Beyond that, choose the placket, the buttons in mother-of-pearl or horn, a discreet contrast under the collar or inside the cuff, and a monogram if you like one. These are the details a shop-bought shirt never lets you set, and the ones that make a shirt read as yours across a room.
Cloth for the tropics
Koh Samui is hot and humid for most of the year, so cloth matters more here than it would in a cool climate. We stock fine Egyptian cotton, crisp poplin and textured oxford, breezy linen and cotton-linen blends that stay cool and dry through a long day. Whites and pale blues photograph well and go with everything, while end-on-end weaves, fine stripes and small checks add character without shouting. A higher thread count feels smooth and presses to a sharp finish, while linen relaxes into an easy, lived-in look that suits the island. We show you each cloth in daylight and tell you honestly how it wears, how much it wrinkles and how it lasts, so the shirt still looks right on its third wear and its thirtieth.
Fitted here, ready fast, and by the stack
You do not need to plan your holiday around us. Visit the atelier in Fisherman's Village, or we bring the cloth books to your hotel or villa anywhere on Koh Samui and measure you there. A made-to-measure shirt can be ready from 24 hours, and several shirts in only a little longer, pressed and delivered to your door before you fly out. Many guests order a stack in one sitting, a few whites and blues for work and a linen or two for off-duty, so a week of shirts is sorted at once. We keep your pattern and measurements on file, so once you are home you can reorder by message and we ship the same fit to you. Pickup and delivery on the island cost you nothing.
Frequently asked questions
A made-to-measure shirt starts from 1,500 THB, and the final price depends on the cloth you choose, since a fine Egyptian cotton sits above a simple poplin. We agree the price with you before we cut, with no surprises, and orders of several shirts are quoted together. Ask us on WhatsApp for a quote.
A single shirt can be ready from 24 hours, depending on the cloth and how busy the atelier is. A larger order takes a little longer, but most stacks are finished within a few days and delivered to your hotel before you leave.
Yes, all of it. The collar, cuff, placket, buttons, monogram, fit and cloth are your choices, and we guide you on what works for the occasion and the climate. That freedom is the whole point of a made-to-measure shirt.
Yes, we cut women's shirts and blouses to measure as well. And because we keep your pattern and measurements on file, you can reorder from home by message once you know the fit is right, and we ship the same shirt to you.
