Until you have had the pleasure of wearing a custom made shirt, you may think that all shirts are created equal. But that is simply not the truth.

Shirts that are purchased “off the rack” are made for the masses. Because they are designed to fit a wide range of people, they do not fit most people particularly well. Oh yes, sometimes you’ll find one that is a pretty good fit. But when you go back to buy more, they are all gone, and you are stuck with whatever is available.

The key to the perfect fit in a shirt is in the measurements. That’s why when you order a custom made shirt from Alan David NYC you will be measured by a master shirt maker. They don’t just measure your collar and sleeve length. They take a comprehensive series of measurements before they even begin the shirt making process.

At Alan David, they realize that exact shirt measurements will result in the perfect fit. Which is why, measuring is the first part of the process, even before selecting the fabric.

Once the shirt measurements are taken and the fabric selected, your shirt will be created in Alan David’s local workshop. Your shirt will be hand cut and expertly sewn, and finished in 15-18 business days after you order it. And once you receive your unique, custom made shirt, you’ll never want to wear off the rack again.
