Esquire Magazine Exclusively Recommends Nicholas Joseph Bespoke Suits
/We are honored and thrilled to be Esquire Magazine's only Chicago Bespoke Suit recommendation in the Fall/Winter 2014 issue.
After years of planning the perfect locally handmade bespoke suit, our Bespoke No. 10 line was introduced earlier this year and is fully handmade in Chicago by seasoned tailors with decades of experience. With top of line full canvas construction, hand sewn silk buttonholes, and luxurious Italian linings, these bespoke suits are a cut above the rest.
Our Bespoke process was designed to evoke old world hand tailoring, much like the Savile Row experience. The first fitting is conducted with the suit basted, or loosely sewn together, so that adjustments can be chalk marked. Once this is complete, our tailor adjusts the pattern and garment while finishing client appointed details, like button holes and pockets. This basting fitting helps ensure a true bespoke fit.
Standards design details include 4 interior jacket pockets, strategically placed darts, and working sleeve button holes, but since this is bespoke, customer appointed details are accommodated. The bespoke suit trousers boast a shirt gripper in the waistband to keep shirts tucked, have an extended tab closure, and are lined in the front to the knee. To remain true to its name, your bespoke suit is hand made in Chicago.
Our bespoke suits are priced from $2795 for a Super 130βs Italian wool fabric. We offer a wide variety of other fabric choices, including those from prestigious mills such as Vitale Barberis Canonico, Hardy Minnis, and Ermenegildo Zegna.
Our Sales Designer will help you select the appropriate color and pattern to compliment your features and wardrobe, style the garment, and take measurements at the initial appointment. In an estimated 4 weeks, your basted fitting will be conducted with any additional fittings required to perfect the garment. Once delivered, your pattern is kept on file for easy re-order of the locally made and perfect fitting garment - you need only select a fabric and appoint styling details.
