About SPIER & MACKAY
SPIER & MACKAY, makers of luxurious handmade dress shirts offer online and in-store both off-the-rack and custom dress shirts at an accessible cost. Every single shirt we make follows a traditional handmade process from the cutting of the cloth to the attaching of the buttons. Why does great fitting, high quality menswear cost so much? The truth is it doesn't have to. Bloated distribution models, unnecessary markups and greedy profit margins all lead to artificially inflated prices. Like you, we appreciate a great fit, subtle details and overall better quality of luxury garments, but can't justify their high cost. Our goal when we started SPIER & MACKAY was clear. Disrupt the broken, traditional menswear model and really deliver exceptional value and a great experience to our customers.
