THE TAILORED MAN AT TYSONS

Custom tailoring for those who value precision, discretion, and long-term craftsmanship

Established 1969

At The Tailored Man, custom clothing begins with a relationship – not a measurement chart. Since 1969, we’ve worked with professionals who expect their clothing to fit not only their bodies, but their lives. Our approach is personal and intentionally unhurried. We take the time to understand posture, proportion, lifestyle, and intent – because exceptional fit is as much judgment as it is measurement.

We maintain longstanding relationships with the world’s most respected fabric mills – Loro Piana, Holland & Sherry, Ermenegildo Zegna, Scabal, Dormeuil, Drago, Vitale Barberis Canonico, and others – for depth of choice without overwhelming the process.

The result is clothing that feels considered, confident, and unmistakably yours.

The Tailored Man

“If you don’t have Brett assisting you with your suits or jackets, don’t bother even leaving the house. If ‘distinctive’, ‘refined’, or particularly particular could describe your style, you can’t go wrong here. He has a great eye and is incredibly responsive and attentive to detail.”

A Client’s Words

“I’ve tried made-to-measure from California to New York - this is the best suit I’ve ever had made.”

“You’re working with someone who genuinely understands classic menswear, tailoring, and proportion, and who has an excellent tailor on the premises. That combination is incredibly rare. This time, the suit arrived exactly as I wanted it - I didn’t need a single alteration. That has never happened to me before. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about making the best possible garment, not just making a sale, I recommend him without hesitation.”
