One of the most important parts of a custom suit is the fabric. We go deep on all things about selecting your fabric for that perfect custom suit.

In the retail world it can be an interesting thing sometimes, especially with fashion retail. Often times you are chasing two things: selling enough of your product to stay in business AND recognition and respect for what you do by the industry you are in (i.e. other fashion brands / publications etc...). I will be honest, the two don't necessarily go hand in hand, and the lines get even more blurred when you compare it on a national scale vs a regional/local scale. 

If you’ve been by the shop the past couple of weeks, you may have already met OMJ’s newest executive stylist, Cross. Cross joined us last month from Los Angeles and brings years of experience in both the fashion industry and fine suiting. While OMJ is known for great custom suiting, we also have been looking to expand further by offering a next level luxury suiting experience. Think, the finest fabric mills like Loro Piana and Zegna, made in Italy, made completely by hand and specialty fabrics (Vićuna, diamond chipped, gold stripes etc..). Our core offering will not change, and this new line won’t be for everyone, but we are thrilled to expand our capabilities and serve a broader niche. We can finally say we are truly one of the best brands doing custom suiting America!
