About Us | Grayman & Company - Bespoke Tailoring

FORM IS FUNCTION

And innovation exists so that one does not need to compromise the other.

We conceive our pieces as artefacts of style and then craft them with the capability to adapt to the unique use-cases that our clients may require from a piece of tactical kit.

ELEGANCE IS DECEPTION

A soft profile is better than a low profile. Purposeful obfuscation is uncanny to us. We are primed by nature to seek camouflaged danger. But no one expects the man in tortoise-shell glasses and a floral pocket square to present and fire at an assailant.

TIMELESSNESS IS UBIQUITY

And ubiquity belong everywhere. Trends are distinctive and easily identified in time and space. They belong some times in some places and stand out in others. Our pieces are cut with a quiet and versatile sophistication to belong anywhere, anytime.

We trace our lineage as tailors

right back to the golden age of craftsmanship as practiced in the tailoring shops of pre-WWII Shanghai. Adventuring tailors from America, Europe and London’s Savile Row trained local apprentices hungry to learn. Together they tailored suits for spies, smugglers, officers and diplomats in a city teetering on the brink of war.

Build Your Suit

AND WE TAKE THAT HERITAGE SERIOUSLY

Our suits are made half-canvassed with a sewn ‘floating’ chestpiece. Our streamlined-bespoke process allows our tailors’ discriminating eyes to select every detail to best complement their client.

Under the plane trees of Shanghai’s French Concession, they finish buttonholes, barchetta pockets and other details by hand. From start to finish, only four pairs of hands will ever touch your garment.

WHAT SETS OUR SUIT APART

is even more than its sartorial quality. Our optional features, available a la carte, are subtle, functional, and versatile. Designed to adapt to a range of uses, the pockets, gussets and armoured fabrics can be both a critical tactical advantage and an everyday convenience.
