STOVEL&MASON: A Tailored Experience in Ginza
The renowned British suit brand, STOVEL&MASON, established in 1818 on Savile Row, London, is set to open its first store in Japan. This exclusive bespoke suit shop, located in the heart of Ginza, promises to deliver a unique blend of tradition and modern craftsmanship, catering to today’s business professionals.
Tradition Meets Modern Craftsmanship
With a history spanning over 200 years, STOVEL&MASON has provided high-quality tailoring, cherished by royals, politicians, and celebrities alike. This iconic brand aims to preserve its legacy by offering finely crafted suits that embody the very spirit of British tailoring. The Ginza branch will integrate traditional methods with local Japanese craftsmanship, resulting in tailored suits that are both personal and sophisticated.
The store will operate on a reservation-only basis, ensuring that each customer receives dedicated attention and a personalized experience. This approach reflects the brand’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Interested individuals can easily book an appointment through their official reservation page.
Discover the Elegance of Bespoke Tailoring
The Ginza store is brilliantly designed to evoke the charm of London. Its elegant British-style interior creates a tranquil environment where clients can engage with the tailoring process. Shoppers will have access to an extensive selection of approximately 1,000 suit fabrics, including luxurious New Zealand Merino wool from REDA and vibrant materials from VITALE BARBERIS CANONICO. These fabrics are known for their functionality and exquisite feel, allowing customers to select based on personal style and occasion.
For buttons, clients can choose from about 50 designs, including options made from buffalo horn, nut, and metal, ensuring that every detail matches their unique preferences.
Labels Tailored to Perfection
STOVEL&MASON offers three label designs for their suits: Basic Label, Silver Label, and Gold Label. The Ginza location will focus on the premium Gold Label, tailored in partnership with the renowned Tahara Concert Co. This label is meticulously crafted, with adjustments available for length, sleeve size, body width, shoulder width, and more, ensuring that suits fit perfectly.
In addition to suits, customers can choose from a wide range of high-quality shirts made from imported fabrics, which include options from the prestigious British brand THOMAS MASON and one of Italy’s top brands, ALBINI. The store features approximately 350 shirt fabric varieties, integrating both imported and domestically sourced materials (such as fine 80 to 100 count threads).
Superior Japanese Craftsmanship
What sets the Ginza flagship apart is its commitment to traditional Japanese tailoring techniques, particularly the full canvassing method undertaken by the esteemed Tahara Concert Co. This technique not only enhances the suit's structure and shape retention but also aims for superior comfort and aesthetic appeal. Through various intricate processes, which may exceed hundreds of steps, STOVEL&MASON ensures that its suits are crafted with attention to detail and enduring quality, resisting the mass production trend.
Customer-Centric Engagement
STOVEL&MASON invites clients to explore the intricacies of bespoke tailoring in their serene Ginza location, where every suit tells a story. Their customer service continues beyond the purchase, with an emphasis on nurturing the relationship with clients through customizations and consultations about fabrics and styles.
