“I have been wearing Cole Haan for decades and must have half a dozen pair of Cole Haan shoes in my closet,” explains Ledbury Co-Founder & CEO, Paul Trible. “Two years after we launched Ledbury, we noticed that Cole Haan’s senior leadership were buying our shirts. It seemed natural to reach out and try to do something together. It was an easy decision to move forward and a made-to-measure pop-up shop made perfect sense.”

It’s no secret that in recent years men have taken a greater interest in their clothing and, by extension, its fit. “All of a sudden, you have a large segment of male customers who know what they want to wear and are willing to engage in the selection process. And for that fashion-conscious male shopper, fit is the number one priority followed by convenience and service.”

The level of customization includes up to 20 measurements, collar, cuff, button and monogramming options–which, obviously you won’t want to say no to. There’s also over 750 Thomas Mason fabrics to choose from.

“I think collaborations work best when there is an mutual admiration for everyone involved. We really respect, enjoy and wear each other’s brands,” says Trible. “That extends from the heads of both companies, to the staff and customers.

Prices start at $185. Made-to-measure services will be available by appointment only, which can be booked via customshirting@ledbury.com

Additionally, Ledbury’s summer ready-to-wear shirts and sport coats will debut here before becoming available online on May 5th.

For the brand Paraboot, the Micheal Derby shoe is only one of the most iconic designs in their rotation. Established over 115 years ago, Paraboot has become an understated go-to brand and the Micheal shoe is their star.

Both sophisticated brands have joined forces to refresh the beloved Micheal Derby shoe in a way only they can.

There is Beauty in the Bleak for Private White V.C.
Celebrate the gray weather of Manchester

Legendary English artist L.S. Lowry had a particularly bleak outlook on his home country of England. While living and creating in Manchester, he watched men hurry home from work, hunched over to hide from the weather. While he continued to paint his vision of England, it became the center of his work. Private White V.C. is named after a World War I veteran awarded the Victoria Cross in 1917. They are known for their iconic outerwear, such as The Manchester Peacoat and The Ventile Mac. Their fall collection is a cross between these two English legends and pays homage to one of the darker aspects of Manchester—the Private White V.C. The Lowry Collection focuses on the drearier weather of the English city and finds beauty in the bleak by using the inspiration of Lowry's vision, the style, and the palette of the time.
Finding Beauty in the Bleak

“I’ve a one-track mind, sir. Poverty and gloom. Never a joyous picture of mine you’ll see. Always gloom. I never do a jolly picture.” These words from the artist himself show the image he has of his hometown of Manchester, England. And while it may sound depressing, the dreary part of the city is actually part of its charm. It offers a fantastic opportunity to wear stellar outerwear and seasonal offerings from Private White V.C. Some of the highlights include the Doleskin Revere Field Jacket, The Norfolk Walking Jacket, and the Casual Wax Jacket. Some of the knitwear worth checking out are Open Collar Cashmere Jumper and The Cashmere Submariner Rollneck.
