Simone Abbarchi
A Florentine shirtmaker whose prices have made him the entry point to Italian bespoke for a lot of people.
Simone Abbarchi makes shirts in Florence to individual measurements at prices well below the Neapolitan and London houses. The service is closer to a very good made-to-measure than to full bespoke, which the maker does not obscure, and it travels widely.
Where the line is
This is a useful case for understanding the shirt trade's vocabulary. Measurements are taken individually, the shirt is made to them, adjustments follow on subsequent orders, but a paper pattern drafted from nothing and a trial shirt are not part of the standard service. That is made-to-measure at a high level, and it produces a shirt that fits most people better than anything they can buy off a shelf, for a fraction of bespoke money. Calling it what it is costs nothing and helps everyone.
How it works
Measurements are taken in person, in Florence or on the maker's travel schedule; a first shirt is made and adjustments are carried into subsequent orders. There is no trial shirt and no drafted paper pattern in the bespoke sense.
Turnaround is a few weeks and the price is a fraction of Neapolitan or London bespoke.
Why it matters as an example
This is a useful reference point for the whole shirt trade's vocabulary. What is offered here fits better than any ready-to-wear shirt and is not bespoke, and the maker says so.
A great many shops offering exactly this service call it bespoke. The accurate word costs nothing and tells the customer what they are buying.
The entry point, and why that matters
For a great many people this house is the first made-to-measure shirt they own, because the price makes the category approachable in a way that Jermyn Street and Naples do not. That is a real service: the gap between a good ready-made shirt and a shirt cut to your measurements is the largest single improvement available in menswear for the money.
The making is machine-based with hand finishing, which is what the price reflects and what it should be judged against.
