Sustainable labor, fair wages, quality craftsmanship, and long-term professional partnerships are what go on behind the scene of your made-to-measure suit. 

As a custom suiting house, you may notice that our pricing is on the higher-end compared to off-the-rack suiting and even other made-to-measure companies. Our pricing is reflective of the time, cost, materials & fabric, labor, and wages involved in the construction of a custom suit. The physical design of a made-to-measure suit at Sew Generously involves two unique parts. The first is with our manufacturer and the second is with our in-house tailoring team. 

We partner with a manufacturer overseas that we’ve had a longstanding professional relationship with. Through a “customer-to-manufacturer” model, the middleman is cut out which permits for the custom-made-to-measure suits to be made with a partner factory  with employees paid wages 20 percent higher than the industry average. The factory is also closed for two one-week periods for employee holidays throughout the year, as well as several other shorter holidays. Their employees receive company matching retirement, health coverage, vacations, and paid maternity leave. David, owner and lead bespoke tailor here at Sew Generously, has visited in-person to see firsthand the environment where your suit is being made. 

After your suit is delivered to our shop, we are able to hone fit with our team of in-house fitters and tailors in Seattle. Our team is paid a living wage that is reflective of their skill, education, and experience. As a small company, we’ve also been able to coordinate fit issues with our designers, tailors, and our manufacturer. The result means we are able to continuously refine our process, ensuring excellent fit for every client. We pride ourselves on providing transparency into every part of how your suit is made.
