Discover why custom made-to-measure shirts from Raymik Custom Tailor in Toronto are the perfect complement to your bespoke suit and professional wardrobe.
The Problem With Off-the-Rack Dress Shirts
If you have ever worn a dress shirt, you have experienced at least one of these frustrations: a collar that gaps, sleeves that are too short, a body that billows like a sail, or a shirt that untucks every time you raise your arm. Off-the-rack shirts are cut to fit a statistical average — and most bodies simply do not match that average.
A custom made-to-measure shirt in Toronto solves all of these problems permanently. At Raymik Custom Tailor, we have been creating bespoke shirts for Toronto professionals since 1996, and the transformation in how our clients look and feel is immediate and striking.
What We Measure for a Perfect Custom Shirt
Our master tailor takes precise measurements including:
- Collar size: Your exact neck measurement with correct ease — no more uncomfortable tightness or embarrassing gap.
- Sleeve length: From shoulder seam to wrist bone, ensuring perfect cuff placement beneath your jacket.
- Chest, waist and hip: Allowing the shirt to follow your body's contours without excess fabric.
- Shirt length and seat measurement: Ensuring the shirt stays tucked throughout the day.
- Shoulder width and back length: Critical for a clean line across the back.
Fabric and Detail Choices for Your Toronto Bespoke Shirt
Every detail of your custom shirt is chosen by you:
- Fabric: Two-ply poplin, royal oxford, end-on-end, herringbone, fine twill — from pure cotton to cotton-linen blends
- Collar style: Spread, semi-spread, button-down, Windsor, club collar and more
- Cuff style: Single, double (French), cocktail cuff
- Placket: Standard, hidden, fly front
- Monogram: Add your initials for a personal finishing touch
How Many Shirts Should You Commission?
Most Toronto clients start with 2–3 bespoke shirts. Once you experience the fit and quality, it becomes very difficult to go back to off-the-rack. Many of our long-term clients commission 6–10 shirts per year as the cornerstone of their professional wardrobe.
