But what makes a bespoke suit truly unique, and where exactly can you buy these world’s best custom made suits? If you’re ready to dish out the cash and put on a little class, we’ve found three of the U.S.’s most exclusive shops that tailor the finest bespoke suits that money can buy.

The Oxxford Store, New Yorkr
Founded in 1916 by Jacob and Louis Weinberg “with a mission to establish the standard by which all men’s tailored clothing is judged,” The Oxxford Store produces the highest quality custom made and precisely tailored bespoke suits.

The Oxxford Store claims to be the only shop left in America that tailors suits by hand. Some of the world’s most historically profound men could not deny the elegance of an Oxxford bespoke suit—Walt Disney, Clark Gable and Joe DiMaggio all chose the fine quality of an Oxxford custom tailored, bespoke suit.

Their website even offers a step by step manual, titled Anatomy of a Suit, describing in precise detail how they handcraft each of their custom made bespoke suits—from drafting a traditional custom suit patter, all the way to matching the stripes and plaids.

Take careful note: fine quality and technical detail does not come easy. Prices for a carefully crafted, fine tailored, bespoke suit reach up to almost $5000 for a full custom made suit.
