They cost $70 a pair?

However, this is quite regrettable not to mention sad.

Add Crockett & Jones and Tricker's to the list.

Is Hardy Amies a corporate entity now? I know they used to offer a bespoke service in addition to their women's couture, suppliers to the Queen.

It's amazing that some of those firms last (and lasted) for so long.  There's a shirtmaking firm in NY that's been in business since 1938.
