Good old England, a cup of tea and God save the Queen. London was the center of commerce and culture when her grip on the colonies was still strong. This thriving economy birthed the modern gentleman, with a commitment to pomp and style, the manner of knights chivalrous and a London tailored suit. It is no surprise that now, in the year of 2017, if you want to be a proper gentleman there is no better place to outfit yourself.

A Sturdy Pair of Shoes

Keeping Dry
Unlike their wit, Londoners are rarely dry. Your outfit is only as stylish as your least fashionable item, so why cover your London tailored suit with a cheap convenient store umbrella? James Smith & Sons will outfit you with a personalized umbrella. Measured for your exact height and with a fabric of your choosing. Not only will it serve to better guard you against the rain, it will look fantastic open, or closed. Find them on Oxford street, London.

Now you are a proper, dapper gentleman!
