In this new Milennium, we live in a pragmatic world which has taken
Henry Ford's maxim of mass production to extremes.
though she might arguably claim a 'multi-art-talentedness' lacking in Kabbaz by offering to also hand-knit you a sweater. Each a creation of pride; no two ever quite alike. Every
creation is a child of painstaking labor. That's why your order is accompanied by detailed instructions
for proper laundering and pressing. Concern for these children does not stop at our workroom door
but continues long after they leave our shop. That's why, when you bring our shirt 'home' years
from now for new collar, new cuffs, and a bit of tender encouragement from Mom & Pop, the result will
be virtually a new shirt. That's why, some 60 years after his grandmother rendered her first shirting
design for Sulka, Alex still creates fewer than a dozen shirts each week. That's why, when you come
here for the first time, we'll fit you two, four, six times... whatever is necessary to attain the perfect
fit.
To quote Kabbaz, "The only client I wish to serve is a client for life. And that's why we offer the
simplest of guarantees: If it is not 'perfect', we shall make it so!"
On your first visit, we'll chat for a while in order that I might gain a proper sense of your needs. Then we'll discuss styling and fit while I take some 35 measures and notes.Before your place a subsequent order, I'd like to see you in the shirt you've found most pleasing. Fine cotton tends, over time, to shape and adapt itself to the wearer. It is only after that has been accomplished that I can make the final little nips and tucks to your permanent pattern. This, by the way, remains an ongoing process. Should more than four or five years pass between your actual visits to the shop, I'll most probably refuse to make any more shirts until I see you in a recent creation! After all, our only advertising is the answer you give to the question, "Where did you get that shirt?"
