ABRAHAMS: AN ICONIC DUBLIN TAILORING HOUSE

A Dublin institution, Abrahams is one of Ireland’s pre-eminent menswear stores with a rich heritage in bespoke and made-to-measure tailoring. The firm has been the preferred tailor to many of Dublin’s best-dressed professionals. Abraham’s has been serving a distinguished clientele since founded by the popular Maurice Abrahams in the sixties. Indeed, to this day, the store is an essential resource on sartorial matters with an excellent and friendly staff who are just as happy to advise on bespoke choices as they are to walk customers through their ready to wear ranges. The firm has established a particular reputation as a go-to venue for Grooms-to-be and wedding parties.

LAIRD HATTERS

A relatively new arrival to the gentlemen’s hatters scene, Laird was founded in 2009 and has branches in London, Oxford and Cambridge. The house focuses on producing high quality products for discerning, fashion and style conscious customers who seek hard-wearing apparel. This ethos has been driven forward by the launch of the brand’s own range of clothing, under the Laird Utility label, which includes countrywear and workwear pieces made to the same quality and standards as their hats. Their luxurious, traditional hat boxes have become collectables in their own right.

KENNEDY & MCSHARRY

Ireland’s premier gentlemen’s hatter and the first choice for ties for Dublin’s better dressed men, Kennedy & McSharry has been a feature on Dublin’s sartorial landscape since 1890. The firm has expanded its offer over the years to include a range of accessories and apparel marking them as the city’s preferred outfitter.
