Has anyone tried them before? Any reviews of product quality and fit, as well as service?

Will probably be sending them a bespoke shirt to copy, so will not be measured in person, but I suppose with polo shirts the fit shouldn't be too difficult to pin down.

I see that none of our eminent membership are clothed in bespoke polos...

The cloth they offer is a Loro Piana 60/2 pique cotton, which seems to be exclusive to them, hence the USP.

I'm surprised the fit was unsatisfactory - even my RTW Lacoste polos fit pretty much as well as one would expect.

If there were some way to get hold of the fabric, perhaps a pique or jersey uncanvassed sportcoat would be interesting...

I have a couple of Polosophy polo's. The first one was terrible. The second one was good, because they changed tailor in the mean time. That was also the reason for a second try. It's not bespoke, it's made-to-measure by the way.

I can't appreciate the concept of a bespoke polo shirt. Polo shirts are inherently casual, sporty things with a loose tolerance for fit. It's really just one step away from a bespoke t-shirt.
