Uniform Tailors

Our low cost uniform seems to be getting lower and lower quality all the time, in fact, it's complete junk. It has no fit or shape and doesn't seem to fit anyone properly. Our cousins in America seem to be spoiled for choice with Uniform tailors but I haven't been able to find anyone in Europe who has specific experience with Pilots uniform tailoring.

Does anyone know a tailor in EUROPE who makes bespoke pilot uniforms?

You don't need to go to the USA to get USA quality pilot uniforms.

These folks have been in business for a very long time, and have been making uniforms for me since 1968.
They have standard (and odd) sizes in stock and can send you one in any color/braid you desire.
It can then be altered locally, if needed.
They ship worldwide.

Yes 411A but they prefer to do the measuring and alterations themselves hence my emphasis on someone based in EUROPE.

Prefer, but not mandatory, I got measured by a reputable tailor on the East Coast and sent off the numbers to Tarpy, they sent back a uniform that needed no adjustment.
