WHICH DO YOU PREFER?

CLOTHES CUT WITH A TAILOR’S SHEARS QR WITH HACKSAWS?

In the large clothing factories where many Hamilton Suits are made, suits are sliced out with an electric hacksaw, dozens at a time—in the making, quality is sacrificed to speed and everyone works under pressure to make the Suit as fast and as cheap as possible. Suits made by this method cannol be expected to last or look as well as suits cut by hand by an expert cutter, made by a skilled, craftsman tailor, tried on by an expert fitter, and shaped to the exact measurements of a customer before the suit is finished.

Nowadays some sellers of cheap clothes who are without technical training are forever trying to convince the public that they are tailors or the Suits they sell are “as good as tailormade.’’ This of course is an admission that the genuine tailor-made is better. No man of balanced judgment expects to buy a tailor-made suit, at a factorymade price- He realises there is no philanthropy in business. Are you interested in good clothes?
