Own a store? Interested in seeing Hamilton 1883 in NYC during the January menswear market? We are interested in seeing you.

Enlarging our distribution for the first time since our launch, we’ll be setting up at Project (Hamilton Shirts very first trade show) on January 16th – 18th where we’d be more than happy to show you our new line of fall & winter 2012 Hamilton 1883.

Inspired by the sporting life, our graphic and sharp fall/winter offerings are based on our classic best sellers updated in new stylish patterns, colors, and fabrications. Created and manufactured entirely in our Houston workshop, our line of 1883 shirts are made with the same quality and care as our custom bespoke. Hand-cut fabrics from Italian and Japanese mills such as Albini and Thomas Mason are combined with non-fused soft interfacing and real mother of pearl buttons. The 1883 line of shirts are some of the finest ready-to-wear shirts in the market. Come see for yourself.

Conveniently located at 82 Mercer Street, NYC from 9am – 6pm, in Booth 627, please contact us at Hamilton Shirts for an appointment to meet with owners and representatives David & Kelly Hamilton.

Last but not least…the ACME Plaid arrives into our online store – our final 1883 introduction for the fall winter 2011 season. Originally inspired by Pacific Northwest style, the updated coloration of this burgundy pattern is a modern take on a classic ‘royal stewart’ plaid. Black, loden, gold, and white contrast beautifully with the dark red – a red similar to the color of your favorite merlot.

Perfect to wear during the holidays, the shirt looks great worn with black, dark greens, or even khaki. The soft Italian cotton has a super crisp hand that gets better and better the more you wear it, even more so after a couple washings. I speak from experience…the ACME shirt comes with a personal endorsement – mine! This favorite style has become my most worn shirt of the season- I’ve been happily wearing the prototype sample since September!

Esquire asks “Start with your shirt, then choose your tie” or is it “Start with your tie and choose your shirt”?  They claim that either method works…but for us choosing the shirt (or shirts!) first ALWAYS works best.

I know..we haven’t even celebrated Thanksgiving yet and we are already talking about holiday shopping.

Our December issues of Instyle arrived and we were lucky enough to be included in their fantastic and thoughtful 2011 Gift Guide round up. Taking a look at various menswear custom shirt-makers, Hamilton might be the only option whose shirts are solely made in the U.S.A.. Procrastinators should also take note, Hamilton has the shortest lead time of two weeks – from initial order to final product.

Plan ahead accordingly, the Houston workshop holiday clock is ticking. Another possibility would be to contact us for a Hamilton Shirt gift certificate. This option would provide your lucky recipient with the full-fledged bespoke experience with our online custom shirt-builder or in person here at our Houston store – right up until the last minute.
