Welcome to hamilton1883.com. Since 1883 our family has been crafting America’s finest shirts. Each is made in our Houston workshop where we oversee all aspects of design and construction. Every Hamilton shirt is hand cut according to a paper pattern using only Italian and Swiss fabrics. Passed down through four generations of family, Hamilton shirts are more than our product, they're our legacy.

Some might say we’re stuck in our ways—but they’d be wrong to say we’re stuck in the past. While we’ll never compromise on our exacting ethos—that clothes should fit, that fabrics should breathe, and that men should look like, well, men—we’re always looking to innovate for our customers. Long known for our bespoke custom dress shirts, we more recently introduced Hamilton 1883, a line of ready-to-wear shirts. The line references the year of our founding—and recasts some of our more historic designs in timeless, new forms. Because, sometimes, charging ahead into the future is the best way to honor your past. Like all Hamilton shirts, 1883 shirts are hand cut and sewn in our Houston workshop. To create a more relaxed feel for 1883, we use less interlinings and pre-wash the shirts. All 1883 shirts are cut trim and designed to be worn tucked in or out.

1883 isn’t the only thing that’s new at Hamilton. In addition to our bespoke shirts, we are now also offering made-to-measure custom shirts online. The primary difference between bespoke and made-to-measure is the level of custom fit. Made-to-measure shirts are available online in any combination of collar size, body size and sleeve length, while bespoke shirts are cut according to a unique, personal pattern that is drafted after a fitting at a retailer.

Thank you for visiting our website. You can keep up with what’s happening at Hamilton on our blog, Twitter or Facebook. We hope that you will also visit us in person at our Houston workshop or during one of our many trunk shows at retailers across the country. Please contact us by phone 713-264-2800 or e-mail info@hamiltonshirts.com if we can be of service in any way.

David and Kelly Hamilton
