Hemingwaytailors Reviews 

I got my first made to measure suit from Hemingway and I have to say the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. I looked at a couple of tailors and chose Hemingway after Toby made me welcome, talked me through the process with not just knowledge but sense; he was not going to let me make a terrible style decision! Four weeks after measurements and specifications and the suit arrived, fitting perfectly. I feel like a million bucks in this thing. Thank you to Toby and to Joanne, great service from both and a beautiful garment.

Toby has fitted me with suits for many years. They are a great fit but my weight changes. Over time of course it goes up but sometimes I lose weight and I have the joy of wearing them again.

My daughter got married last year but like a fool I didn't contact him. I think covid had muddled my brain. So I bought a suit locally and had it "adjusted" by a local tailor. Not a great look. And then a few months ago I e mailed him and he called me within a few hours. Hurrah all was well and so was he. Same expertise and a smile. It comes naturally to him.

He made a cracking suit for me and had it sent to me on time for me to host afternoon tea for a small group to go to Claridges. That way I looked almost as smart as the others. Certainly as good as the waiters.

I confess to be from Yorkshire as well. It doesn't mean that he speaks to me somedays with an accent from Barnsley and the next day the dialect of someone from north Yorkshire. He may be able to do that, I'm not sure. But it means he does simple things very well and gives me good value. All the advice you need from buttons, linings, pockets and fabric. All with a smile and great patience. Bit of a star.

So I unreservedly recommend him to anyone who wants to dress well, whatever the occasion. You'll always look better than the waiter and women won't despise you for your dress sense.

I have been a customer with Hemingways for a number of years now and have always been delighted with my purchases. Nothing is too much trouble for them and the service you receive is second to none. Tobys priority is customer satisfaction provided from his years of experience, delivered with a smile .I recommend
Hemingways unreservedly.

Brilliant people and great customer services.

Received my second jacket from Hemingway this year and am delighted with the quality and fit. Great personal service from Toby. Highly recommended!

My daughter was getting married and I needed a suit for the occasion. I’m not the sort of person who can just go and get a suit off the peg, being morbidly obese, and so wasn’t looking forward to the experience. Toby immediately put me at ease and created a suit for me that I will be proud to wear at my daughters wedding. Toby doesn’t just create suits but gives you advice on every aspect of the suit from the colour of the buttons and the linings that will look good, to the buttonhole for the wedding flower.
I also asked Toby to make me a shirt for the wedding. Again Toby provided his experience in giving advice on colour and shape that would best suit me.
Toby is ably backed up by Joanne in handling the company admin.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Toby’s company to anyone. Excellent service, advice and end product.

As a long standing customer of Hemingway tailors (10+ years), it is very easy for me to highly recommend them. The service is first class and the products top class. It’s a real pleasure to do business with Toby and Joanne. Treat yourself.

I had admired the suits my friend wore for years. I asked him where he had his suits made & he informed me that Toby Luper of Hemingway Taylor’s had always made all his suits. Despite me living in Liverpool I decided to make the journey over to Leeds to have a suit made by Toby.
I am thrilled not only with the quality but the style & most importantly the perfect fit.
I was delighted also with so many of the extras Toby incorporates in the suit such as as a glasses pocket which is lined so the lens don’t scratch, the button side panels on the trousers which are perfect if like me your weight fluctuates to name just a few. On my first visit I was measured & chose my material from his extensive range of cloths & wide assortment of lining materials. I could not believe that on my next visit my suit was finished and a perfect fit.
I can not praise this whole experience of having a suit made to measure by Tony Luper at Hemingway enough. I was especially pleased with the fit of the trousers so I had another 2 pairs made by him. In my opinion Toby Luper at Hemingway Taylor’s is Leeds hidden Gem & I can not recommend him highly enough.

I’m a huge fan of everything Toby and his team do. I bought one 3 piece suit for work and have already been back for another. The quality of service, product and professionalism is unrivalled. I always get compliments when wearing my suits and wax lyrical about Toby and his team. Don’t waste time looking anywhere else.

I have purchased made to measure shirts and suits from Hemingway Tailors for more years that I care to remember. My recent appointment with Toby was for smart casual shirts for work and social events.

Looking through the material swatches is not always easy but Toby knows exactly my shirt material style and material weight and made recommendations which I agreed with.

The shirts purchased all fit perfectly and are of the highest quality, thank you.

Appointments at Hemingway Tailors are so much more than just a buying experience. I can honestly say I always receive a very friendly welcome from Toby and Joanne and genuine interest in me as an individual and of course a customer.

I would highly recommend Hemingway Tailors as I can guarantee after your first appointment and purchase you will not go anywhere else simply because the knowledge, professionalism, attention to detail and excellence of material, finish and fit cannot be beaten.

Great company. Toby and Mark were excellent at communicating from start to finish. The suit itself is beautifully made and Mark got the styling and fit just right. Really impressed and will be back.

My best man and I are so happy with our wedding suits. Toby is a genius. A fantastic experience - thank you.

I recently had a suit made at Hemingways for my nephews wedding. I cannot thank them enough for what they did in such short time. I had my first fitting at the beginning of April and collected the suit on 7th May. Nothing was too much trouble and on both occasions I met with Toby on a Saturday morning which wasn’t his working day. I would recommend them and will be using them again to make a jacket for another wedding.

Toby just understands what I need, often before I do!
The experience is enjoyable, informative and engages you in the process of designing your clothes.

From the welcome at the door to the hospitality and the total professionalism of the whole operation it is simply an experience to behold of world class service. The finished product is exactly as Toby said and he takes you through the entire process with every option explained and ultimately agreed upon. He is in every sense a superb operator and a master of his trade.

Thank you, everything you would expect and so much more, service, quality, attention to detail, and a truly fabulous suit. Thank you Toby for all your help and advice.

For the first time in my life I have purchase a bespoke made to measure suit. The personal service, experience, and attention to detail gave me great confidence from the choice of cloth to the inside leg measurement and I was amazed that when I was called in for the first fitting, all I can say is WOW. The suit fitted first time. I went home as pleased as punch.
Three new shirts were also purchased from stock and the quality is great.
I can now see the benefit of wearing a suit measured for me. It is so lightweight and comfortable.

To date.....I have had a couple of beautiful items from Hemingway's - a trouser suit and a Chanel fabric jacket. Both are quite stunning !!!
The customer service, and attention to detail, from Toby is excellent, it is always a pleasure to visit.
Thank you

Very professional from initial contact to delivery I was on a very tight time schedule and Hemminways delivered fully. I really enjoyed the whole experience and I am delighted with the finished Jacket.

I invited Toby to design me a Navy Peacoat. I had dreamed of owning a bespoke item of clothing and had the opportunity to act on this. The fitting and finishing were immaculate and the compliments I have received have been off the charts. What you get in a bespoke item is, form, fit and comfort. Sooo pleased I have this beautiful coat
