Thresher & Glenny - Tailors and Shirtmakers since 1683

Welcome to Thresher & Glenny's temporary online premises.

After more than three centuries of vigorous innovation we've been happily ticking over for the past few years, quietly outfitting a small but loyal clientele primarily from the legal profession.

Now, as Mr. Thresher observes every spring when updating his wardrobe, it's time to change gear.

Late summer will see a reawakening that moves T.G. forwards with an eye to our outstanding heritage.

There will be appealing tailoring and ready-to-wear offerings, as well as Limited Edition pieces that pick up on highlights from our past (stockings for Nelson, expeditionary wear for Doctor Livingstone, the famous shirts by which Garibaldi's Thousand recognised their leader...)

We recommend you invite us to send updates and exclusive pre-opening offers: it will be as much in your interest as ours. Almost.

If you'd like to be kept in the know, just let Mr Clemdan have your email address.

Mr Glenny is quite the traditionalist. When Mr Thresher suggested we commence corresponding with our clientele via Twitter he expressed an opinion that may be conveyed, in a trim 38 characters, as having little appetite for such tomfoolery.

Mr Thresher, however, is his own man - and very much the go-ahead sort.

He holds out hope that his colleague may relent, dispatching the odd virtual pigeon from time to time. But following his own advice to those whose chests he measures, he's not holding his breath.
