Charles Gale Tailoring is a distinguished British clothing brand renowned for its premium made-to-measure tailoring with a focus on Tweed Shooting Suits and traditional countrywear. With over 30 years of experience, they have established themselves as specialists in delivering the finest quality garments combined with exceptional service. Their unique approach includes a 'By Appointment' visiting service available throughout the UK, allowing them to provide personalised attention to each client.
The brand’s story began in 1983 when Charles Gale founded the business. From the outset, they built a strong and loyal customer base by offering unparalleled quality and service tailored to the shooting community, with a particular emphasis on crafting made-to-measure tweed suits for gamekeepers. This foundation of excellence set the tone for their reputation as a premium tailoring house.
In 2016, following Charles Gale’s retirement, John McFadyen took over the helm. Coming from the prestigious Saville Row, John was exceptionally qualified to uphold and enhance the brand’s legacy. Under his guidance, the brand continued to flourish, maintaining its commitment to quality until his own retirement in 2024.
The transition in 2025 marked a new chapter when Jon Wall, a Yorkshireman with extensive experience in the wool textile industry, acquired the brand. He integrated Charles Gale Tailoring into his existing tailoring and retail business, where it now represents the premium segment. This continuity under Jon Wall’s leadership ensures that the brand’s heritage of superior craftsmanship and dedicated service remains steadfast.
Throughout its history, Charles Gale Tailoring has remained dedicated to producing the highest calibre of bespoke countrywear, supporting their clients with expertise and personal service. Their long-standing presence in the industry reflects a deep understanding of traditional British tailoring and country lifestyle garments.
For enquiries, they remain accessible through direct contact, reinforcing their personalised service ethos. The brand embodies a legacy of quality, tradition, and bespoke tailoring, making them a respected name in British countrywear and bespoke tailoring circles.
