How we can help

Bespoke

Made to order - totally unique

Lyn Oakes specialise in producing bespoke tailored garments for uniforms, built on almost 50 years in the industry. Clients are offered a premium service from our travelling tailors throughout the UK.

With a vast range of British cloths and linings, there are endless options, combinations and customisations for clients to create a totally unique uniform look.

Custom

Adding personality - customise up

Some clients opt for a part-bespoke uniform, perfect for adding a touch of personality to an off-the-peg look. We can add to stock supported lines, incorporating brand colours, adding embroidery or switching the buttons to elevate the look.

This can be used in a mix-and-match basis, pairing off-the-peg and bespoke garments together. This makes for a cost effective solution.

Quick turnaround - ready to go

In addition, we supply a vast range of stock supported corporate suits from our trusted supplier partners, perfect for office outfits & hotel uniforms. These designs tend to be size inclusive and made from part recycled cloths.
