Situated in the heart of Sydney’s CBD J. H. Cutler, Australia’s finest bespoke* tailor, has provided bespoke tailoring and shirt making services to discerning gentlemen throughout Australia and across the world for the last 129 years.
Throughout this time leading identities from Federal and State politics, country families, business, the law, medicine, diplomacy and entertainment have enjoyed the benefits of skills based on the great traditions of England’s Savile Row, the home of bespoke tailoring since the 18th century.
The business was founded in 1884 when Joseph Handel Cutler first opened a shop at 70 King Street, Sydney. Today John Handel Lawson Cutler, the fourth generation of the Cutler family to run the business, assiduously maintains the exacting standards, the quality, the cut, the style and the fit that has made their name synonymous with exclusive clothing.

At J. H. Cutler every item of bespoke clothing is made to each client’s exact measurements. Individual physical characteristics are taken into account and personal consultation plays a pivotal role in the process. No other method produces a better garment for fit, styling, quality and durability.
