Small Business Makes Custom Tailored Shirts to Order - Small Biz Blog

ANDREW PATRICIO

Shirtpal is a Toronto-based company specializing in men’s custom tailored shirts.  Their aim is to revolutionize your shopping experience by offering perfect fit custom dress shirts for off the rack prices.  Shirtpal differentiates itself from its competitors with its well-designed website that offers the ability to custom design shirts from the comfort of your own home.  Options include custom monograms, collars and cuffs.  Shirtpal puts a huge emphasis on user experience and has recently brought on image consultants.  Their purpose is to provide advice to customers, completely tailored to the individual.    Information gathered includes profession, common colors worn by the individual, and what’s currently in their wardrobe. 

Shirtpal’s success has grown steadily since its inception in December 2009. Its founders, Winnie Cheung and Noorneet Singh, are recent graduates from the Richard Ivey School of Business.  The company is currently expanding across Canada, with local events in Toronto,  Vancouver and Montreal. Global operations exist in Sydney, Thailand,  Japan and Singapore.  Attending these events allows customers to have their measurements taken, speak with our image consultants, see shirt samples and feel the fabrics. 

Winnie and Noorneet are also very big on giving back to the community.  Shirtpal has established a partnership with Buy1Give1, a charitable organization.  For every shirt the company sells, Shirtpal will clothe and provide toiletries for a child in Mumbai.  Shirtpal’s goal is to clothe approximately 25,000 children this year.
