Custom-Made Shirts — Over 2,000 Fabrics, Tailored to Your Measurements

A shirt that truly fits transforms the entire look. At Akkari Menswear, we create custom-made shirts for clients across Sydney — individually cut to your measurements, crafted from premium fabrics and finished to a standard that off-the-rack simply cannot replicate.

With over 2,000 fabrics to choose from across cotton, linen, silk, wool, stretch and performance blends, every shirt we produce is a one-of-a-kind garment built entirely around you. All appointments are private and by booking only.

Premium Shirt Fabrics from the World's Finest Mills

• Loro Piana (Italy) — the benchmark for fine shirting; extraordinarily soft, beautifully finished and a pleasure to wear
• Albini (Italy) — Italy's most celebrated shirt fabric mill, renowned for luxurious cotton and linen weaves across a vast range of weights and finishes
• Thomas Mason (England) — an English institution; the finest poplin, twill and Oxford weaves favoured by Savile Row shirtmakers for generations
• Ariston (Italy) — premium fabrics suited to both formal and casual shirt applications with excellent versatility

With over 2,000 shirt fabrics to choose from across cotton, linen, silk, wool, stretch and performance blends, and over 5,000 suiting fabrics available across our full range of garments, every client is guaranteed to find exactly the right material.

Collar Styles

• Spread collar — a widely opened collar with a broad space between the collar points; the most versatile modern collar, suited to ties of all widths
• Cutaway collar — an extreme spread where the collar points angle outward at a near-horizontal position; bold, contemporary and well-suited to wider tie knots
• Semi-spread — a balanced middle ground between a point and a spread; professional, versatile and universally flattering
• Button-down collar — the collar points fasten to the shirt with buttons; a more relaxed, American-influenced style suited to smart-casual and business-casual environments
• Tab collar — a small tab fastens between the collar points beneath the tie knot, lifting and centring the knot for a precise, elevated appearance
• Mandarin collar — a collarless, band-only style for contemporary and casual shirt applications

Cuff Styles

• French cuff (double cuff) — the cuff folds back and fastens with cufflinks; the most formal option and the choice for black-tie, weddings and premium business occasions
• Standard cuff — the standard shirt cuff, fastened with one or two buttons; versatile across formal and business environments
  

Placket Styles

• Standard placket — the classic shirt front with a visible button band; clean and versatile across all shirt types
• Hidden placket (fly front) — buttons are concealed behind a fold of fabric for a smooth, uninterrupted shirt front; the most formal and refined option
• No placket — a clean, minimalist front with no visible button band, suited to contemporary and casual styles

Shirt Types We Create

Formal & Business Shirts

Designed for professional environments, black-tie occasions and weddings. Available across all collar and cuff configurations with the finest cotton and linen fabrics from Albini and Thomas Mason.

Casual Short & Long Sleeve Shirts

Individually tailored for comfort, style and versatility. Perfect for building a casual wardrobe that still carries the quality of true custom tailoring — because the fit is the difference.

Popover Shirts

A pullover shirt with a partial placket — typically 3–4 buttons — worn without tucking. Relaxed, contemporary and increasingly popular as a smart-casual alternative to the traditional dress shirt.

Shirt Jackets

A hybrid between a tailored shirt and a casual jacket — heavier weight, structured slightly and worn as an outer layer. Available in premium cotton, linen and wool-blend shirting fabrics for a distinctly refined casual look.

Wedding & Occasion Shirts

Crafted to coordinate perfectly with your wedding or formal suit. Matched to your garment's fabric and style with personalisation options including monogramming on the cuff, placket or inner collar band.

Personalisation Options

• Monogram embroidery — on the cuff, chest pocket or inner collar band
• Contrasting collar and cuff fabrics
• Custom button selection — mother of pearl, horn or corozo
• Custom back pleat or no pleat construction
• Collar stiffener options
