JOSEPH TURNER SHIRTS
2010

Joseph Turner shirts are hand-finished and tailored from the
finest pure cotton fabrics in Yorkshire, England. Though only ten years
old, this British shirtmaker has become an overwhelming success in the
past few years due to the quality and breadth of their range. Joseph
Turner use only the finest pure two-fold cotton in their formal shirts,
renowned for its silky feeling against the skin, while
the luxurious sea island cotton shirts are wonderfully soft, yet
strong.
Joseph Turner tweed jackets are handmade in Scotland to the
highest quality standards, while the majority of Joseph Turner's shoes
are made by that bastion of British craftsmanship, Loake of
Northampton, established in 1880. Joseph Turner ties are designed in
the famous silk weaving region of Northern Italy, and finished by hand
in Yorkshire.

JOSEPH TURNER BACKGROUND

Joseph Turner was established in 1997, and has swiftly grown successful
based
on its founder's principle of creating exceptional shirts, while
avoiding overheads such as expensive retail space, and then passing on
the
savings to customers. Based in Yorkshire, Joseph Turner's
heritage is firmly rooted in the histoirc textile industry of the area.
The result is a collection of impeccable shirts for business, clothing
for all types of formal and informal occasions, and a range of
gentlemen’s accessories. Apart from shirts, Joseph Turner also offer
pure Italian silk ties,
Scottish cashmere jumpers and Northampton-made leather shoes. Every
Joseph Turner supplier is carefully researched to ensure the company's
philosopy of providing exceptional quality at reasonable prices in

DESIGNER BRITAIN REVIEW
Joseph Turner has increased rapidly in
prominence in the past few years as their commercial strategy of
minimising overheads while still producing a range of the very highest
quality menswear has started to attract a wave of customers looking
quite simply for the best quality at the best price. What makes Joseph
Turner shirts so special? Mostly it is in the attention to detail,
with specifications including single-needle stitching, four-piece split
yokes, two-piece interlined collars and lock-stitched buttons. When
Joseph Turner use external suppliers, they similarly opt for the very
best. Loake of Northampton shoes for example take up to 8 weeks in
production and feature Goodyear-welted leather soles. This Yorkshire
shirtmaker is a real new star in the field of British shirtmaking, and
for the moment at least continues to be one of Britain's best kept
secrets.
