Grove & Co is a new menswear company, founded by two friends, Tristan and Ben, and based in London and Bristol. They sell shirts which were initially designed by Tristan's sister, Joss, a designer and pattern-maker and which are entirely British-made to give them greater control over quality and production.
They sent me one of their wool/mix shirts to try (above). Fit, construction and cloth are of the highest quality. The rounded button-down collar gives it a bit of a stylish twist and the tweedy look to the look is attractive and slightly different. Although a wool mix, the cloth is soft and can be worn without a vest. The fit is what I'd describe as tailored, not roomy but certainly not too slim. If you want a big roomy overshirt, try a larger size.
Grove & Co have three new shirts being released soon spring/summer (pictured below). I love the textured and slightly military look to the cloth. I've no doubt they'll sell well. Prices are between £105 and £120. I have no hesitation in highly recommending these beautiful British-made shirts.
