From English Cut:

Also, my tai­lo­ring collea­gue Jonathan Quear­ney and I met up with mar­ke­ting mavens John­nie Moore and James Cher­koff in Lon­don recently, where they inter­vie­wed us for a podcast.

I was very plea­sed with this. Like Tom’s ear­lier Chris Lydon inter­view on US Public Radio, this kind of stuff adds more dimen­sion to “Brand English Cut” etc.
Kudos to John­nie Moore for making it happen.

    I have follo­wed your ‘English Cut’ blog for the past few months and the launch of Stormhoek. I think you have first mover advan­tage. You were the first to try this whole thing about bes­poke suits.
    What hap­pens to another tai­lor who ope­ra­tes in the same space? I think another blog about suits would not have the same fresh­ness and con­se­quently the same impact.
    As blogs ahve pro­li­fe­ra­ted, it is get­ting har­der and har­der to keep up, even with the blogs you really like. Any con­su­mer is likely to have only a cou­ple of hours free during a typi­cal work­day.
    So, my con­ten­tion is this. Yes, you have done a fan­tas­tic job for English Cut. Yes, it may work for Stormhoek as well. But the more pro­ducts you start to write about, no mat­ter how objec­tive you are, your blog has the real risk of beco­ming another ‘shop­ping site’

    Agreed. There’s a risk.
    But it’s not as risky as doing nothing ;-)
