The business suit is made from a Super 110’s wool, giving it an authentic tailormade feel and an extremely comfortable fit, a fit so comfortable that you will forget you’re wearing a business suit. Customers can select the color and pattern: there are four colors for the herringbone print (Navy, Dark navy, Light gray and Charcoal gray), and three solid colors (Black, Dark navy and Charcoal gray)*. In addition, every detail, such as the hem of the pant, the shape of the pocket, the button and the color of the lining can be custom ordered, offering customers not only the ultimate fit but also their preferred design.
*An additional option - a striped fabric in three colors (Navy, Light gray and Charcoal gray) are expected to be available this fall.
The dress shirt is offered in 14 colors, with a personalized fit down to the millimeter not only around the neck, shoulders and chest, but the sleeve-length, cuff, length and waist as well. Even the collar size and height and the pocket size and placement have been carefully considered. The collar and sleeve can be customized, which enables us to create a dress shirt with the perfect fit and design just for you.

By doing so, we are able to create the ideal silhouette with an effortless fit. This custom-made suit will fit you perfectly and reflect your style and design preferences.
By applying various tailoring techniques, we were able to create a clean silhouette, which emphasizes the beauty of each line in your body. Moreover, the fit can be adjusted based on your preferred balance – either a relaxed or tight fit.
The shape of the chest pocket creates an appealing curve and side vent are the perfect accent for creating your unique silhouette.

We recommend our customers to keep the barca on the left side of the pocket, and the flap beads for the waist pocket, however it’s up to each customer to choose based on their personal style. Customers can select from a boat-shaped left breast pocket, or a flapless for the waist pocket.
Pants pocket
The standard is a flapless pocket, however, you can add a flap if you want to customize your style.

The ZOZO dress shirt can be altered as you wish – there’s no other shirt like it.
- Custom-fit clothing that fits every body shape.
We have carefully considered each detail, by making millimeter adjustments around the neck, shoulders, chest, sleeve-length, cuff, length, waist, and even the collar size and height, pocket size and placement. By doing so, we are able to offer a tailor-made feel that will suit your body size and personal style.
◆The ZOZO dress shirt can be altered as you wish – there’s no other shirt like it.
You can create the perfect fit for you by making size and design adjustments around the neck, shoulders, chest, sleeves, length and wrist.
Neck
The shirt provides a comfortable fit, leaving just the right space at the neck. The proportion of the collar has been adjusted down to the millimeter, according to the hook point and the height of the collar. There are three options for the collar; the ZOZO regular, which is not your typical standard design but can be worn together with many different styles. The Button Down is perfect for a business-casual look: the placement, width and even the angle has been taken into account. The Wide Neck offers a clean-cut around the face, giving you a sophisticated look even without wearing a tie.
Sleeve and dress length
Have you ever given up on owning a shirt with the perfect sleeve length to prioritize the fit of other parts of the shirt? With this shirt, you can make the slightest adjustments (of 1～2cm) in order to assure a custom fit for every part of you perfectly. You can even adjust the sleeve length according to your jacket.
Cuff design
We have researched and developed the perfect balance to remove discomfort around the wrist. You can adjust the length of the cuff down to the centimeter, adjusting it for a more relaxed or more formal fit, or to best compliment a watch. There are three options for the cuff design: choose from a classic circle on the corner of the cuff, a round curve that would work for any occasion, or a sophisticated cornering-off to reflect more of your personality to the shirt.
Customized pockets or, no pocket at all
In order to emphasize the clean lines of the shirt, choose the ZOZO dress shirt without a pocket. If you choose a pocket, we have precisely measured down to each millimeter of the size and placement of the pocket, in order to create the perfect balance for every body.
Monogram
Create your very own personalized shirt by embroidering your initials or name in cursive.
◆An “exceptional comfort” that will fully satisfy your expectations
A comfortable fabric that can be worn every day.
We used a 100% natural cotton, which will fit your body perfectly. With the perfect thickness, it can be worn all year around. In order to reduce the sheer, we have incorporated as many picks and ends per inch, as well as making the thickness of the warp and weft different to maintain its comfortable texture. Moreover, we have also applied a wrinkle-reduction treatment which will make the daily-care much easier for you.
Full of details that shirt lovers would appreciate
The side of the shirt is a rolled hemming finish, which is common among high-end shirts. By keeping the button simple, we have maintained its luxury feel while strengthening the shirt. Above all, by adopting the plush core for the collar and cuff, we were able to create an ideal strength, as well as a comfortable texture around the neck that can be worn all day long.
In addition, ZOZO is also planning to launch its new casual items, the Straight denim, V-neck T-shirt, and Pocket T-shirt for men, and the Straight denim, Skinny denim, V-neck T-Shirt and Oxford shirt for women. As a result, ZOZO will be offering 8 items for men, and 6 for women. ZOZO is expecting to further expand its product lineup within the year.
The company’s goal is to spread this one-of-a-kind fashion experience of custom-fit to customers all over the world, by providing the ZOZOSUIT for free, and developing new wardrobe essentials for ZOZO.
