The Ede & Ravenscroft branch on High Street is most likely the best choice for suit, shirts and formal wear in Oxford. As part of the Ede & Ravenscroft tailoring house in London’s Old Burlington Street, not only does the Oxford shop offer ready-made suits, sweaters, ties, shirts and accessories, they are also able to deliver custom-made shirts and suits and to my knowledge –at least until recently– had a tailor coming in for bespoke clothes. The choice of clothes and formal wear is quite remarkable for a small city like Oxford, and with quite a few well-off kids joining the local university each year, there definitely is demand for a shop like E & R. They do provide a great variety of dinner suits, and since every student at Oxford University at some point during his university life requires a dinner suit, this would be my recommended place to get it from. And students even get a 10 percent discount(at least they got it during my student time).

An Oxford tradition, with impeccable service and high-quality ceremonial garments for students and professionals. No lack of quality but it is expensive — the Shepard & Woodward down the road is much cheaper, although not quite as distinguished

The last bastion of good service in the United Kingdom outside of a suck-up highend fashion house. Ede and Ravens croft delivers a range of off the peg shirts to full bespoke suits with traditional style and top quality personal service. Highly recommended for their shirting and suiting; however bewared that any customized or bespoke items will take a lengthy amount of time to be completed. Pricing is very reasonable considering the service, location and quality. If you are a frequent visitor, I would recommend joining their mailing list which entitles you to 10% off selected items.

Ede and Ravenscroft is one of those shops that really belongs in Oxford. It’s a little glimpse into the past and into the world of esteemed traditional businessmen. I reckon most people who go in are just curious at the idea of a traditional tailors, and it’s a refreshingly quiet change to similar shops in London. It specialises in menswear, but I’ve had a browse around for cufflinks and ties as presents for male friends and family members. Unfortunately for me, the price is high for such quality products, so I remain an admiring window shopper. There is a 10% discount for students, so it’s a good place for interview or internship clothes, or even for sub-fusc, if you want quality clothes that will last. It also caters for academics, legal professions and even clerical outfits. You can treat it as a normal shop or get professionally measured and have clothes tailor-made. Great fun to browse around, but definitely not an everyday shop.
