Who we are
Once upon a shirt, Nicholas Charles Tyrwhitt Wheeler had the notion that he could make a better shirt at better value than anyone else in the world! He believed that all men, no matter their shape, size, or budget, should be able to own a Jermyn Street quality shirt. A proper shirt. A CT shirt.
That was over 3 decades ago, and whilst Charles Tyrwhitt is still famous for proper shirts, we are about so much more than collars and cuffs. Our purpose is to make it easy for men to dress well, taking care of a chap’s entire wardrobe and providing stylish solutions for every occasion.
Our flagship store is located on London’s famous Jermyn Street, with our Global Head Office in London Bridge and an office in Manhattan to support our retail and online presence across North America, Europe, and Australia.
At Charles Tyrwhitt, we believe in doing the right thing—making our products sustainably, ensuring our business works for our people, customers, and suppliers, and giving back to charity. We are committed to evaluating our social and environmental impact and continually seeking ways to improve.
‘I am Proud and Free to be me!’
Tyrwhitteers are a diverse, passionate, and entrepreneurial bunch. We enjoy a fun, engaging, and rewarding culture, empowered by our 3 BE-liefs: “BE the BOSS”, “BE the CUSTOMER”, and “BE the BEST”.
