History

Nicholas Charles Tyrwhitt Wheeler founded the company in 1986 while studying at the University of Bristol. Initially operating as a mail-order business, the brand opened its first physical store on London’s Jermyn Street in 1997. It played a significant role in the democratization of high-end British shirtmaking by utilizing global supply chains to scale traditional designs. The brand remains a primary contributor to the visual identity of the London financial district's professional workforce.
