About 1701 Bespoke

My name is Max Schmidt, and I’m the founder of 1701 Bespoke.

I’ve spent over a decade designing custom garments for thousands of clients. My goal is simple:

You should be the best dressed in any room—and feel completely at ease while doing it.

That’s why I focus on perfect fit, top-tier craftsmanship, and the finest materials.

Every suit is made in Italy. The fabrics come from the best mills in England and Italy. And I make sure every garment we create together meets your exact needs.

Whether it’s a cashmere knit polo, custom made shoes from Spain, or your perfect wedding tuxedo, I don’t stop until the fit is just right.

When you work with me, I’ll walk you through the entire process and make sure you always know what you’re getting—and why it matters.
