Meet Jake

Jake heads up our Oxford store, a city known for its heritage and style. With years of experience in bespoke tailoring, Jake’s strength lies in his ability to blend classic tailoring traditions with contemporary needs. He enjoys the detail of precision cutting and the artistry of fabrics but above all values the conversations and trust he builds with clients. In Oxford, where history meets modern living, Jake helps clients express themselves in clothing that feels authentic, confident, and timeless. His approach is thoughtful yet relaxed, making the tailoring experience both enjoyable and memorable.

"For me, tailoring is storytelling through cloth, it’s about giving someone a garment that reflects exactly who they are."

Ask Jake

What brought you into tailoring?

I loved the idea of combining craftsmanship with creativity. Tailoring lets me do both every day.

How would you describe Oxford style?

It’s refined but not stuffy—people here appreciate tradition but love a subtle twist.

Favourite project you’ve worked on?

A bespoke three-piece suit for a professor—he wanted something timeless but with playful details.

What keeps you motivated?

Seeing someone light up when they try on a garment made just for them—that moment never gets old.

Over the last couple of years become a big fan. Stumbled on the shop as a local keen to find suits that fit properly! The team are very friendly and always keen to please. Two years later and have now replaced all my suits with Clements and Church! Now moving on to casual gear too!

You haven't experienced customer service or satisfaction until you have shopped here. Quite simply, without question, the best tailors out there by a country mile.

An exceptional service. I have various disabilities and was looking for somewhere to have a new blazer made that didn't require me travelling to the outfitter. I found C and C on the internet and on making contact Jake could not have been more helpful. He came to my home outside Oxford and after two fittings I now have a fantastic new and perfectly fitting blazer. The result of a painless polite and helpful service. Well done Jake I will be back for more. Thank you. Graham.

I had a fantastic experience with Clements and Church (Oxford) and could not recommend them highly enough. From our first interaction, Jake was kind, friendly, helpful, and not in any way pushy. The suit itself was absolutely spectacular and everything that I could have hoped for - it fits like an absolute charm and well beyond anything that you could buy off the rack. The bespoke touches that they added really enhanced the suit even more.
