Honesty remains at the core of our existence as the purveyors of classic menswear and style. Michael Donnelly founded North Clothing in Belfast in 1998. After a successful career in menswear dealing with many leading designers in the mens fashion industry Michael decided to start his own more quality focused project, as he felt most of the major labels were now focused on profits and had somehow lost sight of what was important in menswear.
Now over 20 years later, Michael is still promoting that quality garment focusing mostly on British and Irish made garments from hand made footwear to finely woven Irish tweeds. Many of North Clothing's suppliers work closely with Michael and the team, creating unique collections exclusive to North, classic pieces that stand the test of time.

There is a great deal of satisfaction to be gained from making something well, of such superior quality that you know it is going to stand the test of time. It makes the hard work and the obsessing over each and every detail worth all the effort. That's our reward. That's why we stick to just making jeans.
