    In the late 70's and early 1980's,
MERCER&SONS was located in an 18th century warehouse across from Boston Garden. At that time, the primary maker of traditional button downs shirts cheapened its product. Not only had the workmanship become uneven, the cut was compromised, no longer the full cut of the 50's.

   In response, MERCER&SONS designed our own trademarked shirt pattern (Baggier and Better tm), even more full cut than the classic 1950's model, with a slightly longer 3 7/16" button down collar which we cut, turn, trim and point by hand to guarantee its distinctive full roll.

   Once we had sourced the finest yarn-dyed, two-ply oxford cloth available (our famed Bulletprooftm Pima Oxford) we began manufacturing button downs for men who rely every day on their shirts for fit, quality and traditional good looks.

   Since that time, we have broadened our shirt line to include not only the finest Italian and English shirtings, but also the best straight point, plain collar, modified spread collar, and the best short sleeve sport shirt, as well.

A number of years later, we moved our operations to Adamsville, part of Little Compton, Rhode Island, a small seaside fishing and farming village located in the shadow of historic textile mills of Rhode Island and SE Massachusetts, and close by the highly respected Textile Department at U-Mass- Dartmouth. 

 

More recently, we moved our offices to 89 Maine Street in Yarmouth, an old shipbuilding village nestled between Portland and South Freeport, Maine.
