bradford bulls

A project that means more than just tailoring.

We’re incredibly proud to share our recent collaboration with the Bradford Bulls as they make their long-awaited return to the Super League.

This is Paul Wild one of the proud owners of the club wearing something far more than a bespoke suit. This garment tells a story 🏉

Back in 1981 at Odsal Stadium, Paul was a young ball boy alongside his cousin, witnessing Bradford Northern lift the Championship and the John Player Trophy. A defining childhood memory captured now forever in navy cloth.

Roll on 45 years… and he now stands as one of the proud owners of the very club he once supported from the sidelines.

This suit was designed to honour that journey 🪡

Crafted from a Bradford made Bateman Ogden Plain Navy Gabardine their showroom sitting less than a mile from Odsal Stadium this truly is a Yorkshire collaboration from start to finish.

We incorporated the Bulls’ colours throughout, including:

  • A tricolour lapel Milanese buttonhole
  • Functional tricolour sleeve cuffs
  • The new Bulls logo positioned precisely 1cm below the chest pocket welt — carefully embroidered to avoid interference with the internal lining, ensuring a clean and professional finish
  • 4 Stars under the collar in honour of Super League Champions: 1997, 2001, 2003, 2005

Every detail intentional. Every stitch meaningful 🪡

It’s been a fantastic project from concept to completion, and we’re excited to continue working closely with this incredible club.

Bespoke tailoring has a very special place within professional sport — because when done properly, it tells a story no off-the-peg garment ever could.

Here’s to the next chapter 🐂

“Run With The Bulls”

This is just one of several bespoke pieces we are creating for the club’s partners and directors — each suit telling a different story, each journey uniquely personal.

It’s been a fantastic project from concept to completion, and we’re excited to continue building something truly special alongside this incredible club.

Tailored for Those Who Lead

Each piece we create is personal, considered, and crafted without compromise. If you would like to explore a bespoke commission or partnership opportunity, our team would be delighted to speak with you.
