About the shirts
We make all of our shirts in a factory in the Marche region of Italy. The factory has working partnerships with some of the world's best fabric suppliers which stretch back for generations.
We have no physical stores. Apposta has always been an online-only brand which delivers worldwide. Our lack of physical stores coupled with our direct-to-consumer business model means that customers can expect to pay considerably less for premium quality custom-made Italian shirts.
We have an inventory of over 4,000 premium quality fabrics sourced from some of the world’s most prestigious suppliers. Many of our relationships with these fabric suppliers have existed for generations.
All of the fabrics offered by Apposta are certified by Oeko-Tex®, an association which is responsible for ensuring human and ecological safety requirements regarding textile articles throughout the entire production process.

Yes, all of the shirts that you can see on our website can be customised at no extra cost. This includes the fabric, design features and monogramming. For instructions on how to do this click here.
From initial order to completion, it takes our expert shirtmakers just two weeks to make each shirt. This is unique for custom-made shirt production. Every order (made to measure and standard size) is managed separately from all others and we create a specific pattern for each shirt.
We send an email once an order is in production with the expected date of shipment.
From initial order to completion, it takes our expert shirtmakers just two weeks to make each shirt. This is unique for custom-made shirt production. If you need a shirt for a specific date we recommend that you order further in advance should you need alterations. This will also give you more time to receive the delivery.
About the measurements
It is possible to create measurements profiles before you begin the process of creating a shirt. To do this, log in to your account then click on your name on the right-hand section of the website’s blue top bar. From the drop down menu, select ‘Measurements Profiles’ where you can insert your measurements.
Alternatively you will be given the opportunity to create a measurements profile (or select a standard size) just before adding your order to the basket during the shirt making process.
Measurements can be taken on your body, on an existing shirt or you can customize a standard size (using the standard size as a starting reference).
Measurements profiles are saved and can be used to make other shirts.
For instructions on how to take measurements on the body click here.
For instructions on how to take measurements from another shirt click here.
Go to your measurements profile. This is located in the drop down menu which appears when you click your name on the right-hand side of the website’s blue top bar. Click ‘Edit’ to update your measurements and then ‘Save’ once you’ve inputted your changes.
Changes will only be reflected on new orders and orders in the shopping cart. If you need to change measurement details of a shirt which is in production see the ‘About Placing Orders’ section of the FAQ page.
If you supply us with measurements taken on the body, we will add additional centimetres/inches of fabric at the chest, waist and cuffs of your shirt, depending on the type of fitting chosen. For instructions on how to take measurements on the body click here.
If you supply us with measurements from a shirt which you already own, your finished shirt will have measurements exactly the same as those inputted into your measurements profile. For instructions on how to take measurements from another shirt click here.
Our cloning service can replicate aspects of a shirt that you already own. Find out how to have us clone a shirt by clicking here.
Due to technical limitations it is possible that garments with very large or very small measurements cannot be manufactured. In this eventuality we will inform you and provide a full refund.
The size ranges which we are able to accommodate are as follows:
Chest: 75cm - 180cm
Waist: 65cm - 180cm
Shoulders: 35cm - 65cm
About placing orders
Orders can be placed in two different ways. You can choose an existing shirt and customise it if you need to. Alternatively you can design your own shirt starting with the fabric, choosing the rest of the design details as you go along. In both cases you only pay for the initial cost of the shirt or fabric, with all customisations included in this initial price.

About order status
Get in touch with our customer care team here for an update on your order.
You will receive a notification email with the expected dispatch date when we start to produce your order. Then we will email you again once the order is ‘ready to ship’ and ‘shipped’.
About shipping
Apposta uses UPS for all countries apart from the UK. In the UK we use DPD and DHL primarily for returns.
The express couriers that we use to ship orders deliver within two working days throughout Europe and within four working days throughout the rest of the world.
Shipping may sometimes be delayed for reasons beyond Apposta’s control.
The courier will deliver to the address stated in the original order, so it is preferable to give an address where someone will be available to physically receive the order.
Apposta ships to anywhere in the world.
You will receive a separate email with a tracking reference from the courier service which you can use to track your order.
We ship multiple orders together to a UPS international logistics hub to reduce emissions and lessen our environmental impact. When individual orders leave our Italian factory, they are sent as part of a single shipment, so customers cannot track individual orders at this stage.
Once the group of orders reaches the UPS international logistics hub, individual orders will be sorted and entered into the system. At this point your tracking will begin to update along with the expected delivery date.
For deliveries outside of the European Union customs duties and taxes may apply. The courier will ask for these before delivery. Those amounts depend on the applicable rules of the destination country at the time the package is received and are beyond Apposta’s control.
Yes, but only if the order hasn’t been shipped yet. Contact our customer service team by clicking here.
f you have only received part of your order, this may be because there has been an issue with the other part of your order (such as a fabric delay or a defect) which means that we have shipped the completed part of your order ahead of the remainder.
In the case that we have only shipped part of your order, you will receive subsequent items as soon as they are ready and you will not be charged for the separate shipments.
For a detailed update on your order, contact our customer service team by clicking here.
Every Apposta shirt is made in our Italian factory. From there shirts are shipped together to a logistics hub in France which sorts the packages by destination country and directs them to their final location.

About problems with an order
Apposta’s perfect-fit guarantee means that we take responsibility for ensuring that customers are completely satisfied with every shirt that they receive.
As part of this perfect-fit guarantee we will resolve any of the following problems at our expense. This applies to all shirts whether they are made for your own measurements or ordered in a standard size.
When there are problems shirts will be modified if possible. Otherwise, they will be remade. In both cases the customer will not be charged.
