Are Skopes suits good quality?

Yes — Skopes has been making suits since 1948 and is still a family-owned business, now run by the third generation of the founding Cope family. The suits use proper wool-mix cloths and are built to a consistent fit rather than being a one-season fast-fashion line.

Where are Skopes suits made?

Skopes was founded in Leeds in 1948 and built its name on Yorkshire textile heritage, sourcing cavalry twills, Hebden Bridge corduroy and Huddersfield worsteds. The brand remains a UK company, now run by the third generation of the founding family.

Where can I buy Skopes suits in the UK?

Baks Menswear stocks Skopes suits in-store in Westbourne, Bournemouth, and online with UK delivery.

What fits do Skopes suits come in?

Skopes suits here come in classic, slim and tailored fits, with a generous size range including bigger builds. Ask in-store if you're unsure which fit fits your build best.

How do I care for a Skopes suit?

Most Skopes suits need dry cleaning rather than washing, since wool-mix cloths can lose their shape in a washing machine. Hang the suit on a proper shaped hanger between wears and check the individual care label for the exact fabric blend.

Skopes Suits

Skopes has been making men's suits since 1948, when Sydney Cope started the business in Leeds sourcing fabric from Yorkshire's best mills. Three generations of the Cope family later, it's still family-owned. At Baks Menswear in Bournemouth, we stock Skopes suits, dinner suits and blazers for weddings, work and formal occasions.

We stock Skopes because it does proper tailoring at a fair price, without needing a made-to-measure appointment. Seventy-five years in the trade means the fit and the finish are dependable, season after season.

The range covers two and three-piece suits, dinner suits and tuxedos, and blazers, in classic, slim and tailored fits. Skopes also runs an eco range made partly from recycled plastic bottles, alongside its standard wool-mix cloths.

Suits are cut from cavalry twills, corduroy and worsted fabrics in the same tradition the brand built its name on in Yorkshire. Sizes run generously, including options for bigger builds that some suit brands don't bother with.

If you need a suit for a wedding, an interview or a formal event without the made-to-measure price tag, this is where to look.
