Donear.

A Surat and Mumbai house that quietly assembled several of the oldest names in Indian suiting.

Navy Donear windowpane and pinstripe bolts with the Donear name woven in gold

Donear is one of the larger suiting and shirting manufacturers in the country, and one of the most widely stocked. The book is broad, the finishes are engineered for Indian conditions rather than adapted to them, and the cloth turns up when it is supposed to. For a tailor working to a date, that last point is worth more than it sounds.

Suiting and shirting, across a wide book

Donear covers suiting and shirting across a wide range of constructions, from poly-viscose and poly-wool blends through to cottons. It is a working book rather than a boutique one, and the breadth is the point: whatever a customer walks in describing, there is usually a version of it here.

The strength is in the finishing. A finish that keeps a trouser looking pressed at four in the afternoon in Chennai is solving a real problem, and this is a house that has spent a long time solving it for the Indian market.

What Donear cloth is good for

Donear's own book is a broad Indian suiting and shirting range, with a good deal of engineering behind the finishes rather than the fibre. That is the honest description of this end of the market and it is not a slight: a finish that keeps a poly-viscose trouser looking pressed at four in the afternoon in Chennai is solving a real problem.

For customers ordering in quantity, for corporate wear, and for the trousers and jackets that take daily punishment, this is a sound and practical book.

When we open Donear

We open it when the brief is durability and volume rather than fineness. A set of six office trousers. A corporate order. The suit that goes to site visits as well as meetings.

Donear cloth is available to order through us.
