What to know about Selected Homme

Tailoring you buy in pieces

The core is suit separates and slim tailoring, plus wool overcoats, oxford shirts, chinos and knitwear in muted colours — a Scandinavian take on office-to-weekend basics.

A Bestseller brand, priced accordingly

Launched in 1997 inside the Danish group Bestseller, it sits at mid-market prices rather than competing with designer tailoring.

The group's materials testing ground

Within Bestseller it has been used to roll out the sustainability programme, with organic cotton and recycled fibres appearing across collections.
