The Suit Society was founded by cousins, James Knell and Jonathon Radford, after losing confidence in ill-fitting off the rack suits in 2012. Both tired of stuffy, dark, smoky and expensive tailor houses alienating most young men, they yearned for something different. For the next year, they scoured the globe in search of the perfect master tailors. Eventually, they partnered with prominent Shanghai tailors, with a commitment to superb ethics, fabrics and workmanship. To ensure the fabrics used to craft their garments were suited to the Australian climate, Suit Society sourced fabrics exclusively from English and Italian mills (all being 100 percent wool, super 110 grade or finer).

Fast forward nine years and Suit Society has successfully established itself as a prominent suit company in the Australian market. Starting as a solely Brisbane-based endeavour, its services are now available Australian wide (including Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Toowoomba, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Canberra and Cairns). Suit Society continues to build upon its relationship with its master tailors in Shanghai, with additional fabrics and innovations continually updated to ensure that its over five-hundred members are provided with new and exciting options each season.
