Thomas Pink
The Thomas Pink Story, at least the well-known version, began in 1984 when the company was founded by three brothers, James, Peter, and John Mullen. Thomas Pink soon became a tailoring staple around the globe; in the Square Mile and on Wall Street, our bright – some might say brash – shirts seemed perfectly in step with the time with bold designs that mirrored the audacious energy of the financial markets. To find out what set those first Thomas Pink shirts apart, you have to go back a little further. In the 18th century, a tailor by that name ran a small shop in central London. His bestselling product was a scarlet woolen coat created for what might euphemistically be called ‘country sports’. (The pastime Oscar Wilde famously described as “the unspeakable in full pursuit of the uneatable”.) So renowned was Mr. Pink for the coat’s premium fabric, exceptional craftsmanship, and meticulous attention to detail, that ‘Pink’ became the generic name for the garment. Thomas Pink is expanding beyond its classic offerings to explore new categories and lifestyles that appeal to a global audience—all while staying true to our London heritage. Our next chapter brings the essence of Thomas Pink into fresh markets and products, creating a connection that resonates from the Square Mile to cities worldwide. By blending our tradition of craftsmanship with a modern outlook, we’re keeping the spirit of Thomas Pink alive for a new generation, always with an eye on quality, bold design, and lasting style.
