Hardy Minnis

A hallmark of British elegance, Hardy Minnis carries a legacy of over a century in fine cloth making, proudly holding a Royal Warrant from Queen Elizabeth II. With roots tracing back to 1890, the company was officially formed in the 1960s through the merger of two distinguished merchants: John G Hardy and J&J Minnis.

Known for producing luxurious worsted suiting cloths and traditional country tweeds, Hardy Minnis weaves together innovation and heritage. Their Alsport tweeds, first worn by the Royal Family in 1929, remain a celebrated staple, while the brand’s Ludo cloths and refined formalwear ranges continue to attract connoisseurs of British tailoring worldwide.

All fabrics are woven in England, with uncompromising attention to detail, texture, and longevity. Whether a classic estate check or a sleek Super 120s suiting, Hardy Minnis cloths deliver a distinctively English sophistication, suitable for royalty and modern gentlemen alike.

At Knightsman, we select Hardy Minnis for clients who value timeless style, subtle prestige, and the assurance of Royal-endorsed quality.
