Scabal: The Fabric of Power, Prestige, and Purpose
From the boardrooms of London to the palaces of the Gulf, there exists a rare language of style — one that speaks not in trends, but in texture, cloth, and character. Scabal, the legendary British-Belgian mill headquartered on Savile Row, has defined that language for over 80 years. It is a house built on excellence, revered by royalty, statesmen, and the visionaries who lead the world’s financial and cultural empires.
Today, for those whose wardrobes reflect influence — football club owners, investment bankers, family office leaders, golf patrons, and private yacht owners — Scabal represents the ultimate blend of traditional luxury and modern tailoring intelligence.
Where Heritage Meets Innovation
Founded in 1938, Scabal (originally “Societé Commerciale Anglo Belgo Allemande Luxembourgeoise”) has long operated at the confluence of British tailoring heritage and continental flair. With mills located in Huddersfield, England, and design studios on Savile Row, Scabal creates cloths that are rich in legacy yet tailored for the demands of today’s elite clientele.
Every fabric is born from meticulous craftsmanship — fibers are hand-selected, spun with precision, and woven with care that borders on obsession. The result: materials that drape effortlessly yet exude authority, designed for the elite man whose life bridges continents, currencies, and cultures.
A Portfolio of Iconic Fabrics
Scabal’s fabric library is among the most sophisticated and expansive in the world — offering over 5,000 cloths, each designed with precision performance and visual command in mind.
Notable Collections Include:
- Noble Fleece: Crafted from some of the rarest Super 200s wools on earth — ideal for modern nobility and connoisseurs of softness
- Diamond Chip: Infused with actual diamond fragments, for a subtle sheen and tactile sharpness that radiates confidence.
- Summit Collection: Designed for global executives who need lightness, flexibility, and wrinkle-resistance in every hemisphere.
- Escorial Wool: Sourced from a rare sheep breed once reserved for Spanish royalty — incredibly soft, luxuriously springy

The Scabal Signature: Authority in Every Thread
While many mills offer luxury, Scabal delivers something rarer — a psychology of power stitched into the cloth. The visual weight. The tactile certainty. The structure that flatters. Scabal suits do more than drape well — they command the room without needing to shout.
This makes Scabal the natural choice for:
- Private bankers and equity titans
- Surgeons and specialists in high-stakes fields
- Collectors who pair tailored wardrobes with Patek Philippe and Ferrari
- Leaders who navigate diplomacy, finance, and fashion with equal precision

Scabal for the Sartorial Investor
True luxury lies in detail, rarity, and intention. Scabal fabrics — especially their Super 180s–200s, silk blends, and Escorial weaves — are coveted for their textural richness and structural brilliance. These are not garments you replace. They’re garments you collect, like vintage timepieces or first-edition books.
Clients of Lapels often pair their Scabal suits with:
- Handcrafted Italian shoes
- Limited-edition watches
- Family crest cufflinks
- Custom lapel pins crafted in platinum and gold
It’s not about fashion. It’s about building a wardrobe as timeless as your legacy.
