Oxxford Clothes was founded in 1916 by Jacob and Louise Weinberg. The misspelling of " Oxford" was intentional. In 2016 Oxxford sold its historic building in Chicago's West Loop on Van Buren Street, [4] and moved to the Southwest Side on Archer Avenue near Midway Airport. Following the move, Oxxford partnered with Richard Bennett Custom Tailors in the Loop for client fittings. [5] Oxxford Clothes currently produces nearly 8,000 suits per year, far less than the 35,000 suits Oxxford produced annually in the 1980s. [5]
