History
Alton Lane was founded in 2009 by Colin Hunter and Peyton Jenkins, graduates of the University of Virginia. They both quit their jobs as a management consultant and a history teacher/commercial realtor, respectively, and cashed in their life savings to fund the business.

Showrooms
Alton Lane has showrooms in New York City, Boston, Washington D.C, Richmond, Virginia Dallas, Chicago, and San Francisco, with future locations being built in Nashville, Savannah, Georgia, and Charlottesville, Virginia.
Alton Lane operates on an appointment-only basis. Each client is measured using a 3D scanner. Clients select a style and fabric for their garment, and the measurements are sent to the manufacturer in Massachusetts where the clothing is made. In approximately 4–6 weeks, the garments are delivered directly to the client who is then invited back to the showroom for alterations.
