| Ok, so the style’s “a little old-school” (“makes a 30-year-old look like a 50-year-old” jesters jibe), but “if you want an American-made” suit, “hand-tailored” from “the finest” fabric, this Midtowner is exactly “what a quality men’s haberdasher should be”; “great” staffers also guide you through the “very good selection of accessories” and sportswear, and while prices are “not for the faint of wallet”, the “business-crowd” clientele amortizes the cost, knowing their purchase “will last forever”; N.B. the new Financial District branch specializes in custom orders. |
