| - I had to find a club appropriate shirt pretty last minute. It had to be red for a charity theme. I tried Mastrionni Fashions, which has served me well a few times before. No luck. Then I went near Boca Park. I figured my odds of success would increase by searching at a larger retail area. First, I tired Banana Republic across the street. They had one red button-up shirt for $60, it felt very thin and cheaply made. Then since I was there, I tried the Gap next door. No surprise, even worse luck.
Almost giving up, I shot across the street to the Men's Wearhouse. I walked in and was greeted by a nice salesman. I told him the situation, and he was eager to help. He measured my neck, arm length and chest. Then he grabbed a solid red shirt for me. It was dead-perfect. They had a 2 for 1 sale going on. He showed me the section of shirts that would fit me, and I grabbed another shirt that I liked. It was also a perfect fit. The shirts here were at least three times the quality of the crap that Banana Republic was trying to sell. Wrinkle free FTW!! And at two-for-one, they came out to about $40 each. They also had just received some great hockey sweatshirts and jackets that were also two-for-one. I grabbed two great Rangers items for my dad and got some Christmas shopping done while I was there. Everyone from the salesman to the lady ringing me up were extremely friendly and helpful. The salesman steamed my shirts and another salesman was trying to give me crap about the Rangers, suggesting I bought some Red Wings stuff instead. It gave me a pretty good laugh.
In summary, I would definitely return to this Men's Wearhouse for future purchases. I was taken care of from the moment I stepped through the door, to the moment I left. Plus, they aint just whistlin' Dixie when they "guarantee" you'll like the way you look.
How often do you get to read a review with the words "whistlin' Dixie" in it??
