| - I have to write a review about this place because it was soo good. I came in here from a recommendation from my cousin. After checking out stores like tip top, moores, sarar and harry rosen. I went with Tom's.
Harry Rosen - suits are awesome, service is exquisite but price was waay too high for my budget. The suit that I really really liked was $2000, on sale. Next time.
Sarar- not bad suits but didn't find the sale price still the best. but not bad material. Their selection is different as well. More for the modern slim, skinny guy.
Tip top, moores - meh quality and meh material. Their clothes are starting to become like International Clothiers.
Tom's Place:
First off, when I go suit shopping, I like to scour the racks and find a whack of them and then try them all on.
When I walked in to Tom's, I started to walk by the front staff because I wanted to scour first. I then saw how big it was and knew that I would need help. I was greeted by a nice gentleman who looked like something straight out of the goodfellas. He greeted me, shook my hand, and asked me right away what I was looking for and how much my budget was. I told him looking for 2 suits and a blazer, budget - 800 - 1000. Told him I also saw the sale.
He said right away, "some of those suits you may or may not like as they are clearance. so some will work and some won't. Just letting you know." He explained it to me in a way that made me feel like giving it a shot but not pressured to go the higher route as well. He then got a sales associate by the name of Walter who was amazing to help me.
Walter asked me what types of colors I was looking for and showed me where to find my sizes and I scoured. I wanted something different then the usual black and grey. He then had me try on jackets and pants separate and always was very attentive. After a few yes's and no's and maybes, we narrowed it down. Then I said let's look for a different color. He came back with a few more at my pricepoint and I tried them on. Walter was so attentive and always came back with exactly what I wanted. I asked for a checked grey and solid grey and he came back with 3 nice ones. I took a look at others that might be decent but they didn't work. The guy knew his suits.
I was looking at some of the higher priced suits as well that weren't on sale and I really didn't find any colors I liked. When I buy a suit, I look at the color, the material and the fit and the price.
After trying on a dozen suits, we went and looked at blazers as well. Not once did I feel pressured at all. He never tried to push me on a high price suit either. I asked him to bring me one and he did but I didn't even like it.
I even found a blue pinstripe suit which I was really hunting for, for a really good price.
Finally after an hour and a half, I narrowed it down to 3 suits, a blazer and a shirt.
When it came to pricing, I was thinking to myself ok let's see how much this will set me back.
Tom Sr. came in, did a price adjustment on the suits, even the blue pinstripe as that was 450 and he brought it down to 300. It was definitely a $700 suit. I saw the same suit at the bay for that much.
I took my time because I was still leary about the price point and the blazer. They even told me, don't feel pressured that just because we tell you it looks good, you have to get it. It's your decision and your money. For him to say that made my day and my experience.
I feel like I could have negotiated a bit more but In the end I feel like I got an amazing deal with a great experience.
Keep in mind alterations are extra however they are standard prices.
I would hands down go back here again. Expect to spend a few hours though depending on what you want. I would definitely recommend people to go here for their suit needs. You have to spend some time shopping around their for the material and style you want but it's worth it. I'm going back to pick up 1 this weekend and will also take a look at some shirts and pocket squares. This place is definitely a gem.
