I've purchased several suits and shirts for work from Black Lapel. The process is great and the quality, fit and price of the clothes is exceptional. I prefer a modern fit that is appropriate for the office at a large financial services firm. Chris understood my needs and helped me select the cuts and fits that Black Lapel offers. Even better than the quality of the fit is the style advice that comes with the service.

The process is painless. Chris took many measurements on my first visit, which lasted about an hour and included a little brown liquid to help me manage through. Approximately 4 weeks later, I tried my new suit and shirt on. Chris fine tuned my measurements and identified the appropriate alterations. The alternations were finalized about two weeks later. I then ordered another suit, some additional suit pants and many shirts. Since my measurements are stored, I can order online as necessary. However, I will periodically make appointments to see Chris in person so that I can see/touch the clothes, especially the newer offerings, and get some style advice.

Great service and company - the suits are cheaper than comparable, off the rack suits that do not fit as well.
