I am new to formal headwear, and my father suggested that I go here for a proper fitting and customization. I was excited about it! It felt like a next step in my adulthood as I grow into a middle-aged vibe. I took my 12-year-old son to show him the difference in quality between a mass retailer and a bespoke, local, small business retail experience. I splurged +1k on 3 new hats. I love them, but the service was nothing like it used to be, as I understand it. This is where I would give it a much lower rating if it weren't such a great little spot. 2 Stars: The two young women working were not very knowledgeable, seemed quite apathetic, and essentially left me to my own devices to sort fit, shape, etc. out. They answered questions about care adequately and showed me several hats that I asked to see, but in a detached way. In short, it was a very disappointing experience and not bespoke at all. My father was mystified when I told him about it. I don't generally leave reviews, good or bad, unless things go too far. But after reading through the low reviews, often from long-term loyal customers who lament experiences similar to mine and the recent change in ownership, I am bothered by the defensiveness in the owner's replies. Many of them say [the milliner has resigned due to health, and therefore we no longer offer shaping or repair services] or [come in for a chat to correct your misinformation]. WHAT?! That is how you respond? On a public forum? Marketing yourself as a luxury shop but responding like a cranky clerk? Why not hire a new milliner? Or train a new one? Find a way to outsource it in the meantime. But telling decades-long high-paying customers to do it themselves at home over a kettle...what are you talking about? Should I learn to tailor and do dry cleaning in my bathtub, too? Turns out, the problem is top-down. The new owner has clearly wrecked this place and doesn't seem to care; it's all about her. Another NYC institution bites the dust. All of that said, it's a unique place. One of the last vestiges. Go there.

I do NOT recommend Bencraft Hatters! I had a terrible experience with a hat purchase in December…read more2022. I ordered a brand new Stetson Saxon in Graphite, but they sent me an old stock in Charcoal instead. The hat also did not come with a Stetson hat box but in a Bencraft hat box. When asked, Bencraft insisted that the colors are similar (they are not), and that their box is better than Stetson's because Bencraft's has a handle (I prefer Stetson's box which has on its side a paper label with hat info). I called the store several times to ask for a replacement, but nothing has been done. They also did not return calls/texts despite their promises to do so. Many calls were also not answered and went straight to voicemail. Needless to say, I am extremely disappointed in Bencraft Hatters for their lack of intent to make things right and I will be buying my hats elsewhere from now on.

I walked out with a really nice Guerra and on another occasion a Borsalino. easy to get there by train, about 1 min from the subway station. probably the last old time hat shop left in NYC. worth it. Sundays are nice days to shop, the owner is always there, I got Borsalinos there for $350 that cost $500-600 elsewhere. theyre the only guys who still steam up your hat for free,too. Overall a pretty good experience

My now husband and I walked in on a Tuesday afternoon and left less than an hour later with a great fitting suit for our wedding! He has also re-worn the suit as a wedding guest. The couple who runs this shop make the experience very personal, taking customer preferences into account and searching through the many, many suits to find one that is best fitting and to your liking. The best part -- you'll pay less than a rental from many other places. Plus they give a $15 military discount ! Shopping here was an experience that might only be had in NYC, which is much of what made it so great. I recommend for multiple reasons!

In the back of my mind I know he is setting me up because they always have the most up to date sneakers and fitted hats n they are very reasonable.

I would certainly come by again to purchase smaller gifts, but I found their clothing, while in good taste, to be extremely overpriced from the perspective of the consumer in some cases. (I've worked in vintage wear and decor before though, so I understand why and how this happens.) However, if you have the money and are looking for a specific caliber of vintage clothing, this is a great place to start, and the size of their collection will save you time versus wading through a series of larger, messier, cheaper thrift store situations.
