Adam needed a shirt for the wedding we were attending over the weekend so when we saw this storefront we figured we would give it a try. We spent over an hour and half in there! The saleslady assisting us was very nice and patient. Adam must've tried on at least 2-3 different shirts and more than 5 ties. She was also nice enough to steam the shirt before wrapping it up. They have this cool policy in the store where you can try to put a hole in one mini golf style for $95 off a tie for $2 (and the money goes to charity!). Sadly, both Adam and I missed. But I enjoyed playing a lot! Mini put inside a store! I was surprised no one snubbed us as we did look very ordinary. I think once Adam specifically asked to try on a shirt, they loosened up and realized we were going to buy something. That's when they got friendlier and offered us drinks. But I really only liked the lady who helped us, the rest seemed unbothered and lazy. read more

Boys with no budget can get dressed up at Dugger's. From straight-up formal wear to sports coats and casual clothes, its a place that not only sells menswear, but knows it well. Great fits for all shapes-- because yes, men come in odd sizes as well-- the staff here are professionals and do not take retail lightly. Going into Duggers and doing serious shopping calls for full-on service in a kind and cordial manor. As I accompanied a male friend in recent months on a mission for a new jacket, I observed the service as very thorough and helpful. It wasn't about a simple assistance to the change room; these people are all about getting the right fix, giving brand detailing and all the extras. Those looking to get properly outfitted and not knowing where to start can rely on Dugger's. As well, its a fine place to browse. No pressure... I like this spot, as they've got some pretty spruced up threads. Pricey but spicy, this is a place to check if you are looking to be fine and fancy. read more

Dugger's - Men's Clothing Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Duggers is the men's Mills store really. Specializing in high quality latest trends for that man in your lift that you have to remortgage your house to get for him. Walking in as my son said that he wanted a Burberry tie from Duggers for something so off I go and I though hey I will surprise him. WOW I was the one surprised $160 ahh no! I think Courtney said it best in her review if you are not already wearing it they think you are not purchasing it. But hey if you remember Pretty Woman she had someones plastic. So never judge a book by its cover as it might surprise you in the end. I do have to say this is the kind of store that Mr Big would be at shopping. The men's cloths are actually really nice and sharp. Gotta love a man in a nice black pinstripe. D2 like the other have said is more trendy but really not my thing as I am not a rack of bones that has money to burn. So even thought this store is beautiful to look at it is not a frequent for me. read more

A Store for the Rich. But you should still go ;) I love Dugger's. Not because I can afford less than 10% of the items they have there. But because it inspires me to hopefully become wealthy enough to walk into a store like this, drop down my gold visa card and buy whatever I want. This is an amazing clothing store! Almost everything I put on looks good on me. And I'm definitely not a model. The staff are as professional as it gets and very helpful. They don't seem to judge a person when they come in, even if you are in shorts, t-shirt and sandals. The store also offers plenty of services. On site tailoring and, believe it or not, a kids room! Walk downstairs, and you will find a really cool store called D2. It is geared more towards the fashionable twenty year olds. The prices aren't that much better than upstairs. And many of the clothes you will find down there, I can find in most thrift stores. So I tend to avoid buying anything down there, but I'm always browsing just in case. Dugger's is the only Men's wear store in Halifax that I know of with High-End clothing and service geared towards people with deep pockets. Some may see this is a strike on the store, but I say its fun to walk inside and believe you are rich for a few minutes. From time-to-time I have bought a belt here, a tie there. I always have a staff person beside me, eager to please. With all the clothing stores trying to sell at prices easily affordable by the average person, its nice to find a store that proudly shows off its high prices but also has clothing you believe deserves to be sold at those prices. So walk on in and feel like a King for five minutes. I dare you. read more

Dugger's - Men's Clothing Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

See all

Boys get the best clothing choices, in my opinion, and the D2 shop downstairs at Duggers has some cool, trendy men's clothing, for the clubby man in you. But - I'll say it - I like some of the clothes here, too, especially the t-shirts, hoodies and belts. D2 does sell some women's clothing but it's all that teeny-tiny stuff that no one older than 12 can wear. Also, anyone who isn't an offshore oil tycoon can't afford to buy much here, so it's more or less just a fun place to browse. read more

Dugger's - Men's Clothing Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

I've been shopping there for 4+ years and have been very pleased with the staff ,buying assistance, and the clothing. The cost for things like 100% cotton Eton shirts , Brax pants, or Hugo Boss suits are high but the quality / selection is amazing. I've worn some shirts for 3 years that look almost new: cold machine wash and hang to dry.Dryclean pants. If you can find something you love that fits perfectly( and they have excellent tailoring services on site) buy it if you can afford it. You won't be disappointed .I've been to similar stores in NYC but the selection/ help finding / ordering things is unrivalled at this store. read more

Back when I got engaged, I decided that I would invest in a good suit instead of renting a tux at the likes of Moore's. After being a groomsman more than a few times, I haven't had one rental that has actually fit me. I don't know why they take measurements if they're just going to give you the closest thing instead of actually adjusting clothes to fit. I came in with a style in mind, grey and not too heavily patterned, and was seen to quickly and soon had a few suits to try on. I was offered a drink, but having recently gorged on a sizable lunch, decided that getting more bloated probably wasn't a good choice. I settled on a Hugo Boss suit that had a subtle pattern to it, and fit almost perfectly right off the rack, needing only minor adjustments. Adjustments were done quickly in a week, and probably could have been done sooner but I wasn't in a rush, and at no extra charge. I was against offered a drink when I came to pick it up but I thought that given the short amount of time I would be there, chugging a beer or glass of wine would be a bit uncouth. I'm not one who likes to do a lot of clothes shopping, so being able to find something I really liked, and quickly, was great. It certainly wasn't cheap, but I'll get more of my money's worth out of this than my fiancee's wedding dress which, while much cheaper, will only be worn once. Hopefully. read more

Ive never gone to duggers without buying something, but every time I go there I'm followed around like a common thief. Every visit is very uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Spend hundreds of dollars and get treated like scum. Not to mention the ridiculous mark ups on everything they sell. Very stuck up staff who look down on the average customer. Today will be my last visit. read more

Unbelievably poor service. I walked in today with a t shirt and jeans ready to buy a couple suits. I am the CEO of a local tech company yet seemingly did not fit the description of their customer. I walked around the store for 15 minutes looking at suits. No one came to help me and in fact I saw them walk away. When I raised my point the three service people gave some lame excuses. Can't say I've felt this disrespected in a store before. Was going to give the local guys a shot despite higher prices but now I'll go back to buying suits in other cities for better selection and especially service. read more

While sure, I'd love to say I have the means and class to review a store that sells $2,000 Hugo Boss suits (which I've definitely gone in just to try on...), I'm focusing mostly on the lower level of this Spring Garden staple - D2. It's like the rowdy, hip and creative teenaged son who refused to go to university of the stuffy Dugger's household. Unfortunately, D2 is was one of the few places in the city to get a reliable source of designer brands and top end labels. While they're selection is fantastic, it's marked up within an inch of its life mostly because there's no competition in that space. Well, unless you for any reason end up in the States in which case their prices are absolutely ludicrous for standard US brands like Seven for All Mankind, True Religion and especially Diesel. Still, I can't help but love everything about this store. Between the product and the decor, nowhere else has the same sort of excitement for men's clothing. Everything is pretty unique, interesting, and totally dangerous for my credit card which I still struggle to remember is real money. Combined with a popcorn machine, the backseat of an old car for seating, and club music, D2 really is the shit. I've always found the staff to be incredibly helpful and fun to chat to and with great sales every now and then, the product isn't entirely out of reach. Or, if you need to get a spending fix without a price tag in the hundreds, you can always pick up a great pair of underwear from Calvin Klein or Ginch Gonch. Personally, I tend to save my luxury lust for their incredible belts and shoes. The gripes? Well, it mostly comes back to the obscene markup but I guess if you can get away with it, why wouldn't you? People still shop here and still fork out the dough for stuff they really want. Hell, I'VE done it so who am I to complain? Second, the sizes are pretty limited especially when you consider that a large base of fashionable men in the city are usually all within the same size range. Within a few days of new stock coming in, you can expect most of it to be in the XL-XXL range. I've considered just eating a lot in order to be able to shop more freely, but friends have told me that would be a bad idea. read more

Good luck getting any recognition in this shop if you happen to look like a normal 20-something. ie: Aren't wearing a Hugo Boss suit with complimentary Burberry tie and Kenneth Cole shoes. I have popped into this shop more than once checking out ties etc for gifts and haven't ever been offered any help. Poor sales strategy to say the least in a university town. D2 downstairs offers clothes at a slightly more reasonable price, and for a younger population. This shop occasionally has clearance sales so keep your eyes and ears peeled. read more

*review is for D2, downstairs!* Uh, this place has a popcorn machine. How wicked is that? Had it been working on the day I visited, it may have upped the stars on this review. As it stands I wasn't overly impressed, it's basically a young-urban-dude store with a smaller women's section in back that's not really my style. Went with my boyfriend, tracking down a new winter coat. We found some really nice ones here but they were out of our price range. They carry a good selection of Canada Goose jackets, which are top quality but definitely top end prices, too. Other coats were decent, but nothing too special and again, expensive. I don't really expect it in places like this, but I'm pleased to report that the sales-dude who helped us was actually fantastic. Really helpful, friendly and understanding when, in the end, we couldn't spend $700 on a jacket. read more

Dugger's - Men's Clothing Near Me - Halifax, Nova Scotia

Dugger's located on Spring Garden is one of the higher end stores for men. There are two levels, the top will carry the higher end and the lower is for the younger crowd. The only way I can even think of shopping here is when a sale is on. I have to say though, I did love the clothes. read more

Unfriendly and unwelcoming staff. I always get the impression that I'm not supposed to be there, despite the fact that I bought a $450 suit off them. Great suit, and great products, but most things are ridiculously overpriced. read more

Always a pleasure to shop at Duggers. Exceptional service, atmosphere and selection, Halifax is fortunate to have a shop like this.

My name is Robert (Bob), I have known Ross and his dad Dugger for over 30 years. I am very proud of where they have taken this store. I may not dress this way very much but when I do, it is in Duggers style. I probably only visit once or twice a year, but when i do the service is even better than the product, even if dad and son are not present. I do own a Boss suit, which Ross conned me into, and i feel great in it, my son lives in Belgium and loves to visit when he is home. Regards Robert Martin read more

Why is it that whenever I enter the store, I get looked over then overlooked. It is a lovely store but the staff are clearly too judgemental and visibly arrogant. Today was my last attempt. And perhaps if they had noted my Church Dubai brushed Oxford shoes, they may have made an effort. But alas to no avail. So I went to Colwell Brothers and made my purchases. Word of advice #1: I can afford the prices. A non-issue for me. But if you are unable to back the price with a sale, then you need to reconsider your business model. Word of advice #2: if you are a store "associate" and you happen to lock eyes with a customer momentarily, at least smile if you are not bothered to offer assistance. read more

The sidewalk sale is a good deal for Halifax on brand names but if you are looking for service you will not find it during the sidewalk sale. I went from 1st class to 3rd class at the sidewalk sale no beer no changing room that is right just guess if it fits and buy it no return policy in effect and these not sure what to call them but cow call lines to direct sidewalk people stright to the cash as if we are not even allowed in the store. I found the whole experence sickening. I will never shop another sidewalk sale ever again. I would rather either buy at an outlet while on vacation or pay full price at a flagship store in America or pay full price like I used to at duggers for the new arrivals while enjoying a beer or two and chating up with my sales guy. read more

While I find their clothes much more intriguing than Wal-Mart, the fact that all of the staff members were eating chips and were working full time at ignoring the 6 or 8 customers has turned me off the bargain basement of this store. If I am going to spend $100 on a t-shirt that costs $4 at Wal-Mart than I want you to kiss my ass. Or at the very least acknowledge my existence. I do not understand the inverse equation that is defined as the higher the price the worse the service. I am aware that most of these brands are not available anywhere else in Halifax and you probably think you are soooo special because you work in such a store, but I imagine you make the same salary as a Wal-Mart employee so please get those heads out of those asses. I do not mean to disparage Wal-Mart, quite the opposite. I will save my money for the US or for a store that knows the value of money and products. 100% cotton is the same no matter what label is stitched on the neck. Diesel and Hanes are the same, trust me. read more

Duggers is played out. They have some great staff, and I would enjoy shopping there, but it's the same story every time I go. They buy low quality mainstream brand products, sell them at premium prices, and are CONSTANTLY out of the popular sizes. I'm referring primarily to D2, the more urban-focused downstairs level, but the upstairs level is the definition of stuffy. You can practically smell the arthritis cream from the street. There is absolutely no impression that anyone running the place knows anything about current fashion. The theme? Boring, neutral colours, ill-fitting old-fashioned Ralph Lauren, poor-quality stuff from brands like the Original Penguin and Scotch & Soda, overpriced poor-quality stuff from Boss and Lacoste, and occasionally some decent finds. There's no innovation here. None of the up-and-coming brands, and a noticeable lack of quality merchandise. It blows me away - I've been living in Halifax for 5 years and have gone in on at least 10 separate occasions to find either a pair of jeans or chinos and have never once been able to find a pair. They are ALWAYS out of the popular sizes. ALWAYS. I just want to shake their buyer. Finding menswear in Halifax is difficult, but save your time - don't bother sifting through their bargain-basement style tables of XXL clothes. Either shop online or check out some of the cool shops in the city like RCHMND, who carry a smaller, seasonal selection of quality goods from really cool brands from around the world. read more

My fiancé and I had a couple wonderful experiences at Dugger's! Both of us hate shopping - but needed a clean, casual and most importantly COMFORTABLE look for our upcoming wedding. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and were immediately greeted by Karl who was ready to help. I told Karl my vision and he immediately went for the shirt I never knew we needed. They didn't have the size my boyfriend needed, so Karl special ordered it in and kept me updated via text (which is super convenient since I never answer my phone). I waited weeks before going in to pick up the shirt (LIFE) but when I went in this evening I was greeting by Erin who was keen to help, and also Ross who literally pulled a pair of pants of the shelf that matched PERFECTLY to the picture of my dress I showed them both. I was shook and impressed. The customer service and knowledge outweighs the cost of the garment ten fold. 10/10 would recommend !!!! read more

The place to shop to look #likeaboss. Only four stars because they were unable to serve me a #cafelatte while I shopped.

With my Sons graduation coming up and collage just around the corner it was time to step up and buy him his first quality well tailored suit. Living 2 1/2 hours from Halifax, the finest clothes around come from Walmart. This not being an option and us being fairly new to the area we went online and made a list of the very few men's clothing stores in the city. As soon as we stepped through the door of Dugger's, I turned to my Son and said "this is the right place. " We were immediately greeted by Ross, the owner of the store and for the next hour or so he made our shopping experience the most pleasant one that I have had since moving here. His taste is impeccable and he introduced my Son to a style of clothing which he was not accustomed to but was instantly taken with. He didn't know if I was a man of means or on a very tight budget but he treated us like gold just the same and made us feel right at home. The suit that he helped pick out was perfect in every way except for the cost which was a bit beyond what I was hoping to spend. Coming from SoCal I am very much aware of what fine clothes cost and although it was more than I was hoping to spend I did it anyway. One of the main reasons was Ross and the service he gave us. He helped me introduce my Son to the World of being a well dressed Man as well as how to be a World class salesman . Thank you Ross and the entire staff, you made our shopping experience one that we will always remember. You have our business for life. read more

The associates did not rush over to help me, which I prefer, really. I like to look around and get a feeling for the store without someone trying to sell me everything. Once I needed help they were quite friendly and professional. I would certainly shop here again. People who say that 20-somethings aren't being served here must be used to stores where all the salespeople follow you around. Next time I need something new, I know where I am heading. read more

They have a good selection of quality men's clothing. I've bought a few things from them over the year but I think I'm going to start shopping elsewhere. They really DO ignore you if you don't look like a rich middle aged+ man. I'm someone in my mid 20's looking to outfit myself with a new wardrobe of dress clothes for a high end job I'm entering and I've felt outright ignored many times at Dugger's due to my age. I've felt downright invisible at times. For me, it's time to start searching elsewhere. read more

My husband and I started our first hunt for suits this week. He has a hard time fitting into them because he has a trim waistline and broad shoulders. As we are both full time students we are definitely on a budget, so we tried all of the other avenues before we realized our only option was Duggers. We had a time constraint, so I called Duggers up and asked if coming in on Thursday and receiving the tailored suit by Friday night would even be an option. The man on the phone was very friendly and asked that we come in right when they open, so there would be more time for their tailor to work on it. Also, because it was my husband's first suit, he recommended we ask for David. That night,we looked at the online reviews here and were increasingly worried that the service was going to be bad, and the suit overpriced. We googled all of the brand names the website provided in order to look at approximate costs of the suits and our anxiety only increased. We figured the cheapest suit there would be over $1000 (based on the google searches and the reviews). After a lot of consideration, we decided the absolute maximum we would pay for the suit would be $1200. Thursday morning we asked for David, and we explained this is a first suit, we are students on a budget, and we did tell him our monetary limit. He said suits start around $780, and that most of their suits actually fell within our limit, so we proceeded to look for the perfect suit. David was simply amazing. He had my husband put on a Hugo Boss to start, and because of my husband's body shape it looked as weird as the Moores' suits had looked on him. Immediately however, David knew which suit would be the one. He fit him in it perfectly, and then arranged for the suit to be ready for the next evening. The price was only $895 after tax which indicated to me David was looking for a satisfied customer, and didn't feel the need to send us off with the most expensive suit within our budget. Also, we were not in a position to buy a shirt or tie there, but he gave us excellent advice on what to look for in order to look sharp. The way we were treated lifted our spirits, and we were looking forward to going back there the next evening. When we arrived to pick up the suit David was not there, but there were two men able to help us. We were told the tailor was finishing up and asked if we wanted coffee while we waited. Instead we asked them to look over our choices we had made on shirt and tie. They loved the tie choice (Value Village), and even made the tie ready for us so that it just needed to be tightened the next morning. I asked about a pocket square and he was able to help me with that too. When the suit was ready, my husband put it on with the shirt and tie and he felt like a million bucks. All of the staff we came across there treated us very well, and they have made a life customer out of my husband. read more

Very very expensive. I went in on a saturday with jeans and a hoodie on and the service wasn't great at all because I didn't look like a big spender. A huge selection of stuff at a steep price tag but I treat myself to a new outfit for my office job once a month and I go here. read more

When I go into a store employees know me by name. However walking into D2 on my first visit three employees stand behind the counter chatting without even giving me a simple smile. After some time me and my friend had some items in our arms. One guy came by and said "the fitting rooms are over there." We tried the desired articles on but I wasn't sold on any of the pieces. As we put the clothes away that we tried on the same guy came over and said "how'd you make out?" Well at that point I wasn't interested in giving this place my money today. So I just replied with a not so good and he walked away. Totally weird that he didn't even offer to put the clothes away. Then I went back a few weeks later and this one girl helped me right away. She was amazing and so helpful. I would definitely shop there again when she's there. She really knows how to treat a person without applying too much pressure to buy. She was more like the friend you want to go shopping with you. I called a couple days ago and with a question and the guy who picked up the phone answered the question abruptly and I asked another question and he replied quickly and then hung up the phone. I am sure I will use this store as a showroom to find the fits of the desired items and then purchase online. I mean really who doesn't love receiving a package in the mail. Maybe over time they will improve their standards at D2. Overall really disappointed with the choice for most of the staff. Luckily I know what I like when I have it on. read more

I had an absolutely awful experience at Duggers. The products that Dugger's carries are excellent, but the service I received after I made the purchase showed their true colors. The tailor job I received was very shoddy on the suit I purchased. In fact, I had to take my suit to "The Suitor" to be appropriately tailored afterwards (and received a very fair price at "The Suitor"), and luckily the owner there was generous enough to fix Dugger's awful workmanship on a very expensive suit. After that debacle, I asked Dugger's for a vest to be custom made for me to match the suit which I had purchased there (a Canali). I would have had this done via another store, but unfortunately Dugger's is the only place in Halifax which deals with Canali. The suit and vest were for my wedding. Dugger's had to special order the material to make the vest from Canali, and the salesperson assured me multiple times that it was coming, but I am quite confident that he forgot on multiple occasions. Every time I emailed or called to inquire about it, it took him a moment to remember me and my issue (despite having spent over $2,000 on a suit there). Moreover, it took him weeks to respond to my e-mails despite him telling me that he would respond to my emails right away when I first purchased the suit from him. Furthermore, by the time the material for the vest arrived, it was the WRONG material and there was only 1 month left before the wedding, making it impossible for the proper vest material to arrive from Canali in time for a vest to be tailored. Did I mention that I bought the suit in November, 2011 and that I needed the vest by September, 2012 (the following year)? That gave Dugger's 10 months to get their act together and they still failed to do anything right.The salesperson didn't ever seem concerned with my plight (despite this suit being for my wedding and having given him more than enough time to get this done properly). It was clear that he made a good commission off the original suit I purchased and that the vest was more of a hassle to him that wouldn't really pay off in the end. I can honestly say that I will never purchase anything from Dugger's again, and every time anyone I know ever mentions going to Dugger's, I actively tell them to avoid that business (if you can call it a business) after explaining the terrible customer service I received there. A lesson for any store - the sale and service doesn't stop after the original purchase! Not everything is about the product, but how you're treated after you purchase it. read more
