This is a shop that can satisfy the needs of the hipster who needs to dress up his retro a little bit, along with young professionals who want some classic flair. Yes, you can wear a tweed jacket over raw-selvedge denim jeans and make it look good. The shop's got a good selection of both new and old, the buying for vintage clothes is done well, and prices are very reasonable. If you wanna class up your act a little bit without breaking the bank, guys - this is a good place to stop. It's a little bit rockabilly, a little bit Mad Men, and a little bit Animal Collective. Enjoy.

I like this place! The selection is really carefully chosen and the interior decorating is pretty…read moregorgeous. Hampden doesn't really have any other mens clothing stores (except thrift shops) so its a great addition to the neighborhood. Think of it like the sister...er..brother store to Double Dutch. Sixteen Tons also carries other man-gifts like wallets, cologne, belts, ties, hats, etc. The clothing can be quite pricey, depending on the item, but I did recently notice a sale bin! It's difficult for me to get my boyfriend to step into an actual store, or buy something vintage ("If its used, should it be cheaper?"), so its best that I come here alone and bring back what he doesn't want. I always end up asking a bunch of questions when I'm here- usually about sizing. When the owner is in the shop, he is warm and super friendly and helpful. There is another employee who always seems annoyed that I have the nerve to ask about an item; I really can't take that type of attitude. Customer service, man! I'm hesitant to dock Sixteen Tons a star because of this one guy's attitude. The owner has true vision and really caters to his clientele. He has helpful tips (more ties coming in next week!), good suggestions (how about a cool vintage belt for the guy who has everything?) and asks the right questions to really try to understand who you're buying for. He should pass these skills on to his employees!

The answer is absolutely no!…read more Every time I go to this location, the service is horrendous. None of the sizes are where they are supposed to be. I found my dream dress, but it had stains on the shoulder. I ask for a possible discount and I was told no but I can tell you how to get that stain out. Are you kidding me? I had to dig through so many racks, that weren't even my size to find this dress and this is the response that I get. The service at checkout also horrendous. I walk up to the cashier. She says absolutely nothing I pay and she just folds up the garment and puts it in front of me with the receipt on top. I had to ask for a bag and she rolled her eyes and charged me the five cents for the back put the garment in the bag and just gave it to me no thank you nothing. I am never going back to this location. I feel like I go back once a year and I realize why I hadn't gone in so long.

The suiting experience at Brimble & Clark is nothing short of exceptional. The attention to detail…read moreand the level of customization on Brimble & Clark suits are incredible, but it's the fit that really separates Brimble & Clark from everyone else. Sim, takes more than a dozen measurements to ensure that the fit of each suit (by far the most important aspect of any suit) is absolutely perfect. These suits fit better than any other clothing I've ever owned. And the customer service here is nothing short of exceptional, as well. Sim has gone above and beyond to make sure that each suit and shirt I purchased were exactly as I wanted them and that they arrived on time. Brimble & Clark was not my first bespoke suit experience, but it has been by far my best. I will be lifelong customer of Brimble & Clark because of Sim and the excellent suits and customer service he delivers time and again.

Either the suits looked flat on me, were of a material that made me sweat instantly, or simply didn't stand out. In comes Brimble and Clark. These are custom pieces of art that will be unlike any other piece in your wardrobe. They accentuate everything you want accentuated better than I have ever experienced, they feel tough but impossibly light, and every little detail just sings in a chorus of perfection. Sim couldn't be more professional and fun to work with throughout the process, and all his wardrobe recommendations that come up in conversation seem to only amplify the master of his craft. Between the garments, Sim's guidance, and all of his extra fashion advice I can't find a better suiting solution than Brimble and Clark. I can't rave enough about my experience at Brimble and Clark, and I know I'll be saving up for more garments in the future.

Many of you already know how much I love CSC and mr favorite Jacket of all time is from these guys!…read moreNever gotten more compliments in my life than when I am wearing CS. This review is more about some of the new extras they now have available at the shop. I am a big fan of Baxter Men's products and grooming tools. CSC now has almost all of them in stock at the shop so I no longer need to go online to have them sent to me. I've tried moisturizers, beard cream, pomade, custom combs and the fragrance soap bars! SO if you want to not only look good, but also smell and feel good definitely remember to check out that option!

The clothes are fantastic in many cases. But the selection is so limited, and new merchandise so…read moreinfrequent that popular sizes sell down to a handful of pieces. And yes, the prices are very dear. The service is good, if a bit obtrusive. I prefer to browse through clothes on my own first, without someone following me around and making suggestions. Yeah, I was looking at that jacket, and that shirt and those cords would go nicely with it, but you're being distracting and I'm not looking to be "styled". That being said, I now have a pair of Italian merino flannel trousers that fit like a glove and are phenomenally comfortable and sharp-looking. I would consider Gian Marco an option for investment woolens in classic cuts.

The answer: here. The clothes here are top-shelf. There is a tailor on call. The employees are also really helpful. Also, I once spilled coffee on my tie, had a big meeting and this was the only place in Mt Vernon where I could run out and buy another one (60 bills!). So why three stars and a half? Because the size selection here is lacking (though this may be because it is a small shop). And because the prices are just so high. If I could afford to drop 1,200 on a blazer, maybe I could appreciate it more. Until then (read: never), I will continue looking in the window and thinking I'd rather go to Italy than buy a pair of shoes that'd pay my way there.
