*updated stars after communication from owner* I think the quality at Alan David is very good--my previous suit from them is excellent and gets frequent compliments. That's why I returned in May 2025 to order a sportcoat. Unfortunately, the customer service this time fell short of my expectations. By late August, I realized I hadn't heard anything about the order and called for an update. I was told the fabric had been out of stock and later delayed due to the factory's vacation schedule, which seemed reasonable enough. In September, they contacted me for a fitting, but the appointment date inadvertently fell on a holiday when the store was closed. I rescheduled for October. At that visit, I was told the jacket would be ready in a few weeks, but again, no one reached out. In December--more than six months after ordering--I called once more and received a text saying they'd follow up with an estimated date. When I expressed frustration about the lengthy delay, they acknowledged that the initial order had been submitted late, which contradicted earlier explanations. To their credit, they took responsibility and offered a generous store credit, which was appreciated but not expected. The reason for my three-star rating isn't the final product, which was fine, but the lack of proactive communication. I had to repeatedly contact them just to understand what was happening with an order that had been paid for months earlier. Even my salesperson at Macy's is more proactive--and I don't spend thousands of dollars at a time there. My husband has had consistently positive experiences at Alan David, so I do believe my situation was an outlier and wouldn't discourage others from trying them. They ultimately handled the service recovery well; I only wish the issue had been acknowledged and addressed earlier. My hope is simply that their follow-up and order tracking become more reliable moving forward because otherwise, you might be left with the feeling that once you've paid, nobody really cares. read more

Well? I'm not as impressed with Alan David as the yelp* community. I met with stylist Jeremy and chose a beautiful Reda fabric for my sports coat. I also chose blue paisley lining, along with a fabulous brown button. When I was being measured I pleaded with the fitter not to make the garment too tight. Bespoke tailors have a tendency to do this. When I returned for fitting number one I mentioned that the draft was too tight. Fitting number two was still too tight, so they opened up the jacket as far as it could go. As of now the jacket fits, but if I gain two pounds I'm going to be out of luck. Add to this that it took eight weeks to finish the product and I'm not very happy. My future business will be going to Albert Lam and Joseph Genuardi. read more

What an incredible journey crafting shirts and sport jackets. Multiple visits. Fitting after fitting. Ensuring everything fits seamlessly and to finally see the amount of craftsmanship and dedication to an unbelievable craft is beyond words. Special thank you to Jay, Alan David himself, and all the other incredible people who helped me with this. I absolutely love my jacket and shirt. Stylish and modern. Sophisticated and contemporary. Thank you again for such incredible work and customer service! read more

I had another great experience getting a custom double-breasted suit made here. I've worked with them before and I'm always impressed by the quality. The craftsmanship really stands out the stitching, the fit, and the overall finish are excellent. You can tell it's truly custom made. Gioia helped me this time and she is so lovely. She was very attentive and really took the time to understand what I was looking for. She made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Neal handled the measurements and was extremely thorough. I mentioned that I'm actively losing weight, and he made sure to take that into account so the suit would still fit well as my body changes. That level of care really stood out to me. Alan was also incredibly generous. I was able to use a store credit he had provided, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about his customers and wants to make sure everything goes well. That kind of service is rare these days. The Madison Avenue showroom is beautiful and the whole team makes you feel very welcome. I've had a really positive experience every time I've come here. If you're looking for a custom suit, jacket, or dress coat, this is definitely a place worth checking out. read more

If you have a special occasion like a wedding coming up, this is the only place you need. I love that they are open on Sundays. It's hard to come during the work week. Charlie has been amazing!! He helped me put together a custom sport coat and made great recommendations. Also, I wanted a custom shirt but the date I needed it by wouldn't work. Charlie suggested other places in the area. Excellent customer service and know that they will give you the best advice. read more

One thing that puts the battery in my back is meeting people who have niche passions, for no other reason than passions sake. Alan David is more passionate about suits than anyone I have ever met. He used words I never thought would be used to describe a suit. "This particular suit is conversational"... my head began to spin. How can a suit be conversational? Well when you really sit and think about it... Another bar he dropped was "when you're making a custom suit, create something. Not for the sake of trying to be different, but for the sake of creating something." In this world where AI will take most of our 9-5s, I felt that on a spiritual level. Only human creativity and passion will really matter. I came in on the first appointment, picked my fabric and type of cut the suit would be, and got my measurements with the help of Neil and Jay. This was my first experience of a custom made suit, and I felt like a little kid on Christmas getting to pick out my suit. It's such a luxury. Even though it's a pretty penny, I feel like everyone should have this experience once in their life. A few weeks later, I came to pick up my subtly plaid Loro Piana suit jacket with my name stitched on the inside. I felt like Indian Jones holding the Holy Grail Chalice. It's beautiful. Catch me in this at EVERY semi-formal/formal event I go to for the rest of my days on this earth, and after, my son will carry on its legacy. I walked in for a Loro Piana custom suit jacket, but walked out inspired with a fully charged battery and a huge fan of Alan David and his entire team. THANK YOU AD!

I had a nice suit. For many, many years. But after wearing it to a funeral, I noticed the jacket had a few holes. Moths perhaps. Yikes !!! So after doing some research, I came across "Alan David Custom" (hoping they could fix it). I spoke with a very stylish Frenchman who works there named Jay. He carefully examined the garment and said that to fix it, would cost almost the same as a new, made to measure tailored suit. Jay said whenever you are ready, come back, ask for me and let's see what we can do. No pressure. After a few months, I returned and was ready to start the process of having my first custom made suit. The whole experience was thorough and quite enjoyable. Never tedious, boring or at all a hassle. Hundreds of fabrics to choose from in all sorts of weights, patterns and materials. You pick your lining, cut/style, how you want it to fit, and when do you need it. Every detail you can think of. The best part was having an experienced tailor at my side. Giving valid advice and opinion, that was in my best interest. Because...Jay wanted me to look my best. After about 4 weeks, I came back to try on the suit. To me, it fit like a glove. But to Jay, it needed a few adjustments. A couple of weeks later, VOILA !!! My suit, with my name inside on the label, was ready. Along with a shirt that Jay had made for me. The suit is impeccable. Compliments galore. Now you may think..."a custom suit ?!?! Why ? Must have cost a fortune !" But not the case. They have fabrics for all budgets. Plus, something like this will last a lifetime. After going through this wonderful experience, I will never buy off the back again. Nor will I ever have to. read more

Came for a private event to celebrate Alan David Custom being named the exclusive provider of Oxxford garments for NYC. Okay, what does this mean? Oxxford is a luxury menswear brand that makes high quality custom suits and is one of the few remaining manufacturers in the U.S. that offers handmade and fine-tailored quality pieces. You can't think "bespoke" without correlating it to Oxxford. Period. So when my husband was invited to attend I happily tagged along! (Party was catered, heehee!) but in all seriousness, the new showroom on Madison ave with floor-to-ceiling windows really sets the vibe to assure you that you WILL be taken care of and you're gonna look DAMN good by the end. Alan Horowitz said a few sweet words of gratitude, a true cutie patootie, and his family were all smiles seated together & watching from across the crowd. Jay, tall funny French guy, was pure energy and charm and when him and my husband get together I have to peel him away or else it's jokes and laughs all night. I do have to thank him for expertly catering to my husband's pickiness and helping him acquire multiple gorgeous custom suits. It's nice to have someone else see my husband's vision because to be honest...sometimes I don't! But the man knows what he likes and I've gotta hand it to him...he's got great taste. ;-) read more

As a new customer, I had an outstanding experience from start to finish. Elsie called me back within 10 minutes of my appointment request to confirm everything and even made a point to come say hello when I arrived, which I really appreciated. Emily was absolutely exceptional. Her energy, attention to detail, and knowledge were incredibly impressive, and she provided some of the best customer service I have ever received. After meeting with her, I went to one other appointment out of a few I had scheduled and ended up canceling all the rest so I could come back and work with her. She truly knows how to do this the right way. Michelle was also fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and someone who made me feel very confident in how I'm going to look. Overall, this team delivered an exceptional experience, and I'm very grateful for the professionalism, warmth, and care they showed throughout the process. Highly recommend. read more

This was my second order with Alan David and it really speaks to their integrity. I ordered a few shirts, pants, and a blazer. Unfortunately there some mishaps with timing and it ended up taking a lot longer than anticipated for the clothes to be ready. Phillip and the team were fantastic throughout and worked with me to expedite things as much as possible. The clothes are fantastic & I was really appreciative of their willingness to go above and beyond. Was it hard / frustrating to wait so long? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes. Will I go back again? Absolutely read more

Not only am I better looking now, I am smarter too. Let me explain. Objectively, I have *never* looked better than I do in my bespoke Alan David sports coat. When I wear it, I become a compliment magnet. (Is this what it's like to be Timothee Chalamet?) I feel amazing too, it's like I grew three inches taller. I'm not a stranger to suits (pre-COVID, I wore one to work every day) and I've done the "made-to-measure" thing before. I was blown away by how vastly better this was. The best comparison I have is the difference between ordering the house white at your local Italian spot versus taking a guided tour of a French winery with an expert sommelier. Not only did I receive a immensely superior product, I came away a more sophisticated and educated consumer. Tony was my "suit sommelier" (okay, fine, tailor) and explained the fabric varietals, "super" numbers, and fitting, eventually guiding me to an all-caps BEAUTIFUL Loro Piana wool. The price may be more than an off-the-rack department store experience but the end result is infinitely worth it. read more

Fantastic experience every time I go here. Custom made clothing with superior service. The prices are slightly premium but not outrageous. The staffers are always friendly and efficient. They also routinely get done earlier then expected read more

When my father was young, his mother suggested he get a new suit and find a job. "Beware of all enterprises that require new clothes!." he argued quoting Henry David Thoreau. As legend has it she thundered back: "Oh grow up!" As usual my grandmother was right. And so it was with this story in mind that I found myself looking for something special to wear to my own daughter's baby shower. Yelp steered me towards Alan David, and before I knew it swatches of Loro Piana fabric not yet released to the public were being pulled from back rooms and these artisans went to work. The style and fit of what followed was nothing short of perfect. While I would probably follow in my father's footsteps and argue that the clothes alone do not make the man, they are a bloody good place to start. read more

For those of us who tend not to fit into off-the-rack menswear well, Alan David is one of the very few options left in New York City. I have bought bespoke clothing in London and Hong Kong, and I would rate the quality of what Alan David makes as similar, if not slightly higher. Anyone who has bought bespoke menswear knows that there are dozens of measurements and specifications for any garment. A mistake here or there is almost inevitable in this business. In contrast to other operations, Alan David goes to extraordinary lengths to make it right when a mistake happens. I was blown away by the quality of the packaging when they recently rush-shipped a dress shirt (not even a suit or a tuxedo) to me. read more

The service I experienced at Alan David was unparalleled. I have never been fitted for a suit before, but this was a top knotch first experience. They had a plethora of options to create a stylish and bold suit that had my personality in it. I will heed their wonderful advice and "where it as often as I can. And love it" read more

I came here for a custom jacket a few months back, and its nothing short of amazing. The fit is perfect and material is great! I have gotten compliments every time I wore it. The customer service was excellent. They guided me through customization with expertise and care. For those seeking a stylish, comfortable, and high quality custom suit, I highly recommend Alan David Custom. It is more than a purchase; it is an investment in your style and confidence!! read more

If you want a perfect suit that last for lifetime, you need to come here to get it. They custom made every single piece by hand and alteration for free for life. Especially for your special lifetime event, it's worth spending extra penny to have the custom suit that fits perfectly to your body and look good on the camera. The appointment was quite easy to make. And the first appointment might take a minute, you need to pick fabric, pick lining and styles. So I recommend to think about it and if you have any pictures of the style you want just save in the phone to show them so they can recommend something for you to save time. And they also take a lot of measurements even the way your body arches. Then you wait for about 4 weeks to come for fitting. It came out almost perfect just minor personal preference adjustments, then you wait another wait to pick up the final product I had a custom blazer made it's perfect fit and very comfortable not to mention the fabric is so nice and high end. All the staffs are so friendly and the owner even came to talk to me and check the jacket to make sure he signs off too and meet his standard. Everyone is very professional. read more

Absolute 5/5 experience from Alan David custom. They are truly professional, great at their jobs and give off positive energy. I recommend them for any man needing a custom clothing for work, weddings or anything. Jay provided great service and was clearly experienced. On top of that, him and the rest of the crew were constantly hyping up the piece. The thing with alan david is that you can customize anything and everything. The width of the lapel, where the button goes, etc. to make it come out perfectly how you want it. They work with high quality fabrics and I can't recommend them enough. Go get one and watch your confidence skyrocket! read more

Great service, great people, and a well made suit from the folks over here at Alan David. Highly recommend coming by for any of your formal attire needs as they will take care of you and ensure everything is top notch and meets your expectations read more

This is the first time I am getting a bespoke clothing and I am just blown away by the entire process. From the work that first goes into it to the finished product after a few adjustments. The service is what makes it an unbelievable experience. I started my process with Jay, who did the measurements to the T. Great guy to interact with throughout the process and gave great feedback/recommendations when you ask for it. He is super considerate when it comes to selection and really tries to avoid giving his opinion in terms of style unless asked upon, which I understand completely why. I was told it would take about four to five weeks for the suit jacket to be made. I sent a direct message via Yelp on the status of the suit, as I haven't heard from anyone five weeks later and my message via their website were not being answered. Alan, the owner himself, ended up messaging me back on a Saturday evening a few hours later after I sent the message via Yelp with the update. He made sure I knew everything and even gave me his personal email to schedule the appointment within the week. Talk about top tier service. I responded back on a Sunday and got a response back within a few hours, on a Sunday! Shows they're committed to the customer, regardless what time or day it is. Drunk on a Saturday 3AM? Maybe not so much. Alan needs to sleep too, ya know. For the two adjustment visits, Neil helped me out with this. Again, top tier service and super friendly. Even the man himself, Alan, came out with the assist for the first adjustments. The turnaround was quick, taking only two days. I was able to wear my suit jacket for my big 3-0 this past weekend. The suit itself. It may have not shown when I was trying it on that day and walking out with the finished product, but I for sure was impressed. Tailored specifically towards my body. It makes me look a lot skinnier than I am, my shoulder do not feel trapped, good arm mobility, and it just feels amazing putting it on. The quality of the materials is world class. It's just up to me now not to spill a drink on it. I surely will be back when it's time to get another sports jacket or even a full suit for a future wedding. read more

Top notch! My son wanted a custom tuxedo for his wedding day and he went to Alan David Custom! They did an excellent job of walking him through his choices, getting measured, then the final fitting to make sure everything is as expected.

I haven't been to Alan David in several years, so there's alot I can't speak to that other reviewers may have better insight. Today, as I sit down in my office wearing my Alan David suit, I felt inclined to write a long-term review, much like Car & Driver does. Because, while it's great to put on a brand new suit and feel like a million bucks, one of the most common questions is "will it last?" I went in for my first fitting at Alan David exactly 12 years ago (and picked up the suit 11 years and 44 weeks ago). While over the last 12 years I have certainly developed a head full of grey hair, a body full of aches, ligament tears in my shoulder etc, I can easily say my Alan David suit has held up a hell of alot better than me. And while I've treated the suit well, it's been on countless flights, been slept in, been caught in Manhattan downpours, and yes, even dry cleaned a handful of times. This thing is a tank. I mean it is in near-mint condition. I knew that from when I first put in on that it seemed very durably made, but I am shocked. Especially given how soft the wool is (i went with a Zegna fabric which is fantastic). Aside from being durable, it is such a nice suit - looks and feels amazing. One thing I've noticed from other custom or MTM or whatever suits is the trousers always feel a little lower quality - these are the best I've had, even compared to high quality pants of various brands (Canali, Zanella, etc). The other thing is they stand by their word in terms of lifetime warranty. I had to bring in the suit a couple of times for some minor maintenance items and no questions asked it was taken care of. The only slight criticism I have is while the jacket is incredibly comfortable and fits well, it's a little more boxy & less flattering than I had hoped for, but I also have a difficult body to fit. I had also got my brother a gift certificate for custom shirts when I got his MBA (figured with his student loans he wouldn't be able to afford a shirt once he got a job), and he's been wearing them for a decade and always text me before his meetings saying "going AD today!". While quality menswear is indeed a lot of money, you do get what you pay for. And sometimes, as with Alan David, you get a little more than what you pay for. Look forward to the next 12 years with this suit (and hopefully can come in for another soon). read more

The team at Alan David bring years of expertise to this fine gentleman's establishment. I had the privilege of getting a tailored sport coat, while find myself looking with envy at the many fine suits, jackets, and robes on display. Having enjoyed custom tailored suits and items while living in China, the experience feels familiar yet the fabrics and attention to detail are more profound. When I came today for my fitting, it actually fit quite perfectly. We decided to take it in slightly due to weight loss from the original measuring, but could have easily kept it as is. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a high end custom suits. read more

I Rarely leave reviews but need to express my overall experience with Alan David ! First off the consultation was amazing and I enjoyed the absolutely best fitting I've ever had in 53 years !. zero pressure sales crap and a amazing location in Manhattan. We traveled all the way from South Carolina for the Alan David experience and in the end I couldn't be happier ! We actually did have a problem with my suit getting shipped on time, but Alan himself got involved, did not make excuses and did everything humanly possible to correct his staff's mistake and then some which is rare these days. read more

Disclosure: I got a Yelp deal for a suit here. I had seen ads plenty of times, but once I saw the deal, I was on board to check it out. I was in the market for a navy suit. I am a bike racer on the side, so I have an odd shape (skinny) and nothing off the rack ever fits. I often get custom or even full bespoke clothes made, but it can get expensive very quickly. From the first meeting to each fitting to final pick-up, the staff here was amazing - very friendly, engaged and customer-focused. They took their time with me to find the right fabric for the suit as well as a nice option for the suit lining. They also took their time with the measurements, asking me questions about my workday (walking around, sitting, etc.), and how I liked my suits to fit, etc. It was a collaboration as I had some definite must-haves, and they took them into consideration, not lecturing me or being condescending at all. It was a pleasure working with them on this part. I came back a few weeks later for the first fitting. I was blown away. It is rare that the first fitting is more than 50-60% right. Usually, there is 1, maybe 2 more fittings. My first fitting was about 95% perfect. A few small adjustments needed and I came back in 2 weeks to pick up a perfect suit. The workmanship is excellent as is the service. I will definitely come back for more clothing. These guys are the best! read more

Impeccable. This is the first time in my life that I had someone close to me get a custom suit and now I can't imagine life before Alan David (and the suit was for my fiance, not me). Do you know how hard it is to find an excellent tailor? I do. I won't get into that here, but when we were planning our wedding attire, I was admittedly a bit fearful for Danny. Because I knew that our Manhattan Yelp Elites had an incredible event here back over the summer, I reached out to Alan via Yelp who responded to me within minutes to set up an appointment. I had initially contacted a few places but it seemed like it would take forever to get an appointment (and many of these appointments for grooms now seem to be parties in and of themselves. No thanks. We were in a time crunch with just 2 months until our wedding). Danny was whisked in for a fitting and consultation and he was very much impressed with the professionalism and expertise of the staff. He was confident that they got his vision (vintage in style and spirit, pinstripe). The suit was made in just about a month, Danny went in for a final fitting and everything was ready a couple weeks before our wedding. I'm attaching a photo to this review so that you can see for yourselves how gorgeous this suit is. I will end this review by saying 1. I was extremely envious of the high quality and craftsmanship of the suit and wished they did wedding gowns as well. One thing I particularly loved was the interior lining of the suit which had a guitar pattern that Danny picked out. Such a lovely touch! 2. Full disclosure that the generous discount extended to our Manhattan Elites was offered to us for this suit. That said, the price without a discount is astonishingly fair and I will be recommending Alan David to just about everyone I know that needs a custom suit for a special occasion. read more

A+ experience, A+ service, A+ hospitality, A+ professionalism. I came into Alan David looking for a new Navy Blue work suit. Since this was my first bespoke experience in the US, Alan was incredibly professional and during our initial consultation, he walked me through the whole bespoke process that is being done at Alan David Custom. There were a ton of questions that he asked such as how often I wear a suit, what kind of occasions would I wear it etc. just to get a sense on what I was looking for and to match a suit for my needs. A+ for that attention to detail. When I told Alan that I needed a Navy colored suit, he walked me through all sorts of options that I can get for that color. There were honestly way too many options to pick! Alan was very thoughtful and patient, and guided me towards all the different options that I can pick after narrowing down the different shades/patterns of navy blue. I ended up choosing the sharkskin blue, which was a lighter shade of blue in between a navy and a royal blue. Also choose the specific features of the suit, so it definitely felt customized to myself and my liking! I was then measured up, and was told the whole process would take ~4 weeks to get the initial garment tailored and manufactured. 4 weeks later came in for an initial fitting. Joris took care of the fitting process for me, and adjusted the garment based on my preferences such as making the legs a little slimmer and tapering the back of the jacket. The alteration process took about a week or so, and came back for another round of fitting. I was thoroughly impressed with how the final product looked. Definitely Alan David takes the bespoke process very seriously, and I can say I am a very happy client to be doing business with them! Also, you get free life time alterations for whatever suit you get. So if you gain a few pounds or loss some wait, just call their team, bring the suit over, and they'll have it fixed! Great customer service with this offering! Overall? Highly recommend Alan David and their team to get your next suit - be it for a wedding, work, or other formal function. The attention to detail, professionalism, and how friendly the team at Alan David is incredible. Thank you so much! read more

We are so impressed with Alan David, and will for sure be coming back to get my husband new suits. My husband's body shape is super challenging to fit; most suits that fit his broad shoulders look extremely baggy at his waist. He really needed a custom suit for our wedding in order to get the right fit. As we go to other formal events -- other weddings or christenings or what have you -- we are already planning to go back to Alan David to get a black suit, perhaps a tan suit, and maybe a grey! This blue suit was a fantastic decision, and we are so thankful to Alan David for working their magic!!! read more

Alan David Custom - My husband and I in our tuxes from Alan David Custom - Men's Clothing Near Me - New York, New York

From top to bottom, a simply great first custom suit experience. I believe I had 3-4 appointments regarding the suit choices, insider patterns, and fit and Alan had been present for all but one appointment. The attention to detail is evident. Alan helped me realize that no matter your body type or silhouette, proper suiting can and should be done. From the onset of the first appointment, Alan asked about my current suits, what I was looking for and how often I suit up. That set the stage for color, and style recommendations. Alan was patient and not out to just placate me. During the final fitting, I thought they were putting on with how good the suit came out, but the suit really and truly came out beautifully. It's quite a feeling to have a custom suit, I'm thankful for the opportunity and Alan's tremendous help. As well as even the storage tips from Neil. I recommend you give them your business for a custom suit, wedding jacket, etc. Good: -I found the company very communicative, whether it was voicemails or emails, I was always in the loop -I did not find the staff pushy, the combined years of experience is apparent. -I loved the clarifying questions they would ask to help me express what I was feeling, "How do you feel when you sit down?" -If you cannot tell, I LOVE MY SUIT -A short walk from Grand Central Terminal Bad: -None read more

Got a custom suit created here and woo what an experience. From the start I feel like I was treated like royalty. I was able to sit with Alan and he walked me through the different fabrics and the pros and cons of each. He then showed me some customization options, and while he definitely shared his opinions, he never made me feel like I had to go with what he was suggesting and really wanted me to make the decision for myself as this would be my suit. The actual fitting was done by someone named Jay. It was a great experience. They really get all your measurements, even between your shoulder blades, which I've never experienced before, but really added value to the suit. He also was so complimentary, I felt so good about myself afterwards! Eventually had to come in three times for one suit - one was the initial sitdown on what fabrics I wanted, and an initial measurement. Then the second time was for touch ups, and then finally, one last time to pick up the suit and make sure it fit perfectly. I could not be happier with the entire experience, from Elsie's super kind voice on the phone to Jay's expert tailoring. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a custom suit. Will be coming back here for all my needs in the future. read more

UNBELIEVABLE service!!!!!!!! I set up my appointment and spoke with Elsie who was beyond accommodating and helpful. When I went in I had some pictures of what I was looking for/thinking of... mind you this is my first custom clothing experience ever. My salesman David was beyond helpful and had input that I was unaware I needed. He sat patiently as I went thru their books of fabrics and colors/styles. When I told him the date I needed it for (July 11) to wear to a wedding he didn't flinch and said it would be a rush but they would get it done. My next monkey wrench came in that I would be out of town until July 9 and would be in for my final fitting on July 10. Today is July 10 and I went in exactly at 11 am when they opened and tried on my pants and blazer. They fit PERFECTLY, nothing was needed and I left with my outfit. I can not believe how good custom/made to order fits!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll DEFINITELY be back and will recommend them to EVERYONE!!! read more

Alan David Custom - Custom blazer and pants as salesman David looks on in backround - Men's Clothing Near Me - New York, New York

One of the best displays of customer service I have ever received. Owner truly believes in his company and supports his business. As with some fittings there were some mistakes and they needed to be fixed. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to fix them. I was not happy and I felt I was in deep trouble. Didn't expect the owner to immediately contact me (late night) to rectify the situation. He came to me and assured me everything was going to be taken care of before I left. He made sure my suit was fit and exactly how I wanted. He showed he absolutely cared about my experience with his company by his effort and result. Suit was fantastic and fitted perfectly. I know it was my wedding but I did receive many compliments throughout the wedding. Anyways thanks to the fast acting and extremely supportive owner I had the best wedding. Thanks again for your help and suit! Highly recommend. read more

I'm a college professor and a professional speaker. I've done 3 suits from Alan David so far. My suits came out as good as the suits done by world famous tailors like Edward Sexton, Cifonelli, Panico, etc. for a FAR less price. Check out my photos under photos. Alan David has the world class fabrics from English and Italian companies. Their fittings are so meticulous to get it perfect. Fittings with Neil and Jay were excellent. Most of all the owner Alan David is the perfect American embodiment of doing whatever it takes to satisfy the customer. Never seen service like his anywhere else. GO FOR IT! read more
