Tl;dr: If you have a thing for clothes and want to experience the "best of the best" (in every regard), Jerry and Ivan at JB Clothiers are the guys to see. Period. From the first call to the final fitting - and their post-delivery followup - every aspect of my experience with them was aces. In too much detail: Absolutely fantastic in every regard - JBC isn't merely the finest tailoring Los Angeles has to offer - it's literally a "Destination Clothier." This is going to be a long review - but then again I had a really wonderful experience, and in so many ways, that I can't sum it up quickly. Personal background - I have 25 years' experience selling exotic cars to very high net worth clientele in Los Angeles, and I am very aware of a what a luxury experience looks and feels like. So I sort of walked in the door "loaded for bear." My other experiences had the veneer of luxury, but not the substance of luxury nor the quality of product. A glass of wine doesn't overcome the fact that the end result is a disappointment. Anyway - I could no longer find clothes "on the rack" that were made of fabrics I wanted (sport coats and suits in particular). I had tried two "made to measure" clothing stores (Suit Supply and Indochino) and been disappointed with the results, so I searched for a literal in-Los Angeles custom tailoring service (where I could consult *directly* with the tailor - not just an on-site rep for a tailor half a world away). After much deliberation, I made an appointment with JB. I must admit I was somewhat skeptical by this point, when I arrived for my first consult, even after all my investigation. The feel of JB Clothiers is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find when I walked in for my first consult. After meeting Jerry (the founder/proprietor) and his partner Ivan, I had great confidence that my research had paid off. The conversation about what I was looking for and how they could achieve it was quite in-depth (and I actually learned a few things about my taste). Jerry and Ivan suggested subtle ways of "expanding my taste envelope" while still well within my taste bandwidth. There are myriad choices to make - and with each one I was getting more excited to see the end result. The measuring process was thorough and precise, having me adopt different postures and re-measuring many times. I was there for the better part of an hour. About a month later, Jerry called to set up the first fitting appointment. I about died when I saw my coat for the first time. It's gorgeous and not so much a coat, as a garment, I think. The details are exquisite - and they are everywhere, beyond the special embroidery you'll be offered. It is quite literally a work of art. We tried it on, and made various adjustments, and I left not sure I'd be able to wait until it came back. Long story about how I Dunning-Kreuger'd the first alterations, which were literally put back on the 2d fitting. Sorry I wasted your time, guys. But by this time, I was so hooked on both the product and the experience, that I added a matching pair of slacks to the coat, turning it into a 2-Piece Suit. Going back the third time, I picked up the pants - they are not only gorgeous with the same attention to detail as the coat, but they fit me unlike any pants I have ever owned IN MY LIFE. They are utterly incredible. Fantastic! At the last fitting all of this was immediately and obviously worth every penny and every second of time. And admittedly, I'd added considerably to the time by the alterations I thought I wanted in the first fitting. I have tried this suit on with nearly every shirt/tie combo I can put together - it it so wonderful! This experience was very much a splurge for me - and I plan to do it again as soon as I can. Yes - I spent about 50% more than I would have for a Canali suit off the rack. But I got 5x the suit as a result. I'll never again waste money on clothing - what JB made for me is a lifetime investment, and no clothes I've ever had fit that description. Really not sure how to better convey my enthusiasm than to say I can't wait for the next time I decide to tread myself and add to my wardrobe. At the end of the day, the expenditure at JB will actually saved me in the long run - no more wasted money on clothes that are sorta "close enough" but never right. And no more wasted time trying to find them, either. Did I mention I love this suit? I love this suit! And I had a total blast along the way! Thanks guys! read more

This place is nice but maybe a little overrated. Jerry's not a bad guy and probably not a bad salesman. I thought I was coming in for a consultation, and I liked the fabrics and patterns we came up with, but he was disappointed that I was not ready to throw down $4,000 for the custom suit that day. (He convinced me that anything cheaper in his shop wasn't worth my time.) I can see why he likes to close the deal the day of. The more I thought about it, the less comfortable I felt throwing down than much for this suit... I had a few other reasons, too. Anyway, I sent a message to the store the next day, politely explaining why that I appreciated Jerry's time, but the shop wasn't for me. Jerry ended up calling me, and I wish I hadn't answered. He started trying to get me to get his cheaper stuff that had already talked me out of. He was pushy, dismissive of my reasons and all around unpleasant. I think they have some off the-rack suits available, too, and I believe they offer tailoring, but I am no longer interested. He'll probably respond to this and be dismissive again, but those are my two cents. He has a nice assistant. I won't pretend it's bad quality. Still three stars. read more

Loved this place, great staff, great selections, and were able to find me clothes for an important dinner with ease.willbe back

Looked great. Happy with the results. Was getting married and decided I wanted to do it looking my best, but didn't know where to start. JB walked me through the process and I pretty much went with all of his recommendations. It came out great. If I could change one thing I wish I had gone a little more slim fit on the pants. I also wish I would have asked for some sort of fabric waste tightening straps because over the night I wasn't eating and it became a little difficult to keep the pants up since Tuxedo pants don't come with with a belt. Otherwise happy with my experience and the result. read more

After seeing how beautifully Jerry crafted my friend's wedding suit, I knew immediately that I wanted him to design and make both my suit and shirt for my own wedding. From the very beginning, Jerry took the time to guide me through the entire process of building my first custom suit. We carefully reviewed every detail, from the collar to the cuffs, and I quickly realized just how meticulous the art of suit-making truly is or perhaps that level of precision is simply Jerry's signature. At the first fitting, Jerry proudly presented the finished suit and shirt, walking me through every thoughtful detail. He explained the stitching, pointed out how the trousers were subtly tailored at the hem to drape perfectly over the shoes, highlighted the custom embroidery, and even showed the sweat guards sewn into the suit--along with countless other details I would have never noticed on my own. His enthusiasm and pride in his craft were unmistakable, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about creating something exceptional for his clients. I walked away with an incredible suit and tie, and an even greater appreciation for the craftsmanship and passion that Jerry brings to his work. read more

The holy grail of bespoke menswear. Gorgeous little shop on spring and 9th. One minute with Jerry and you know you're working with a master. This man knows his business and runs his shop with integrity. His confidence in his craft will give you confidence! Beautiful handcrafted suits and tuxedos. He can do it all. read more

In an age where history, craftsmanship, and attention to detail have been replaced by labels and packaging--JB Clothiers occupies a lane unto itself. Jerry is professional, courteous, timely, and an excellent communicator. He understands his business and provides a top notch product. Nothing about my experience leaves me feeling underwhelmed, short changed, or confused. I recommend his services highly. read more

I wanted a custom suit, but that's easier said than done! Everyone says they can make a custom suit and I wasn't about to be disappointed by trying to cut corners. A great suit isn't cheap and a cheap suit won't be great. That being said, if you want the best in LA to navigate you through an amazing journey in designing and fitting you in a suit that feels out of this world then Jerry is the only choice! The experience from start to finish was nothing less than stellar. I honestly feel I not only acquired an incredible suit, but a long lasting friendship. I am already excited about expanding my wardrobe and seeing what Jerry has up is sleeve next for my next fit! Thank you, Jerry for everything! read more

JB Clothiers is as legit as it gets. I came in for a tailored charcoal suit, and Jerry and Ivan delivered in just one week, well ahead of my wedding deadline. From the initial fitting to the finished result, everything was flawless. This was the first suit I've ever purchased and I couldn't be happier with it. The shop itself is extremely professional, spotless, and even offers complimentary beverages, which was a great touch. I also loved how easy it was to find/research them on social media. I'll definitely be back for a bespoke suit when the time is right. Huge thanks to Jerry and Ivan! read more

I would give 6 stars if I could. Fantastic experience from start to finish. Jerry is truly a master of his craft. I am so happy I chose JB Clothiers. I wanted a bespoke suit for my wedding. I wanted a black suit that was "tuxedo-esque" -if that's a word- but that could also be worn as a less formal suit for daytime wear. Jerry was great. He provided top notch customer service to match the wide selection of premium fabrics and materials. I am thrilled with the results. I am definitely not an "off the rack" fit, and my suit fits perfectly. Jerry has been in the business for decades, and knows exactly how to tailor a suit to get just the right fit. He has also embraced new technologies. The Cloudzet laser measuring device is next level. His selection of whiskeys isn't bad either. I look forward to my next experience here. read more

This is undoubtedly one of my most memorable customer service experiences to date. The professionalism, punctuality, and overall character of Jerry are unparalleled. I was referred by a good friend of mine and contacted Jerry immediately upon noticing his positive attitude. That phone call alone convinced me to entrust my business to him. The suit was immaculate, receiving numerous compliments, and I was thoroughly satisfied. Thank you, Jerry. I highly recommend his services; you will not regret it. read more

Great experience with Jerry. First time getting a bespoke piece and was debating between a few. Jerry won me over and was great to work with. read more

Jerry was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the entire process.

The experience was fun, relaxed, and the final result exceeded my expectations. I'm extremely happy with how it turned out and would highly recommend him! read more

I'm notorious for buying vintage jackets without paying any attention to how well they fit me. In the past, I would let my local tailor hack away at it and if it worked, great. I didn't spend a ton of money on it anyway. Then I found a very special jacket. So I had to take it to JB, which my friend said is the best in the city. My friend was right. JB made a miracle happen. Not only did they convert this '40s Era velvet one-button jacket from something that fit a very stout man to something that fit 42 Regular me, they also did it in less than two weeks. Sure, he costs more than the dry-cleaner tailor, but I still found JB affordable. I walked out of there feeling like a king. He's my tailor for life. read more

Impressed at the attention of detail, Jerry was extremely professional , and made a very boring process fun! Love the suits I got , and have gotten multiple compliments already! Thanks Jerry, will be back soon! read more

Found JB through online recommendation when searching for a bespoke suit-maker. Instead, we found a bespoke suit-master. This was for my wedding -- and Jerry came up with a remarkable piece. As expected, it perfectly fit from wonderful materials; the mastery was in how comfortable it was to wear, how it accented the body with an excellent cut, and how it worked in my personal flourishes and style. The entire process was enjoyable; 3-4 visits, clear guidance through the process. I'm not a suit man, but I am when JB makes it. Be forewarned, it is costly. read more

Jerry was great. I had a sudden need for a good suit having lost all mine in the LA fires and suddenly receiving a prestigious award at an event in NYC. I had just over 3 weeks notice! Then I found JB Clothiers online hoping to get something off the rack since a well made fitting suit would normally take weeks. He promised me he could deliver a bespoke suit on my schedule - and he did. Lovely suit, many compliments. Jerry and Ivan were always welcoming and very efficient. So happy I found them. read more

Wow! I am going to lavish praise upon Jerry and I haven't even seen the garment yet! His shop is posh and beautiful. When I saw Jerry he was a fashionable angel sent from heaven. He took my last minute weird request to alter a Dirndl and he's going to make it happen! To be continued... read more

This is my first yelp review & it's for good reason. Jerry & Co. @ JB Clothiers provided a flawless, white glove experience, from initial consultation, through final fitting. I could not be happier with my experience, and most importantly, the bespoke suit they made for me is honestly of a quality I've never had before. No detail is spared, and the process of making this suit was top quality. Thanks JB Clothiers! Jason read more

I have no words to describe what Jerry did for my family and I. I had recently lost my father and the process of laying my father to rest was a very difficult one for me. My father was sick and he lost a lot of weight and unfortunately his best suit didn't fit him anymore. I didn't wanna put my father to rest in peace in his old suit since it no longer fit him and I wanted my mothers last image of my father looking his best. I reached out to Jerry and explained the situation to him and told him I had taken my fathers measurements and if it was possible to fit him for a suit with just his measurements? Jerry walked me through the whole thing and explained what was the best way to approach it. He told me he could do it and let me tell you he did such an amazing with my fathers suit that i actually cried when i saw my dad in it, he looked so good. Jerry even had it ready super quick for me that it helped us prepare for my fathers funeral much easier. Jerry you have a customer for life. I won't go anywhere else to ever get a suit again. From the bottom of my heart Jerry thank you for everything you did. You are truly a gentlemen and an artist in the tradition of tailors. read more

Thank you Jerry for the attention to detail with my body type and exceptional customer service. I will recommend and be a return customer. PS: I bought 2 suits at once just based on Jerry's portfolio and service. read more

We went to JB Clothiers for my husband's wedding attire and had a fantastic experience. Jerry was great and instantly made us feel like family. My husband chose to do a bespoke suite and a tuxedo for our two ceremonies. The process of choosing the fabrics was fun. We were extremely pleased with both final products. The fit was absolutely perfect, and there were a ton of personal touches (initials on the cuffs, name inside the jacket.. etc) to really make it special. He received a ton a compliments from the guests. We will definitely return in the future. I highly recommend JB for anyone looking for a high quality bespoke suit or tuxedo. read more

They took care of me in a pinch. I didn't have time to have a custom suit made for my sister's wedding but they put me in a nice ensemble and made the proper alterations so that it felt like a custom suit. I'm a real estate agent here in LA and I know this outfit will go to good use. I'm very happy with my experience and will be back in the future. read more

Good place. Nice people. Spent $700 but suit seems like a good value. I'll probably go back again.

Amazing quality and very professional. Jerry takes his time to make sure the customer meets all expectations. Best suits in LA without a doubt. read more

I came to Jerry with my wedding in a month and no tux options. After calling him on a Friday afternoon, he met me the next day and handled everything. I could not have been more pleased with his speed, quality, or character. You can not go wrong coming here read more

Jerry was incredibly patient, explaining and showing different materials, cuts and shape. He was very honest even about the "upgrades" that I thought about and explained to me that some were not worth it. I listened to him and me and my wife were so happy with the outcome. Excellent craftsmanship and best of all, I can lose and gain a couple of pounds, because they have a lifetime tailoring service (hopefully I won't need to go back though ^^)! There's a big difference between a custom suit and an off the rack suit (even after tailoring). I looked much taller and skinnier in the suit from JB! It's definitely not the cheapest suit, but you get what you pay for and you can feel it! Oh, and definitely try some of his whiskey collections while you're there. We tried the Dalmore cigar malt and it was amazing! I will certainly go back for a different color suit in the near future, now that they have all my measurements on file. read more

Thank you so much for making me look like a superstar, Jerry!!! read more

Best of the best. Pleasure working with Jerry. Had the best experience and I'll be returning for more!

I previously purchased a suit from Jerry for my wedding that fit like a glove. Fast forward a few years (and a couple pounds), I had to come back to get the suit re-fitted. Jerry's expertise can not be understated, all adjustments were done with percision and accuracy. On day of pick the suit fit perfect again and when I was getting ready to pay he reminded me I get free alterations and adjustments for the life of the suit.....Now how can you beat that... read more

Great custom suits and great service. Jerry really takes care of his customers. 5 stars, highly recommend
