The men's sizing is very precise with fitted or more relaxed fit dress shirts and pants. We have mostly purchased men's clothing but they also have a small women's section as well. Two of my favourite items in this store are the wide selection of tie-able bow ties (as opposed to pre-tied bow ties) and the small selection of satirical books found at the register. The books are quite expensive and I have yet to see them on sale, but they are such fun: How to be a lady, how to behave at a formal diner party - amazing! Tanger outlets have all the essentials for every event, from the casual BBQ to a night on the town, to a fancy dress ball - enjoy!

So this Marshalls in Barrhaven opened up like 2 years ago in 2018, but I didn't even know it…read moreexisted until recently. When I first moved to Ottawa I lived in Nepean and went to Barrhaven all the time, but back then it was mostly fields, lol. So much development has happened since, but nowadays I am rarely ever in Barrhaven anymore. However, my husband and I were meeting some friends to check out a restaurant with a nice patio out in Barrhaven so we went a bit early to do some shopping...and what are my favourite stores?...Marshalls and Winners, of course (yes, we did them both, lol). So this Marshalls is in a newer plaza complex along with a Dollarama, the biggest Natural Food Pantry I've ever seen, an LCBO, Value Village, Costco and a few other businesses. I'm not crazy about the sprawling suburban plazas, where you have to drive to get from one section to another or you take your life in your own hands as you navigate the parking lots as a pedestrian, but I will endure them to shop at a Marshalls ;) So this Marshalls didn't have the best selection of merchandise. Yes, we are in the midst of the Covid Pandemic and I understand that they have supply chain issues, but compared to other Marshalls during the same time, I find this one rather lacking. I will need to go back when the Pandemic is over to see how it compares to other Marshalls locations during normal times (as my first visit was during the Pandemic). I liked that their Clearance Section was clearly marked, as this is always the first section that I shop ;) It's a big Marshalls so things are spread out and well organized, not like the tiny Urban Concept stores where everything is crammed together and organization is haphazard and weird. Like why is underwear right next to chips? Yes, I'm a city princess, but I hate "urban concept" stores! Anyway, if I'm in Barrhaven, I guarantee you I will go to this Marshalls, but I won't make a special trip to Barrhaven just to go to this Marshalls. Does that make sense? Lol.

This past weekend my son (visiting from Toronto) had forgotten to pack dress clothing appropriate…read morefor a special family luncheon. Pressed for time we went to a nearby TIP TOP TAILORS and were there immediately prior to official opening. The manager Mr. Kishore saw us and invited us inside. He took the time and trouble to attend to my son and assist him with his undivided attention. He was instrumental in solving our problem quickly with no drama. we were in and out in plenty of time to get to our luncheon with the rest of our extended family. Impeccable service. Mr. Kishore is a consummate professional and Tip Top is lucky to have him.

I decided to pop in on a whim and see what they had. I noticed a sign on the door that said they had a "work dog" inside, which immediately made me joyous. I was even happier that she (I think her name was Jazz!), was the sweetest, most calm dog ever and hung out with me while I shopped. The staff member (who I believe was the owner), was great at keeping her close by, but I made it clear that I welcomed her furry little presence! I was asked right away if I needed help and was led to their fantastic selection of cuff links. Thy source them out of the UK and I believe Texas. Their selection is plentiful - classy and quirky and tailored to all personality types. They have sports one and occupations and I ended up selecting an awesome pair of silver Lego pieces. I mentioned my boyfriend was an MMA trainer and he offered to order in some boxing glove cuff links for us - wonderful customer service! I also picked up a gorgeous Nautica tie (at half off!) and some super cool dinosaur socks for the birthday boy. They have an amazing selection of men's grooming products including beard grooming supplies, European razors and a whole wall of other goodies. They also carry a ton of fun and colourful socks and an insane amount of men's underwear (the second staff member is your go to guy for men's underwear. He admits to owning hundreds of pairs!). They also sell shirts and other accessories. If you're on the hunt for a guy who loves quality and individual gifts, stop by. The products were great but the staff were even better. Can't wait for an excuse to return!

Size and colour same, but they gave me a different design. When I emailed them, they said they were out of stock for the shoes I was hoping for. They did offer a refund and free shipping for the next purchase, %15 off, or to trade in with another pair. I chose the refund, because at that point I didn't trust them to get my order in a timely and accurate manner. The reviews are a little too harsh in my opinion, or they truly got service deserving of 1 star. My service was mid, could've been better, but wasn't worse. At that point, I didn't even trust them that they would return a refund. Meh service. I might give them another chance.

I like LL Bean. Frankly, I don't shop there as often as I used to…read more When I was an undergraduate student, I found a pair of suede purple Mary Jane shoes from LL Bean. These shoes were made by Rieker Shoes. I loved them so much. Sadly, LL Bean doesn't offer this company's shoes anymore. They brought me to love LL Bean. I have been to the flagship store in Freeport, ME. Within the last four years or so, LL Bean has been opening stores up in Canada. I had only visited the store in Barrie. I have yet to visit the one in Oakville. This LL Bean store is located at the Ottawa Trainyards. I was there to shop and eat. I decided to check this store out while I was there. I dropped by after Canada Day. It still had all things Canadiana displayed in the store when you first walk in. There was a sale going on where everything was 15% off. I will say that I found the prices to be expensive. There was a cool t-shirt that I liked. It was going for $75. Ouch! Even after the discount, it's still expensive. I did like the cargo pants and lightweight puffy jackets. The problem was that it was hot and humid in Ottawa. Just looking at these items made me sweat... haha! I was more interested in summer clothing. Caps were the exception. They were going for 20% off. I love caps these days, but there wasn't one screaming for me to own it. You can get a book on the history of this company. I liked the pocket knives and Yeti drinkware. I oddly went with a couple of smaller items. I got a keychain with LL Bean's signature boot on it. I also got a sticker, which is now on my laptop. I had the nicest woman at the checkout. I was pleased to get my 15% off. I put both items in my purse because they were so small. It was fun browsing in this store. I like the casual clothes and footwear that it offers, but don't like the high prices. (277)

Then in 2020 they opened 3 more stores in Canada and this one in the Ottawa Trainyards was one of them. L.L. Bean is like the epitome of preppy, in my opinion. Kind of like Eddie Bauer. I don't like any of their clothes for myself personally, too symmetric, too modest and not fashion forward enough, lol. However, it's a look I love on men, haha. Prices are high, but quality is good. I'm glad to see international companies expanding to Canada, but admittedly, I won't be a regular customer. This store in particular is a decent size. Everything is very neatly organized. It's similar to other locations in the USA. Lots of free parking in the plaza parking lot.

Wow - I read about Jimmy the Suit Guy on Reddit, and he's widely known as the best suit salesperson…read morein Ottawa. I had my first visit over the weekend! Some points of note: 1. You must call to make an appointment first - they don't take walk-ins. 2. There is limited selection. What they have is what they have. I think the place is overflow from suit manufacturers, so they get what hasn't sold in other places. 3. What they have is FANTASTIC value. I got 3 namebrand suits, 2 shirts, and 4 ties for $1000. And they all look fantastic. 4. They don't do alterations, but can recommend excellent tailors. 5. They know what a good suit should look like. Jimmy and his salespeople are absolutely phenomenal at showing you suits that would look good on your body. They also carry tuxedos, shirts, belts and a limited selection of shoes. There's not a huge selection of kids' suits - it's really a mens' shop. I would strongly you visit Jimmy if you're looking for new suits.

This is another business that Yelp keeps prompting me to write a review on, probably because there…read moreare no reviews, I posted some pictures, and I'm always checking in, lol. So The Shoe Company is a big shoe store, a little bit like DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse, except maybe with less designer brands. They have a colour coded system where different coloured stickers mean you get different additional percentages off. I usually look for orange stickers which is 50% off and red which is 70% off. They have what I would consider regular mainstream shoe styles. They don't carry anything too "out there" or avant garde. I love shoes, or more accurately, I love boots and sandals, but not those weird boot-sandal hybrids like knee high boots with open toes, what is up with that? Just my personal style opinion, no offense to boot-sandal hybrid lovers, you are probably just too cool for me. Where was I going with this? Oh yes, I love footwear, so I browse around at The Shoe Company a lot, lol. This particular location is in a strip mall, so there's lots of free parking. It's in the same strip mall as Factory Direct, Ardene, Winners, Laura, Value Village and Dollarama. Also Sushi 168 and World Burger, in the event that shopping for shoes makes you hungry.
