I was surprised at how quick the process was. Travis picked out the right size without even measuring me and I was in and out of there in 15 minutes. I was hoping for a bigger selection of shirts and ties as I didn't see many but they had plenty of suits and you can't beat the value for what you are getting. I will be going back for all of my suit needs in the future. read more

10/10 experience! The customer service was amazing, and the whole experience was enjoyable. The quality of the suits here are outstanding and affordable. read more

Travis, Thank you so much for all the expert advice today. Truly great experience and what you expect from a quality company like MAC. highly recommend and will do all my shopping here! read more

The best suit shop you will ever visit. I recommend this place to EVERYONE! Travis is the absolute best!

THIS IS YOUR PLACE!!! I'm a bigger guy and have a hard time finding suits and sport coats that fit. Travis took the time to find the right size and fit for my oddly shaped body. He made me feel right at home from the moment I got there. Beautiful selection of suits and sport coats. The quality is SUPERB!!! Go to the best in the Valley and walk out with a suit that will make you the best dressed man at work, your wedding or special event! read more

Absolutely one of the best service oriented suit fitters I have ever been to. The store front is small and unassuming. Inside is a simple room filled with racked suits. Travis and Barry are the proprietors and they greet all who enter. Within minutes my sons were correctly fitted and had recommendations for seamstresses to finish the hem on the cuffs of the pants. We will be back for ALL of our formal wear needs. This is not a good fit if you want off the rack speed runs. It is an experience where you get the old school white glove approach for less than I would have paid at a big department store. read more

See all

My fiancé needed a suit for our wedding and required some guidance. Travis created a relaxed atmosphere and stress free experience. The process was seamless and simple - we will be back for additional suiting needs! read more

I arrived to Phoenix for a wedding and then realized I had left my suit in a hotel five hours away. I showed up to Men's Apparel Club in a panic and Travis was incredibly understanding and helpful. He got me through the crisis in time for the event, and I love the suit I ended up with. Could not recommend this place more highly! read more

Update review of my husband in his suit on our wedding day that we got from mens apparel club! He got so many compliments on it! & I loved it! read more

Men's Apparel Club - Men's Clothing Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I'll start by saying this was by far the BEST shopping experience we've had! My fiance Jon and I went in to Men's Apparel Club in search for a suit for our wedding. We both had never bought a suit before so were blind going in. Barry made the process absolutely amazing. We left with the perfect suit, more knowledge, and the biggest smiles on our face. Do not hesitate to visit Barry and Travis! read more

Travis was great, walked me through it. Great selection, quick and easy. Good pricing, easy decision.

Great shop. The owner is knowledgeable, personable, and prices are reasonable. Way better experience than going to most shops!

The knowledge and attention I received while purchasing a couple suits, was paramount. Great people and prices! Thank you read more

I loved my experience at Men's Apparel Club. My brother and I got suits and we love them! Travis was super helpful, the service there is unmatched! read more

Barry and Travis are the best in the business! Walked in looking for a new suit and they set me up perfectly. I really appreciate the genuine conversations we had. I'll be coming back here anytime I need a suit. Appreciate the both of you again! read more

Today I stumbled across this shop. Firstly I have to say this was truly an awesome experience. I came looking for a suit & feel like I left with a great suit and 2 new friends. Barry & Travis are great guys. They even schooled me on different fabrics & suit types for particular situations. To make short of this review I will say I recommend this shop before any in Phoenix. Wonderful selections & if you don't see it in store they will order it. 1st class service go see for yourself! read more

Recently went in looking for a sportcoat and came out with two! For a small boutique they had more in stock (size and style) than some big box stores with their inventories combined. Travis made it feel like I'd scheduled a private appointment at a boutique. Most of my past experiences with seeking out a suit or a coat resulted in measuring and endless try ons, if I got help at all - the experience in this shop led to sizing me up correctly upon seeing me walk in the door and I was amazed at how quickly and efficiently we got to what I needed. Will absolutely be my first stop in the future! read more

Barry is the man. He will hook you up and leaving you wanting to come back. He exclusively sells suits, well shirts and ties as well I guess. Believe it when everyone says he's the best price in town. He is likely the best price in the country, and that's no lie. All that value with a friendly conversation to boot. If you're looking for men's suits this is where you need to stop. Save yourself the trouble and skip trying to shop around at department stores, specialty stores, men's warehouse, or even direct from a manufacturor's storefront. Barry has what you need at a price you just can't say no to. Basically, you can't afford to shop anywhere else, 3 for the price of one just can't be beat. read more

Months ago I started researching suits. I don't happen to need a suit, but I also know I should have a suit, at least one, for special occasions. During my research into styles, terminology, history, choices, etc., I started to look at what my options were in the Valley. I use Yelp a lot. I like Yelp, it's helpful. Is it perfect? No, like any tool, as the user, you are ultimately responsible for how you use it - well or poorly. Typically, if you take the time to really read the reviews you can get a pretty good feel for what you can expect. So while looking over reviews, Men's Apparel Club stood out to me, and what those reviews said of Barry in particular, grabbed my interest. I really enjoy doing business with sole proprietorships where the owner is passionate about what they do. It is typically a much more satisfying experience as the customer, both in services and good received, and also in the generally good feeling of giving your business, and support to such an individual. Especially in today's Corporate dominated economy. Sometimes all these things combine and you actually get nervous that your expectations might be set too high. This was one of those times. I was so excited to finally go to MAC and meet Barry, that I was terrified it was going to be a huge let down. However, my fears were for naught. My Girlfriend and I walked in on Friday at 3:30 pm, as Barry was finishing up with another customer. He greeted us, and finished up with the other gentleman. The atmosphere of the shop was one of warmth and congeniality, and only got better as Barry was able to focus his attention and wonderful personality on us. (So, I am not exactly sure what alternative universe the poster on 8/12/2018 entered, or how they got there, but that one-off review, which had me a little bit worried, was definitely WAY off from our experience!!!) Here is the bottom line . . . Barry is wonderful. He knows his business, and provides great customer service. He has earned my customer loyalty for as long as he wants to keep working. Within 1 hour, Barry had us set up with 2 great suits, 3 ties (1 of which he gifted us) and a perfectly fitting white dress shirt. The man knows suits (and the people who wear them), he listens to you, and he responds appropriately, in both guiding and satisfying your purchases of suits you will enjoy wearing. Badda Bing, Badda Boom!!! It was a richly satisfying experience. I only wish we had more time to spend with Barry, LOL! We would highly recommend MAC to anyone who we thought worthy of the experience - yeah, it's like that. Barry understands, and lives up too, the concept of making a customer relationship for Life, rather than a one time sale. Barry, Thank You! Sincerely. Gillian and I greatly enjoyed our shopping experience with you, and we will be back to see you, and get more great suits. Until then, we will be sending like minded friends to you!!! read more

Don't waste your money at Men's Wearhouse or any other chain stores. Barry at Men's Apparel Club has been in the business for 65 years, offers a premium product/service for a more affordable cost. Barry is the best. I am so happy I don't have to deal with broken down or poorly designed suits anymore. Goodbye Men's Wearhouse!!! read more

I was in the need for a couple of suits for work, always had anxiety that I was "that guy" who didn't own a suit, but truthfully I've never absolutely been in the situation where I needed one. Now that I am going to be traveling for work and attending executive briefings, it was time to pull the trigger. Right of the bat I knew I didn't want to go to a retail chain such as Men's Warehouse or Burlington Coat Factory, nor did I want to go the upscale department store route, this led me to Google and Yelp and the compelling reasons buying my suits at Men's Apparel Club was an open and shut case. The wife and I walked in, were immediately greeted warmly by Barry, the proprietor of Men's Apparel Club. I explained to Barry that I was 44, didn't own a suit and was in the need for two suits for work. Barry asked a few questions regarding preferences in addition to a little ribbing regarding him putting me into a $1000+ suit. All joking aside, I told Barry the colors I was interested in, and we were off. First jacket I tried was pretty much dead on, along with the second, and then same for the slacks. Truth be told the jacket and slacks need minimal tailoring for length and that's pretty much it. Barry is a consummate suit salesman and store owner who takes the utmost pride in his business and how his customers look and how they are treated. I felt like the most important person in Barry's existence while I was shopping in his store, he provided suggestions on everything from shirts to belts and a huge assortment of ties. Barry professionally mocked up probably about 40 or so ties with the different suit/shirt color combinations I had chosen so I could gauge how I liked each and every combination of the ensemble. I was almost disappointed when all was said and done and it was time to head out with my purchase to have it tailored down the street. Barry's type of customer service and pride in his company and product is rarely seen anymore these days and I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase. Ultimately I purchased two suits, two shirts, a pair of shoes and nine ties for less than I expected to spend on a single suit, and yes, they look and feel damn fine. Thanks for everything Barry. I will certainly return in the very near future. read more

If I could give Barry & Travis unlimited stars, I would. I created a Yelp account solely to give them a review after my experience with them today. I went in at 2:30p on a Friday to (hopefully) find a suit for my father-in-laws wedding next weekend. I despise buying clothes and especially finer clothes due to some weight gain/weight loss and just figuring everything out. Travis was finishing up helping a gentlemen who needed a suit for 5p TODAY - and as they were finishing up Barry gave me a smile, shook my hand and said I'll be with you in just a moment and asked for my name while he was on hold on the phone. I told him my name and he said nice to meet you, then proceeded to set the gentlemen who just got his suit up with an immediate appointment at a local tailor. Barry then came over and quickly realized I was in over my head, in the kindest of ways. He asked me some questions and mentioned immediately he thought he had something for me - which calmed my nerves from the jump. He was honest about the fit, what to look for and what to expect without me even having to ask. We shared some stories about our weight loss journeys, which made me feel even more comfortable because he knew what was going through my mind. The exact suit he initially saw and picked out fit like a glove and was the exact color I came in looking for (a beautiful navy blue). The deal he gave me on price was just incredible. He wasn't looking to rip anyone off, he just wanted me to be comfortable and like how I looked. I will NEVER look for another suit store for the rest of my life in the Phoenix area. Barry, I'll be pick to pick up my next suit as we discussed when I hit the next weight goal. I cannot thank you enough for making this experience so smooth and enjoyable. Your reputation and the businesses reputation sure speaks for itself! read more

Barry is absolutely the man. We took our college-age son here to get advice and a fitting; Barry was gracious and very old-world. He took all the time we needed to have our son try on various suits until he found the perfect one for his needs. Barry advised on what suits to look for next, how they should fit, and how a man should carry himself in the professional world. There is no comparison. I'm 57 years old. I've bought suits all over the world. I will never buy a suit from anyone other than Barry. read more

Terrible customer service! The older guy who helped me spent most of his time doing a crossword puzzle on a sunday rather than help me find a suit for next weekend's event. He kept saying "if you find this suit cheaper anywhere else I'll buy it from you" (not sure what his strategy was there) Finally left after he said "I think were a little too conservative for ya". Absolutely ridiculous!!! If you're looking for dull LA swap meet suits then this place is definitely for you. read more

I wish I could rate this store 6 or 7 stars. Do not bother going anywhere else in town. Barry was an absolute pleasure to work with and put my needs first, not like some other stores in town with pushy salesman and excessive profit margins. A true one of a kind buying experience and will be doing business again in the future! read more

Finally!!!.... a place where you can get old-school customer service. Not that big box, chain store, one-size fits all service that we have come to accept in today's society. I have spent the past three months looking for a suit. I tried luxury brands, chain stores, online stores, and even "warehouse" outlets. None cared how "I" looked in "MY" suit. They only cared about their cash registers, their commissions, and their bottom lines. Not Barry. This guy is absolutely 100% legit. A clothier who knows his garments and what makes a man look like a gentleman. You can tell that Barry absolutely loves what he does. Not for the commission​... not for the sale...not for his bottom line, but because this is what he was put on this planet to do. read more

I went in to buy my first suit and I will likely never get another suit from anywhere else. They were so helpful, kind, informative, and were never pushy for me to buy. They have so much confidence in their product that they encouraged me to still look at other places, confident that I would be back. And they were 100% right. After looking at 4 other stores, I returned to Men's Apparel Club and bought from them. They didn't have the exact suit that I wanted, so they ordered it in and it was exactly what I wanted! I will recommend Men's Apparel Club to anyone and everyone! read more

As a bigger guy, there's almost nothing I dread more than shopping for clothes. However, when my own wedding came calling, I knew I could no longer put off buying my first suit. I was anxious and uncomfortable walking into Men's Apparel Club, anticipating judgmental looks, and either no availability in my size or an exorbitant price for something that fit. All of my fears were immediately assuaged when Travis greeted me with a warm smile and a friendly handshake and assured that he would take care of me. Over the course of two quick and easy visits to the store, Travis and Barry found me a suit that looks and feels better than any other formal clothes I've ever worn. On the third visit, I walked out with a brand new suit, and Travis was even kind enough to accompany me to the tailor for my fitting to make sure everything turned out just as he envisioned. I needed someone to guide me through this process, and I couldn't have asked for more personable, attentive, or efficient service than what I received from Men's Apparel Club. I would highly recommend them for anyone in need of a suit for any occasion, but especially for bigger men like me. read more

This is an odd and confounding review to write. This place has got solid five star reviews, so it looks like I'm going to be the odd man out here in the experience I had when I visited. My girl and I are getting married soon, so the other day we decided to start yelping places to look for a suit. We found Men's Apparel Club shining like a beacon amongst the mostly scathing Men's Wearhouse reviews. It was a no brainer...an affordable and well reviewed local business...I had my mind made up and my credit card in the holster ready to buy if I found something decent. Upon walking in, we were promptly greeted by Barry and had a quick discussion regarding the style I was looking for. He quickly found a suit that was right down my alley and that I could easily see myself getting into. This is maybe where we got off on the wrong foot. As Barry was talking about the suit, my fiance got out her phone to show him a picture of her dress, just to get his opinion on if they would match or not. She was quickly given a 'sweetie...no pictures' warning, as Barry thought she was getting her phone out to take pictures. This is fine, I understand his reasoning behind this, but the experience went downhill at this point. What happened from here...I'm still confused about. I began to ask questions about the suit, as he allowed me to try the coat portion on and educated us on the ins and outs of buying a suit for a good ten minutes or so. I liked how the coat fit, and was definitely thinking I needed to try on the whole get up. That's when he hit us with this...I quote: "I know I'm wasting my time with people like you. You're not gonna buy here, and I know that. You're gonna shop around and do what you do. That's okay. I don't mind helping you out. I really don't. You know why? You're young and you don't know any better. You gotta learn this stuff some way. I feel like it's my duty". This statement didn't sit well with me right off the bat. There's nothing worse than being told what sort of person you are. Stereotyping/assuming to this level is something I've rarely experienced in a retail situation. I don't tolerate it in my personal life, and absolutely won't stand for it when I'm voluntarily looking to give someone my business. I let it slide and moved on. We both at this point made a concerted effort to let him know that we were in fact very much considering buying a suit at his establishment. I even at one point said "I haven't heard the best things about Men's Wearhouse and other similar places, so I'm absolutely interested in making the purchase here if we can find something". I tried to make several not so subtle hints, that I was in fact very much wanting and willing to make a purchase with him, but he wasn't hearing it for some reason or another. He continued to almost 'anti-sell' us from this point out. It was extremely odd. It was like the opposite of being at a car dealership. We felt as if we couldn't try on suits or buy anything there even if we wanted to. He made multiple comments regarding shopping around at other places and continued to minimize our intention to buy. The odd thing was...he gave us all sorts of good advice regarding the ins and outs of buying a suit. However, at the same time he seemed unwilling and uninterested in selling us one personally! After about 25 minutes we finally decided it was time to go, as we really didn't feel very welcome. On the way out of the door I tried one more last ditch effort to let him know I was interested, it went like this: "So, if I end up deciding on this suit would I be able to come back in early October to get everything going?" Barry - "October...I may not be around. You'll probably have to go elsewhere". This was the story of our trip to Men's Apparel Club...the underlying feeling that our business wasn't wanted. I'm really not sure why or how this happened, some possibilities come to mind: -Communication style differences causing some sort of misunderstanding. -The phone issue getting the idea in his head that we had no intention of buying. -Us being young and Barry not taking us seriously. -Barry possibly having previous bad experiences with shoppers like us, leading to an unfair stereotype. -Some other issue I haven't thought of or didn't realize. It's too bad we had this experience, because the truth is. This place has the best prices in town by far. My suit at Men's Apparel Club - less than $250 My suit at Men's Wearhouse - $600 So in the end, I don't doubt that this is a great place to buy a suit for some people...it just wasn't for us based on our experience. Maybe I caught Barry on an off day, I'm not sure. Maybe Barry doesn't even realize the bad taste we left with. I'm now left in the odd position to thank Barry for all the great advice he gave me on buying a suit, then scratch my head and ask him why he didn't seem to want to sell me one. read more

Was told to go somewhere else by the owner. Guess our business and pleasant attitude just wasn't serious enough for him. Went here because it had such great yelp reviews and thought it was the best place to start our wedding suit shopping 3 months before the big day! Unfortunately we were told that this is NOT the first place to go by the OWNER himself. Apparently he wanted us to shop around at all the other suit places so they could do all the work of having us try suits on and he could skip out on it. He wouldn't even allow us to try on a suit!!! He said "It just takes so much time with people coming in and trying suit after suit on". Man that poor guy owning a suit shop, who knew people would actually want to try them on? So the customer service is non-existent unless you're willing to walk in and know exactly what you want right away. I'm not sure if he thought we weren't serious about buying suits or that we could afford it. We DID however take his advice and go shopping somewhere else... where we bought our suits... with someone that was willing to actually let us try them on! read more

This is not your typical suit store. A guy named Barry runs this place and he is definitely a character. He'll let you know what looks good and what doesn't. He won't necessarily cater to you just to make a sale, which I respect. Don't get me wrong, he was extremely pleasant while I was there and I had a great experience. In fact, I didn't even realize that I'd spent an hour just looking around the small store because he was like an entertainer. You SHOULD go if: You have an idea of what you want. You're flexible with what you want. You're looking for a low price. You should NOT go if: You don't want someone offering suggestions. You can't roll with a few lighthearted punches. You get jealous easily (he was harmlessly complimenting on another customers lady-friend throughout their purchase). Going forward, Men's Apparel Club will be my first stop when I'm looking for a suit. Also, I'm not a serial Yelper. As a matter of fact, I went through the trouble of resetting my password just so that I could leave this review. read more

I'm often dubious when I read reviews that mention people by name. They are almost always Spelp (Spam+Yelp). So I was naturally apprehensive when ALL the reviews here talk about Barry this and Barry that. Except, this place IS the exception. It's Barry's store and wouldn't be what it is without Barry and his unique personality. He is chatty, friendly, knowledgeable and very experienced. It doesn't hurt either that his quality is great and the prices are amazing. I'm in a suit every day and was looking to add 2 new suits to my wardrobe. Barry instantly knew my size and had me trying on jackets within minutes. Two great suits, including alterations and tax was less than $400 - that's about the same as one lesser quality suit at Jos A Banks or Men's Wearhouse. Thanks Barry! read more

Edit: Two plus years and four more suits later and I can firmly say Barry is the absolute best. He's always happy to see us and ALWAYS makes sure we find what we're looking for. Whether it's another suit for a wedding or a suit for my little brother's first prom, we're always taken care of and leave with an amazing suit. My boyfriend recently proposed and I can't wait to have Barry help us find my fiancé the perfect outfit for our wedding day! My boyfriend and I went to Barry with quite the predicament on Saturday around noon. We needed a suit for a wedding THAT NIGHT. Barry took one look at my boyfriend and knew what size he was. He immediately started pulling suits, showing us different styles, colors and fit options. He was very friendly and knew his stuff. It was clear he has been doing this for many years. We ended up selecting two suits (one for that night and one for a future wedding) and both were on sale for $99. We've never seen desginer suits at such a low price point and the customer service Barry gives you can't be beat. Barry's normal tailor was not in the store this day so he directed us to someone else who could do the alterations while we waited. The suit turned out perfect and my boyfriend was complimented on it all night. We will definitely be back to see Barry for all our future men's suit needs. read more

Here's my experience: First I read all the reviews. Looked good to me! Then I called up Barry and scheduled an appointment since I was a new customer. He was very humble about not being one of those snooty appointment only places, but it definitely pays off. He will focus his attention on you, and not the walk-ins if you have an appointment. At least that's what happened when I was there. This is a no-frills place. He won't hold your hand. If you don't know what you want, he's going to present to you a few high-volume, in-style, but very competitively priced suits. He will NOT show you EVERY suit. I purchased one suit. His tailor was out, so he fitted me and provided me the reasons behind it. It was very educational. He takes credit cards, but there is a cash discount. No returns. You must also pay for a years membership. He must be there to process credit cards. I.e., if his assistant is there, you must pay cash. Speaking about his assistant, I forget his name, but he's a charming old-school salesman that will overwhelm you with ridiculous complements. Be careful if you see him at the used car lot! I like the suit. It fits well, looks great, and I've received complements. It's wool and it's made in China with lots of references to Italy on the labels inside. :) Overall a good experience that will earn my business again. read more

Found this place after having searched the valley for a charcoal grey suit that we liked. Absolutely Fabulous!! It looks like a hole in the wall from the outside and is pretty basic on the inside but the suits are beautiful and all ridiculously priced. Barry treats his customers as if you are in an "old school" suit shop right in Manhattan! He know his stuff! The membership "fee" is a non-issue...$25. We received excellent, and I mean excellent, service and purchased a beautiful pin striped Ralph Lauren suit for less than $150 (that's with tax and fee)...Awesome! Bargain of the century!! Go there...you won't be disappointed. read more

I was on the fence about writing this, only because I'm afraid I'll come back for another suit in a few years and it'll be three times as expensive, because there will be a line of customers out the door, and the rules of supply and demand will take effect. Barry is the guy who owns and runs Men's Apparel Club. He's been fitting people with the right suit for years. He knows his stuff. He does not make a huge profit on suits he sells, and he's okay with that. What this means for you: Barry sells incredibly high-quality suits, and you will not find a better price for them anywhere. ANYWHERE. He'll probably tell you that himself when you visit him. He means it. It's not just a marketing ploy. It's the absolute truth. Just please, please don't try to haggle with him. It won't go well for you. If you think you can find a better deal on the same suit somewhere else, he'll write down the details of the suit to help you out. Then, when you come back to him, apology written all over your face, he'll expect you to grovel a little. And you should. read more

I need a suit ASAP, I procrastinated. Barry put me in a new, beautiful, matching Ralph Lauren suit, under $200. This was the best place for me to get a suit, Barry pulled suit after suit of great garments that were my size. I didn't waste any time. This is a guy that knows how to dress a man the right way the first time. I normally would spend hours at TJ Max or Ross and walked away with a sort of matching or slightly irregular suit for the same price. read more

Barry Schoenman is perhaps the friendliest (and the most talkative) shopkeeper in this city. These places are few and far between in Phoenix and the more we can support them the better. I've been shopping at this store for years ever since I started wearing a suit to work back in 2003. Infact, I am wearing a suit right now that I purchased from Barry in 2007 that still wears like new. It was $200! He is a nice guy, has great prices, and can special order anything. It's no wonder he has such a loyal customer base. read more

If you need a suit , this is the place to go. Barry is a real expert clothier and will steer you in the right direction. The prices are unbelievingly good. A real 5 star experience. I've usually shopped for suits at chains and you will never do that again after meeting Barry. read more

Men's Apparel Club - Men's Clothing Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I don't thing there is anything I can say about the store owner Barry that hasn't already been said before. We came to his store after researching many different places and couldn't be happier. Barry is an expert at what he does and has a charisma that would make you want to spend all day at the store with him. We came in for a suit for our wedding and he took one look at my Fiancé and new exactly what size he needed and which suit would work best for him. The prices are hard to beat and the quality of the suits are genuine (he even carries designer suits if that's what you're looking for). We walked away with a suit, shirt, belt and tie for just over $300 after tax. Don't waste your time and money going to the big stores, support a local shop like Barry's and enjoy your experience while walking away with a great product. We'll definitely be coming back here. I would give him more stars if I could. read more
