This particular location of this quirky local chain has been around as long as I've lived in the Metro Boston area. It is like a hidden jem that is tucked away in this oddly shaped shopping arcade. There is even a small hill of a ramp you need to climb. The store is a lot bigger than one usually expects & they have a wide assortment of novelities, music, movies, comics & clothing. So much variety could be quite overwhelming but luckily their is always a good amount of staff to answer any questions you may ever have. Every time I am in Harvard Square I make sure that Newbury Comics is a stop. They always have a great mix of fun stuff. There are times that I don't have any items in mind but just really enjoy walking the aisles just to fill my mind with future gift ideas. Highly recommended if you happen to be looking for a quick, yet unique gift for someone. Truly a Cambridge institution. Check 'em out!

Their vinyl section was on point in my book-- mostly new releases, usually with a few of those picks on sale.

you know- I phoned in to discuss what I had in the way of used clothing- for possible Sale- that i…read morewill never fit into again. The gent that answered- was great, very patient- personable, he heard my story- what else you got? what size suits- etc. no rush, no hassle very polite. They had sufficient stock at the time- so maybe some other time when i visit Mass. ave. we can make a trade-in- give some gently used mens clothes a new home- This facility with this kind of staff- is surely worth a visit if you are looking to buy- Cannot imagine you NOT being treated with respect- from a Gent. that knows clothing- and it's worth. my evaluation, for your consideration- from an ole Geezer !!!!

Keezer's is an absolute life saver! I wasn't sure if they could resolve a certain cosmetic issue…read morethat I had with my gown, but I figured I'd ask them to see if they can make alterations as the worst case they can say is no. To my surprise, they said that they have an identical gown and a patch I was looking for! Instead of going through the trouble of making alterations, he said that he will charge me a small fee if I am open to swapping gowns instead, to which I agreed! That interaction really made my day because I was stressing at the idea of not being able to participate in festivities because my gown didn't reflect the right color scheme. I cannot recommend Keezer's enough for their outstanding service!

I don't know what I'd have done in lockdown without Ministry of Supply. We've been customers of…read moreMinistry of Supply for almost 10 years. They bring a high-tech lens to everything they do, and whenever they launch something new it always offers something innovative that no one else is doing. The clothes themselves can be washed and dried, and are comfortable enough for work-from-home wear but nice enough to wear to a real meeting (you know, when we have those again). Also, they can be washed and dried. Full stop. No "tumble dry low." No pilling or wrinkling or shrinking. But they also sell coats now, which are incredible - the Mercury jacket is heated and can be controlled by an app or by buttons within the jacket. The Great Auk is as warm as Canada Goose, with no down, and it's carbon neutral. They're also selling masks which are breathable and have filters.

I ordered a pair of Ministry of Supply pants in December and did not receive them until February,…read morewhich already felt like an excessively long wait for a roughly 200‑dollar pair of "business travel" pants. When they arrived, they were wrinkled out of the box and the cut below the knee was oddly baggy and flared. The hems were uneven and the sewing looked amateur, not what I expect at this price point. Although the pants technically "fit," they made me look frumpy below the knee and were not at the level of my usual professional wear. This did not improve with a trip to the dry cleaner and a pressed crease. The marketing that these are business attire you can travel in felt misleading, because the fabric wrinkled easily. The underlying issue was poor construction, not just temporary wrinkling. The most frustrating part was the return policy. By the time the delayed shipment arrived and I had a chance to assess the quality, the purchase was already outside their 30‑day return window, and customer service refused a return. In other words, the shipping delay effectively wiped out my ability to return a clearly unsatisfactory product. Given the combination of slow fulfillment, disappointing quality, and rigid handling of the return window, I would not purchase from Ministry of Supply again and would urge others to be very cautious about the quality and to watch the return timeline closely.
