The Men's Wearhouse - Reviews and experiences

The Men's Wearhouse used to be a go-to spot for buying a suit with top-notch customer service and a wide range of selection about 10 years ago. But my most recent visit left much to be desired. I waited 15 minutes before anyone even noticed me, and when they didn't have my size in stock, they had to order my pants. They said it would be ready in 5-7 days, but it actually took 3 weeks. And when I came to pick it up, there was only one staff member on duty, who was on the phone with another customer for 20 minutes. It was a far cry from the great experiences I've had in the past.

I went to the Men's Wearhouse in Calgary to buy a custom-fit suit for a wedding I have coming up. The store was all tidy and they had a lot of suits to choose from, which was great. But I was kind of let down by the service I got. Even though there were a few employees around, I was left waiting for a long time with no one saying anything to me. Some other customers who got there after me got help before me, which was pretty annoying. I get that they were busy, but just a quick "hey we'll be right with you" would've been nice.

I went to the store to find wedding clothes for my daughter and I was really let down by the service. The new employees who took the measurements didn't do a good job, so the suits were all wrong for both the groom and the kids. That's not okay, especially for something as important as a wedding. It's obvious that these young employees need better training to get the measurements right and make sure customers are happy. I've been coming to this store for nearly ten years, but if things don't improve, I might have to shop somewhere else.

I gotta say, my time at that store was really good. I went in to find a couple of new shirts and a tie, and a friendly employee helped me right away. Don Watson was really attentive and asked all the right questions to make sure I got exactly what I needed. He even offered to measure me for the perfect fit. Not only did I find the perfect shirt and tie, but Don also told me about some special deals they had going on, which was a nice surprise. Even though he had to help other customers too, he stayed calm and friendly the whole time. Overall, I left the store feeling really happy with my purchases and the service I got.

My recent experience with Men's Wearhouse was really disappointing. I bought a wedding suit but got sick with Covid and couldn't make it to the event. Even though I tried to explain the situation, the response from the store was not very understanding or empathetic. They made me feel stupid for not telling them earlier, even though I physically couldn't. The staff member I talked to lacked compassion, and it left a bad taste in my mouth. On top of that, I had to pay $200 for a suit I never got to wear. I won't be going back there again, that's for sure.
