Mon Jul 27 2009Very high quality clothing and accessories at a relatively affordable price. From belts to watches, shoes to underwear - Brooks Brothers has what you are looking for. Anything you would want - bags, suits, socks, even books on how to be more of a gentleman. Everything I have purchased from them has been of the highest quality. They also have a limited womans line. I recommend this company. W

Mon Jun 30 2008My absolute favorite clothing store. Conservative stuff that looks sharp and is appropriate for any business situation, as well as classy casual wear. High price but high quality. Some people criticize their lack of "edginess," but trust me, you wear "edgy" clothes and people are going to be silently judging your outfit instead of listening to what you are saying.

Fri Jun 27 2008WHATS THAT?
by emilychiang
Thu May 08 2008Maybe a year or two ago, women's shirts and men's shirts were both 3 for $189. Within the past year, they've raised the price on men's shirts to 3 for $199, and women's shirts to 2 for $149, hoping no one would notice that the rate of increase on women's shirts was over 18% while for men's shirts it was only 5%. This is pretty outrageous on their part especially considering how much more material goes into making a men's shirt in comparison to a women's shirt. Did they think women wouldn't be smart enough to figure out this blatantly sexist pricing?

Sat Apr 19 2008Superbly crafted clothing which will stand the test of time. Quality is first-rate. Higher prices, but they do offer sales which makes their items attractive when compared to higher end deparment stores. BB stands behind all their clothing and shoes no matter what. No questions asked. Most items are made in U.S.A., England, Italy, or the Far East. But when they are made in China, the material is imported from Europe usually. Very friendly and helpful staff and they are not overbearing nor patronizing.

Wed Oct 03 2007As for the comment below about Ralph Lauren being more fashionable, this is sometimes true, but let's remember that Ralph Lipschitz started out by selling ties for Brooks Brothers on Madison Avenue.

Sun May 20 2007Ordered items on last Monday, it is now Sunday and they still have not shipped, in spite of my being told on checkout they would be out within a day or two. Moreover, I did not even get the standard e-mail confirmation and delay updates other merchants provide. The order is in the system (shows up under my accounts tab) but they just do not communicate with their customers. To add insult to injury, half the items I ordered that were listed as in stock and reserved are now no longer in stock and will be delayed. Getting one's distribution system right is key to e-commerce. In this Brooks has failed me repeatedly (I'm frequently subject to false availability info). They should fix these problems or take the site down. Ordering from them and expecting on-time delivery is a bit like playing the lottery.

Fri Apr 13 2007A hegemonic cornerstone, the prices are overinflated, but a better quality button-down I've never come across.

Sat Mar 24 2007Y-A-W-N. They do their utmost to recreate Ralph Lauren but have little of the latter's pizazz and quality. I'll stick to RL on Ebay if I'm going to pay the same price.Update: my comment refers to women's clothes in the last 2 years.

Thu Dec 28 2006Everyone here says BB products are quality and they are. The Wall Street Journal tested suits for quality a few months back and BB came out roughly 2nd for strength of weave, 1st for wrinkle resistance, and was one of the few that actually had the "Super XXs" wool level advertized. As for price, pay attention to the sales, as they are great! They just had their "Day After Xmas Sale" and I got two of their "1818" suits, normally $898, for $508 each. As for style, I think they are conservative, but it you just take a little time to look over all their styles, you can find some that look totally modern and fresh... just not as many as say Calvin Klien. I'm 27 and have 4 suits from them that women my age have frequently complimented me on. You just have to look harder and have a good sense of style yourself to put it together since their normal stuff is conservative. Oh, and WSJ also ranked their non-iron dress shirts about second overall (behind Jos. A Bank). At the sale menti... Read more

Sun Oct 23 2005Gosh, I haven't bought a suit in 15 years or more. Proably don't even fit into the half dozen still in the closet.

Fri Feb 04 2005I have several Brooks Brothers suits, dress shirts, pants and jackets and I have never been dissapointed with the quality. In my opinion, you can not find a better suit for under $1,000. I have been hard pressed to find shirts and pants that are as reasonably priced for the quality as well.

Sun Dec 26 2004Quality has really gone down hill. No suit lasts longer than 2 years. Now, so has the service.

Wed Aug 18 2004Brooks Brothers provides tasteful and sophsticated clothing that truly is timeless. When you pay for a Brooks Brothers item, you're paying for clothes that will last you a life time as a result of it's quality. All of my experinces at Brooks Brothers have been very pleasant and the staff is always helpful and do not hound you. The atmosphere of the store is also always clean, quiet, and organized and never too crowded.

Sat Jul 24 2004I will admit that it has been some time since I have visited a Brooks Brothers store; however, I have always found their selection to be too conservative. For one who is looking for something that is high quality with timeless style, Brooks Brothers is a sure bet, but if one is looking for something more edgier, then try elsewhere.

Fri Mar 26 2004Dorky clothes for borish people. The quality is great but you will pay for the label. This was a great place to shop in the '80's.

Sun Jul 21 2002Brooks Brothers clothes are, for me, the most comfortable and enduring of any men's store I've seen. Even their factory outlet shops feature good-quality merchandise at reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

Thu Sep 21 2000Best quality, classic style and helpful salespeople. There are not many stores that live up to these standards. Brooks Brothers is a top quality store.
by sperryc
Wed Jun 28 2000The Brooks Brothers clothing I own stands out as the highest quality in my wardrobe. I'm not a regular shopper, though, because I can't afford it. When I DO shop there, I trust that whatever I'll buy will last and won't be out of style for a while.

Fri May 05 2000Top quality, but high priced. I did have a good customer service experience there. I bought a shirt at one of their stores (on sale) and the neck shrunk significantly. So, a year or two later, I brought it back, they measured the neck, saw that it had shrunk by over an inch, and gave me a new shirt.

Fri May 05 2000I always been very pleased with everything I've ever purchased from Brooks Brothers. Good quality, and decent prices. Some of their ties are a little funky but most of the stuff I like.

Tue Nov 16 1999Some things should never change -- I hope Brooks Brothers is selling the exact same suits when I croak at age 120, and that I'm buried in one of them.

Tue Nov 09 1999Boring and overpriced.

Sat Oct 30 1999Great place for relatively conservative men's clothing.
