    Does anyone know if they have a warehouse or factory store? I live near Philly, I was wondering if they have one there. Anyone have any reviews with their suits?

    Landry's in Oxford, MS now carries H. Freeman suits. I have read several of the threads about the brand but need additional opinion. He doesn't subscribe to their MTM program and most of his suit business is special order for inventory reasons. Im looking to get a new solid navy suit this...

    A few weeks ago, after mentioning this shop as a possible source for Atkinson's Irish Poplin ties, I decided to check out their selection & check out the shop as a source for the mid-gray pinstripe sack suit I *need*. They did not have the Atkinson's tie I was looking for-- a hunter green...

    Most of my suits are traditional two button darted numbers with a natural shoulder and relaxed waist, and usually double pleats. I would like to branch out into sack suit territory and would like some info on which brands are best. I am aware of Brooks and J. Press, and would like to know how...

    I went to English American Clothier today. This is the factory where H Freeman and Tom James among others are manufactured in Westminster, MD. I got a tour of the factory floor where the clothing is made. They use a precision laser to cut the fabric to pattern specs. It's pretty cool. You...

    Would it be crazy to pay ~$750 (after 25% discount) for a Pressidential suit from J. Press, when one can get H. Freeman or Southwick MTM from Izzy for roughly the same price? Obviously the fit would be better with MTM, although that's not a huge deal, since I'm at least somewhat close to...

    I visited Izzy at LS Clothing today (a coworker was picking up a suit). I was pleasantly surprised when he presented me a large box of cloth swatches labeled "Southwick". Unusual Harris tweeds, gun checks, Robert Noble tweeds, camel hair (13oz), etc. - lots of good stuff. Turns out he just...

    Gentlemen, I really appreciate and enjoy reading your dialogue. Please pardon the wordiness which follows. For years I have searched for better-quality, 3 Button Suits, with old Southwick-like soft shoulders and lapels which roll to the top of (or even with) the top button(with a fairly high...

    Does anyone know the model name of the H. Freeman sack? I noticed that the local Dillards is now carrying H. Freeman MTM. I took a quick look through their book, but I didn't see a sack model. One of you O'Connell or LS customers should know this, huh?

    Just wanted to post a reply I received from the H Freeman contact for the O'Connells account: YES the suit you purchased from O'Connell's is full canvas construction. We use a soft flexible high count hymo canvas in our clothing, one the finest canvas linings in the industry. O'Connell's is one...

    I apologize if this has already been addressed, but can anyone tell me where I might find a "true" natural shoulder navy blazer? I have 2 Press blazers; one of which I like quite a bit, the other not so much. One is almost void of shoulder padding and is one of my favorite blazers (much like...

    I must admit, I have been pleased with the relative softness/slope of my recently purchased Samuelsohn suits/jackets. I can see a difference between these and the slightly more padded Press suits, as well as Brooks offerings. BUT, I wanted to report, I was in O'Connells over the Holidays and...
