Had a terrific time at John H. Daniel with James on Friday. I showed up a "little" early (2h30m early), but James jumped right in to answer questions, give some style suggestions, update measurements, and get my order finalized quickly! Enjoyed every bit of it, and I look forward to my next visit.

The only place to get a suit in Knoxville. I've bought their store exclusively for some time. Reid and the staff are always helpful and attentive, even though I'm hard to fit.

The Knoxville showroom is so relaxed and classy it made me want to pour a glass of scotch, light a cigar, and shoot the breeze with the impeccably professional staff. These guys make you feel right at home. The service is excellent and the results are outstanding. Reid Slocum fit me with two terrific suits for work. I greatly appreciated his candor and guidance in making the decisions to produce some great clothes.

My experience selling made-to-measure custom clothing goes back to Maas Brothers Tampa Florida in 1970 and the folks at H Freeman and Hart Schafner & Marx. Fit fashion and fabric are my first love. I met the folks at John H Daniel in 1985 in Knoxville on our summer vacation with my wife and sons. i toured their factory and also the Hart factory in Chicago that summer. i'm retired now but i still work part time in sewing and selling. I am very pleased with the careful, quality service from John Daniel. I even spent 3 days in April at the factory. The training I received was very good. All levels
