Really enjoyed our shopping experience there. Good quality and fair prices, and Braden's 4 rules of shoes are awesome (you'll have to ask him). However, we had what we've come to refer to as our "suit saga" that was not so great. Alterations have been a nightmare - poorly done, then they tried to tell us the suits looked fine (they didn't) or that pressing would fix it (it didn't), or that my son's back was just too straight (???). I ended up fixing the pooching seams myself - I dared to fix the THIRD alteration. And to be honest, it was getting better each time. But I was really tired of the process. Found that the seamstress just didn't taper the seam gradually and that's what caused the pooching seam on the back.

Read moreI needed to buy a white shirt last-minute for my 11 year old son, and because of scheduling issues couldn't even bring him with me to the store for shopping. He can be tough to fit, as he is "big and tall" so I brought in one of his current button-up shirts that fits him to show the associate Matt.

Peterson's clothing saved me a lot of time and stress plus the price was as low as I would find anywhere else! Awesome service and...

My son is twelve and we wanted to get him a suit, he's super skinny around the neck and waist, but not tall enough for mens sizes. We went to the mall and checked JC Penny, Macys, Dillards, Kohls and Ross and couldn't even find a suit, shirt, pants, belts or even shoes. 15 minutes after getting to Petersen's we were walking out with a 3 piece suit and dress shirt. We didn't like the shoe styles so we ended up ordering 6 pairs on Amazon and sending the ones back we didn't want. Would be nice to have shoe options for his size that aren't slip on or square toe but overall I would highly...
