Had disappointing experience here as a fairly frequent DXL shopper as we were harassed by the store manager. Partner and I went in to go pants shopping and the store was practically empty on a Sunday afternoon. As DXL clothes (and big and tall clothes in general) tend to vary widely in sizing between brands and also are expensive we both tried around 5-6 options before finding some ones we settled on.
As we were folding and rehanging our pants outside the dressing room we were confronted by the store manager who asked what the issue with the clothes was. when we told him we were trying things on and found what we wanted we received silence and an uncomfortable look. when we asked if that was an issue he told us “Yeah that’s too much” a and then walked away from us leaving us shocked.

Also, the Sketchers were HALF what I usually pay for his sneakers. When you pair that with the absolutely phenomenal customer service…well I’m just so happy and grateful I found somewhere low key yet elegant that I can shop and have and fun banter with...
Read moreThe clothes are very nice and the staff is knowledgeable and very accommodating. That being said however the clothes are quite expensive but that is understandable because it is a specialty store that caters to larger individuals such as myself. You usually can't find a lot of the sizes that they carry in general department stores. not sure if anybody realizes how hard it actually is to find a 2X tall in a regular department store. You can often find 2x but finding the tall sizes are often very difficult. as for the price if you get the app and are a regular shopper you can save some money they alsooften send out coupons to people that are on their mailing list so you can save some money...
