So I'm going to get personal with this review. My grandfather was a stylish man. He was also a hardworking, loving, tall, ladies loving, doting, sweet tooth having, moonshine drinking man. He never left the house without his clothes ironed and a hat on his head. My grandfather always wore great hats from the fedora with an actual goose, peacock feather to his worned dusted baseball caps. His favorite were flat caps or as we know them as kangols. Being a black man during the Jim crow era wearing what was called and still is a golfer cap was rare. He didn't care what folks say those caps were fly and the ladies love them and he was a ladies man. He was also married to my grandma but he was always there for her and all of his kids. He died over a decade ago and for the life of me I couldn't find a kangol. It wasn't til after his funeral that somebody told me to check out K&G and well I've been going there ever since. Also since I have a big head and the kangol company made single size caps so yea I wear only kangols. I know there are some companies who make single size flat caps and I dabble but the kangol caps mean alot to me. Just like jimi Hendrix along the watch tower which was the first thing I heard after getting the news of my grandfather's death. They mean more to me than a song or cap. They remind me of the greatest man...
Read moreI just came back from K&G and I am truly and highly disappointed with the way that I was treated tonight. The store closes at 9pm on Thursday and they already had the door locked at 8:23pm!! I was getting ready to get in and one of the employees expressed the fact that they were closed as I tried to get in while she was letting another customer out. I wasn’t gonna let up until I was allowed in.. Another one of their employees, I’m assuming that she was one of the managers… I never got any names. I’m just assuming so, finally let me in after a few min standing outside the locked door at around 8:30pm. She asked me how I was gonna pay and I told her by card as I proceeded to walk inside, I thanked her. I pretty much knew what I wanted, since it was an item that I was contemplating on from a previous visit so, all I had to do was grab and go. I did so, I proceeded to checkout and the same lady who was trying to stop me from entering the store rang up my merchandise, thanks but no thanks. I was a loyal customer but today, you just lost one. I will not be returning to...
Read moreI have bought so many suits here I have lost count. Can always find a deal. Staff have always been friendly and helpful. I only have a slight complaint as of late. My alteration experience has gone down. I know they are a separate entity but sometimes that's all I need and that brings me to the store. The prices have sky rocketed and the quality is a little off. Last year I took 3 tuxedos in to be altered. That was both pieces. It was about $150. A month ago we took in 1 suit and 5 slacks. $360. The suit was $106 by itself and I had to take it back because 1 leg was longer than the other and one was tighter than the other. The slacks (just to slim the leg and shorten) $40 apiece. I scant EVER do that again. So, it's possible we will go on for a sale but not...
