“Visited here on 5/9/26 stressed about not being able to find a suit. Mark was absolutely incredible from the moment we stepped in and was so helpful in finding the perfect suit. Everyone went above and beyond to help me choose from the huge selection of suits, and the whole experience was genuinely great fun from start to finish. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming and made what could have been a stressful experience really enjoyable. It felt like nothing was too much trouble, and I left absolutely buzzing with the suit I chose. 10/10 experience and I’ll definitely be using them again!”

“My fourth purchase from this store and another superb quality bargain. Fast proving to be my favourite place for quality menswear at incredible prices. And for those with odd body sizes like myself, just contact them in advance before ordering.”

“I received the garment promptly and it fitted extremely well. This is always my expectations when I place an order with Richard Paul, and I have never been disappointed.”

“Last minute panic, can’t find my morning suit and Ascot is next week!!! Went online order tail coat, arrived in two days, thank you for great service and quality product!”

“My husband is a plus size and we were trying to find a Morning Suit for him to wear in an Amateur Drama production. We honestly didn't think we were going to find anything affordable that would fit. But this shop was a lifesaver! We found them online, we live in Hampshire so had the suit, trousers and waistcoat delivered. These were all from the Pre-Loved (ex-rental) clothes that they had available and they had up to 60 inch clothes, we were so impressed. A special thank you to James who dealt with it all by phone, because he tried to keep the clothes as affordable as possible, considering the suit is only going to be worn for 3 performances. Many thanks and we will be back for a pre-loved suit jacket at some point in the future, due to the generous sizes and brill service!”
