I searched the internet for Florsheim shoes since the local store in West Covina has closed. The retailer closest to me was at this classy gentleman's clothing store in Claremont. I was in for a pleasant surprise, the owner, Armand, assisted me in making my purchase. He brought out several items and described the features, such as the stitching and type of leather. There are several styles in stock and much more available from the website. But, I enjoy shopping the traditional way of seeing and comparing merchandise in person. Online shopping and shipping is popular, but not good for everything! I decided to browse the shirts too, I chose a navy blue, casual long-sleeve style that can be worn with jeans or you can kick it up a notch for a business meeting by wearing slacks instead. This store carries designer shirts, slacks, suits, hats, socks, and shoes. There is a tailor on site to custom fit your order. I could compare this store to Nordstrom or Saks Fifth Avenue for their personalized service and quality of merchandise available. You will look like a fashion GQ model! The employees take time to recommend and suggest color schemes to match and coordinate your wardrobe from head to toe. Shop to add to your collection or for a special gift. No need to worry that your choice will not fit, the tailor will take care of everything, if an adjustment is needed. You will be just as pleased as I was. Please don't forget to tell Armand, that Rosemary sent ya!

I had a fantastic experience here when selecting a new suit. The owner was incredibly helpful and friendly, guiding me through the process with expertise. Not only did I find a suit that looked great on me, but the personalized service made the entire experience enjoyable. Highly recommend!

I had an amazing experience at xerxes! Arman crafted a stunning green tuxedo jacket for me that fit perfectly and looked fantastic. Cannot count the amount of compliments I got on it at a wedding! The attention to detail and craftsmanship were top-notch. He also tailored my pants flawlessly. The entire experience was smooth and enjoyable, and I highly recommend Xerxes for their exceptional work and customer service. I look forward to coming back!

This was the best experience I’ve ever had when it comes to suit shopping. I needed a new outfit for a wedding later that day and Arman was more than accommodating. He was very patient and understanding with the different styles and colors and came up with an amazing outfit that I could wear for different occasions! I highly recommend this shop if you’re in the area!

Arman is amazing! I needed a suit asap - wedding was coming up in a week and this man answered ALL my sporadic questions with grace and patience! Not only did I get the suit I needed - Arman shared his insights as to how the suit could be BEST worn (tailored). They have an inhouse staff member who can tailor the suit to your needs.The price?! AFFORDABLE - and I am going into the wedding with confidence. I'll be back for ALL my suit needs.Thanks Arman!

My wife & I stopped by here today because of the attractive clothes being featured both outside & in their windows. Once inside, the colorful fabrics were stunning. Ties, shirts, pants, jackets, shoes, scarves, socks ... everything for the distinguished gentleman who cares about how he looks! They even have an in house tailor!Overall, the prices seemed a little steep but the quality, cut & colors are truly unique & speak for themselves. They even have customized, personally designed ties designed by the owner himself! You'll get what you pay for in this store and look like a million bucks !

First, I really don't dress up very often. Second, I fear change. That said, Arman is not only a genius of clothing, he took the time to get to know me, what I was looking for, and to just help me understand what I might like. He opened me up to possibilities I hadn't considered and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I left with the nicest suit I've ever purchased I will be back to update my wardrobe in the future. Thank you for an amazing experience! .

I needed to find an outfit to wear to a black tie dinner w/ Prince (now King) Charles. Black tie has very specific and gendered requirements. I consider myself gender non-binary and I wanted to find something extra sharp but also slightly gender bending. Between Xerxes and Susa Boutique, they hooked me up! Roxy and Morgan were so fun to shop with and also so helpful to me in finding a unique look that felt authentic and true to myself. I felt confident and at the top of my game on this occasion that I'll remember for a long time! I mean - gold shoes?!? Whoda thunk? Thank you!

I have been going to Xerxes since I started grad school in Claremont in 2007. At the time I was a poor student and mostly spent time chatting with Arman and he knew this and still gave me as much time as he could, knowing I couldn't afford almost anything at that point. I made a goal to be able to get a wardrobe from his shop and repay him for all of the time, great conversations and advice that he gave me over the years, as we always stayed in touch. I was finally able to buy a suit, shirt, shoes, belt and tie, but more importantly, Arman gives education on how and why you build a wardrobe in a particular way. He is incredibly knowledgeable and is so calm, which helps the process, knowing that you will leave with exactly what you need. I left so excited that I met my goal, but also k ow so much more of how to dress myself in different situations needed in the near future. I recommend this shop to anyone looking for someone who honestly cares about his customers, the community and people in general! His products are also top notch. You will not regret your time here!

Great shop with many options to find your needs. For me, I was able to find the right suit of Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop. There was much providence to replicate what I wanted.

I live in Chicago but had the privilege of shopping here in person with my best friend from Pomona College (Class of 1979) pre-pandemic. Arman treats his customers with care, courtesy and professionalism, and I wish that his store were here in the Chicago area so I could more frequently visit and update my wardrobe with the high quality and fashionable clothing that Xerxes regularly stocks and updates. Most recently, I was able to purchase a birthday gift from Chicago over the phone for my classmate from Pomona and was treated with the same "in store" professionalism and courtesy that I had seen before in Claremont. Arman not only sent photos for me to review possible choices, he hand wrote a birthday card (he gave me choices for that as well) with the words I texted to him and gift wrapped and hand-delivered the gift in Claremont the very same afternoon I had worked with Arman on my gift selection. Arman defines service and professionalism and Xerxes defines fashionable gentleman's clothing. Thank you, Arman
