This is not your everyday men's shop by any means. Entry is by definition an act of indulgence. That being said, expect great service and to feel pretty good about how you look on the way out. Place to go when only the best will do......

Impressive depth of knowledge, a simply terrific array of fine suits and menswear, and just a really comfortable environment to hang out and enjoy the experience of getting exactly what I needed for my wardrobe. From top to bottom, a richly rewarding experience!

Purchased a custom suit for my wedding from Marc Allen, and I have to say what an experience. The most in depth measurements I've ever had for a suit fitting, in a good way. They were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable from start to finish. I don't normally wear formal attire so I really had no idea where to start. They diligently listened and helped guide me in the right direction. Josh and Marc(?) were great. We had some great laughs, and they really made me feel welcome and like I was one of the guys. The store is wonderfully kept and has a great atmosphere. I just tried on my custom 3 piece suit today, and I have to say, it's the most comfortable formal attire I have ever worn. Everything fits snug but movable. It follows my curves and compliments me beautifully. I've only ever experienced Mens Warehouse where they get you close to the suit looking good. Marc Allen is on a whole other level. I will never dred formal dress ware again. Marc Allen has a customer for life. I will DEFINITELY be purching my suits/dress ware from them in the future. Can't wait to get another suit from them. A 5 star luxury experience. If you want a custom suit with a fun, great experience come here. A++++++

Joshua Jacob at Marc Allen is by far the most experienced, dedicated and talented clothier with whom I have had the pleasure to work. My job requires "top of the line" and refined suits, as well as casual wear---and Josh excels in his ability to put the perfect outfit together. Josh's understanding of my taste in clothing, combined with his knowledge of the demands of my employment, allow me to be reassured that my appearance will exceed expectations. He is unbelievably responsive, easily available, and remains patient, despite my rather particular demands. As I prepare for my upcoming wedding, and complete the process of designing the required wardrobes, I am once again relieved to defer all the decisions to an expert whose talents are second to none. Thank you Josh!!!

Josh is great.Josh helped select and fit my wedding weekend wear. He expertly picked a suit, suit jacket, shirts, ties, socks and shoes.My favorite, of course, is the elegant blue suit (w/ coordinating everything). But, my new orange sneakers are a close second!Josh’s experience, eye and ability to “marry” personality to attire are chief among his talents. He accommodated our schedule, provided much need espresso, and laughed at our jokes. Most importantly, he added joy to what is going to be a GREAT celebration.Highly recommend Marc Allen, and in particular, Josh…TJD

I had an amazing experience buying a wedding suit at Marc Allen.I called and visited every decent suit shop in RI and Boston and none came close to the level of excellence and service I found there. They are truly in a different league, beyond comparison.I knew I wanted to look good for my wedding, and had some rough ideas about what that meant. But there are *so* many details to consider. It was overwhelming. I came to Marc Allen feeling exhausted and confused after visits to a dozen other spots. I walked in with nothing but a photo of Ryan Gosling as my inspiration and they exceeded my expectations.Colin and Will aren't just salespeople, they are men's clothing and formal wear experts. And even more importantly they're patient, enthusiastic, and fun. I was kind of a diva about choosing my outfit and Colin was absolutely there for all of it from the moment I walked in. He answered all my crazy questions, was flexible when I was indecisive, and helped me feel confident about all my choices.I ended up getting a completely custom tux jacket from Marc Allen, and Colin helped me source and choose every other piece of clothing for the outfit. They took my measurements and tailored every item, putting it all together for me. They also found the perfect bow tie and cummerbund to round it out.The jacket fit perfectly and looked amazing. I got so many compliments from our friends and family, and it felt like exactly what I was imagining. It's incredible quality, too. It was not the cheapest option but it was SO worth it.I would trust them beyond a doubt with any men's clothing or style need. I recently moved from Boston to Ohio, but when I need a new formal outfit in the future you bet I'll make the trip to RI to visit Marc Allen again.

Truly unparalleled in the New England area. They offer fabrics, designs and service you really can’t get anywhere else remotely close to Providence. The salesmen in the store were super helpful and knowledgeable, and they turned what I had expected to be a typical shopping jaunt into a surprisingly enjoyable experience. Very happy with the clothing I purchased and I will definitely be back.

I have had the pleasure of purchasing a number of custom made to measure garments from this menswear shop. the quality and attention to detail is second to none. without question, this is their true area of expertise.similar experience holds true on the off the rack side; customer service and varied selection of what they carry seasonally in the store is top notch.even if you are only in the mood to shoot the breeze and check out the goods you will not be disappointed.

I went to Marc Allen for a suit and I couldn't be happier with the suit. Will and Colin were super easy to work with. They sized me quickly and the results are amazing. It fits me better than anything I've ever owned.

Knowledgeable, personable, and all around great group of guys on staff. The only place in Providence worth going to if you're looking for an upbeat atmosphere while picking out the highest quality men's clothing.

The only aspect that surpasses the fine quality and style of the clothing at Marc Allen is the exceptional knowledge and service offered by the entire staff. Will has been especially helpful over the years. He is never pushy, but rather educates me on the principles and trends of men’s fashion in order to guide me to exactly what I’m looking for during a given visit. It’s rare that I look elsewhere when shopping for clothing!

If you are in the market for high-end menswear, there is no better retailer than Marc Allen! I have been a proprietor for years now and am always impressed with the quality, fit, and durability of their garments. The in-store experience is always a great time as well; their salesman Will is particularly intelligent and knowledgeable when it comes to their clothes and the latest trends!!! Thank you for all you do Marc Allen, can’t wait for my next fitting!

After 61 years of life, I have finally found the place that meets all of my clothing needs, conveniently nestled in a charming section within the heart of Providence. Marc and his staff have provided me with a proper introduction to finer men's clothing, starting with the building of a base wardrobe for business and leisure. The feel and look of the fabrics that Marc has chosen are amazing. The fabrics, combined with meticulous custom fitting, offer a sensation that is difficult to be put into words. How can a snug waistband not feel snug? How can you move effortlessly and feel as if you have no clothing on, yet you do? Why am I not continuously tucking in my shirt throughout the day? I do not have the answers to those questions, but Marc and his staff make those experiences happen, along with many, many more. Folks, these are wonderfully personable and knowledgeable gentlemen. I hold them all in my highest regard and wholeheartedly recommend Marc Allen Fine Clothiers. I am looking forward to what the future holds as I work with them to build my wardrobe over the years to come!

I needed a suit for my daughter's wedding, and found Marc Allen after some internet sleuthing. They were very helpful, knowledgeable have A LOT of great material to chose from. The suits are made in Italy. The suit was the first suit I ever bought that felt like it fits. I am very pleased, and my wife is very pleased.
