I'm a Jos. A Bank type of guy. How does this affect me? Are all the locations being re-branded? |

Guessing you and my grandfather will have a great sale coming up. I'm a JA Bank guy. I think their stuff has more quality then MW. Plus, JA Bank's stores always seemed much cleaner and the help seemed more informed. |

I agree, total quality, very traditional everything. yet, they bought a company with lesser quality products, but that company has a market share that JAB wants. Younger hipper crowd, because JAB sales have been declining. When I worked for a living, I would buy stuff at JAB, but hope to never go back into that outfit. Literally |

This wouldn't be happening if more of you savages traveled by air in a respectable fashion. |

I must've gotten unlucky. First time I shopped there everything I bought at JAB began unraveling within a year. Swore it off for you get what you pay for. |

I can't afford to dress the way I would like, so I pretty much gave up. I wear pants I bought 20 years ago. Thankfully wool wears like iron. |

I bought a Burberry sport coat on eBay for $20. It was unused. Alas, it was too big to be altered so I gave it to my dad. He doesn't care if its too big. |

It would be nice if they opened a Jos Bank in O'Hare Airport. |
