Commonwealth Proper

Mike at Commonwealth Proper defines the experience of buying custom mens’ clothing. Professionalism, relaxed private environment, and ultra-​high quality clothing is what you’ll find. I purchased a suit and three dress shirts from Mike, and the experience was great. As I reflect on the overall experience, I remain pleased that I chose to invest this time and money on my professional appearance. The only reason I refrain from a 5-​star review here is the cost of their tailoring — it’s expensive. But, if you’re even *considering* a custom-​made suit, do yourself a favor and visit Mike at Commonwealth Proper. You’ll be glad you did.

I saw some folks posting on instagram about a clothing company that recently opened a store in the ATL and I wanted to check out what this Philly company was all about. The process was simple, went to their website, scheduled an appointment, and headed on my way to the west side. Now here is the fun tricky part of things. Their showroom is located in the same complex as Cooks and Soldiers but the door to their showroom is located at the top of the parking lot and their is no sign. Now this might throw some people off, but for me, I thought it added to the low-​profile sort of under the radar that I love about this brand.
Once inside, Mike from CMMP showed me around their loft space, poured me a drink of scotch and we checked out some of their suiting options, shirts, and different fabrics. After about an hour of messing around with different options, we took a ton of measurements which, I liked because I have had a few made-​to-​measure shirts where they only took like 8 – 10 measurements and the shirts came out like shit.
Fast forward a few weeks, came back for my fitting, super happy and shirts fit great. Next up, going to get a winter jacket for fall.

the attention to detail, one on one service and exclusivity of this made to measure suit shop is at top. Hung out with the owner and had a glass of scotch while being measured. Cool place «speak easy» style and super cool peeps.
