Always shopped for clothes at M&S before l discovered Slaters in Birmingham. The quality , choice & helpful but non intrusive staff offered by Slaters is unsurpassed by any store in Birmingham and l recommend/urge everyone to check it out, l am sure that you will be pleasantly surprised.

I rarely shop in Birmingham and found this shop just off the main street
The selection was really good and the price to match. I found everything I was looking for in Slaters and was really pleased with the service also.
Found when I got home (50 miles away) that I had picked up a L size instead of a XL which was my mistake. After a brief conversation with a member of staff on the phone it was agreed that I send back the smaller shirt and they will send me the larger shirt to my home in the post FOC. Now thats good service for you, saved me a lot of time and I would highly recommend Slaters in Birmingham

Eureka , I found it in a back street in Glasgow. After a 200 mile round trip it was certainly worth the effort. Slaters are impeccable,it was a most pleasurable experience to do busines with them .To be highly recommended.

Overall: Fantastic Place, Fantastic People, Extremely happy with my purchase
I'll admit now that I'm not particularly good with fashion, I'm far more practical than anything - so when a friend told me that he was getting married (and later that I was going to be one of the best men!) my first port of call was to look around for a suit.
A friend took me into Slaters in Birmingham. On entering I just went 'Wow!' - Suits as far as I could see. The Sales person came up to us to introduce himself and all he did was to point us in the right direction to the size and price of suits we were looking for - and then went away to help others as they came in.
Instantly it didn't feel like I was being sold to - I was being allowed to see the suits and look through the suits, but the assistant was there if we needed him, not only that but he was incredibly friendly and gave what felt like almost impartial advice - I had two suits, one £150, one £80, he said that the £80 had a better fit and that I shouldn't bother with the £150 one.
The overall experience was fantastic, I managed to get a 3-piece suit, shirt, tie for £140 which looks absolutely wonderful. I'm exceedingly happy, and I'll go back there again.

Slaters Menswear - Have been buying clothes and shoes both casual and for business here for 28 years and I can honestly say I never come away disappointed, my last visit was last month when I purchased a variety of Ben Sherman clothing ten pounds per item cheaper than Debenhams!!! and a Rockport and a Remus jacket top drawer quality at very reasonable prices so my wife tells me!!
Best gear in town without a doubt, still waiting to win the raffle, I like the assistant I deal with, really knowledgeable and not pushy.

i have shopped here a few times now after going there with a friend one day.
the staff are 1st class and very knowledgeable without being pushy or intrusive. i was looking for various items for a wedding reception and one member of staff showed me all i needed and even offered to alter the trousers free of charge before taking me to another department for the final items i needed. the prices are excellent and if you happen to catch a bargain like i did with a leather jacket for £59 then you will never shop anywhere else again.
don't be afraid to give it a try. you wont be disappointed

I used the Crawley Slaters for the first time last year. The service was so good that we have returned again and again. We recommend Slaters to everyone that asks about suits, as we truly believe their service is second to none.
I am not the easiest person to get a fitted suit for, and if it's wrong my suits look awful, the difference between my chest/shoulders and waist is not even close to average, and so 'off the peg' hang like sacks from me. The staff at Slaters spent a great deal of time finding the right suit for me, which was then tailored to get a perfect fit. This kind of service is the exact opposite of the service I have received elsewhere. In this World of ever growing apathy, it was wonderful to experience such an excellent service.

Slaters Menswear provides excellent customer service and good quality products at a reasonable price. Sounds like an advertising blurb but it is true.
As I have lost weight they have altered my suit free of charge.
I will always but suits from Slaters. I don't bother to look elsewhere.

Discovered the Liverpool branch 2 years ago and I literally do not shop anywhere else for clothes. I buy my work suits there and for between £50 to £100 less then Next, John Lewis or M&S. I get an excellent suit and I am served by someone who knows about tailoring and fitting rather than a disinterested teenager. Alterations are also done for free.
I cannot praise this store highly enough.

I've just visited Slaters Menswear in Manchester after having read the reviews on here.
I must say the shop is magnificent, the staff very helpful (not too pushy) and the range of stock and sizes must be unmatched anywhere else.
To quote Arnie "I will be back"!

I have been buying suits at Slaters Menswear in Cannon Street in Birmingham for the last 8 years.
I can't help going back each time. I know the selection will be fantastic, and the prices will be affordable.
The cut and style of the suits that they source is fantastic, proper tailoring.
The staff are very well mannered and "gentlemanly" which is a quality not usually seen these days when one goes shopping.
When you walk in you feel the atmosphere, and it makes you want to belong there.
I go at least once a month just to browse. I know the staff are probably getting sick of my face, but each time they always welcome me warmly.
My next planned purchase is a nice black pin-stripe I've had my eye on for 2 months.

I have just been to Slater Men’s Wear in Glasgow. I totally agree with your comments. They take you from when you enter the shop and they offer you a selection of goods that are cheep and shoddy. The do not listen to what you actually want. When you are partially forced to take a suit that is cheep and they tell you it needs altered but this is free. I looked on my receipt and it was not free. They tell you to come back like 4 hours later and the trousers they are tailoring will be ready. You get them home to find there is no loops for your belt to go through. The trousers are like a tent. The shirt you buy is also like a tent. The shoes you buy are cheep and won’t last a month.
I advise anyone who is thinking of going to Slaters DO NOT GO
This shop shows no customer service what so ever
They are only interested in the till department
I don’t even rate this shop as a single STAR
