Ben Lawler

phenomenal experience at Tom James! I went to Tom James on a recommendation from a family friend. I decided to invest in a fully tailored suit and custom dress shirt as a graduation present to myself. I absolutely love the quality of the material and fitting! Ben was super helpful and kind - he made the whole experience super fun. I just wore it for the first time for my brother’s wedding and it was awesome. When I’m ready for a blazer or another dress shirt, I will going back to Tom James!

I had an outstanding experience working with Ben while being fitted for my first suit. From the moment I walked in, Ben carried himself with the professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail you would expect from a truly high-end tailor. Since this was my first suit, I was not completely sure what to expect, but he made the entire process feel comfortable, refined, and personal. Ben took the time to walk me through the fit, the details, and the overall look, making sure everything came together the right way. His eye for detail was immediately clear. He noticed things I never would have thought about and made adjustments that completely elevated the suit. Nothing felt rushed, and it was obvious that he takes real pride in his craft. What I appreciated most was the level of care he put into making sure I not only looked my best, but also felt confident. Getting your first suit is a memorable experience, and Ben made it feel like one. The final fit was excellent, and the whole experience reflected the quality and professionalism of someone who truly knows what he is doing. I would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a first-class tailoring experience. He is knowledgeable, precise, professional, and genuinely committed to making sure every detail is right.

Not only is Tom James product great. The service of Ben Lawler takes it to another level! Ben sets the standard for anyone in his industry.

By far the best experience I've ever had buying suits. Ben is the ultimate pro and makes the experience so easy and efficient. He pays attention to every detail and the suits come out perfect. I wouldn't work with anyone else after working with Ben.

Ben Lawler will take care of you with absolute care and attention to detail. Give him a call now!

I have had multiple outstanding experiences with Ben Lawler and the Tom James team! I have been working with Ben and his team for about a year now. From our first meeting, I was greeted with genuine warmth and professionalism. The attention to detail is unmatched — every fabric, stitch, and fit is handled with true craftsmanship and care. What really sets Ben apart is the personalized service, often Ben knows what I am looking for before I can tell him what I want. The quality of the garments is exceptional, and you can tell the entire Tom James team takes immense pride in their work. What's more is that Ben isn't going to nickel and dime you. Ben has put rush orders on new items, has provided emergency tailoring for garments from other companies, and provides concierge service when necessary. For Ben and his team, it's never about the money it's about providing a valuable service to his trusted clientele. Not only is been a trusted haberdasher, he's be come a genuine friend. We have had the opportunity to golf together and to enjoy various sporting events in and around the St. Louis area as friends. I have built a relationship with Ben and referred many of my friends and colleagues to him for their custom needs. Since I first started working with Ben, I have referred my wife, my father, and many of my closest business associates to him for their haberdashery needs. I simply cannot say enough good things about Ben and his team. If you’re looking for timeless style, top-tier quality, and a truly tailored experience, Ben is the man and Tom James the place to go. Highly recommend!

Ben does a wonderful job. He is up to date on my needs and always asks if I have anything coming up that would require new clothes. I probably do not fit the demographic of many Tom James customers. As an hunting and fishing outfitter, many would think my appearance is not crucial. However, my clients instantly get a sense of first class upon my appearance, and curiosity as to where I get my clothes. I have no problem sending them to Ben. I know he will take very good care of their needs. As a business owner, automotive, software and outfitting, I have total confidence that Ben has my closet full of the perfect inventory to see customers. Overall, we make each other heros. Thank you Ben

Ben is the best in the business. Incredibly professional and courteous. Recommend to everyone.

Ben is nothing short of the finest clothier I've ever worked with, not to mention an absolute gentleman. He never pushes. He never wheedles. He never tries to talk me into something I really don't want. Rather he helps me find the suit I want, and helps me avoid the pitfalls of buying something that looks good in a small square but on me would look clownish. He has excellent taste in his own wardrobe, but he sets that aside because we've spent enough time together that he actually understands my aesthetic and knows what kind of look *I* want to achieve...not the kind of look he wants.Every single item of clothing I've bought with Ben's direction is a garment I'm proud to be seen in. Now...take all of that and add in that he will come to your home or office to take initial measurements, to do an incremental fitting, and even deliver the finished garments. He has become a trusted friend and advisor. If I look good at all in my wardrobe, it's because Ben made me look good. Also...gents...if you've never bought a custom fit dress-shirt...just try one. They're a little on the spendy side for me, but once you own one, it's all you'll ever buy.

Ben Lawler does some amazing work. Him and his whole staff are extremely helpful. I would highly recommend them!

Ben is the best. Very happy with results.

What a great overall experience! Ben Lawler was phenomenal from start to finish. Suit fits perfectly and is an exactly what was asked for.

Ben Lawler is the consummate professional. His dedication to customer service and consistently delivering exceptional garments is second to none! For those looking to add a bit of sprezzatura to your closet, Ben is definitely your go to guy!!!!

Ben Lawler at Tom James has been working with me for years to update my wardrobe. The fit is always fantastic and I get comments regularly about the unique blazers I wear. The shirts are also fitted, which helps make the outfits complete. Give him a try, you'll love the fit and look.

My husband and I have been going to Ben for his custom clothes for the last 5 years and couldn't be happier with the experience. Ben's demeanor and genuine care and attention on behalf of his clients is unmatched. Highly recommend working with him if you get the chance!

Ben Lawler continues to astonish me with his ‘impeccable sartorial ministrations’. He always arrives on time(and with a bright, spirited smile). He immediately, and with great attention, attends to my clothing needs. He truly is a paragon of professionalism and excellent customer care! Tom James is very fortunate to have him on their team. He really is setting the Industry pace. He’s Tom James personified! Nonpareil in my book! Tino Trova

Ben Lawler is the man. Painless process to get tailored. Getting a suit with Tom James is an investment, not a cost. Appreciate how the team helps you think through filling out your wardrobe.

In addition to high quality tailoring, Ben and team provide great customer service. I needed my suit for an event and was tied up at an all day medical appointment for my wife. He made arrangements to deliver the suit to me at the medical facility. Well done.

Ben got me hooked up! I’ve been looking for a tailor and have spent a few rounds with different offices around town. Ben delivered everything he promised; the right material, a fresh and clean look, and a garment that wears like it was made for me. As it should. I found my go to guy - Thanks Ben.

Ben Lawler is the man. Have worked with him for years and get compliments on my attire on a daily basis. He is always attentive to my needs and the clothes fit perfect.

Ben Lawler and I worked together to update my entire wardrobe. 5 Custom tailored suits, shirts, belts, shoes, etc. when I tell you the process was so comfortable so simple and clean, I was simply blown away. It is so difficult for me to find dress cloths that fit my frame, the quality of the fabric and attention to detail impressed me beyond what i could expect. Very pleased with my purchase, very pleased with the service. I look forward to returning to update my more casual cloths very shortly.

Ben Lawler is absolutely incredible when it comes to taking care of his clients. I've bought 2 suits from Ben and both were SPECTACULAR! They were exactly what I wanted and I'll never buy another suit from anyone else. If you haven't met with or talked with him, I HIGHLY recommend you go to Tom James for your next suit or formal wear!

Ben Lawler is great he was very responsive and got me the perfect suit for my wedding my experience with him and his company was enjoyable and now I have a suit that is not only good looking and comfortable but a special memory and something I hold dear. I can't thank him and the people at tom james for making the suit I wanted.

I couldn't be more impressed with Ben's top tier service!
