Cordt always makes a visit to Balani unforgettable. His guidance created the best looking pieces in my closet, and the custom fit of each item just adds to the confidence level I feel when wearing anything made at Balani. I am looking forward to my next visit and can’t wait to work with Cordt on many more pieces!

I’ve been going to Cordt for 8+ years and will continue to go back for his knowledge, expertise, and professionalism. I’m extremely happy with all my purchases and I've never looked better! Whatever the occasion is, if you want to look your best, Balani is the place to be!

Balani is the ultimate custom experience. My husband and father have been Balani customers for years working with Cordt Withum. His professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. I can’t recommend enough working with Cordt to find that perfect fit!

I appreciated the attention to detail and guidance during my appointment- it helped me make confident, informed choices. The end product exceeded expectations!

Balani is my go-to spot for any dress attire. I have been going to see Cordt at Balani for all my dress shirts and suits for about 7 years now, and love the service and quality. I have been extremely pleased at how well the suits/shirts have held up over time. I am a little taller, slimmer build and off the rack never worked for me, so this proved to be a great solution. Cordt is extremely knowledgeable and has steered me in the right direction every time I go in to the shop. I am the 'well dressed guy' in my office, and love the compliments this clothing brings.

I’ve been working with Cordt at Balani for years and can’t imagine going to anyone else. I’m meticulous, detail-oriented, and a bit anxious when it comes to shopping for high-stakes items like formalwear. Cordt could not be a better partner in that. He knows everything inside and out, can cater to the finest details, and is dedicated to making sure you’re satisfied with your suit even once it’s made - all while being realistic, personable, and professional. If you’re ready to step your game up, look no further than Cordt and the great team at Balani.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Cordt Withum at Balani Custom Clothiers in Chicago to create my dream suit. From the moment I walked into the store, I was impressed by the wide selection of fabrics and the expertise of the staff. Cordt was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the entire process, taking the time to understand my needs and preferences. He made me feel at ease selecting a style that represented me best, and I never felt rushed or pressured. The final product was nothing short of amazing. The suit fits me perfectly and is made from the highest quality materials. I have received so many compliments on my suit, and I know that it will be a staple in my wardrobe for years to come. I would highly recommend Balani Custom Clothiers to anyone looking for a custom suit in Chicago. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, and the quality of the work is simply outstanding. Thank you, Cordt, for helping me create the perfect suit!

I have been a regular customer with Balani and specifically Cordt for years now. It is always a great experience where not only do I learn something but the recommendations and the look when the clothes/ jackets come back is next level. It is worth every penny spent and I have not once regretted my purchases.

The most informative and professional custom suit shopping experience you'll have in Chicago. I highly recommend to work with Corey. He is very knowledgeable and has a incredible eye for detail. I never felt as confident about purchasing a suit. Keep up the good work! I will be back soon!

I started shopping here after word of mouth. I looked up the reviews and they were very positive. I bought some stuff to coach in and I absolutely love how the shirts fit around the shoulders and chest area. Krista was awesome to work with. The customer service was outstanding. I highly recommend this company to everyone!

Product is great, communication was lacking and disorganized. Expected a better experience given the price-point. Attempted a referral of a family friend and retracted based on the consultants behaviors.

ridiculously overpriced clothing. mediocre quality. if i wasn't in a bind for a wedding, i never would have purchased.

Absolutely a wonderful experience. Ashley at the Dallas location was amazing. Professional, skilled and very knowledgeable. Can’t wait to put on my new suit.

I was disappointed

Joanna was excellent

excellent in every step of the process from making appointment to receiving the garment

I would say the consultant and shopping experience were good and met expectations. The lead time for the garments was disappointing, coming in longer than the maximum lead time quoted at purchase and more than twice as long as what was conveyed as the probable delivery time. I appreciate the environment had changed some with the early COVID situation impacting supply chains globally so on this I can be somewhat empathetic. That said, the slacks and the shirt needed rework. The waist on both slacks was too tight and that was hard to understand given I lost 15 pounds between when I was measured and the garments arrived. And the neck on the shirt was too loose and needed to have the button moved. Disappointing but I supposed not unheard of for first time customers. I haven’t worn the garments much yet so I cannot yet speak to their durability and wear but I am pleased with the look of each.

Need the perfect suit? This is the place to get one with an exceptional, first rate custom fitting. My consultant, the very beautiful and capable, Rachel Lutsky, made my appointment feel like we were creating something epic. Thank you.

Corrie and the rest of the staff are amazing. They take the time you need, walk you through all the options, a really tailored experience. Would highly recommend!

Fitting experience was great and very personal yet professional. I love my sports coat and trousers. I’m constantly receiving compliments for them.
