Hello all,

A number of people have recommended English-American for MTM. How does one get access to their MTM program? I'm not about to use Tom James, and I live far away from their factory, which is somewhere in the East.

Is there another way to be able to use their MTM program?

English American is Tom James. They are one in the same.

English-American makes primarily for Tom James, but it also makes suits under the label H. Freeman & Son and other labels.

In NYC LS Mens Clothes sells H. Freeman, and I believe that it is also sold by Nordstorm.

If you have a retailer who sells H. Freeman in your area, that is an English-American suit.

Why not call English-American and get the names of retailers in your community?

Good luck.

English American is also an outlet for the Tom James factory in Westminster, MD.

I just picked up a suit today. Fits and looks great. The only time the store calls is when my suits are ready for pickup.

Like Coppley and Samuelsohn E-A is available at different shops around the country- check the better clothiers near you to see who their MTM is.

I thought it was the English-American factory which makes Tom James suits among others?

English-American is the factory-manufacturer. It makes Tom James suits among others, such as H. Freeman & Son.

Tom James owns English American. They bought it years ago. Individualized Shirts also

Crap, so by buying from English American, I am supporting Tom James? Ugh. Tom James is on my s*** list -- bad experience.
