Policke Hamburg

source
As I mentioned, Nico and Dad both got their suits for the wedding from Policke in Hamburg.  It was quite the round trip from Bremen both times we went there but so worth it.  We did try Bremen first but there are only two decent suit shops here and they only sell the suits as a set so if you need a different size trousers to the ones they suggest for the right sized jacket, you're stuffed.

Policke had so many benefits.  First of all, they sell the matching trousers and jackets separate so it's perfect for any size.  Also, they just took one look at Nico and knew what size he needed.  They translated the sizes in the blink of an eye (English and European are different).  

They are extremely helpful and really know their stuff.  The range is incredible; four floors of suits that look like the image above.  Then they have separate premises on the same street where you can buy shirts, cufflinks, ties, shoes...just about anything you could need to go with your suit.  The staff were equally friendly and helpful everywhere and they do alterations if you need them too!  

For all this service, you would expect the prices to be through the roof but they were on a par with, if not better than, those in Bremen.  Highly recommendable.
