- "It was love at first sight as I took in the suit's beautiful, finely-detailed simplicity. When I put it on, it was nearly perfect. I say "nearly" because I apparently lost a pound or two in the four weeks... the following week, the suit was ready for another fitting. In a word: wow. He was ready to make further adjustments if necessary, but he had nailed it. I had never worn anything that fit this perfectly or felt this good."

- "All suits jackets are fully canvas (no fusing) and my favorite detail is that the buttons are anchored on your jackets (which is a feature I am to see in any other custom clothing brand). With the addition of their eCommerce site, anyone is able to purchase their products online and can consult with their style advisors live via the web (E-tailor service). Overall, Imparali gets an A for service, product and general experience."

- "I entered into this endeavor hoping for the perfect charcoal grey suit, and that's exactly what I got. It's a conservative, well-cut suit made of good fabric that compliments my build and contains all of the little details I asked for executed exactly. It is a garment that I should be able to wear for many years to come, which is exactly what you'd want from a custom suit. Bravo Imparali!"
