I personally had a horrible experience with Abbots package deal. Nothing fit right...but they have a tailor on site, so it's all good. Not! They measured me, pinned jacket pants and shirts, tailored them and shipped it all to my house. Groovy I thought.

It all drowned me. When I went back to training, I took them all in for a second fitting and re-alteration. Still didn't fit right.

Had to get a local seamstress to alter the pants a third time.

My advice...Go to crew outfitters for the package deal. Get extra shirts online and extra black pants from Kohl's, JC Penny's, Macy, wherever. I'm still wearing my black patent leather uniform shoes I was issued in ROTC 25+ years ago. Work great and broken in. With about 1/4 inch of polish on them, I won't ever put polish on them again...just buff em out! Though, I will probably end up with Ropers eventually.
