Frequently Asked Questions
How is my fit determined?

What suits should I own as a foundation?

Whether you need boardroom-ready suiting, sport coats for the golf course, classic business suits, or smart-casual separates, our curated selection covers every occasion.

What is appropriate for black tie, weddings, or seasonal wear?
Dressing for formal events, weddings, or changing seasons is something Seeley’s clothiers have guided clients through for over 100 years. We carry formal wear and a full range of suiting and separates suited to every occasion – from black tie events to outdoor summer weddings. Our consultants can advise on what’s appropriate for your specific event, dress code, and personal style. Visit us at 910 Main St, Rapid City, or book a style consultation online at seeleymensclothing.com/consultation.
Can you adjust suits purchased elsewhere?
Seeley’s alteration services are reserved for garments purchased in-store. We prefer to work with our own brands and fits to ensure the highest quality outcome for every customer. That said, we assess outside garments on a case-by-case basis – if you’re unsure whether we can help, we encourage you to bring the garment in or give us a call at 605-341-1200.
How should I care for my suit?
A well-made suit from a quality brand will last for years with proper care. At Seeley, we’re happy to share garment-specific care guidance with every purchase. General best practices include hanging your suit on a shaped hanger after each wear, allowing it to rest between uses, and steaming rather than ironing to remove creases. Our clothiers can advise on the specific care requirements for the fabrics and brands you purchase – just ask during your fitting.
How often should it be dry cleaned?
This depends on how frequently you wear a garment and the fabric it’s made from. Our clothiers at Seeley are always happy to provide guidance on the right care routine for your specific purchase, including how often dry cleaning is appropriate. Proper care advice is part of the service – we want every garment you buy from us to last and perform at its best.
What factors influence pricing?
Pricing at Seeley reflects the quality of the brands we carry and the level of customization involved. Custom suits and shirts involve individual measurements, fabric selection, and in-house tailoring, which are reflected in the price. Ready-to-wear pieces from our curated brand partners – including Hart Schaffner & Marx, Ballin, Brax, and others – are priced according to the brand and garment. During your consultation, our clothiers will work with you to find the best options for your budget and goals. Contact us at 605-341-1200 for more information.
Is a deposit required?
For custom suit and shirt commissions at Seeley, our team will walk you through all payment details during your consultation. We believe in a transparent, pressure-free process, and our clothiers will clearly explain what’s involved before any work begins.
