Sarar

I stopped in while doing some other shopping in Tysons II location. Upon first glance Sarar had some nice looking things. Once I dug a little deeper I sort of changed my mind as I saw many of their well priced items, were not fully canvased suits. This means you get the jacket without the inner lining (which protects from sweat, fabric rub and other wear and tear)
Pros:
— Stylish and handsomely patterned coats and suits. Picking up a new Sport coat with the understanding it won’t have a long use ahead of it is not a bad idea.
— Wide array of styles and patterns esp for slim fit.
— High quality fabric options. They have the bare non canvased options as well as the fully canvased options.
Cons:
–The «high» end fabrics which are marketed as having the same supplier as finer European brand suits, were more or less bare bones. Meaning they were not full canvas suits (No Inner Lining. just outer shell) Good if you’re on a budget, but these cuts wear thin very fast without an inner shell/​core to them.
–The salesman seemed a little pushy, attempting to get me into something so he could add on another at a discount price. less about my taste or looking good, and more about just getting me into something.
— The suits which were full canvas were just about the same price as they designer brand that they claimed to be equal to or better than.
— Sarar does not provide tailoring.

I stopped in over the weekend for the first time looking for a blue oxford cloth button down shirt. At retail price, I would probably pass on the shirt, but the 2 for 1 deal makes it a bit more reasonable. I ended up buying 2 shirts just to test the waters for about $ 120. Now that I’ve owned them, I can say I probably won’t buy shirts from them again.
You can get much better shirts elsewhere for similar price. The collar stays are thin plastic and it felt like there was no shirt collar lining. Thread density count at the button holes was just average. There is good bit of puckering at the armhole and along the sleeves. I can still wear it at work because I’m always in a suit so its not a complete loss and the shirt fits so that’s good.
The staff was friendly and helped me find what I needed. I tried on suits ranging from their entry to their top of the line full canvas constructed. The 2 for 1 deal on the suit is pretty good but I would avoid any of the poly-​blend suits; they were very stiff and you could feel the fabric and tell it was very low quality. The higher end suits are much better.
Suits are more fashion forward than say a Jos A. Bank (JAB) but less than Suit Supply (SS) or Mens Warehouse (MW) which I think it are its closest competitor.
If your looking for a half-​canvas or full-​canvas suit with quality wool fabrics at a decent price, then I would check them out. They have some pretty nice colors in their suits that I don’t see elsewhere.

I walked in on a Tuesday around 3:45 and was helped by the sales associate Abdella. I noticed immediately the amount of slim flit suits. They all were detailed and designed with quality. I was trying to get a suit for my father so I will definitely be back to get their new black fitted suit. If you go make sure you ask for Abdella he will help you to get the best deal and the best suit. Overall very satisfied with the experience!

Love this store. The suits are awesome. Very high end at not so high end price. I like the fabric as well. They suits fit very well. It is hard for me to find any European style suits in USA. Sarar has been my choice for the past several years.

Quality products. Nice friendly staff. They even offered me advice on other stores in the mall when I couldn’t find what I was looking for in their shop.

Been shopping here for the past year now and have gotten to know the gentleman in the store fairly well. They have dressed me for several events and vacations with some really nice pieces. One of my favorite pair of shoes came from this store. They’ve relocated the store from the ground level to the top level of the mall. I prefer the bottom level location. Anyway ask for Abrahim and he’ll take care of you.

Look like a million dollars without spending a million dollars to do it.
Simply put, this is the best looking and most fashionable clothes I’ve been able to find anywhere that isn’t just absurdly expensive. You’ll spend a bit more than most mid-​range priced clothes but the difference will be noticeable. Many of the styles here are trending towards a more modern cut and look while still fitting into classic designs. I honestly think this is one of the best kept secrets as far as brands. Similar clothes like this would cost 3−4x in higher end stores or different brand names.
The only thing about this place I don’t like is the return policy (or almost non existent one). You can only return something for store credit, and even with that it has to be within 14 days. The first time I bought something here and then read the policy I was really worried and scared that I made a couple hundred dollar mistake. Thankfully I can say I haven’t had any issues with anything I’ve bought here and ive shopped here more than a year. Clothes seem to be very well made.
I’ve gotten nice blazers, a tux, peacoat, and some nice french cuff shirts from here. They have high quality cottons and also great wools with a nice sheen. I recommend the ‘bionic’ blazers which have a stain repellant coating and sheen. It seems to have big sales all the time of about 40−50%. If things arent on sale i would probably wait until they are again.

I agree with the previous review on the bad customer service here. The no refund policy is clearly stated on a small sign at the register but it’s pretty ludicrous for unopened, unworn items. No price adjustments either.
The biggest thing that got me frustrated was that when buying a suit there they said the tailoring of the pants would be free. All their suits are unfinished so this would make sense. The use the tailor on the third floor and when I went to pick up the suit they asked me to pay. I went back down to Sarar to clarify the issue and a different sales associate than the one I bought my suit from said that tailoring was only for full-​priced items. A few days later I talked to the original associate I dealt with (who also happens to be the manager) and he said that they didn’t offer any free tailoring and that none of his sales associates would ever say that. And he said that he never told me originally that the pants tailoring was free.
I can understand if there was a miscommunication once but twice and with two different associates AND the tailor? I think not. He was very strongly implying (although not accusing to be fair) that I was wrong on both counts (which included my wife as well since she was with me on the return visit and heard the same story from the sales associate).
The solution they offered was to have the tailor undo the hemming which is obviously fine for them but that just means that 1) I wasted several weeks waiting and hours talking to various associates and the tailor to figure out the problem and 2) the tailor would be out the time and labor for the hemming over a $ 20 dispute which for me is more about principle than a measly $ 20.
That said, the suit and coat I bought fit me perfectly and I love both for the price I paid. It definitely isn’t high quality European but with the 55% off I got on them, they were a reasonable price for the style and quality. I’d never buy from them full-​price and after this experience I probably wouldn’t buy from them again (after using my store credit that is).
