Alton Lane

 Had the extremely fortunate opportunity to sit down at a dinner with a few others and Colin Hunter, one of the co-founders of Alton Lane.

The basic idea is to make the shopping experience better for the guy while catering specifically to each man's need through custom made fabric and cuts. Each session is through private booking and their showroom's have a bit of a man cave meets CEO office vibe to them.

Just my own personal thoughts: Colin Hunter is a really cool guy with the perfect balance of being a professional and a laid back dude. He has a great smile, is willing to talk to everyone about anything, really listens and provides excellent feedback. He tells good stories and is full of ideas, even now he is churning out ideas for other start-ups. If you are male, you should really consider shopping there for a well tailored customized suit for a solid price. Their showrooms have flatscreen TVs, leather couches, and a nice bar. Also their employees probably kickass because Colin is all about assembling an all-star team.
