Customer Care

Personalized Customer Service

Quality merchandise and excellent customer service are the hallmarks of Carlton for Men. The five men on the sales staff provide personalized service. Each salesman maintains a profile book on all regular customers, showing their sizes and preferred styles. Travis Walker and Robert Slankard have each been with the store for over seven years; they and the other salesmen have developed a real rapport with their customers.
