About Us

Morris Feldberg, a military master tailor from Poland, came to Canada in 1925. All he had with him were his skills and his work ethic. In 1927, he opened his very own tailoring business, in a tiny corner store on Holland Avenue. Morris tirelessly worked day and night, custom-making clothing for Kichessipi residents. He rented the small space for $38 a month and lived above the shop. Eventually employing six tailors, Morris passed on the legacy to his son Jack Feldberg shortly after the Second World War. 

When Jack’s son Sam took over in 1980, the shop too, was ready for a transformation. It became a specialty formalwear rental store, catering to the demand for short-term suit rentals, as Ottawa was moving away from the ultra-formal looks. 

Today, the third-generation family business is established in a 5,000 square foot facility in the heart of Hintonburg, on Wellington Street West. Run by Morris’s grandson Sam Feldberg with help from his son Joseph Feldberg, the same high regard for quality and hard work ethic prevail, almost 100 years later. Now, the shop is stocked with thousands of suits, the only independent formalwear store with all inventory on the premises in Ottawa. A few special tuxedos await their spot in the limelight. 

Morris Formalwear is proud of our long-standing legacy in the fine clothing business and we are here for your every event.

Testimonials

“Can not say enough good things about our experience with Morris Formal Wear. We needed seven suits for our wedding. They were professional, courteous and were able to make last minute alterations in the week leading up to the wedding. Sam and his team do an amazing job and I (the groom) have never had a suit fit so perfectly. Will definitely be using Morris Formal Wear for any and all future events.”

Testimonials

“Definitely the best formalwear store in Ottawa. I rented a suit for my senior prom the day before the event, and they were able to have it altered and ready the next day without any issues; most places require at least 48 hours’ notice. The staff is also really nice and entertaining haha I had a good time getting fitted. The lady is bilingual which is a plus for me—she’s the one who took the photos at the shop. I know this is a family owned business which is awesome—they own everything in the store which means that they can alter their garments as many times as they want.

Overall had a great experience and would recommend the shop to anyone looking for a place to rent/purchase any kind of male formalwear.

They didn’t pay me to write this, they’re just really awesome.”
