Ever since Major Harry Elms opened The Marine Shop in 1962, Marines have been coming to us for the best service and the best uniforms.<\/p>\n<p>For decades, the only way to get measured for a uniform was to come into The Marine Shop to be seen by one of our word-class tailors for measurements and fitting, but with advent of the internet a new option was added, online ordering. We\u2019ve released a few videos to aid Marines all over the world with their measurements, but nothing is more accurate or satisfying than being professionally tailored in store.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='hr av-1aoy2yws-203d719838e5ec5b7ea1590b06f48c0a hr-default  avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_button '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-l8ei6nrp-3f583219252d68eaf7a1a42c4226b848-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_hr  avia-builder-el-last '><a href='https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLU4wysouQ4ouShGFZ85rUWN0WQKQV85WW' class='avia-button av-l8ei6nrp-3f583219252d68eaf7a1a42c4226b848 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-yes-left-icon avia-size-large avia-position-center avia-color-theme-color' target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-label=\"Watch The Marine Shop How-To Videos\"><span class='avia_button_icon avia_button_icon_left avia-iconfont avia-font-entypo-fontello' data-av_icon='\uf16a' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' ><\/span><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >Watch The Marine Shop How-To Videos<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4853it8-e1ef8f9926b26aa98a040c3de684c742\">\n.flex_column.av-4853it8-e1ef8f9926b26aa98a040c3de684c742{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-4853it8-e1ef8f9926b26aa98a040c3de684c742 av_one_third  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-l8eibx84-dae22f67c02034e63b0e033778368e92 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Coming to The Marine Shop is an experience.

get measured and a professional, accurate measurement can take upwards of thirty minutes or more. With that in mind, we have brought back appointment scheduling for the first time in many years. By using our booking platform, you can save time and cut the line and guarantee that a tailor will see you.<\/p>\n<p>We do currently have a 48-hour notice period, this way we can contact you if something were to happen that would interfere with our appointment period. We also have a few different types of appointments available, which help our staff prepare for your arrival.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alterations: If you already own your uniform and need to fit back into it, choose alterations. If your appointment doesn\u2019t fit into the other categories, odds are you need Alterations.<\/li>\n<li>Evening Dress: Oftentimes when a Captain is promoted to Major a Marine will need to be tailored a new uniform, their Evening (or Mess) Dress uniform.<\/li>\n<li>General Officer Promotion: When a Marine is promoted to General Officer, they require a full suite of updates to their uniforms.<\/li>\n<li>Commissioning: When a young person is commissioning into the Marine Corps they face the daunting task of buying all new uniforms with all of the accoutrements that come along with them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We strive to be there for every Marine we can, and we hope to see you in our store at some point along your Marine Corps journey.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-b7vvt6k-e23ce7f38c101f9463cb1b5c43ed978e\">\n.flex_column.av-b7vvt6k-e23ce7f38c101f9463cb1b5c43ed978e{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-b7vvt6k-e23ce7f38c101f9463cb1b5c43ed978e av_one_third  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_two_third  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-l8eixncv-4c586d193d048c86b0763a3290937e8f '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;The Marine Shop has 8 tailors, 2 of which are Master tailors with more than 30 yrs experience.
