The Clothier in September will celebrate 35 years in business.

Francis Ciccarelli, his wife, Karen, and their son, Matthew, have remained in the same location at 138 W. Fourth St. in downtown Williamsport, expanding overall three times, to now give The Clothier over 17,000 square feet of store space.

Francis, Karen and Matt are at the store daily offering personalized customer service on anything needed from head to toe.

“Selection, service, quality and price,” Francis said.

Suits, slacks, sportwear, beachwear, summerwear, shoes, sandals, ties, bow ties, all-leather belts, and endless racks of dresswear for the office are available.

“It’s all come back,”Francis said.

“We’re seeing weddings, proms, parties, and travel,” he said. “People are flying and traveling to places again,” he said.

Summer has arrived and there is no limit to the size, color, texture and kind of summer wear available in the store.

The store carries golf wearing, including shirts, vests and slacks — all of it ultraviolet protective — for those warm summer days on the links.

The store has a never-ending supply of beach wear, including Lobster-decorated swim trunks and sports shirts.

For the office or an upscale party, less formal clothes are available, as is foot wear, such as sandals, loafers and boat shoes.

“We just began to carry Johnnie O “Hangin’ Out brand sports shirts,” Karen said.

For the head protection, light colored and a variety of colored straw hats are available.

“Keeps the sun off,” Francis said, walking on the plush interior carpet that covers the floor space.

For the perfect summer scent, the store carries a variety of spray on colognes such as Royal Lime and Mandarin from Bermuda — along with other bottles with aromas providing an all-day-long freshness. The Clothier’s clientele come from all over. Customers have addresses in New York, Ohio, New Jersey and California and many of the states, Francis said.

With the huge selection, variety of sizes and personal help, the customer can buy a full season of attire in one shopping visit.

Francis offers quick turn around for tailoring and he guarantees the fit.

The Clothier also ships merchandise out daily, including phone orders or large tailoring purchases.
