About CJ Custom Clothiers
African American–owned company that has dressed players at both the NBA and NFL Drafts.
The Man Behind It All
Clarence "CJ" Jones
For over 30 years, Clarence "CJ" Jones has been the quiet force behind some of the most memorable looks in sports and entertainment. From NBA playoff press conferences to NFL Draft red carpets — if someone walked in looking untouchable, there's a good chance CJ built that suit.
Based in Memphis, Tennessee, CJ doesn't just make suits — he makes statements. Every garment is hand cut, every fitting is personal, and every delivery comes straight to your door.

Company Profile
One of the leading bespoke tailors headquartered in Memphis, TN
Founded in 1994 by bespoke tailor Clarence "CJ" Jones, CJ Custom Clothiers offers custom-made suits and shirts designed to the customer's exact specifications. The bespoke technique is a true collaboration between customer and tailor — the customer provides input in the making of their garment while it is customized by the capable hands of a Professional Clothier.
Whether your attire is for business or pleasure, CJ Custom Clothiers can help develop the unique style that will set you apart from the crowd. CJ is dedicated to delivering fine, fit-style suits while providing outstanding customer service.
Each suit and shirt is hand cut, giving the customer selections from some of the finest fabrics, patterns, and fits available. Because our mission is to cater to you, a Personal Professional Clothier will fit you at your convenience — in your home or office. Your garment is then hand delivered in approximately three weeks.
