WELCOME TO HARPERS!
My grandfather, Joe Cohen, opened Young Mens Shop in 1926 - the same year that Jack Harper opened his shop on College Avenue. The two shared great taste, beautifully merchandised stores, and a belief in excellent customer service. Joe and my grandmother, Martha, were active in the business when I was growing up, and I got to work with my parents, Joel and Susan, for over 17 years. They were all my mentors. And the most important thing I learned was: It's all about people first.
As the owners of Harpers, my wife, Lisa, and I promise to always bring our customers the finest fashion from around the world with the highest level of service possible. We are fortunate to have the support of our staff - each one cares deeply about their role in making our customers happy.
We're excited to welcome you - we have a lot going on under one roof! We offer tailored clothing, elevated sportswear, and classic footwear for men. We can help you create custom clothing; we provide tuxedo rentals for special occasions; and our suit package is a longtime favorite for Penn State graduations and career fairs. Our Women's Boutique features hand-selected styles for work, the weekend, and nights out on the town. We have an in-house tailor shop for alterations, and Harper's Varsity Club (complete with leather sofa and foosball table) offers unique Penn State apparel and accessories you won't find anywhere else.
We are grateful for each and every opportunity to connect with you and help you look your best. THANK YOU for choosing Harpers!
