Jack Lindley opened Lindley Clothing in Wahoo, NE in 1935, and for 84 years the Lindley name has been synonymous with men’s fine clothing in the Omaha area.
Today, John Lindley, Jack’s grandson, runs the business. While styles have changed over the last 8 decades, Lindley’s commitment to excellent customer service has remained the same.
“Service is our top priority, and we do it very well,” says John. “We know our clients by name, and we know what they like, so it is easy to what they are looking for – whether that is a suit, shirt, pants or shoes.”
John credits many dedicated employees for contributing to the company’s success, and for helping the company build trust with clients. A big part of their service is custom tailoring, which can be expensive and difficult to find on your own. Lindley clients know they can get a wardrobe piece that match their style, perfectly tailored to fit – and without a long wait.
The business has evolved over the years in order to meet the needs of customers. Styles have changed over the years, and today business suits are the main driver to get customers in the door. John is encouraged more and more young professionals have become clients, and he appreciates that young people today recognize the importance of dressing well in the business world.
While the Lindley has become popular because of suite, nearly 50% of business at the store is sportswear. Customers are often surprised when they visit the store and learn they can be dressed from head to toe, including shoes!
To celebrate 84 years of service, Lindley invites you to shop our anniversary sale now through Oct. 18th.
