A Letter From Bob McClellan

March 18, 2020 By Bob McClellan

Dear Friends,

Like many concerned businesses, we are following the daily status of what is happening with the emergence of the COVID-19 virus here in the United States. I want to assure you that we take this matter seriously for your health and safety, as well as our own. It is our top concern as we navigate some uncharted waters for the next few weeks.

Our intent is to carry on with business as usual to the extent that we can safely. We will adjust as the circumstances warrant as we will always consider what is best for our people and for you.

Amidst the uncertainly, we have a responsibility to control what we can control. M. S. McClellan is taking extra steps to maintain a safe environment for our team and our clients. We are making concerted efforts to sanitize contact areas around the store as well as having bottles of hand sanitizer conveniently placed for your use.

Our schedule of events for Spring 2020 is in flux. New positions from the CDC against gatherings of 50 or more people is a serious consideration for the coming weeks. Currently, we are postponing our Peter Millar event on March 28th to sometime in May. And we may have further changes to our event schedule. Should there be any developments with our activities, we will let you know in plenty of time through email and social media.

For added convenience and safety, I would like to remind you that home and office delivery (via mail or in-person) is always an option with our company as well as curbside pick up service. We are happy to accommodate your needs via text, email, or phone. And as always, you may request a private appointment with your chosen associate after hours with no crowds.

Thank you for continuing to be a loyal M. S. McClellan client during a tough time. I thank you for your trust, and I feel confident that this, too, will pass. If we do not see you soon, we look forward to when we do.

Warm Regards,

Bob McClellan

Spring is about to go full bloom and you don’t want to miss it!

One of the reasons we love this season so much is the colors and the textures. It signals warmer and longer days are upon us along with a more casual attitude. But as this outfit from Julian shows, casual doesn’t mean sloppy. For your upcoming gatherings this Spring let a soft coat and a pocket square lead the way!
