Toronto clothing legend Saul Korman of Korry s Clothiers dead at 86
Toronto s iconic suit salesman, Saul Korman, has died at 86 years old.
He went by many names The Duke of the Danforth, the Gentleman of Greektown but was best known simply as the owner of Korry s Clothiers to Gentlemen.
Saul Korman has been known as the Danforth s best suit salesman since the 1950s.
The suit store, which Korman took over from his father and moved to Coxwell and Danforth in 1958, has been dressing men in Hugo Boss and Canali for decades.
A popular man about town, Korman drummed up business for his suit store the old way: through newspaper ads and local talk radio stations, making guest appearances with John Gilbert of CHUM FM.
