Sammuel Beckenstein founded Beckenstein Men's Fabric Inc, in 1919 on the lower east side's historic Orchard Street. Beckenstein's company thrived during the depression when he provided his customers with custom made pants to match their suit jackets when their pants were too thread bare to wear. For this service the song "Sam You Made my Pants to Long" was dedicated in his honor. Before long Beckenstein's small company took flight and ultimately developed into one of the world's leading fabric companies.
Upon Samuel Beckenstein's death, ownership of the business was passed on to Irving Boyarsky, Samuel's son-in-law, who after a brief stint as a farmer during World War II, entered his wife's family business in the mid-1940's. Irving Boyarsky worked earnestly to nurture the retail custom-made garments operation. As a totally devoted family man and hard working dad, Irving's son Neal began to emulate him as a young boy, delighted to take on tasks at the shop after school, eager to lend a tedious helpful hand. Irving made one of the most progressive decisions in his life, when his son Neal agreed to work full time for his father, as long as he could have an active role in the company. Neal's dream of building a department store containing the very best luxury products, as he had just completed college, was paramount. Trusting his son's intensified ambitions ineffably, Irving let go of the primary reigns of the business, which proved to catapult the growth of Beckenstein Men's Fabric, Inc. ten fold.
