Remon's Clothier is a high-end clothing store located at 290 21st Street North in the Massey Building. The shop opened in the 1970s and is owned by Remon Danforah.

In December 2008, Remon's was named in the indictment against Larry Langford, charging that Langford's bills to Remon's were paid by Bill Blount and Al LaPierre in exchange for bond swaps and other deals. During the October 2009 trial, Danforah was accused of double-billing Blount and LaPierre for clothes Langford allegedly had either already paid for or had never bought. Danforah denied those claims.

In September 2009 Remon's opened a second location in the Summit shopping center.
