Any reccomendations for a good tailor in Calgary? I bought some new high end suits and need some cuff adjustments and maybe a collar on one and of course pants hemmed.
First problem is I need em done by next week Tuesday. (July 17)
Anybody know of any reputable tailors that they trust? and work fast?

Yep the guy in Crowfoot worked great for this one. I've since had some work done in Creekside Alterations and Repairs. She does good work, but takes her time and have heard that she doesn't like to be rushed. So maybe don't take it to her for a rush job.Quote:

It doesn't need to be completed in a timely manner, but I really care about it being done well. I don't want a hack wrecking my expensive clothes.
If you can make it downtown to Bankers hall, World of Vici does a great job and tailors a large portion of the Flames players suits. The owner, Matt Eaton, is a great guy and easy to work with.

Edit: Also recommend grabbing a bamboo dress shirt or two, super comfortable, durable and just require hang to dry after a wash.
Any idea what they start at? They were at a golf tournament last year as a hole sponsor, seemed like a good groupQuote:

Sorry, I wear a suit once a year.Quote:
