Peter’s Tailor Shop

Had to get a few items of clothing altered — had to go back twice to get it done and it still wasn’t done the way I wanted it. I went somewhere else and couldn’t be happier with that decision.

I’ve been coming here for years. I live further and tried others, big mistake. Shona (pronounced like China) she is amazing with her sewing machine. I have never had any item that I had to take back for more alterations. She charges may be a little bit more but in my opinion you get what you pay for. She is a Taylor and that is her only focus she’s not doing dry cleaning or other things for clothing which also probably makes her a better choice than others. She is also very friendly and welcome to look at anything you might need sewn. Case in point, she sewed hair ext clips to hair… She didn’t have to do this other alterations places nearby turned me down, but she did it, and well! Highly recommend. ps I hope Peter and his wife are well xo.

You get what you pay for. Can be pricey but she’s the best tailor me and my friends know of.
She’s tailored my APC’s and saved my selvedge and also tapered another pair of my jeans. I’ve also had multiple friends go to her for saving the selvedge on their APC’s and they’re all pleased with her work. Great place to go to.

Review for slacks.
The Korean lady who works here is great. Unfortunately, I have forgotten her name. There was a small language barrier, but that was not an issue for me. I brought a pair of slacks here that were too long for me. She charged $ 16 to shorten them and also offered to be done by the next day. They came out great. ⁵⁄₅ for quality, ⁵⁄₅ for schedule, and 4.5÷5 for cost. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for.

I had turned in a pair of slacks to be altered on the waist and hem. It took 2 weeks but I was in no rush but she said she was swamped with orders. Understandable and it seems she’s usually the only one working. She even did a chest measurement for me since the suit I bought was too big and it was pointless to get it altered. Overall, great experience.

Great quick alteration job on my N&F broken twill raw denim jeans. This place is a quick, no frills, get the job done tailor for quality work.
The lady offered to get my pants done in 1 Business day because I said I needed them for a business trip on the weekend. Talk about going above and beyond in service.
I think the pants came out to around ~$ 15, which is also pretty cheap. But her work was definitely worth every penny, will definitely come back if I need any other work done.

I went to peters in need of hemming my naked and famous selvedge raw denim. She got my length and gave me a time. For 18 dollars and under an hour of work she did an incredible job. I know who to trust with my clothes now!

The seamstress (korean lady) is skilled at her craft and went above and beyond for me.
Was quoted $ 12 w/​o original hems and $ 22 with. Dropped off the slacks on a Sat morning, a week goes by with no pickup notice from the shop, so I called in the afternoon and was told she has been extremely busy… but can finish the job for me today.
True to her word, I received the pickup call at 6PM (their closing time), but could not make it back in time. She asked how long it would take and stayed until 8:30PM for me!
Despite the initial lack of communication, I am satisfied with her work (photo below) and good-​nature. This is a 1 person tailor/​cobbler shop, and business is good! Have been looking for a reliable place since I moved back to Fremont and this is it!

I needed the suit jacket sleeve buttons sewed on, my trousers hemmed and the waist suppressed. I’ve never met Peter, but the shop was apparently sold to a nice Korean woman who was able to tailor my suit. She was very knowledgeable and honest. I didn’t detect any reluctance in her trying to assist me in getting the best final product. I was able to pick up my altered suit in less than a week with no complaints. The total came to be $ 75.
I had also brought in an ill-​fitting blazer, which at the time I believed could be altered, but she was sincere and steered me away from an irreparable mistake.

I will never go anywhere else. I showed up around 3pm and explained my situation. I told the very nice lady that I had just returned from Afghanistan and had Just received the news that my best friend who stayed had just been killed in action. I needed to get my Dress Blues ready in a hurry! I had grown a bit and I had to buy a new suit! The nice lady dropped everything and began to work on my suit. She stayed after hours to get all the patches and ribbons on also. She spent more than 5 hours on my suit, carefully making sure everything was perfect! She called me as soon as everything was done and perfect to come and pick it up. Suit fit great! She even gave me a hug and said she was sorry and that she supported our troops! On top of it all she just charged me $ 50!!! I can’t say enough about this place! This is the first review I have ever wrote and may be the last. But I will always return here and recommend it to all service members in the area. Thank you so much!

So, I had a wedding to go to.
But, I hadn’t bought a suit in ages.
So, I bought a suit.
But, it didn’t fit exactly right.
So, I searched Unilocal for a tailor in Fremont.
But, I needed the alterations done within a few days.
So, I found Peter’s Tailor Shop.
But… no but!
After the quick alterations, the coat was perfect. The pants’ waist was perfect. The pants were a little too long, so they took them back for a day and fixed them. And in the end, I looked good in that suit. What more could you ask for?

I came here to get my dresses and jeans tailored. The lady took me in right away. I needed to get my jeans tightened around my knees only bc they were way too big, making my bootcut look like straight leg. She said she couldn’t do it and I should wash my jeans every other day so the fabric stays tight. Now these are dark wash jeans and very pricey, I’m not about to do that. So we left that.
I wanted to turn a few A-​line dresses into Monroe style where they are fitted hips and below. She said I have nice legs and we figured the dress looked fine as is. That was nice and honest of her.
I was a bit disappointed about the jeans, but at least she was honest that she couldn’t do it without getting rid of the bootcut.

Excellent job making my suits and shirts fit like new! I’ll be taking more of my now oversized clothes there instead of buying a whole new wardrobe! I was also given some helpful advice on how suits should fit when I buy them.

Competitive, fair pricing & pointing out I don’t really need the alteration on my leather blazer-​super honest, not trying to take those extra bucks for pure profit.
I got 2 slacks hemmed & my blazer shortened (against professional advice, yes I’m a rebel!) for $ 60.
This tailor is legit.

Peter’s Tailoring Shop is a favorite old-​standby since the days of Senior Prom (10+ years ago). I remember because I had to have my dress hemmed. He did a great job and I always remembered him when I needed any add’l alterations. Last year or so I needed three pairs of pants hemmed in a jiffy, he was able to have them done the same day, in time for my flight early the next morning.
The only con — he’s a little pricey, $ 15 per pair, made my $ 20 Old Navy set now $ 35 dollar work pants. You get what you pay for, and he definitely does great work.

I got a suit tailored by Peter before a cruise recently. He did a great job, in a timely manner, and took pride in his work. The prices were very reasonable, too, for the quality you get. I will be back the next time I gain or lose weight.
