Tailor Made

I had two suits tailored here last year.
The tailoring came back ok, but it took forever.
The biggest gripe?
It was FOUR HUNDRED dollars to have my two Calvin Klein suits fitted. This is not including pants. I almost feel like the price came out of thin air, and base it on the kind of suit you have.
I came in with a living social coupon, and they seemed to inflate the price to account for this.
I could have purchased a new suit and had it fitted for the same cost that Tailor Made charged me.
I was taken because they had my items and took the money upfront.
I was desperate and this place was near my house. I would stay away from here as there are a TON of places that need the business, and wont take your entire mortgage payment in order to pay.

No words can explain the amazing service that I received from tailor made!!!
First the owner was extremely nice and personable, after going to about three different tailors who all were rude and didn’t even take a look at my dress before saying no– he took the time to look at my dress and evaluate what he could to fix it.
I was in Buffalo, NY for the weekend and needed the dress done by Monday before I left to go to California. Not only was he able to complete my order on time he also stayed late so I could pick it up and prevent my boyfriend from having to ship it to me.
The dress was completed to perfection. It fit me like a glove and I received so many compliments. Thank you so much– This is definitely my tailor of choice when I’m in the buffalo area!!!

I would never go there again or recommend this place. They lost my order, they never answer the phone, do not return your calls and are never open when it clearly states they’re open.

Tailor Made is amazing. My first experience I brought in a high waisted swimsuit bottom, without even trying on, it was altered to fit like a glove. They also remade my mothers wedding gown into a reception dress for me which came out amazing! Boutique quality design and tailoring at reasonable prices. I will never go anywhere else!

I took my (very casual) chiffon wedding dress her in August 2014 for some alterations. The alterations were not done correctly at all, and there was a VERY large snag in the front of the dress.
Instead of apologizing he got upset that I was not going to pay him for his «work». He said he had still done the work and should be paid for it. Ummm, excuse me? You ruined my wedding dress! In my opinion, you should be paying ME for the cost of the dress since I had to go and buy a new one, as well as refund the $ 20 deposit I gave you for you to do the alterations.
All in all, a very disheartening experience. Take your dresses somewhere else!

Took my pants to get altered. He talked me into getting pants dry cleaned as well. When I went to pick up the pants he couldn’t find them. I can’t they lost my pants. Now I have a suit with no pants and a job interview the next day. He gave me any ugly suit that barely fit as a gesture of apology. I looked ridiculous and needless to say I didnt get the job. I recommend the lady at wesselmans cleaners

There’s a noticeable difference between someone who tailors clothes and a true tailor. A true tailor pays close attention to detail, has pride in their work, and provides excellent customer service.
If you have awareness regarding the difference between an «off the rack» fit and a well-​tailored garment, you will appreciate a place like Tailor Made. If you don’t then maybe you should stay with your local dry cleaners that has some part-​time worker take your measurements. Even for the simplest of jobs to merely hem slacks or shorten sleeves… it’s just not worth going to just anybody because in the past I’ve «given in» out of convenience and have had to have the work re-​done. Never again.
As for me, there are easily a dozen or more shops that offer alterations within 5 miles of my home… and I’ll continue to drive double that distance to have Tailor Made fit me as a true tailor would.

Went here recently for the first time. I had to have a shirt tailored for a wedding I’m in this weekend. I had the sleeves shortened a bit, and the back taken in, along my torso.
He did a wonderful job. He was very friendly, accommodating, and prompt.
I will go back and I will recommend this place to friends.

I recently returned to Tailor Made after a number of months. I did not have any need for alterations since my last visit. I recently, however, purchased some sport jackets online and, as always, needed the sleeves shortened. The owner not only remembered me and my name, but also again made helpful suggestions to get my jackets to be more «tailored.» This is truly a wonderful neighborhood shop.

I needed to have a suit tailored in 3 days time, in order to prepare for an interview that I wanted to look my absolute best. So quickly looked to Unilocal to point me in the direction of local tailors with good reviews. This is where I found Tailor Made. which had many positive reviews, all of which outlined detailed experiences of customer satisfaction.
Yusef, welcomed me to stop in for a fitting, staying 30 min+ after closing time to make sure everything was accounted for. He promised the service to be complete in time for my interview, assuring me that it would not be a poor, rushed job.
When I picked up the suit, I was amazed at the quality of the stitching and «after-​effect» of the service. The suit looks perfect when I wear it and it is difficult see it was altered –even the new threading used for relocating my pant zipper matched the original color.
Overall, I am extremely pleased and will be sure to return with more garments in need of alterations.
To be noted: I picked up the suit on Sunday, a day they are usually closed. Yusef was very accommodating in this regard, making sure the service was done on time.

About a month ago, I made a list of local tailors to call about prices and Tailor Made was the first and last call I had to make. I only dealt with one guy on the phone and at the store and I believe his name was Yusef (I apologize if I’m wrong!) He was very enthusiastic, especially on the phone! Friendly, patient (I had about 10 pairs of jeans I had to try on in store to get hemmed) and professional. I was a bit nervous going from never having had anything tailored before to dropping off 10 – 12 pairs of women’s premium denim (Hudson, 7FAM, Joe’s, J Brand, etc.) but I am more than glad I did! Yusef was very good. I couldn’t tell which ones I should keep longer to wear with heels and which ones shorter for flats but he was able to tell right away what would work once I tried them on. He kept the original hem on all of them so it’s hard (read: impossible) to tell that they were hemmed. He even used thread that matched the rinses of each jean to keep the hem in place (very small stitches). His work is incredible, my jeans are not only wearable now, but fit me perfectly! I’m excited to buy more jeans so this magic pant man can fix them again. (Also it took him less than a week to do all of them!)

Great job tailoring a suit that needed some alterations. Service is terrific.

Rating: 4.5÷5!
Went here to get my suit tailored before an interview. I went here two days before I needed it and he was very accommodating. I didn’t realize how badly my suit fit until I got it back from them. Turns out the suit needed extensive work. The suit overall needed to be taken in two sizes, the pants needed to be taken in at the waist and the thighs, the sleeves also needed to be lengthened (which was a chore because there were buttons at the wrists). As soon as I tried the suit on, I was like wow, it looks like a custom made suit.
Pros: The tailor (I didn’t catch his name) is super professional, listens to what you want, offers suggestions but if you decline a service he is not pushy, does excellent work. I agree with other reviewers that you can tell he takes pride in his work!
Cons: I had the pants of the suit pressed as well and one leg had two creases. Which happens when the original one wasn’t steamed enough to be «released». This only happened the one time so really minor.
Overall: I would recommend this place time and time again for tailoring. I will always bring my tailoring here now. I won’t bring dry cleaning here only but only because its a bit far from my house, but TOTALLY WORTH THE TRIP FOR TAILORING!

I have been going to Tailor Made for over two year now for all of my alterations and dry cleaning. Their tailor has done an excellent job on all of my alterations. The best thing about going here is that they are very accommodating and flexible. I am able to bring in an alteration or dry cleaning after 5 or on a weekend if need be. I recommend Tailor Made to anyone, male or female to you bring in their clothing for alterations.

Great customer service & my pants were hemmed PERFECTLY!

the man had some new denim that needed proper hemming (a skill i have yet to master), and decided to give Tailor Made a call based upon reviews here.
after a quick phone call to be sure an appointment was not necessary, we were warmly told we could stop by that afternoon to have them fitted and pinned. upon arrival, we found the proprietor to be very friendly and knowledgeable, having discovered he trained in his homeland of Italy. he pinned both pairs of denim for my daddy-​o in no time at all, and even inquired as to whether we desired a proper denim hem on the cuff, which of course we did (hence, we were seeking the skills of a tailor).
both pairs of denim were ready in less than a week, and were hemmed properly. we are both extremely satisfied with the quality and appearance of the work, and will most certainly return with other items needing tailoring. the price point here is competitive with most tailors, perhaps on the higher end, but please know you are paying for the work of an extremely well-​trained and skilled master tailor.

A good tailor that you can call your own is something every adult male should have… a right of passage, if you will. That said, this is mine.
I wear suits a lot, but have a thin build that most companies don’t design for. Habib at Tailor Made knows how to correct that. I prefer to adhere to the British cut of suit, and Habib knows how to implement that. I never really have to explain much of anything to him, he just goes right to work, and the end result is exactly what I want… it’s not like getting directed to the department store in-​house 50-​something tailor who’s wearing an oversized, out-​of-​style brass button blue blazer and no matter how much you tell the guy you want your suit to reflect «a tailored hourglass shape,» it comes back looking like an oversized sack. I have several bespoken suits, one done by hand by Sam of the famous Sam’s Tailor in Hong Kong. Since I’ve started coming here, I’ve switched back to buying medium-​to-​good quality suits off the rack and having Habib tailor them… I get more compliments on the look and fit of these than the bespoken ones.
The reason I like Habib so much is his ability to do just about anything. He can alter just about any part of any piece of clothing… including slimming suit sleeves, which is huge for me. The service I actually use him the most for is to take a regular dress shirt, and for about $ 20 or so, slim the sides and arms so it fits like a proper slim fit.
The main reason I wrote this review though, and the reason I keep coming back to Habib, other than the quality, is the fact that just by observing him working, it’s incredibly obvious that he takes a lot of pride in his work. He always asks me how my dad «The Professor» is doing and is just an all-​around nice guy. Go patronize his shop.
