KC Tailor & Shoe Repair

They Moved next to the Korean restaurant DAWON. The tailor is QUICK, thorough and so friendly! I would recommend this place to anyone.

I got my a comb sewn into my veil and my shoe heels reduced here. They did a great job and most of all they are just the sweetest people. I drove 20 minutes to get here, there are so many tailors around me but this guy is just so sweet, i drive that far to go see him. Hope they stay that way.

Have been using this tailor for years and have always been pleased. They moved around to another part of the strip mail (now facing 15^th instead of Custer).

My family has been using KC Tailor for at least the last 10 years. Not only is Won warm and friendly to his customers, he does an outstanding job at a fair price, and you can expect him to come through on his commitments. He has expertly handled all manner of work for us, from rips, tears and patches to major work on oversized clothing. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

I have been going here for years. They do excellent work. The gentleman had me try on the clothes he was going to hem for me to make sure everything hung just right and looked good to my satisfaction. He asked how I would like the garments to look and gave me several options before starting. These people have always done quality work at a very good price. Fast dependable service every time. I highly recommend this trustworthy family owned local business.

30 minutes to close and they greet me at the door with a smile on their face. Good people! They were very accommodating to hem my pants at the last minute. I will definitely recommend them to friends.

I used to be a bigger guy and play football. Now I am a runner and have many quality dress shirts that fit like trash bags and look like a parachute in the back when I tuck them in.
I brought them in to KC and gave them one shirt to try and test and see if they could take in the sides as well as the arms to make the shirt fit and not like awkward. I needed at least 4 inches on each seam along the body and another 2 – 3 in the arms.
The shirt fits great and looks proportionate all over (the neck is a tad big but can’t tell unless you are wearing a tie). He basically turned a shirt I was going to give to goodwill, to a custom fitted shirt for $ 12! I am going to get the other 10 shirts and bring them all to be done like this.
Owner is super nice too.

Be sure to ask for pricing before you commit to have any alterations. I had a dress hemmed and it cost $ 65. From what I could tell, the hem is nicely done, but way over priced. My fault for not asking before hand, but I never imagined it would be more than $ 20 – 25.

A friend of mine was getting suits made for us overseas for his upcoming wedding and needed our measurements ASAP. I called KC Tailor at 8 PM at night to see if they were open and they agreed to meet me at their shop at 8:45 PM — even though they were closed! They took my measurements after-​hours and I’m very grateful for their wonderful customer service!

I used to bring all my alterations here but I will not be coming back. It looks like they might have hired some new help recently and I’ve noticed a decline in the quality of work. I’ve had issues with the last six pairs of jeans that I’ve dropped off to be hemmed. The first pair I dropped off pinned at the length I wanted. I picked them up and they were way too short — even with sandals. I chalked it up to confusion about where I pinned them and brought another pair in the next month. I let them mark the jeans this time and the same thing happened. It wasn’t even close — total highwaters! I decided to give them one last chance since they had done good work in the past. My most recent (and final) visit involved four pairs of identical jeans. I put each pair on and had the hemlines marked in the exact same spot. They each ended up being a very different length and one pair was *way* shorter than what was marked. The difference in length ranged from about one to three inches. Not happy about the wildly different lengths of my skinny jeans, I returned to the shop and showed the owner the problem. When I returned to pick them up (the ¾ that could be salvaged), he charged me to fix their mistake! He thought he was giving me a deal because he only charged half price. I could understand if I had asked for them to adjust due to differences that were barely noticeable. However, I think they should be able to hem four pairs of identical jeans within an inch of the correct length. Anymore than that and you have serious quality control issues.

I’ve been bringing pants to KC Tailor for 3 years now for waist alterations and/​or hemming — every single pair of pants I’ve had in that time have made a trip here for «fixing.» I’ve also had a few miscellaneous pieces altered here (swimsuit, strap adjustments, etc.) Won always greets me with a smile and makes sure the work gets done quickly (sometimes by next day without me asking for it). Quality or work is fantastic and pricing is very reasonable.

At first I liked this place. Then I started noticing that they don’t warn you of certain things that might happen as a result of what you are asking them to do. For example, I had several capris tapered in the leg, which they did a good job. However, it made the pockets stick out. When I returned and inquired, they simply said yes, this will happen. So then I had to have that fixed too. Another negative incident was that they say they open at 9:00, but no one was there until 9:20 one morning. I realize we all run late at times, but when you are on your way to work, 20 minutes makes a huge difference. The last straw for me was asking them to work on two blouses that have several rows of elastic at the waist … I was told they couldn’t fix them. I think I’ll find another place.

Looking through the closet, I find a couple old pairs of jeans that had barely been worn since I bought them several years ago. These things happen when you lose weight.
The people here are friendly and helpful, and the craftsmanship is outstanding. Just as another review here noted you really have to look to see where they made the alterations. Definitely worth looking up especially if you have designer or otherwise expensive jeans — $ 15 per pair and you’re good to go.

I am going on my first vacation in two+ years next week. I have recently lost a lot of weight (like 4-​sizes worth) and the only bathing suit I own that fits was a halter top. I have recently come to the realization that I will never be able to wear halters again due to my brain surgery/​scar on my neck.
Well, since finding a bathing suit in November would be all but impossible, especially when you avoid Malls like the plague… I decided to see if I could get the halter one fixed… to where the straps crossed in the back and secured around the waist instead of around my neck.
KC Tailors at 15^th and Custer in Plano … fixed my bathing suit top in less than 24 hours and $ 8.66 is a LOT better than paying for an entirely new bathing suit.
