Lee’s Tailors

Quick alterations and nice work! Mr. Lee has been in business for a long time and he is proud of that fact. I do think the alterations are a bit pricey, but if it is a garment you really want fixed the right way, it is worth it for the money. I have taken a pair of pants and two dresses to Mr. Lee and both were fixed according to plan!

3.5 stars for «the best tailor in the world.»
Yes, I paid a lot of money to get two pairs of pants taken in and hemmed by Mr. Lee. He spent a fair amount of time telling me how he was «the best tailor in the world», and he spent a fair amount of time measuring and marking my new jeans for alterations. But the proof is in end result, and this is where my experience at Lee’s went a little sideways. Read on fellow Unilocaler…
The two pair of jeans I got for xmas gifts were not cheap. I was told that they were $ 300 for both pairs — more than I would spend, but they were gifts. They needed to be taken in at the waist and hemmed. Lee’s is 5 stars here on Unilocal,so I go with high expectations.
I get measured up, and I get his personal spiel about how great he is. I come back about a week later for pickup. I take the jeans home and find the waist to be perfect but the length is way too short. When measured I had asked that the pants be left long, and they looked ok at the shop, but instead they were altered so that the bottoms fall well above the heel, not appropriate with even a no-​heeled shoe. Lee charged over $ 100 for the work and at this point the $ 300 jeans with $ 100+ in alterations are Goodwill material. I bring the jeans back to Lee.
He has no explanation but takes the pants for more work. A few days later Lee has added a half inch, and the jeans are perfect length. Unfortunately there is now a seam where he added the material. It’s not totally invisible, and certainly not what you would want.
My waist alterations were a little complicated, and I have to hand it to Mr. Lee that the waist was perfect. But the seemingly simple hemming was inexplicably way too short, and the subsequent fix is less than perfect. Sounds like I got the sizzle and not the steak. Lee’s may be good, but based on this job he’s got a ways to go to become the best tailor in the world.

I had a bridesmaids dress I needed altered. I waited until the week before (which I don’t recommend!) and he was able to turn it around in four days. The dress was perfect! Fit like a glove and the pressing was amazing and totally wrinkle free. I will definitely be back for future alterations.

I had to get my bridesmaid’s dress altered and I kind of waited until the last minute. He was able to get the dress done super fast and for an awesome price! Would definitely recommend him to any/​everyone!

Mr. Lee did a great job on tailoring three suit coats. I have an athletic build and he made the coats look like custom pieces.

Awesome, fixed my dress right there on the spot! Fair price! Would definitely go back, wish he would open up a store in the city near me!

This guy is amazing! My brother recommended him after getting a hole re-​weaved in his suit pants (that other tailors told him was irreparable.) Bought a dress on eBay that was WAY too small and Mr. Lee altered it beautifully. Completely exceeded any expectations I had and the dress is all around astonishing! His prices are fair and his work speaks for itself! I am a new life-​long customer!

Mr. Lee is light’s out. Over the years, he’s probably altered 10 – 15 suits, slacks, jeans, and even a dress jacket or two. I was blown away by his jeans alterations, and most recently the suede dinner jacket. Phenomenal. I tell everyone to go see him.

The customer service was excellent and the turnaround was quick. Mr. Lee was able to repair the mistakes made by the previous store that tried to alter my suit and it looks great. I appreciated the time he took and his close attention to detail during the fitting process. Other alteration stores I’ve been to always seem to be in a hurry. The price for the quality of work is reasonable. Would definitely recommend.

Best tailor in town. Brought in many items over the years and have been happy with them all. Would recommend to anyone.

Very professional and courteous customer service at fair prices. I’m very happy to finally find a skilled tailor nearby, after having my suits ruined at other places (e.g., Men’s Warehouse).
