Gilbert My Tailor

Gilbert is a great tailor. So far I’ve gone to him 3 times.
The first time it was to hem 2 pairs of jeans. This is a very basic alteration, but there was a slight twist in that the bottom of the jeans had fraying. Gilbert was able to retain the original frayed style to a pretty good degree.
Next up, I took 3 shirts to be taken in. The first time went to pick them up, the fit was good, but not perfect like I would expect from a tailored item. Gilbert made a few modifications (for no extra charge, of course, as is standard practice for tailors) and when I went to pick up the shirts the second time, they were the best-​fitting shirts I had ever worn! Perfection!
It seems as Gilbert gets to know you, he gets better acquainted with your preferences as far as fit. The third time I went to him was to have a jacket taken in. This one he knocked out of the park, no further modifications needed!

Gilbert is a fantastic tailor! I bring all my alterations to him and he always does a great job. He’s friendly and hardworking. You just have to be a very patient with the turnaround time.

Gilbert is a complete genius with jeans. I haven’t taken any other types of clothing to him, but he is able to keep the original hemlines on jeans, which is great when they have detailing or if you just want them to look as good as possible. He’s pricey, but definitely worth it. I also saw dresses and pants that he was working on and they all looked great too.
Don’t be confused by the location– it’s a second floor shop that shares an entrance with a tanning salon.
As an added bonus, there are free fun-​sized chocolate bars in a jar.
