    Still the same fast, high quality work we've come to expect. Don't waste time and money at the NEX; this place does it right.

    Ask the Community - 6th Fleet Alterations

    Do they do army uniforms?

    I couldn't say for certain but I personally know they do Marine and I saw plenty of Navy uniforms in there. I'd give them a call. They did quality in regulations work on my dress and service uniforms as well as name tapes made and sewn on same day!

    I usually take my uniforms/patches to Chief Macs, & when they turned down my civilian clothes that needed to be hemmed I went here.

    Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so without further explanation let's begin!. This is my second time visiting, I don't know why I didn't check in the last time, but I made sure I did this time. So I'm writing a review off of this visit and my last visit that was about 2-3 months ago!. Visit #1: I brought a pair of pants that were damaged because the original draw string started to tear and eventually it tore making it difficult to wear the pants without them falling down at my waist. I brought some string off of Amazon and I took them both to her( I apologize for not getting her name ) she is a great tailor and the sweetest lady you will meet in a business. Back to the review! I told her I wanted to replace the draw string and I gave her the new string. She asked me where I purchased the string from and I told her Amazon. She had my pants ready in a week!. I was happy to get them back, it was like I brought a new pair of pants!. Visit #2: I brought a pair of Levi's off their website, keep in mind I brought numerous pairs of pants and other stuff before off their website. But in particular all the pants / jeans were a great fit. So I assumed this pair would fit perfectly too. But I was wrong, for some reason the pants I recently ordered were weird fitting to me, kind of a wide straight fit, flare at the bottom and extremely long. There is no way I can wear a pair of pants that look different from the pants I normally wear. So yo make a long story short I took the pants back ti my favorite tailor and she had me try them on, stand on a platform and carefully asked me how much I wanted taken in and to how much to taper off, once I agreed to the areas I wanted tailored she pinned the areas. I changed back into my original pants I wore in the store, gave her the pants I want altered and she asked me if next week would be ok, I agreed!!!.. Let me tell you when I say her prices are jaw dropping cheap for the tailor work she puts in!. I will be returning and recommend you do if you're ever in a need of any type of tailor work or any alterations you may need!

    This is my go to for all alterations. Service is awesome and they do great work. I'd recommend them…read more- no job is too big or too small.

    I took three long sleeve shirts in, 2 to make into short sleeve and one just needed a button sewed…read moreon. She shortened the sleeves on ALL the shirts, so my $80 shirt that needed a button was cut to make it shirt sleeve. She was in a hurry and paid no attention to her written instructions on the receipt. So I have a ruined shirt and she did not want to offer any compensation saying she could not afford it. Eventually I got her to write a check for $20. Do not trust this shop with anything you value.

    Long story short, save yourself a lot of frustration and go somewhere else. In summary: forgot…read moreabout my items, when I showed up rushed the job to where I had to get it redone elsewhere, incorrectly performed work on a second item twice, slow turn arounds. Detailed explanation below: I dropped off two items, a fabric briefcase that needed a patch sewn onto it and a jacket liner that needed a zipper replacement. There was another reviewer who took issue with pre-paying for services. I don't necessarily agree with that, as it is fairly normal for small businesses to require payment up front. This does, however, become an issue later on in this saga. Owner stated services should take two weeks. Two and a half weeks later, I return to the shop only to have the owner state she does not remember me (I presented her my receipt). Eventually she finds my items only to realize that she had completely forgotten about them and had not even started the work. Asks me to come back. This is the first indication I had that I should probably take my business elsewhere, but again I had pre-paid so this was not an easy option. Upon returning to the shop, she had completed my briefcase work, but again needed me to return for the jacket liner. It was obvious she had rushed the job just to get it done, and within a week the stiches started falling apart. She had rushed it to the point that there were significantly less sitches in the patch than were needed and I ended up having to take the briefcase elsewhere to have the work redone. In regards to the jacket liner, I returned a week later (now 3.5 weeks after initial drop-off) only to find that she had installed the incorrect zipper type. Being a jacket liner, it required a reversible zipper. She installed a traditional zipper which was both incorrect and made the jacket liner unusable as an actual jacket liner. I returned the liner to her at which point she stated "oh you want a reversible zipper? I will need to special order that. It will take one week to arrive and then two weeks to sew it on." I asked for a new receipt because I had a suspicion she would not remember me otherwise. Three weeks later (6.5 weeks after dropoff) I return for the jacket liner a third time. She, as predicted, did not remember me and told me I had already picked up my items even though I had handed her my reciept. She eventually found my jacket liner and once again the wrong type of zipper was installed. She then proceeded to argue with me despite me reminding her that she specifically said that she needed a week to order the correct reversible zipper. At that point, I just took my items and left. Save yourself the trouble. Go elsewhere. Norfolk Tailor at the MacArthur Center has worked out extremely well for me in the time since my debacle with Mina's Sewing Shop.
