This review is for the tailoring shop inside Battison's of South Windsor. Per their website, their…read moretailors are independent contractors and thus are technically separate from the laundromat itself, hence why this review is not that particular location's Yelp page. I recently purchased a formal dress from David's Bridal to wear for two upcoming weddings plus various other fancy events that may pop up in the future. The dress needed some serious work: the back needed to be taken in quite a bit, as did the sleeves around the shoulders. Alterations at David's Bridal are CRAZY expensive (a friend told me that's how they rope in most of their money), so there was no way I was getting it done there. This is the only place near me that offers tailoring that I know of, so I brought my dress here and just hoped beyond hope the alterations wouldn't cost a fortune; almost the entire top of the dress is lace. The tailor (I never got his name; I know, shameful!) had me put on the dress and put me in front of the mirror to see what needed work. He only put one bobby pin in the dress and only seemed to measure one side; it worried me, but he seemed to know what he was doing, so I mustered up enough trust to leave me dress in his hands (pun totally intended). Five days later, I went in to pick it up. The gentleman recognized me immediately, smiled, grabbed my dress, told me to wait, and disappeared into the back of the place. He returned five minutes later with my dress perfectly pressed. The alterations plus the press only cost me $25, far, far less than what David's Bridal would charge. Later on at home, I put on the dress, and WOW. The alterations were absolutely perfect. My dress-which used to hang on my shoulders and back-now fit like a glove. A family member then told me they had had work done by him years ago; he's been in the business forever and knows his stuff. That clearly showed. If you need tailoring that's not super expensive, stop by here if you can. You won't regret it.

When I buy a new pair of shoes, I like to have them stretched (a half size) and waxed and shined…read more Now, the last time I had this service performed, a cobbler charged me $35, and the shine was nothing to write home about. So I decided to check other options. Two friends of ours told me to go here when I told them of my conundrum. Felix cheerfully took a pair of new Florsheims, and in a day, they were sized, comfortable, and shined with a good measure of wax (good for touch-ups). He only charged $10. I tipped him $5 -- and I still saved $20 over the cost charged by the other guy. On my next visit, I gave him a pair of $700 Italian loafers for the same treatment, and also gave him a well-used pair of light loafers that had a gap in the sole. He offered to fix the old loafers, but showed me a hole that he said would probably re-emerge because they'd been stretched too much. It was with a pang that I threw them away. I handed him ten dollars and told him I'm glad he didn't waste his time, or my money. Oh, the expensive loafers came out really, really nicely. Next up are a pair of winter boots from Ralph Lauren that need some saddle soap before I put 'em away for next year. Go here (the door's always locked so you must ring the bell). Your feet will thank you!

I would recommend them to anyone and especially to those with special foot needs.

But still they were my friends favorite boots at the time and i was trying to do her a favor. There is a shit ton of shoes when you come in, I am guessing most people that drop off then never pick up. Makes you feel like he will never get to your order but my experience has been he is really quick. Decent price for the work he did $16 to save a $300 pair or boots, obviously not worth it if you have cheaper shoes which seems to be the way things are going today. Great with soles, leather etc, not sure how he is with canvas but we will find out that next. Cash only, not open on Mondays don't lose your ticket his filing/organizational system is not the best. One of the only places around you can get this kind of work done.
