    Convenient location. Nice and helpful staff. Offering same-day turnaround services. I was pleased with the items I had altered. No complaints. I will use Lee's Tailors again. They do get busy no matter the time of day. I experienced a rush during my drop-offs and pickups. Great value for the cost of alterations.

    Absolutely Amazing Experience at Lee's Tailor Shop! I want to share the incredible service I received here. My daughter's prom dress was ordered online, but when it arrived, it was the wrong size. I panicked and started calling tailors, but everyone was fully booked--except this shop, which was three hours away. They guaranteed they could fix it. Without hesitation, I threw the dress in the car, told my very upset prom queen to get in, and said, "It's going to be okay." When we arrived, we were seen immediately. The staff was warm, helpful, and truly family-oriented. We left to grab something to eat while they worked on the dress, and when we came back--we were amazed. My daughter tried on the dress... and it was PERFECT! I was nervous, but the result exceeded all expectations. The owner and the entire team were amazing. They even offered us water for the long drive back to Richmond, VA, and made sure we felt welcomed and taken care of. I highly recommend Lee's Tailor Shop--they saved prom night and turned a stressful situation into a beautiful memory. Thank you so much! the Prom was in May 2025!!!

    Perfect now

    I Polo Jacket still in good shape but the arms were long and the back was short. I had the arms shortened and new plastic bands in the cuff area. It is actually L/XL and they fixed the proportions perfectly. I will use Lee tailors again I really like the service.

Because she has experience even in New York fashion, she makes suggestions on the pleats or darts or any other requests I have, and she has even worked in the design industry in New York. She really is the best I've been to for all things fabric, and she does it amazingly with the lowest prices. Now, on the prices, she really does have the lowest prices, hemming for $12 instead of $20, for example. But, I will say this building looks rough, but how could she move with these prices? Don't worry about cleanliness, it smells fresh, even with the vape/tobacco store next door, my clothes are always clean when I get them. Try her with your seamstress needs, you'll be thrilled!

The wonderful lady who is the owner fitted them and resized them to tailor them perfect and saved those dresses for me so I didn't have to give them away or part with them. She was wonderful. It took her a couple of fittings to get them right, but that was ok. I was very pleased with her work and just so thankful to her that she saved me from having to part with some special dresses or to have to sell them or give them away and that I paid a lot for and were special to me. I highly recommend her for tailoring of your clothes, so save them and take them to her!

The process was custom to the extent you can change the color of the buttons but when it comes to the actual fit of the tux (the most important part) it felt like there were templates that they stuck to and anything outside of that to make the tux actually look tailored to the person was too much to ask.

    Tldr; highly recommend for anyone looking to buy a well-fitting, quality suit / tux at any price…read morepoint. Beautiful showroom with phenomenal customer service. The business model is similar to Indochino, but the Alton Lane experience is far superior. Caroline is the main point of contact and knows their sizing and products like the back of her hand - she is knowledgeable but not pushy. Since she's the main point of contact, you won't get passed around, and she takes full ownership of making sure your suit comes out perfectly. Lots of nice customization available even for the lower price points, and Caroline is a master at getting a perfect fit even for the cheaper standard sizing. Appointments are a must, but easy to schedule. The long version with more details: Buying Experience - While AL offers a great online ordering experience, the experience of going in person to the showroom in Raleigh (Cameron Village) is well worth it. You can browse the store, but if you're looking to make a purchase, highly recommend making an appointment ahead of time via their website. Appointments are an hour, and Caroline will walk you through the process, take measurements, and ultimately help place your order. She has fabric swatches available, which is important because they can look quite different than online. She's also fantastic at knowing their sizing and measurements, and will know exactly how to order to ensure a perfect fit (which may not always be what the online size chart suggests). She provides helpful recommendations for all the customization without being overbearing, and we appreciated that she was engaged and helpful even though we were looking to purchase one of their cheaper suits. Suit came in within about 2 weeks - you schedule a 30 minute fitting appointment to ensure you like everything or if you might need tailoring. We needed some minor tailoring, which was turned around promptly. Price - we weren't looking to spend a ton of money, but wanted to get a quality, well-fitting suit. AL offers very high end fully custom options (think $1k+), but they also have a number of "standard" options for reasonable price points ($399+). The main differences seemed to be that the fully custom is truly cut-to-size (they make a pattern specifically for your body) and will have larger selection of fabric styles. The "standard" options are your normal size availability and have less fabric selections, but we still found them to be high quality, and Caroline is so great at what she does that the fit of the standard styles is still great (and she kindly comp'd any tailoring). You can browse online to get a sense of pricing, but I still recommend ordering in person. There are also frequently promo codes (ex. 20% off for first time purchases) that can be used in store and can add up to a sizeable discount. Jos A. Bank is across the street, so we stopped in there for price comparison. Their off-the-rack suits were a bit cheaper, but generally require quite a bit of tailoring (additional charge). They offer a custom line of suits, most of which were more expensive than AL, and every custom option was a separate charge rather than being included (ex. $25 for lining, etc.). Overall, we felt like AL was a much better bang for the buck.
