I used Outback Leather in 2016 for a repair. To this day I'm still very appreciative of their work…read moreand realized I never wrote a review so here I am. I have been using a very cool looking leather key fob ever since I got it as a souvenir in Italy back in 2002. It looks like a miniature whip (don't ask ;-)) and I love it because I can easily feel the fringe part in the bottomless pit of my purse. In fact, it's actually very hard to misplace my keys because of this distinctive fringe. Anyway, a couple years ago I noticed the leather piece that attaches the metal keyring to the leather handle of the whip was starting to tear. I went to a couple places to see if they could repair it and came up empty handed. Then, finally, it completely tore. I tried jerry-rigging it back together but it looked like crap, didn't hold together, it just didn't work. Oh, well, all good things come to an end, so I put my keys on a "normal" key fob. Ugh, that was when I started misplacing my keys. What a pain!!!! The other bad part was having my favorite key fob sitting useless in a drawer. I couldn't part with it but I also dislike keeping broken things. Double ugh. People write "Ron is amazing" or some other accolade. Believe it! I found Outback Leather on a Google search. Somewhere it said they could do any leather repair, big or small, no matter how weird. I had nothing to lose. As soon as I walked in I felt like I was in a time machine and had gone back to bygone days. Remember the days when people actually had things repaired and very little was thrown away? I do. There are tools of the trade everywhere... piles of scrap leather, old projects, new projects, relics of the horse racing days at Laurel Racetrack, big old wooden workbenches, industrial leather sewing machine. I can go on for days. It's like a working museum. I wish I could be a fly-on-the-wall because I LOVE watching people make and create stuff. So Ron looks at my key fob and says this is nothing. In less than 10 minutes he had it repaired! He could have done it quicker if he didn't talk on the phone then greet another client. Not only did he match the color of the torn piece of leather but he even matched the texture of it, too. Then there was the "entertainment". What a wonderful, knowledgeable businessman. He explained all the different steps he was doing, even telling me the different ways he could have done it. We even talked about running a small business (which I also do), growing up in PG county and how he got started in business. It's going to be a sad day when he retires. No one around here has his skill nor knowledge base. What a treasure he and his business is!!!

This is my 800th review and it goes to Dana's Tailoring. It's rather fitting (no pun intended) to…read moregive a 5 star review such a milestone spot. Recently, I lost weight. It wasn't long before my jeans became too loose in the waist to be worn any longer so...time to go shopping for new jeans. As I've been a fan of LL Bean, I headed to a store. Even though a few years ago, LL Bean screwed up the pockets in their women's jeans, I did like the way they fit me. Once I had the new jeans, I set out to find a tailor who could fix the pockets by making them deeper. Much to my surprise, many of the tailors in my area don't do that work. Finally, I emailed 2 tailors to ask if they did such work. Dana was the first one to respond. She told me to bring them to her and she would see what she could do. FWIW, the second tailor answered much later to say she did such work, too, but by then I had gone to Dana. When I brought the 2 pairs of jeans to Dana, I was sure to bring along an older pair of jeans that had good pockets so she could see how deep I wanted the pockets to be. She was glad I had brought the old ones along. Then I hit a roadblock---she asked if I had brought along fabric for the pockets! Given that I hadn't used a tailor since I was in my 20s and that was to hem a dress, I was clueless. So...off to Jo-Ann Fabrics to buy material. Researching the subject, I bought a yard of cotton/polyester blend. I washed the fabric, then brought it to Dana. She said my jeans would be ready in two weeks. While I had hoped for faster turnaround, I know Dana is busy. I picked up the finished jeans yesterday. Today, I wore a pair and was wowed by the work Dana had done. They were done in such a way that they appear to be seamless. Plus they are slightly deeper which I don't mind at all! When I buy jeans again, I'm taking them to Dana. I had leftover fabric from the pocket material so that's one step saved. Even though from start (buying the jeans) to finish (getting them back), it took a month, it was worth the wait! Dana is very skilled and it's clear that she does a lot of business. When I picked up the jeans, someone was walking out with her finished items. Inside, there was a woman wearing a gown and waiting for Dana to take measurements. I highly recommend going to Dana if you need new pockets or any other tailoring work as her work is very high quality!
