The man working was very professional and I was able to try on my pants in a little changing room so he could pin the correct length. The quality of the work done was great. The only reason I'm only giving 4 stars out of 5 is that I was told my pants would be finished two days later by 11am (I said I could pick them up in two days before noon, or I could get them the following week as there was no rush). I arrived to pick them up at 11:35am while on my way to work, and I ended up having to wait 5 minutes while he finished one of my pants in front of me. It wasn't a big deal, but if I I had come at 11am when he said they would be done then I would have waited 40 minutes or I would have had to come back to get my pants on another day. I would recommend this tailor, but I would suggest giving them more time to finish your items, even if they sound confident that they will have it done in a couple of days.

Sana is the lovely proprietress, and she greets everyone with a smile and can-do attitude. I have had multiple pairs of jeans hemmed here, and zippers replaced on items from skirts to my favourite wool winter jacket. Sana will put a rush on anything you need if necessary, though I have never needed anything quickly. She is capable and pleasant to deal with. Replacing a small zipper will run you around $8-10 and having some small alterations done will likely be around $10-$20. You can ask at the time if you're concerned about cost, though I have always found it to be very reasonable and much better than messing it up myself! You can also pay when you drop your items off or when you pick them up. There's a curtained off dressing room if you need to put on trousers before hemming or get advice on other alterations. I highly recommend this place as it's efficient and inexpensive!

"Eek!" is the right descriptor here. Kim had a big ol' meltdown on me…read more Mike and I have been taking our dry cleaning and alterations to Kim at Fred's Tailoring for quite awhile now. Her work has always been good and she's always been friendly if a bit difficult to understand (she's Korean). However, we had our first problem with her work today and because of the way she handled it we will definitely not be returning under any circumstances. I had brought her a pair of dress pants last week to be hemmed and taken in at the waist. When I tried them on she first brought them in too tight and I asked her to loosen her pins, which she did. She marked them with chalk and pinned them. However, when I tried them on after the alterations, they were way too tight. I very politely told her so. Rather than simply let them out a bit, she LOST IT. I mean I wonder if I seriously witnessed a breakdown. She became very, very upset and kept repeating that she pinned them where I told her to. She rephrased it various ways, but all she was really doing was blaming the customer. For all I know she altered them along the first line she had chalked on my pants, which I had told her was too tight. Then she kept asking me over and over "How many inches? How many inches?" Meaning how many inches did I want them let out. Her English was becoming unintelligible by this point. I told her I don't know; I don't know how many inches she took in! "Half inch, three-quarter inch, HOW MANY INCHES???" I was torn between lighting into her (I was royally pissed by now) and backing away from the crazy. I chose the latter and picked three-quarter inches. She insisted on altering them again while we waited. Mike and I said nothing. She wanted me to try them on again. I said no thank you. She said "You okay, me okay." I said nothing. I chose not to poke the crazy. I paid for the alterations and got the hell out of there. Her prices are fair and her work is good ... but god help you if you have a problem. Heed my warning!

That tailor shop is painfully overwhelmed with work. Don't expect your pants to be done on time but you can expect to be overcharged for a simple hem. Fred's tailors is located in the Sobey's across from the Halifax Shopping Centre on Mumford Rd near the NSLC entrance. The prices much more reasonable and the work is just as good. My pants were always ready to pick up when they said they would be and I never had to bring anything back because it was done improperly. That makes them #1 in my books.

I'm actually a little bit shocked that it hadn't been reviewed yet when I dropped off a couple pairs of pants the other day! It's a small shop on the upper level of Park Lane Mall found from the main entrance by hopping on the escalators or stairs off to the right -it's in the main hallway. The head tailor here has been my go-to for alterations on any piece of clothing that I just can't have messed up. Typically, this means hemming pricy denims down to my Smurf-life height without having to worry about them coming back too long, too short, or looking like I hemmed them myself. For an extra cost ($20 rather than the normal $8 for a hem), they'll do a euro hem which makes the bottom of your jeans look professionally finished rather than just folded up and shortened. Definitely worth it if you've invested in a great pair to start with. Not only that, but the tailor actually cares about the work he's doing. He'll take your measurements as per usual, but he'll also ask about the shoes you wear, how you stand regularly, whether you like them to run long, etc. Even for a simple hemming, Daniel's makes sure that it's done to suit you specifically. On Saturdays, appointments can be made for consultations on more complicated jobs which I haven't done before, but I have witnessed the change in my friends' wardrobes after getting run through this shop. I can't wait to bring in some okay-fitting stuff and leave with perfection!

Great style as soon as you walk in .Staff dressed to the nines and ready to help. sometime it is worth the extra $$ to get the attention and detail from a speciality store. Vogue has all men's fashions from suite up. Now these are not your average suites that you will find in the malls these are ones that when you walk in the room you will be notice. From custom to off the rack they are made with detail and quality. Shifts ties as well as sweaters or even casual wear that has style they have it all.Now this all comes with a price of course. But if you want to look good stand out in a crowd drop on by the old fashion men's club for a real suit.

Even though we had not purchased our items from here, they were more than pleased to tailor them for us for a reasonable price. We were impressed that the owner and others we met in the location were attentive, knew their business extremely well and offered advice to ensure the work would turn out well. Had we gone elsewhere, I would not have known to keep the euro hem in my new jeans, my husband's sport coat would have been taken in at the wrong seams, and I know his two nice shirts would have been a mess. Everything turned out better than I expected and we have found several other items that we will be taking in over the coming weeks. The fact that the work was done on time, in just a couple of days was also a very bug plus! We enjoyed the conversation while there and the on hand clothing selection is quite nice. The collection of ties is diverse and colourful. There is a little something for all tastes, the staff are up on trends, the selection is all higher quality and last summer there was a nice splash of bright colors we hadn't found elsewhere in Halifax. I highly recommend this location to any one, male or female, looking for a quality tailor who truly cares about his clients and his earning his good reputation!

Very attentive to detail and an excellent result. I would definitely recommend Chung's Custom Tailorread more
