Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent tailor in Burlington or financial district Toronto? I don't need significant work done, but some suits have loose button, pants need lining re-done, jackets sleeves need shortening. Probably have 5 suits that each need some level of work done.

I've used Xavier before near Yonge/Bloor like 7-8 years ago. He was really good, but I remember not liking something about the experience. I think his hours may have been limited and hard for me to get to. Would ideally like someone closer to union station, and probably dont need someone as good as him

Who cares if they don’t fit! They are 80% off that is all that matters!! For some!!

Also when $2300 Blake constructed shoes are high level… high level price that is no doubt.

Blake construction is not a sign of lower quality. There are Blake stitched shoes made to a high standard (e.g., Top-end Berluti), just as there are GY welted shoes made to a low standard (too many examples).
