Default OT: I need a tailor

guy i usually go to is packing his stuff and moving to the east coast for a better gig.

all i ask is for them to have an opinion, sometimes i think a cut/drape/length/etc is a good idea - it's their jobs to keep me in check.

fwiw - i prefer british fit, and they need to be able to re-hem denim.

bonus points for putting collars onto shirts.

go!

Default Steven's Creek nearly across the street from the Audi dealer. I think it's Manuel's?

He does a great job. I now take everything to him.
