    I was amazed by the quality of work here. I had my blazer sleeves shortened here and it was pretty tricky because of a special thing near the cuff. But they did it perfectly. It looked like exactly the same as the new one. The original cuff of my jeans after hemmed is also perfect, unlike what I got from other tailors. The prices here are beyond reasonable! This will be my go to place in the future

    Wilfred's is the best, specifically, Manny is an amazing tailor. I have taken brands from Banana Republic to Theory, cocktail dresses to suits, and Manny works his magic on all of them. I have used many tailors in the past but Wilfred's is the best. It is pricier than some other options in Manhattan, but definitely worth it. I have gone to other tailors in a pinch when I can't make it to Wilfred's, but the 1-2 times I did that, I ended up paying double because the work was so poor that I just brought them to Manny for him to fix the alterations. I have told all my friends to come here for tailoring and alterations.

    Fantastic service. I needed the sleeves of my suit jacket shortened, but I wanted it taken from the shoulder, not the cuff. They did a fantastic, seamless job that no one could tell. And the cost was completely worth the money. Can't wait to go back for more tailoring.

    Great tailoring services. I had bought a new suit, and the pants were about two sizes too small. The tailor at Wilfred's was able to take out the pants and made them fit perfectly. Talk to Robert who directed the alterations and coordinated with the tailor what was needed. Highly recommended. Everything was done on time and at a good price.

    One of the finest tailors I have been to. They are professional, patient, and pay great attention to detail. Although they require payment upfront, this was not an issue as they will work with you how many times necessary, to make sure you are satisfied.

    I personally required a difficult procedure done on my shoulders, which was too large and created divots. Although it required a couple coming backs, the end result was fantastic. ...
