While I am no expert on bespoke suits or on tailoring, I was very impressed with Ali, and his work.
Ali was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He clearly took his work very seriously, and was very concerned that I got what I wanted and liked the finished product.
I find that most tailors are mildly arrogant and do not share much of their process or methods with you, unless you spend $$$. I actually took in a cheap made to measure suit I bought off the Internet, and Ali gave me great feedback on its quality, and there wasn't a hint of condescention that I brought in a cheap suit. He also let out the chest and stomach for $60.00.
I'm thinking of going back for one of his bespoke suits, once I get a little more money in the bank.
