I have a coat that needs some repair. It hasn't kept up with my wild antics. Just needs some restitching. I think. I don't know what I'm talking about.
Where can I take it to get fixed up? I love the coat and I'm very sad about this :(

I just got two jackets done at Jin's on 1st Ave. in Grandview. Good job...good prices. Highly recommended.

Bump.
I'm also looking for a good but affordable tailor to tailor some blazers from H&M.
So far I've been looking through CU's threads to find good suggestions for a good tailor. I've come up with Shim's, Boris, and Jin's that sound promising.
Anyone else have any suggestions?

We go to the woman across from Giant Eagle and next to Barcelona in German Village. She is awesome. She can do a lot more than simple hemming and does it precisely and quick. She's Russian, and not much for small talk. Expect a "Go to platform" rather than "hello."

She is also always dressed up in high heels no matter what time you go. I love her. The place is called German Village Alterations...

My advice would be if "alterations" is in the name do not go. While there are no top notch tailors in Columbus, Borris is by far the best.

They've done (lined) pants hemming and shirt alteration for me, they did a pretty major repair to a friend's down coat (torn pocket, zipper issue, lining issue), they do about 9 billion dresses during dance/prom/wedding season, etc, etc.

So what you are saying is they do basic repairs? Do you know the difference in a tailor and someone who does alterations?
