I recently had a pair of leather pants altered by Mr. Lee, owner and tailor of White Flint Custom Tailors and am truly amazed by his quality of work. The pants not only fit great, both the leather and satin lining seams are very professional-looking. It was very impressive work.
I asked him to convert my high-wasted pants to a low-rise style by cutting about 2-3 inches off the top but not to worry about re-using the old snap buttons and hook. On top of it, this was all done long-distance through my parents since I Iive in a different state, but he came so highly recommended. Not only was he able make the style-change, he was also able to salvage the original button snap and hook by lengthening the waistband using the remnants he had cut off from the top of the pants. I was thoroughly impressed by his workmanship, especially since leather and satin are difficult fabrics to work with.
I was in town for the holidays and was able to meet Mr. Lee and pick up the pants in person. Not only is he talented in is craft, he is so hard-working and very personable. He says he can alter anything, but specializes in dresses. I peeked at the hem on one of the dresses he had just finished and it looked like a store-bought hem!
So, if you have any tailoring you need done, big or small, I highly recommend you take it to Mr. Lee and let him work his magic on it. You won’t regret it!
