Problem is that I have no idea who in town does such a job...

Dunns on granville. They will take your HUGO/ARMANI/TED BAKER and adjust accordingly. I was quoted about $70-85 for basic adjustments.

The Bay Downtown has amazing sales every now and then where you get 40-60% off suits, pants, shirts, ties, etc. They're high quality clothing for VERY affordable pricing.
After spending $1000+ on suits in the past, I see no benefit over those suits than the ones I spend $400-$600 on. I would rather buy a few different suits for $500/each from Zara or The Bay than buy one suit for more money that ends up being no better in quality or design.
I bought the bicycle suit from Strellson and it's one of my favourites thus far. It's dirt and water repellent, straight cut and very comfortable. There are zippered pockets inside the pockets to hold valuable items and is very breathable.
Of course, it all depends on your size and style but if you are a slim/straight fit type of guy, give Strellson a try.

the fit of Strellson clothes are fuken EPIC!
