J. Crew is going with Albert because he's not shabby and charges a very good price for the average consumer (which means when J.Crew bulk orders alterations, it won't be as expensive as Townline Tailors or whoever Harry Rosen uses).

There are three types of GOOD tailors: Those who do quality alterations, those who know what's stylish and current, those who know what's stylish AND can alter a garment with quality. Albert is the first type. I haven't been able to find the third type in Vancouver. |
For your third type, I would say the closest to that is Oakridge Tailors. William knows what's in and he and his wife know how to get it done. It's obvious that it's best to have an idea of what kind of alterations you would like done to your suits; however, the nice touch about Oakridge tailors is they're able to give you a second opinion that fits the style you're going for.
