Tailors - central London

Can anybody recommend any tailors for some alterations (I'm particularly after a quick turnaround since i have 24 hours there if I'm lucky)

Have a few pairs of TF trousers that need the length /sorted and hemmed

Maybe Im crazy but wouldn't let anyone other than a TF tailor work on my TF stuff, I would contact the London store and tell them what you need

I was under the impression they send out to a third party tailor hence not a quick turnaround.

I found online a independent tailor who claims he does alterations for TF Sloane Street as well as Milan in the past (Italian guy), maybe worth an enquiry.

I also have concerns but as it was only really the trouser length etc thought an experienced London tailor would not bodge it lol

There's loads of tailors around the north of Oxford Street area, seems to be an unofficial 'garment district'

Check out Golden Stitches in Fulham. They're very good.

Yup, I had a vintage 60's corduroy (it was crazy thick) jacket and they did an excellent job of altering the sides, back and fixing the vent.

Ask for Basim as he deals with the mens side. (The others can help too, but phone ahead if you do decide to go to see if he's available).

Are you after simple hem adjustment? (I.e. lengthening or shortening).

Yes would def call in advance to explain I need fast turnaround etc.

I have a pair of TF trousers and also my TF Suit trousers which came unhemmed (Skyfall Sharks Skin variation)

I believe they do a same day service too, but it will cost extra.

I know TF NY have tailors in-house, I assumed that all of their shops would. I know they do an an incredible job of hemming trousers which included trouser tape(?) and a button for some reason inside the leg.
