3 reviews for Balani Custom Clothiers
This place is the best. If you ever need anything tailored, go here. The customer service is outstanding.
I had to get a suit delivered to me for a wedding and by the time i got it i only had a few days to get it tailored. They tailored the jacket and pants for me in a day, perfectly.
They are the most reasonably priced tailor, at this quality, i've ever been to.
Quality work and knowledgeable service. Ask for Joe. He'll take care of you.
Balani Custom Clothiers is amazing! Joe Mapes worked with us to put together 12 suits for our wedding back in September. The suits turned out perfect. Not only did they fit well, but the quality was there too! Balani went out of their way to make sure everything went smoothly throughout the entire process. We had out of town groomsmen and they put in extra time to see that they were fitted as well. The showroom in the loop is beautiful and we were always made to feel extremely comfortable when we stopped in. We will definitely be visiting Balani in the future.
I went to Balani Clothiers on the recommendation of my dad's friend- and have to admit, I was a little uncomfortable with the idea of being poked and prodded by an elderly tailor then dumped into a suit that was he thought I should be wearing. I was really pleased to be mistaken.
When I entered the store, I was impressed by how elegant it looked- how edgy. I met with Sonny (shocked to find a guy my own age there) and he helped me put together a really sharp suit. I'm not a loud dresser, so the collection of dark materials was best for me- but I did see some stuff that I would definitely consider for a more casual event. The attention I received there was outstanding- will definitely be returning there soon.
