Eric has decided to first check out Brooks Brothers and Hong Kong Custom
Tailor.  If those don't work out, he'll probably check-out some of the others
on the list.

Hi, Joanne.  Well, I have info on suits, but no opinion...yet.  I had a suit's
sleeves shortened at Stylegate on Walnut St.  Surprisingly, that place 
charged almost the least out of the stores around N. Oakland/Shadyside/
Sq. Hill, at least from phone quotes.  After the shortening, I tried the
suit on at home, and it still seemed a little long.  I haven't gone back
yet to ask them about it.  They seem to know about the finer points of
style, though, like having the shirt cuff exposed under the suit, etc.,
and they do custom-make shirts and suits.

Please let me know what else you find out.  

Sammy

Joanne-
I would most heartily recommend Drucker's on Murray Ave. for both
getting any alterations done and having suits made.  I've been
going there for about eight years and have always been quite
satisified with their service (plus the people are nice, too).
They are half-way down on Murray Ave., a couple doors down, but
in the same block as, the Mobil gas station on the left-hand
side (as you're going down the hill) of Murray.

      Joanne,
            A neighbor of mine has a tailor shop located in Bellvue.
  I personally can not speak from experience, but some other neighbors
  claim he does excellent work for a modest price. I can not even tell
  you how to get there because he actually lives in the South Hills.
  The information I am posting I found in the Yellow pages. 

    Jesse's Tailor Shop
    6 Hawley Avenue
    Bellvue          Phone # 766-1954
                 
    Hope this is some help.             Steve (SK2I@andrew)

Steve-

Thanks for trying, but I called and he does not make custom-made suits.
I'll post the results after the message has been there for about 24 hours.

Joanne
