Bring in your clothes. Leave wearing a custom fit.
Precision alterations and garment repairs in Toronto. Every hem, seam, and zipper handled with care, so your clothes fit like they were made for you.
Clothes should fit you, not the rack.
We handle the alterations, repairs, and custom fitting that make off-the-rack clothing feel like it was made for you. No shortcuts, no rushed stitches.
Precision alterations
Every seam is measured twice, then stitched once. That's the Borggren way.
Garment repairs
From torn linings to broken zippers, we bring your pieces back to life.
Custom fitting
We pin, adjust, and re-pin until the silhouette sits right on your body.
Suit adjustments
Shoulders, sleeves, waist, seat. We tailor your suit to move with you, not against you.
Hemming & resizing
Pants, dresses, sleeves. We adjust length and fit so nothing drags or strains.
Straightforward pricing for honest work
Every alteration is priced by the work it takes, not by what we think you'll pay. Clear, itemized quotes before we pick up a needle.

How a proper fit changes the way a suit feels
A well-fitted garment does more than look right. It moves with you, and you trust it every time you wear it.
Samuel adjusted my suit jacket for a wedding, and the difference was night and day. It finally sat right across the shoulders, and I forgot I was wearing it.
Daniel
Groom, downtown Toronto
I brought in a pair of dress trousers that never sat right. After the hem and taper, they feel like they were cut for me. I have worn them every week since.
Priya
Marketing manager, Toronto
The zipper replacement on my favourite winter coat was done in a day. The stitching is clean and even. You would never know it had been repaired.
Marcus
Architect, Toronto
Samuel took in a dress that was too loose in the bodice and too long in the skirt. It fits beautifully now, and I plan to bring more pieces in.
