Can anyone recommend a tailor in or near Grand Rapids, MI? I am looking to have some sports coats and odd trousers altered (mostly Spier, Natalino). There are a few alterations shops here in GR, but I wonder (and have not yet found) someone specializing in menswear, a tailor who can work with me on separates I already own. I assume F. David Barney Clothiers (downtown GR) only tailors the items they sell -- but I could be wrong. Thanks for any suggestions.

I don't know the Grand Rapids tailoring scene very well, but my general advice would be to ask a good RTW store like A.K. Rikks where they send their clothing for tailoring. If F. David Barney only does custom tailoring then they might not be as helpful -- but it would never hurt to ask.
