Where in DC do people like to get their OTR suits tailored? Anywhere that does working button cuffs at a reasonable price? Have had pretty good experience with JC Lofton for simple stuff but curious about any other options.

Christopher Kim, 2000 M Street, NW. He's good and fast, but not cheap. I'm sure he can do working buttonholes.

I’ve been going to Geoffrey Lewis for over a decade. They do great work.

good riddance, I think the same of nyc.
I’m sort of torn but suspect I wouldn’t like living in NYC unless I was fabulously rich. DC is more livable. Going to check this out soon at the Hirschhorn:
