Oh you are very close to me. Im in Burtonsville aka Silver Spring North (holds up gang fingers) I use Sargent cleaners in Olney for my dry cleaning. My brother swears by this place for alterations. I actually need to visit them.

I moved from VA to MD during Covid and now need to get some suit alterations done since I'm back in the office some. I had a great tailor while in VA but don't really want to drive over an hour each way to the tailor. Anyone have any tailor recommendations in MoCo?
Who was the great tailor in VA? Always looking for suggestions.

I need to show and tell since the other half doesn’t know. Still waiting for it to come in but I picked this up for next fall and winter. I really tried to not buy it but it checked a lot of boxes for me and was able to haggle down. Almost wish is was fall again…almost.

Does anyone have similar suggestions for DC, specifically Capitol Hill?
Will field moved his shop to the hill. William is the end all be all of tailoring in DC. If you have anything you care about, it’s William.
