A good tailor required

[Matt_B]

I bought a pair of trousers t'other day and need about 1/4 taking up on the legs as they are scuffing under my shoes. Does anybody know a good, cheap tailor in the Leicester city center or near to Markfield? The trousers were only £30 so don't want to pay a huge amount to have them altered.

If it's only ¼" you could do it yourself with wundaweb - you can buy shorter lengths at haberdashers (or did you mean that you need to take a quarter of the leg up?)

You may be thinking about your own trousers Boc.

Oh no, that'd be THREE quarters off the length wouldn't it :icon_bigg

To be fair I've put on a few pounds since those FB pictures were taken. Less Joe Jordon more Buster Bloodvessel now!

There's an adjustment place in the malcolm arcade- from what I remember it's not ridiculous- worth a look maybe? Near casino, opposite another world.

I don't have to rely on Facebook to know what you look like unfortunately.

I seem to recall seeing one on Upperton Rd, not far from the Liberty statue. Don't know what they're like, just remember seeing them when I've been waiting in traffic.

The place on Churhgate was good last time I was there.

Alteratively, tell the Mrs to woman-up as its clearly her job to deal with all needle and thread related matters!
