A block from Times Square, Charlie’s Custom Tailor has built suits, shirts, and tuxedos to measure — and repaired the ones you already own — by hand, on the premises, one client at a time.
Every garment starts with a pattern cut exclusively for you, fabric chosen from a private collection, and measurements taken by hand — finished until it fits perfectly, or your deposit is refunded in full.
A pattern made exclusively for you, handmade by our expert tailors, with the option to add a vest for a classic three-piece look.
Perfect fit in the collar, chest, waist, and sleeves, chosen from over 2,000 fabrics — with your initials, if you like.
A modern tapered cut or a traditional classic fit — handmade from fine fabrics sourced from England and Italy.
A versatile piece for dressing pants or jeans, with a precise fit through the chest, waist, and sleeves.
Built with the same techniques used by English and European master tailors, for weddings, galas, and black-tie nights.
Wool, cashmere, or lightweight fabrics in a double-breasted, peak-lapel, or full-length style for New York winters.
Also available: Charlie’s Clothing, our ready-to-wear alterations shop line, starting at $999.
Our tailors — together with more than 90 years of combined experience — create a pattern exclusively for each client and take every measurement by hand. Fabric, lining, buttons, and every detail are yours to choose, then cut, sewn, and fitted until it’s right.
We work with the same techniques and craftsmanship used by English and European master tailors for over a century.
Rush alterations, same-day service, and free delivery in Manhattan — we can take a size 40 and turn it into a 36 in no time, on designer pieces or everyday favorites.

“Top-notch — tailor does leather! Most tailors don’t have the machinery to alter a nice leather garment… Marcos and company are perfectionists. They fixed up the 20-year-old leather jacket I had from frozen tundra days in Minnesota and updated it so well that people, thinking the jacket is new, ask me where they can get one. Bravo!”
“Best tailor in NYC — Marcos is the man! It fit like a glove — Marcos made the suit look like a suit is supposed to look, fitted and polished. I highly recommend Charlie’s Custom Tailor. Marcos and his staff are efficient, friendly, and professional.”
“The best tailor I found in NY. I am a lawyer and I like to dress very beautiful and also to look professional… I’ve been perfectly satisfied with their work, perfect measure in my alterations, and very understandable and friendly.”
“The service is totally very good and professional. I was treated by Marcos… the care and service is excellent and professional. Thanks to Marcos for being honest and for the work you’ve done for me.”
