A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

There are a few things that every girl needs to look her best. A good hairstylist, a good esthetician, a good cobbler (the shoe variety-not the fruit variety! ) and a good tailor. I’ve got three out of four so that’s not bad. Anyone who knows of a great shoe cobbler, let me know!

I’ve been going to see Michael for about 5 years now. He’s out west in the Natick/Framingham area, but he’s totally worth it. He recognizes me every time I go in and he’s always friendly and upbeat. He genuinely appreciates my business (and tells me every time).

Anyone can hem a pair of pants. I used to work in retail years ago and I marked off more pants to be hemmed than I care to remember. Michael is the real deal, a real craftsman. I was there just the other day and watched him take in a suit 6 sizes too big (the guy said it was a nice suit and a great deal-so what if it wasn’t in his size? That’s why he has Michael).

I’m on the short, 5’4″, so it’s hard to find a pair of pants that fit well. I can never just buy a pair off the rack. Michael shortens all my pants (and puts the original hem back on) and makes each pair look like they were custom made. He is the resident tailor for Jos A Bank and works with many of the stores in the Natick Collection. He has a steady stream of business but if I need something rushed, he accommodates me. I highly recommend Michael’s work.

Michael is located right on Route 9, in the same shopping plaza as Legal Seafood and Jos A Bank. Enter in the side door near the paint ball store.
