Oleg Yusufov Custom Tailor

An absolute professional. I go out of my way to bring everything I need done to Oleg. The turnaround time is absolutely worth it and once you meet him, you’ll understand why. I came here thanks to word of mouth at first and I’m glad I listened. Upfront, honest, and an absolute professional.

Oleg is a true craftsman and gentleman. Suit and a custom vest to match came out perfect. We just moved back to Milwaukee after 12 years away. I have gone to tailors in NYC, LA and Dallas but Oleg surpasses them all with patience and details. Highly recommended.

I brought in a suit coat in need of alterations and Oleg knew exactly what to do. It was about a two week turnaround but well worth it. The fit is now perfect. I will definitely work with him again.

Amazing job! Brought in my uniform on a Friday afternoon explaining my situation with little time and needing it by Wednesday and he was done by Monday afternoon. He took full responsibility and kept his words saying it’d be ready by Tuesday and it was done ! Highly recommended!

I was in a jam and needed a suit altered the morning of a wedding. They were able to alter it and were willing to stay open after hours to get it done for me. Truly appreciates.

This tailor is highly overrated in my opinion, or people have never had the pleasure of working with a truly good tailor. Joe Vella, Oleg is not. I took a suit coat in to have it rewoven because of a few moth holes. It sat there for two weeks. Only until my wife and I called twice did we hear anything about it being ready. And when I was told it was ready, it was not. Oleg asked me to sit down and he’d be with me in a few minutes. This gave him a chance to grab some thread and he proceeded to stitch up the moth holes on the spot. In short, he put in about 5 minutes of work into this suit coat. He also missed quite a few holes. Any good tailor worth his or her salt knows you don’t stitch up holes. It needs to be rewoven. Obviously, Oleg doesn’t have the expertise to provide this service. A nice guy? Maybe. Disappointing? Definitely. I don’t expect a 100% perfection on a rewoven suit coat. I just expect it to be rewoven, not stitched up with cheap-​a** thread. I could have done that. Sorry, Oleg, you failed miserably with this customer. I cannot recommend this guy at all. I should have known from the get-​go that this was not the tailor for me. He does strictly a cash business. Now I know why.

Dropped off a pair of heavyweight (18 oz) selvedge denim for hemming.
While it did take a couple weeks, his work was high quality and priced well at 20 dollars flat. He called me to let me know I could come and pick them up even though the store was closed.
Really nice guy.

Oleg is fantastic!!! With only 24 hours before a wedding, Oleg was able to take in my boyfriend’s suit in the waist, let out the pants in the pelvis and hem the pants to the right length!!! Oleg charged extra for the expedited service, but the prices were completely reasonable! This was after we had tried making an appointment three days earlier with another tailor who said all that could be done by Saturday was the pants hem. Oleg is so genuinely nice and deserves all of the kind words said about him!
His work is fantastic! I can’t believe he fixed the whole suit in less than a day!!!
The has two new customers for life!
Thank you so much, Oleg! Alan looked dapper at his brother’s wedding!
Cash or Check only

If anyone tells you that there is a better tailor than Oleg in Milwaukee, let me know and I’ll make sure they get laughed out of town.
Oleg, an immigrant himself, is one of the most hardworking and caring businessperson I have encounter. His shop doesn’t really give much to write home about but this is one of those places where it exists for one reason: To tailor some damn clothes. Nothing else matters when it comes to needing clothes appropriately fitted.
Oleg is old school when it comes to this, and nothing can replace that. Honestly, do not go to anyone else because Oleg will chuckle when you bring him your mis-​altered pants!

Oleg is not only a genuinely nice person but he’s a great tailor.
I was in a bind late on a Friday meeting full alterations for an Italian suit and shirt by Sunday morning. Even though I have never been there before he told me not to worry. He opened early for me Saturday morning and did two separate alteration runs to make sure everything was perfect.
The suit now looks custom made and I’ll continue to take everything I have to him (On my way as we speak to get a suit and jeans altered).

Oleg was a lifesaver! When I tried on my wedding dress a couple weeks before my big day it was too tight (eick!!!) Oleg fixed the dress on one week and did a wonderful job. Highly recommended!

Not cheap, and he’s not one to consistently price things or give you a quote upfront. Expect to wait 3 – 4 weeks for an order. But he does a bang up job. He’s fixed my stuff when no other tailor would’ve touched it. I’m talking pants split through the crotch; he makes them look like new. He also text messages his customers, which is kinda neat.

I will only trust my suits to Oleg.
Yes, his prices are higher than average — but you get what you pay for.
Yes, he takes a while to get things done sometimes — but it’s obvious he is in high demand.
Yes, his work is excellent — and he stands by it. If something doesn’t work, he fixes it.
I’m glad I stumbled in here one day and kept coming back.
Thanks, Oleg!

I have used Oleg 4 times over the course of the last three years. Each time I used Oleg I hoped that the next experience would be better. Unfortunately, Oleg’s services never improved.
I had Oleg alter an overcoat, a suit jacket, a few shirts, and a few pants for me. If given clear instructions Oleg can do acceptable work. And I feel comfortable giving him a suit jacket and having him work on the shoulders – something that other tailors can have trouble working on.
That said, his prices run on the higher end of the spectrum for Milwaukee even for more simple alterations such as hemming pants or taking in a shirt. While his services are generally adequate, on at least two occasions, Oleg failed to deliver on what was requested.
Making matters worse is that Oleg never once timely returned a garment. When running late he did not communicate that he woud need extra time. My overcoats took 10 weeks when he promised them in 4 weeks. I had a pair of pants that took nearly 6 weeks. Eventually, I waited in his store for the pants while he made the alterations. In his haste, he failed to follow my instructions.
If you have the time and the money, perhaps Oleg is worth it. I just dont feel that way anymore.

Oleg Yusufov is a custom tailor indeed. He is good at his craft and the people of Shorewood know it. Here are a few things you should know first.
I dropped off 4 items and it was over a month later that they were finished. I don’t know if it is the volume of items that were dropped off or his level of detail that required all that time, but that is a pretty long for me. So don’t expect immediate results.
He is cash only. If you didn’t bring any, there is across the street. That leads me to my next point, the cost is steeper than most tailors so be prepared.
All things said and done I was very happy with the result. If you are looking for a low cost hem or alteration, this may not be the right place. Sidenote, he is an incredibly nice man and was a pleasure to deal with.

I’ve been to Oleg several times over the years.
I do a fair amount of sewing, so most things, I can handle myself — but sometimes life interferes and I don’t get around to hemming things.
I go to Oleg when
a) the job is very complicated
b) it’s a rush job that I won’t have time to do.
His work is excellent.
He’s done some complicated work for me (a full length silk gown, with a hem on the bias that needed to be shortened, comes to mind.) It was impeccable when he was done.
He’s also done some «easy» work for me — hemming pants, etc. Again, the work was impeccable.
He’s very friendly and cares about his customers. If it’s a rush job — tell him — they will try to get it done for you.
The prices for easy work do seem steep — but you get what you pay for. His work is always impeccable. When the work is complicated — well, the results have always been worth the price.
This business was cash only as of a few months ago — which is nice to know when you go to pick up your items.

I came here to have a bridesmaid’s dress fixed at the urging of Unilocalers. Drop off went fine, he measured one arm and pinned one side.
When I went back to pick it up, they rushed me and I didn’t have a chance to try it on. The next day, take the dress out of my suitcase only do find they’ve only sewed one side! I called and complained to Oleg and he said that was impossible, he knows how to do his job and that I should come in and show it too him. Only thing was I’d just flown to the east coast for the wedding and it was too little too late.

Okay, so I heard all y’all out and went to Oleg to hem a pair of maternity jeans that were way too long Normally, I con my dear mother into hemming pants for me however with a growing belly, I needed these jeans done STAT.
So, I visit him and he is seriously the cutest man ever. I get what you all were saying about his old school service– because folks like him just don’t really exist anymore. However… I wasn’t prepared for the 3 week wait on the hem and the $ 18 price tag! Whooo-​wee! It’s my bad for not asking the price up front– but I honestly assumed it would be less than $ 10. I got the jeans for $ 7 so I was hoping not to pay more than $ 10 for the hem.
Overall, I would use him again but probably ask for the price up front as to not be sticker shocked when I get the bill. The work he did was quality. Just don’t be in a hurry to get your items back… dude is busy.

The weekend was off to a shaky start after the Brew Crew’s Friday night loss and the discovery that the dress shirt I had purchased at Men’s Wearhouse for an upcoming wedding was a few sizes larger than expected. Unilocal!never steers me wrong, so when I found that Oleg Yusufov was the highest rated tailor in the city I went to his tailoring shop with confidence.
Oleg’s an incredibly nice man who makes you feel like the reason he is in business is to take care of YOUR tailoring needs. I realize the shirt I brought in is not going to pay for the expenses to keep his doors open, but he made me feel like it was… which instantly made my weekend a little more enjoyable.
His rates are reasonable and he accommodated the rush job I brought in without blinking an eye. While I haven’t seen the quality of his work, the first impression made insured me this is a man I will be doing business with many times in the future!

I don’t give out 5 stars often, but it is well deserved here. Plain and simple — Oleg does a great job with amazing customer service — period. I tried him because of the reviews on Unilocal and was not dissappointed. I dropped off a suit coat, an overcoat, and two pairs of pants for repair. Here are some examples of the service he provided:
— First of all, I called him just before 5pm (his closing time) and he offered to wait and stay open 30 minutes just to let me drop off the clothes the same day! How many places will do that today?
— He not only completed my items very quickly (even before the due date), he personally called me to let me know everything was done and read to be picked up. When I picked them up, I got stuck in the traffic and again was going to run past 5pm and he offered to stay late — again! I was happy to get there right at 5pm anyways, but still…
— He fixed several problems on my pants that I had missed, such as replacing the entire inside pocket — it had a hole (because the last tailor did a bad job) that he caught and took the initiative to repair. I don’t even think he charged me for it…
— The work he did was impeccable. He even repair a hole in a suit that I didn’t think anyone could fix. Amazing.
— While I can’t say for sure his prices are good because I have no idea of the «going rate» for tailoring, I think that he is a good value. I had the sleeves on my wool overcoat shortened, I had a suit coat taken in at the sides and sleeves shortened, and two pairs of pants tailored, along with 1 pair that had to have a patch woven into them, a zipper repaired and the pockets were replaced and my total bill was $ 115. I thought that was a deal.
— My only possible knock would be that he doesn’t take credit cards, but that really isn’t a surprise and common in his business.
All in all: Great work, great service!
