    This a pair of pants AFTER he lowered his hem line by another inch

    I brought in 2 pants to be shortened. Everything seemed to go smoothly in the measurements with Armando. I wore the dress shoes I was planning to wear with the pants and put on a belt to hold them at the desired place on my waist. Picked up pants 2 days later. Tried them on at home and put on the same shoes and belt. They were way too short. I could see my socks. I tried to make them work by pulling them down but I realized I was forcing the issue. So I decided to go back in to ask if he could drop them a little. He had left 1.5" extra fabric, so I was hoping there was enough length to adjust his hem line. He was immediately defensive when I came in. He agreed they were too short (you could see my ankles) but then told me told me I must have moved when he measured. He agreed to fix them right then. The entire process only took about 10 minutes for each pant. I tried one pair on and asked his opinion. He said they were too long now. ? See pics. I accepted that and said fine, sensing his anger and defensiveness, and knowing the pants were beyond repair. The second pair turned out even worse. I asked him if he thought you should see my ankle and he went on about being in business for 45 years and had never had this happen, admitting to the mistake. Then he wanted to charge me $25/pant for the fix! He only accepts cash and I didn't have $50 on me. So I told him the pants were basically ruined and I couldn't wear them but he could keep them. (Seriously, I was willing to walk out in my underwear.) He just walked away and sat down at his sewing machine ignoring me so I just left - with my pants on thankfully. Weirdest alteration experience I have ever had. I think he needs to retire at this point.

    Access Armando's studio in Suite 9 by taking the stairs at the back of the building and following the clear signage.
