At Bridal Expos and online, you usually get bombarded with the chain Menswear places to do your business with for your wedding day (like I did). The styles at these places were bland and I wanted something different. I stumbled upon Sam Michael's and from my first visit (of probably 5 or 6 in total), I was hooked! Walking in here for the first time, I didn't know what to expected. I explained that I was getting married, and 8 groomsmen and 2 parents that needed suits. I was sat down and shown all of my different rental options, which included suits, tuxes, pants, ties, shoes and other accessories. So many decisions, but I was granted the ability to stay there and think carefully, but also explained to that I can change it as many times as I want up to a month or so before the wedding date. Attached are some pictures of the suit I picked for myself and my groomsmen. It was a brand new suit in their inventory that they personally owned, as well as the color choice for my accents (pocket square and tie). Michael and team were very professional through the entire process. We had multiple texts and phone calls back and forth during my moving of our wedding date as well as when my accent color was discontinued. After the wedding was all said and done, I was granted a $500 shopping spree on a suit set of my choice. That was really exciting and I got a nice blue, checkered patterned suit. Initially the suit was advertised to me as "slightly more expensive" but better quality and service than competitors. After we allocated our wedding finances after we got married, at Sam Michael's, I actually spent LESS than what I budgeted and LESS than a competitor I was initially going to go with. Totally worth it here! Thank you Mike and team for everything! I felt like family every time I walked in. No errors or resizing for any of us during our pick ups.

I live downtown and happen to go in and ask if they did alterations because I saw they sold some very good looking items for men. Michael said yes and provided the best service and communication possible. I had two pairs of pants that needed altering and a top. The alterations were simply beautiful and fit like they were custom made for me. Thank you Michael for everything I definitely will be using your services again and telling my friends about Rifai. the turn around time was perfect PS Michael was also so kind to my puppy!!!

    I had an emergency. I was across the border, changing into my outfit for an evening out with my SO,…read morewhen the zipper splits and breaks completely. Oh no, what do I do? Well I checked for alterations in my area, three came up. The first told me there was no way he could fix my zipper that day (which frankly is bs as it takes less than an hour and I was willing to pay extra, but I digress). The second shop didn't even have a tailor on site! What nonsense! Finally, after two and a half hours of walking around Detroit, I came to this lovely shop. I walked in, about to burst into tears at the thought of my ruined plans, and begged if there was any way he could fix my zipper. I didn't care what it looked like, I just needed to wear it. "If course I can! Give me your name and number, it'll be ready in an hour". So much weight was just lifted off of my shoulders. You see, you can't go to a fancy restaurant in ratty shorts and a stained tank top (Starbucks and bumps in the sidewalk don't mix). My boyfriend and I walked around the corner and grabbed a beer while we waited. Half a pint and about 20 minutes later, I was greeted with a text that said my garment was ready. When I sent a text to say we'd be there shortly and he had my eternal thanks, I got a simple text back: "it's what I DO!" My dress looks beautiful. It was masterfully altered. I am beyond grateful that this wonderful man decided to help me. He knows what's he's doing, he's kind and very gracious. I am beyond tempted to bring all of my alteration needs across the border just to bring this man my business. I hope that anyone reading this is moved to his shop as well. You will not be disappointed.

    I first heard of this place because I was looking for quick alterations on my Halloween costume…read more My costume was too long so I needed them shortened, Clark (the owner) agreed to do in just a couple of hours and even delivered it to my office (which was only a few blocks from his shop) so I said okay to $30. He did alright on my costume, although I wasn't too worried about it since I was probably only going to wear it once. I then decided to give Clark another try on a pair of jeans I just got from Madewell because I needed them done in the next two days (sidenote: Madewell will hem any pair of pants you purchase from them, but unfortunately I also needed some tapering). When I arrived at his shop to drop my pair of jeans, I had an unsettling feeling in my stomach as if I should just turn around and bring my jeans elsewhere for a number of reasons: 1.) His shop is so unorganized located in an abandoned building (220 Bagley Ave.), there were piles of clothes carelessly stacked on the floor which basically took up 2/10 of his shop, 2.) After I tried the jeans on so he can measure/pin it, he disappeared into the back for almost 5 minutes. I waited and waited until I finally rang the doorbell again to remind him that I was still waiting, 3.) Finally, Clark didn't even have the proper pins to mark it, which I thought was unacceptable for a tailor! He just held my jeans to where I said I wanted them and then told me "I've got it." But I insisted that he use pins or something to mark where I wanted it to start and how tight I wanted it around my ankles. To my surprise, Clark called me within two hours and told me my jeans are ready and he will drop them off at the lobby of my office. I didn't have time to inspect it prior to giving Clark my payment, but when I had a chance to look at it later that day, it was very obvious that the job was VERY POORLY DONE. I didn't have to try it on to notice that the cut itself did not gradually get slimmer at the end like I would expect from a tapering job, rather the bottom of the pants bluntly got tighter- it looked like an amateur's work. Furthermore, I examined the sewing and it was noticeable that the thread was loose and carelessly uneven. I called Clark and expressed my utter disappointment and asked for my money back. He simply replied with "No, I can't do that". Be forewarned, Clark is a scammer! You are better off going to Eddie's Alterations in Royal Oak. I've had most of my alterations done by Eddie. He is very meticulous, does an amazing stitch work, and the clothes always come back so much better. But he does take some time, which is why I tried Clark to begin with - big mistake!
