I bought some Linen trousers recently from an online retailer, and despite their awkward detailing (Jeans-style pockets for one thing), I have decided that they are an adjustment or two away from being my favourite casual trousers for next summer.
That's a little enjoyable tale for you. My question is:
Standard waist and length adjustments: who do you use? I'm tempted to think that, for such a basic task, any tailor that would agree to do it might suffice, but I thought I should double check here, lest any of you know of a tailor who would do such adjustments at a price that isn't too ridiculous (in the context of them already being relatively cheap trousers).

Thanks,

Louis

Dear Louis,

recommend you go to the most expensive / fancy RTW retailer where you live, and ask them who they recommend as alteration tailor. What you want to be done on your trousers is basic.

kind regards, David
