Where Sam works.

Sam has been cutting suits in Vaughan for more than thirty years. The studio on Charlton is where most clients start: a quiet room of wool, light and patience, one client at a time.

Many of Sam's Thornhill clients come to him first for the traditional garments and stay for everything else: wedding parties, Shabbos suits, and the daily working wardrobe.

The studio is just past Steeles, about fifteen minutes up from Yonge & Sheppard. Worth the trip for the first suit that ever truly fit.

A downtown showroom prices its lease into every order. Sam works from a studio in Vaughan instead: he comes to your office for the first appointment, you come up once for the fitting, and after that your measurements are on file, so the next order is a phone call.

Richmond Hill clients come down to the studio, about twenty minutes straight down Bathurst, and a whole wedding party can be booked in as one block so everyone is measured the same afternoon.

Markham wedding parties come to the studio together, booked as one block so the groom, the groomsmen and both fathers are measured the same afternoon. About twenty-five minutes across on the 407.

The Bathurst–Lawrence and Lawrence Manor community is where Sam's traditional work lives: Shabbos suits, simcha garments, and the fine dark suit that reads as kavod in shul.

For the Bay Street crowd who can't lose half a day to a showroom, Sam comes to the office for the first appointment. The studio keeps the fabric books, the shears and every client pattern in one place, which is why the fitting happens there, once.

In Yorkville you can pay for a showroom or pay for a tailor. With Sam, every dollar goes into the fabric and the hand that cuts it, not the address.

From The Kingsway to Mimico, the west end is forty minutes from the studio, so the first appointment comes to you: Sam measures you at your office, and you make the drive once, for the fitting.
