Umberto's Custom Tailors Ltd

Did my wedding tuxedo/shoes. Best suit I have been able to find in Calgary.

The dress shoes are a hidden gem. You're able to design them to order and the quality is that of high end designer brands.

Claudio made me a custom shirt for my wedding. The shirt fit perfectly on the first try and it was ready in 3 weeks.

I have very long arms so "off the rack" shirts are hard to find so I have alot of experience with made-to-measure (MTM) shirts.

Umberto's is more expensive than other MTM companies out there, but in my opinion it is worth it.

Umberto's does all the work in-house so the same person that's measuring you is also creating your shirts - so it is easier to get the fit right. The fabric quality is also superior to other MTM companies.

Because they do everything in-house, there is no shipping time and the you get your shirt much faster than other MTM companies that offshore their tailoring. I got my shirt in 3 weeks, and this was a busy "wedding season" time for Claudio (I'm guessing he can get you a shirt faster in a different time of year). My experience with other MTM companies is 4-6 weeks to get your shirt.

I was very satisfied with Umberto's service and will definitely be back in the future for all my custom shirt needs.

After being frustrated with poor service from other tailors, I found Umberto’s. I can say from experience, Umberto’s is the real deal. Claudio helped me select the perfect fabric, cut, and style for my suit. It looks amazing! Plus, he was was able to deliver my suit ahead of schedule. Umberto’s customer service is top notch!

I’ve had two sport coats and a suit made here. These have been the best clothing purchases i’ve made. I’ve found that buying suits at the other places (even “made to measure”) is a total waste of time and money because the quality and fit can never come close to what Claudio can do.

Forget Savile Row, Just go to 6th Ave!

Umberto's represents the 1% of places that truly honour the craft of suit making. I went to EVERY major menswear store in the city wanting a particular look and feel for my wedding suit. What I learned was that 99% of places - big, small, high end, low end, just take your measurements and send them to some factory (offshore or within NA). Either way, what you get is a "custom-fitted" suit that comes from a some template. When you go to Umberto's YOU are the template, and the suit is made IN-HOUSE.

Umberto's creates BESPOKE suits tailored to you, and the cost is comparable and can even be less than the "brand name" and "made-to-measure" competition (depending on your fabric selection). At Umberto's, you get the impression they care about the details because it's their name on wall. The suit is made IN-HOUSE to your taste and style, they are fully canvased, and critical stitches are done by hand.

I couldn't be happier with my suit and highly recommend going here. One piece of advice - go in with a budget because it can be easy to get carried away.

Side note - they also have their own custom shoe line, which is really cool, but I don't have any personal experience with so can't speak to it.

Just an absolute hidden gem for getting a custom made suit at a great price. The beauty and old world charm to this place is amazing they make their suits in house, including all touch ups and alterations. They listen to your needs and make you feel at home. Even if you are not there to get it made and your measurements are the same they can make what you want and ship it to you. That’s amazing. I would definitely go back and get another suit made to measure the Umberto way. Bravissimo gentlemen.

Have been a client of Umberto's for nearly 6 years - the quality of the product is second to none and the service Claudio provides is exceptional.

I should start by saying this is the only review I’ve ever done, and prob will be the last lol.

I’m 32 and I wanted a more modern/fitted looking suit.

I bought 6 suits, shirts, ties, and pocket squares (for my wedding party - who ranged from 5 foot 7 - 140 pounds to 6 foot 6 - 260)

I got hooked up with Claudio from good old google. I did loads of research; websites, reviews etc. Even though I thought his website was the worst, lol, his reviews were impeccable.so I ended up picking between him and one other place.

I called both places.not only was Claudio more professional, and able to answer my questions with 110% confidence.he just seemed to “know suits” a lot more then his competition.

The process was semi knew for me (I wear suits everyday for work, but usually just buy off the rack; boss, zenga, etc)

After some back and forth I learned a few things.
A perfect fitting suit is much like a tattoo.if you tell the artist you want “a skull” And let him just draw any skull.you get what you get lol.

However, Claudio was super interactive the whole fitting process making sure I got what I wanted and listened to exactly how I wanted everything to fit.

Good attention to detail with little things like coloured buttons on my shirt, names on the suits, silk linings, etc.

All of our suits are a great fit.
The stitching his dad did was second to none.
I’m completely happy with my suit.

If you want to get “your best look”

Go see Claudio.
