Daniel's Tailor Shop & Drycleaning

Richard Daniel says one of the reasons for the continuing growth of his business is that they’ve introduced custom-made shirts into the mix, though just for men, for now. “We have different styles of shirts, different fabrics. We offer slim line, regular fit, loose fit. Collars, cuffs, pockets, off-tail, regular-tail, pleats.” The business client who can go in, get measured, then just order new shirts over the phone, knowing they will fit him perfectly. “We find we get a lot alterations and remodeling. A shirt is a real hard fit,” says Daniel. “Sometimes the sleeve length doesn’t accommodate the neck size” or vice versa. “If we have the measurements we have the blueprints,” which offers a customer the “ease of mind.” Park Lane Mall, 5657 Spring Garden, 423-6330
