The 5 best custom-made tailors in Montreal for suits you’ll want to wear

We extensively test and research all services we review. Here's why you can trust us.

The 5 best custom-made tailors in Montreal for suits you’ll want to wear

There’s just something about rocking clothes that are made just for you. When the fit is spot-on, the fabric is exactly what you picked, and every little detail screams “you,” it’s like a confidence boost on steroids.

Honestly, these are the pieces I reach for whenever I need to feel unstoppable.

If that hits home, don’t worry—we’ve got you. I rounded up my team and went on a hunt for the best custom tailors in Montreal.

Here are the ones we’d actually hire when the time to suit up comes up again. 

How much does a custom suit cost in Montreal?

A custom suit in Montreal typically costs between CAD 800 and CAD 5,000. Most people spend around CAD 1,200–2,000 for good fabrics and a proper fit.

How we chose the best custom maid tailors in Montreal

Craftsmanship: We looked at how precise and detailed the tailoring is, from stitching and seams to fit and finishing touches.
Fabric Options: We checked the variety and quality of fabrics offered. We made sure clients have plenty of choices for their style and needs.
Turnaround Time: We considered how long it takes for a suit to be completed and delivered. The tailors must meet promised deadlines reliably.
Communication: We assessed how easy it is to talk to the tailor, get advice, and have questions answered throughout the process. 
Pricing: We evaluated whether the cost matches the quality, craftsmanship, and services provided.

1. Nathon Kong: Bespoke Custom Suit

Nathan Kong is a very hands-on designer in Montreal. A lot of people mentioned how well he reads people and translates vague ideas into something that actually works on the body.

A powerlifter who had a suit tailored here could back that up. He said his suit fit perfectly and drew a lot of compliments. 

The use of 3D body-scanning plays a big role here. It’s used as a tool to get extremely precise measurements from the start.

Design-wise, his works stay clean and contemporary on the outside. It’s great for weddings, formal events, and professional settings.

The personality comes in on the inside, where custom linings feature artwork from local artists. 

This detail came up a lot and felt like a signature move. It adds a layer of meaning without turning the suit into something flashy.

Fabric options also cover a wide range, starting with solid house cloths. They also have premium mills like Loro Piana, Cerruti, and Zegna.

We also appreciated that the consultation fee is credited when an order is placed. 

Pricing is on the higher end for custom-made tailors in Montreal. However, most clients feel the quality, fit, and experience justify the cost.

Pros

  • Outstanding fit
  • 3D body-scanning
  • Accommodates non-standard body types
  • Distinctive custom linings
  • Access to premium fabrics
  • Highly personalised
  • Credited consultation fee if an order is placed

Cons

  • Premium pricing

So impressed with the fit and quality

“I ordered a custom made suit for my wedding, and was so impressed with the fit and quality that I ordered a dress shirt as well. It was my first time ever buying a custom made suit and the process with Nathon Kong was surprisingly simple and easy. I definitely recommend Nathon and his team, the experience was a pleasure, and they were always professional and friendly. Thanks!”

The experience, suit quality and price overall was outstanding!

“I went to Nathon Kong a month before my wedding, extremely stressed since I haven’t found any tuxedo that would fit me properly. Nathon reassured me that everything will be perfect and indeed it was. Got my suit within two weeks, went for my first fitting and the suit was perfectly fitted !! Quality was outstanding, I would recommend going with the Cerruti or even Zegna quality as it makes a big difference!! The experience, suit quality and price overall was outstanding! Thanks Nathon and the entire team for making me the most amazing suit possible!!”

2. Pietro Mucci Bespoke tailor and shirt maker

Address: 630 Rue St-Paul Ouest

Phone: +1 514-389-3602
Business hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 9 AM – 7 PM
  • Saturday: 9 AM – 3 PM
  • Sunday: Closed

Website

Pietro Mucci is very intentional in how he operates. With more than 35 years of tailoring experience, he stays closely involved at every stage, from the first conversation to the final fitting.

We spoke to a lot of his past customers, and the same themes came up repeatedly: precision, patience, and a serious eye for detail.

What he does best is fully bespoke and formal suits. The tailoring is refined and modern but not trend-driven. 

He’s always about making customers look polished and confident rather than making a loud fashion statement.

We also loved the fabric selection. The atelier works with top Italian mills like Ermenegildo Zegna, Vitale Barberis Canonico, Pacenza, and more. 

Many people actually said the uniqueness of the fabrics is a major reason they chose Pietro Mucci in the first place. 

The mobile, concierge-style service is also a standout feature. Fittings and consultations happen at home or at the office, which suits clients with demanding schedules.

However, that same service model does come with limits. There is no casual browsing and no quick stop for last-minute alterations. Everything runs by appointment here.

Pros

  • Very involved master tailor
  • Strong expertise in classic bespoke tailoring
  • High-quality Italian fabrics
  • Concierge, mobile service
  • Very personalised

Cons

  • Less flexibility for last-minute needs

I can’t wait to order my next suit with them

“I got married in Greece last September. I had the pleasure of working with Pietro and his son Lance to get me looking the best i’ve ever looked for my special day. They made me a bespoke linen suit with the custom embroidered touches exactly the way i wanted. The process was seamless, they even came to see me at work late at night to tailor me because they are dedicated to their clients. I cant wait to order my next suit with them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND”

Pietro is the best in the business!

“Pietro is the best in the business! He made me my tux for my wedding. You can tell that he cares so much about what he does with his attention to detail and the best in class service he provides. The quality is also top notch and he truly understands the way a suit or tux should fit. 5 stars!”

3. SUITABLEE

Phone: +1 438-813-0899
Business hours:

  • Monday: Closed
  • Tuesday to Wednesday: 11 AM – 6 PM
  • Thursday to Friday: 11 AM – 8 PM
  • Saturday: 10 AM – 6 PM
  • Sunday: 10 AM – 5 PM

Website

SUITABLEE is strongest in custom wedding suits and tuxedos. Their overall style leans classic with a modern edge.

Their work emphasises clean lines, sharp fits, and quality wool fabrics sourced from well-known mills in the UK, Italy, and Australia.

We learned that the customers’ experience depends on the stylist. They usually make the process smooth and enjoyable. 

Several customers mentioned feeling guided rather than overwhelmed, especially when it comes to choosing fabrics, cuts, and design details. 

Attention to detail came up often, along with a willingness to work around tight deadlines.

The streamlined process can be a hit-or-miss, though. SUITABLEE cuts down the usual custom-suit marathon of fittings and appointments by handling most decisions in one visit or partly online. That works well for busy people.

Where things get weaker is consistency, because not every reported appointment felt premium. 

One person described a rushed consultation and even pressure to pay in full before fully reviewing details. 

Pros

  • Strong focus on wedding suits and tuxedos
  • Clean and modern tailoring style
  • High level of customisation
  • Stylist’s guidance
  • Streamlined process
  • Reliable fit and quality

Cons

  • A report about a rushed consultation

Committed to providing the best possible suit to meet my needs

“After my best friend was thrilled with the results of his tailor-made Suitablee wedding suit, I bought mine there too. The results were fantastic. Staff was top-tier, answered every question, and committed to providing the best possible suit to meet my needs. Highly recommend!”

Andre Szydlowski, Google review

The suit is impeccable and extreamy comfortable

“I approached Suitablee for a tailor made suit for my wedding in October. JS was extremely professional and very nice to deal with. He had some great advice and compleatly set my mind at ease. The suit is impeccable and extreamy comfortable to where for a full day of ceremonies and dancing. I wouldn’t think twice about going back to Suitablee for my future tailor made needs.”

4. Tailleur prestige

Address: 625 Rue Sainte-Catherine O

Phone: +1 438-500-1642
Business hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 11 AM – 6 PM
  • Saturday: 12:30 PM – 5 PM
  • Sunday: Closed

Website

Tailleu Prestige always prioritises precision, structure, and getting the fit just right. Their focus is on custom clothing for both men and women. We love that they do suits, tuxedos, and coats. Even winterwear can be custom-made by them.

The thing that stood out is how much care goes into the fit. Multiple fittings are a key part of their process. 

They really make sure the shoulders, chest, waist, and trouser breaks are adjusted until the garment fits perfectly.

From what customers report, when things go smoothly, the results are impressive. One client had a wedding suit and custom shirts made here. Every piece came out looking sharp and feeling comfortable.

The process isn’t just about measurements either. A specialist guides clients through fabric choices, style, and subtle adjustments.

However, our team wasn’t confident enough about them when it came to turnaround time. Some clients ran into delays, with garments taking weeks longer than promised.

Pros

  • Precision tailoring
  • Multiple fittings
  • Custom clothing variety
  • Structured and polished silhouettes
  • Specialist advisors

Cons

  • Reports of delayed turnaround

The tailor demonstrated exceptional professionalism, patience, and attention to detail

“I had my wedding suit and several custom shirts tailored here, and the results were absolutely stunning. From the very first appointment, the tailor demonstrated exceptional professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. He took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and guided me with expert advice throughout the entire process…”

They were very polite and did a great job with my suit and pants 

“I had a wedding to attend and needless to say I waited until the last minute to get my tailoring done. Not being familiar with any tailors around and who is good and who is not, I tried my luck with this team. I was not disappointed. They were very polite and did a great job with my suit and pants despite the limited time frame I needed the job done by. The professionalism of the work was very apparent. I am happy to say, if ever I am needing any tailoring again I will 100% come back here. Thanks for the job well done! Amazing work”

5. Battaglia & Aly

Address: 6515 Boul. Saint-Laurent

Phone: +1 514-940-1008
Business hours:

  • Monday: Closed
  • Tuesday to Saturday: 10 AM – 5 PM
  • Sunday: Closed

Website

What makes Battaglia & Aly stand out to us is how they create personalised patterns for each client instead of adjusting standard templates. 

They also offer a strong selection of European fabrics, which gives their suits a more refined feel compared to typical off-the-rack options.

They always make sure their customers have a great experience. First-time clients mentioned that they were also being educated because the team explained fabrics, lapel styles, and fit details.

Sandro, the master tailor, was mentioned a lot in feedback. He’s attentive, flexible, and good at helping refine ideas.

In one case, someone went in wanting something different from his usual wardrobe and ended up choosing a bold burgundy fabric with a classic notch lapel.

That shows they’re comfortable helping clients step slightly outside their comfort zone while still keeping things tasteful.

We also appreciate that they can work within tight timelines and handle alterations for existing pieces.

One weak area we noticed is the lack of pricing transparency. There’s limited upfront pricing information, which makes them unideal for those who are planning their budget ahead.

Pros

  • Fully personalised patterns
  • High-quality European fabrics
  • Excellent customer experience
  • Flexible and helpful 
  • Works well under tight timelines
  • Handles alterations in existing pieces

Cons

  • Limited upfront pricing

Once you walk in, you’re walking out confident!

“Sandro is truly one of a kind. His passion, attention to detail, and genuine care make the experience unforgettable. The suit he created for my wedding fits perfectly and feels incredible! Picking a suit from just a fabric, my wedding suit reflects me to the tee. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for custom tailoring. Once you walk in, you’re walking out confident!”

Alexander Vanier, Google review

I couldn’t be happier with the result

“This was my first experience getting a custom-fitted suit, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. The owners were incredibly welcoming and professional, guiding me through the entire process to ensure I was completely satisfied. I’ve also relied on their services to adjust some existing pieces in my wardrobe, and once again, they exceeded my expectations.”
