Does anyone know when he will be coming back to Dallas or Houson?

Looking to a couple of suits done.

Probably late April or May.

Yes. It's true tailored clothing. You've got about 10lbs of fudge room before you're screwed

True that. I've got a nice white collared shirt with some A&M details that I'm about 15 lbs too fat to wear.

No

This guy made my pants so tight I could barely get my foot through them.

Yeah the suits I had made were unwearable. The blazer and dress shirts were legit.

The suit he made me was great, as was the shirt.

Did you gain or lose a lot of weight since you were measured?

The only time I've ever had trouble with the fit was when I gained weight. He's usually pretty transparent in that he defaults to making stuff "snug" in a European style. If all you've ever worn is stuff off the rack, which tends to have lots of extra material in places, then the first time you order custom clothing from anywhere it can feel different and snug. I prefer my stuff to not be as fitting as he would typically make it so I simply tell him that I want it with extra room in the area where I want extra room. I've used him for years, I have multiple friends that use him, and all have been repeat customers for a while.

If you're worried about the "snug" thing the first time you meet him, that's why he asks you to wear/bring slacks/shirts/jackets that you currently wear so that he can see how you like them to fit and where you'd like like things adjusted. That makes it a pretty easy process.

I didn't lose wait…all the pants I had sucked. The jeans were unwearable with how baggy they were in weird places. Trashed them immediately. The slacks were ok, a little looser than I'd like but not terrible. Pockets were like 12" deep, though. With the direct to consumer brands that allow customized fit I've found better for cheaper.

Shirts were also ok. Really no issue with them other than they were pretty expensive if you wanted to upgrade material for something that's standard most places like non-iron. So same as above, with options on sites like CT, better materials for far less.

And these are with no weight loss/gain and I gave him multiple chances. Same every time.

I do like the blazer I got from him. The only thing I'd consider ordering again. Even that though I had to fight him to get something fairly plain and not have the inside scream with Aggie fabric and my initials on the sleeve….

No. I've been 175-180lbs for about 10 years.

Very nice man. I'd just recommend to stay away from the blue jeans. They are just weird shaped and it's uncomfortable to sit down.

I have about a dozen suits or sports coats and probably 2-3 dozen dress shirts made by him. I don't buy my suits elsewhere. Does an occasional shirt or suit come in a bit snug, yes. Does he fix it at no charge, of course. Based on the experience one of my friends had, my friend never had custom clothes, and sucked it in while being measured. So his shirts came in snug. Bobby redid the entire set, losing money but making sure my friend was happy. I'll continue to use him every chance I need.
