I have been wearing custom-made suits since I graduated college and have tried several custom tailors. I have found Mr. Kelly and his team at La Rukico to be the most professional of all and best tailor in nyc. I am always very pleased with their fine work and attention to detail. The materials they show me are first rate. I would recommend that anybody who wants to look good in a suit or shirt see Mr. Kelly.

I've spent years buying suits at Barney's, Brooks Brothers and Neiman Marcus, having them tailored and always being disappointed. I will never do so again. For less money, Mr. Kelly provides finer materials and superior craftsmanship. The suits look and feel better than anything from Hickey Freeman, Purple Label or Armani. There truly is no substitute for a suit hand tailored for your body.
Pros: Excellent tailoring and limitless options
Cons: None.

Message From : A Tailor with Every Stitch by Dellnj30

They say clothes makes the man , well then Mr.Kelly must be the Hephaestus of cloth and twine, i must say never have i had a more pleasant , customer experience and equal only to the fine work and design of my suit. Mr.Kelly Works with you on each and every layer of picking what works for you, while giving you the ability to find your own feel and style.
I've often felt that the lack of customer care and satisfaction is an art lost to the modern day consumer, a personal touch of making the client feel that his/her business isn't as nearly important as their satisfaction.
In all reality i read a post here in regard to the 3 year old shirt, well lets be honest that's not being very realistic. What business would redeem a 3 Year old shirt or a 3 year old Anything. But i digress, Mr.Kelly thank you for keeping your are art and Mastering your craft. i look forward to returning i would highly recommend you to anyone.

Kelly:

I want to take the time to let you know how much I appreciate finding your company. At 6'5" and a 39" sleeve length, it is impossible for me to buy off the rack.... And when I did buy off the rack, I over paid and ended up with a suit that did not fit.... If the jacket was close to fitting me, the slacks looked awful.... in addition to the poor fit, the fabric was not even close to the quality that I get from you.

The quality of fabric you sell is far superior to that offered by even high end designers.... To think that I can buy a suit from you that fits me perfectly at 1/2 the price of an off the rack suit is pretty funny. A lot of people have no idea how much they are missing.... one more thing... I have seen ads claiming better prices..... but after due diligence, the fabrics are knock off, polyester like blends.

So far I have at least 15 suits made by you..... more to follow!

Thanks again

Dear Kelly:

There is definitively no comparison in terms of quality, value, and attention to detail for both suits and shirts -- buying off the rack is history!!

Message From : Bob Goodman

All I can say is how pleased I have been with your service and your reliability. The shirts that I have ordered and received, were good quality and I've continued to get good wear from the dozen or more shirts that I have ordered from you.

I also had you measure me up for four very nice suits, that I've received many compliments on. Since I have lost a few pounds, and inches, I may bring my suits to you for an adjustment or two. The quality of the tailoring is very good and it's immediately noticeable that the suit is "tailor made". I take pride in my business of trying to look my best.

Thus far -- I've had a very good experience with LaRukico, and plan to continue my relationship.

Mr.Kelly,

You have my permission to use these comments.

A year-and-a-half ago I was in Manhattan for a few days and visited La Rukico Custom Tailor. I always have trouble buying ready-made suits that fit, so I wanted to have one custom made. From the first contact on the phone through the process of placing my order, Mr. Kelly and his staff were helpful and professional. Mr. Kelly assisted me in selecting fabrics and supervised taking my measurements. My order arrived on time and I have been pleased to wear the suits and shirts for many months now. It has been a pleasure to wear suits that fit properly, and they truly look as good now as when they first arrived. I highly recommend La Rukico Custom Tailors.

Good morning- I am pleased to call Mr. Kelly my friend, and my tailor. Mr. Kelly has been making my suits, my shirts, my overcoats, and my slacks for more years than I can remember. Not only are they made the way I want, they are made to last, and when I need new buttons ,or small things like that, he's always helps me with a smile. I would recommend Mr. Kelly , and his work to anyone. Let me mention that I worked for G.Q. magazine for 10 years.

Mr Kelly,

Thanks for your e-mail requesting comments on the service you provide. I would rather not be identified by name in your promotional materials, but am happy to provide a comment along the following lines (you can shorten it as necessary):

"I've ordered more than a dozen suits from La Rukico over the last ten years, and found the process to be a pleasure. Mr. Kelly has offered excellent advice on fabrics, which are of a much greater variety and generally higher quality than what I could find in the top-end men's stores; the process of fitting and ordering is quick and efficient; the suits have always arrived promptly when promised; and the prices are fair and better than what I had been paying for lesser quality suits in the men's stores. Keep up the good work! "

A long-time customer"

Hope that helps.

Thanks.

Mr Kelly:

Greg Scerba I can't tell you how much I love my suit. The color, quality, fit, and feel are unbelievable. I've received so many comments from both my suit and my shirt (which has my initials on the sleeve). Thanks once again for such a positive experience in finding the perfect and exact suit I was looking for last spring. Hopefully I'll have enough money saved to purchase another suit and possibly some more of your wonderful shirts.

Take care.
