General tailors in Harris have no particular specialisation. Such tailors make almost any item of clothing that you may desire. You can ask them to stitch a skirt or trouser and the tailor will make it for you. Some tailors stitch clothes for men as well as women. But there are some tailors who make garments only for men or for women. A general tailor is of great help as they also do alteration of oversized clothes and darning work to repair holes or worn areas in fabric. The charge for such work depends on the amount of work done, the fabric on which the repair was done and the threads used for the job.
