It depends...
Try Kings tailor in the financial district. He's a 3rd generation suit maker from Hong Kong. He makes custom suits in house (not sending your measurements to Hong Kong shipping it back) and has a great choice of fabrics
He also does incredible work to tailor your existing suits. He practically re-cut my Roberto Cavalli tux into a slim fitting tuxedo and turned my cuff buttons into functioning buttons.
I also use Nick at Eleganza Tailors. He does a lot of the alterations on high end suits coming from the boutiques on 5th or Madison Ave.
Neither are cheap but these are the types of tailors that give your suit a proper fit. Just make sure to tell them what you are looking for and they will tell you whether its possible - they're tailors, not miracle workers. If your pants are ripping, its probably because they're too tight
