George Zimmer, the ousted founder of retail chain Men’s Warehouse, just announced a new way to become a stylish hermit: on-demand tailors who can zip over to your home or office and tweak ill-fitting garments.

His new project, zTailors, works like this: Customers use the website or app to request a house call from a tailor with at least five years of experience. After a complimentary fitting, altered clothes will be returned within a week.
