The Good Stuff
Tailoring
An in-store tailor can handle alterations and made-to-measure adjustments.
Organisation
One customer found the store clean and well organised, with sizes available during a busy visit.
Durability
One family reported that uniforms bought two years earlier lasted throughout the school year.
Tips for a Better Visit
Visit off-peak. Try a quieter time: one review specifically recommends avoiding the store when it is very busy.
Allow time. Build in extra time for billing and collection; an appointment did not prevent a wait of more than an hour.
Check items. Inspect shirts and stitching before leaving, as a customer found loose threads on all six shirts checked in-store.
Confirm stock. Check availability before travelling, but be aware that phone responses have been unreliable for some customers.
Check sizing. Compare the tried-on size with the supplied item carefully, since one review says trial and sold sizes differed.

The Bottom Line
Threads Time Square Centre is a school-uniform shop in Al Quoz, mainly used by families buying children’s school clothes and accessories. You can try sizes before purchasing, arrange alterations with the in-store tailor, and buy items such as school shirts, polo T-shirts, trousers, ties, scarves and belts. The fitting setup is a genuine strength: reviews describe it as useful for identifying the right fit, while others say staff took care with children’s sizing.
The experience can be smooth when the store is not too busy. Customers have described quick billing, an organised shop and helpful guidance, but peak-season visits are a different story. Reviews mention token systems, appointment confusion and waits of more than an hour, including one reported two-hour wait.
Calling ahead may not solve the problem either, as several customers say repeated calls went unanswered. Quality is the main caution. Parents report loose threads after washing, a small hole in a shirt, buttons coming off on first use and thin PE-trouser material.
Prices are also repeatedly described as high for the quality, and stock gaps have affected essentials such as belts and blazers. Check every item and size before leaving, and allow plenty of time during rush periods.
