After finding recent success with custom shirts, I decided it was time to enter the (dangerous) world of mail-order custom suits. Searching back through the SF archives reveals dire warnings and a few select experiences (far fewer than the ubiquitous online shirt threads). I've listed some of the more popular tailors below. If you know of ANY OTHERS, please post a link. I'll add it to this top thread (for future searchers) if there are enough additions. Popular Online Tailors Ravis Tailor / My Custom Tailor / My Suit Shop (Bangkok, Thailand): Reviews, one and two. Baron Boutique (Kathmandu, Nepal): Reviews, one and two. Other Online Tailors Online Suits (Bangkok, Thailand) New International Boutique House (Bangkok, Thailand) Traveling Tailors My Tailor (Hong Kong) W.W. Chan (Hong Kong) As far as Ravi goes, yes, they're all channels to the same company (with minimal pricing and selection variation). I've ordered a pair of slacks from here -- perfect fit, cheap fabric, good construction. Although, given the more recent positive reviews from Baron, I think my next order may come from there. Any other suggestions? And just to get it out of the way -- if you're wealthy, travel to the location or use a local tailor. If you can be fit by off-the-rack stuff, buy it on sale and have it altered. Sight unseen tailoring is only for those of us who are poor and oddly shaped!
