I agree. To be honest, I have bought many custom suits and shirts. Sometimes I am unhappy with the fitting, but I have never been in a situation where its horrible. If you aren't satisfied on Saville Row, then perhaps you shouldn't try a HK based tailor. As good as they are, I don't think they compare to a $5000 custom suit tailor.

Has anyone used De Luxe Tailor lately? I used them many years ago - and shop was somewhere in Lan Kwai Fong (not street level - but many flights up). I liked them back then, but that was when I was younger and perhaps not so discriminating. Now, when I am older (and supposed to be more distinguished) would they "cut it" (a bit of pun intended)? How would they compare to names such as WW Chan, AMHC, or YMY? I recall I thought that they had a good selection for high quality cloth at good prices - making finished product very good value. Prices may have gone up, and/or what I thought was good then may not look so good to me these days. I am not an expert (at all) on tailors, but living in HK I like to splurge on myself - getting high quality bespoke at prices I can afford - so I would be pleased to have any comments/views/experience on De Luxe from anyone with more of an educated opinion.
