Does anyone have insight into how the Ascott Chang in NYC compares to the one in HK for pricing and quality?

Also, would Ascott Chang be recommended given other MTM shirting options in the area like Turnbull and Asser?

The prices are lower in HK and on tour than the stores in the US.

I guess everyone has the opinion on shirtmakers but I believe they are pretty good for shirts all around and the best in HK.

I used them in New York for a few shirts. The fit is very good (for me at least). Service was very nice in a Chinese way.

My only negative thoughts were the shirt length was a bit short (I should have requested a long tail) and the buttons were a bit crummy compared to borrellii type buttons. AC is a good value and consistant I would say.

I would heartily recommend them if you live in New York and don't want to deal with geneva's crappy customer service, T&A's prices or a traveling tailor.
