I got my shirt ruined by a seamtress who assured me it would be alright if I had the shirt sleeve shortened without moving the gauntlet. I was hesitant that it might come out bad but she told me to 'trust her' and now the shirt looks so weird with such a short gauntlet. Lesson learned.

You kid, but I did get bespoke shirts made for $7.50 including the cotton. Of course this was in Pakistan 2 yrs ago and the plane ride alone in coach is about $2K. But if you happen to be there, why not?

I think they did a decent job. Not great, but fit is better than the baggy s**t I have boought for 10 times as much in the US. When I get around to it, I will post pics.
