I would be grateful for any info you have on B&T: shirt & suit quality, and pricing. I travel to Korea every now and then, and I have friends there, and I like the work of B&T that I've seen!

This was my first suit with bntailor. I was very impressed with the work.

^^^Honestly, I think that is very well done. What is the cost if you don't mind? If you do, no worries.
And material? You look quite sharp. There are a few points I would make to improve but it is possible those were done on purpose(stylistic differences) as opposed to poor execution.

Thanks! I welcome your suggestions on improving the fit. Sent you a pm re pricing.

Anyone been to Savile row in Gwanghamun recently? I was last there a few years ago. Im leaving soon and would like to get some shirts done. I checked the website and its not working anymore. Apart from there and Goshe any other recommendations for decent dress shirts?

Cheers

XKxRome0ox,

PIcs on the new suit?

 

[XKxRome0ox]

I am getting the suit pants altered here in LA
I am actually quite disappointed with savile row at this point
I had two suits made two years ago and both turned out great
This time I had one suit and two more pants made
I needed to remeasure and I wanted a different fit
The jacket is fine, turned out the way I want it
The pants... all three pairs have some weird issue in the seat of the pants and some in the legs
The fabric was cut unevenly? Stitching uneven? Just does not look pretty back there
I don't know if they are using different people to do the sewing or what but it is quite disappointing
So I am having the suit pants altered to see how it turns out
If it turns out okay, then altering keeping all
If not, I'm going to make a stink and ask mr.choe to make them over

two gray wool pants from savile row
pinned by my alteration tailor here in LA
my suit pants were altered first, turned out fine so i'm keeping them and altering the other pants as well
but i am not happy and i asked that mr.choe give a significant discount on my bro-in-law's suit that is being made there right now
will report on what happens

 

[XKxRome0ox]

the saving grace is that the suit came out very nice
i wore it for the first time yesterday
will try to get a full fit pic later

That's a lot of taking in. Yea, two of my friends that got suits made from SR said the same thing. The jacket fits great, but the pants were too baggy. IMO Hanhs pants are made way better.
