I'm going to be in Hong Kong early Dec for a few days and want to get a few tailored shirts made. Which tailors would you guys recommend? In the past (7 years ago) I've used Jantzen and got good results, but I'm not sure what the latest verdict is with all these tailors.

I'm looking at $50 - $120 price range per shirt.

Thanks!

Any recommendations for good quality & reasonably priced accessories? Leather belt (~$50), simple sterling cufflinks (~$10-20)?

Where do you get the fabric ?


I brought it when I was a student using student accounts. This had been sitting on the shelf for many years.

New unfunded liabilities - Dormeuil "Royal Opera" wool/silk/chasmere charcoal chalkstripe 10oz ; Moxon Lumbs Golden Bale black fancy chalkstripe 10oz

These two fabrics has the English feel, rich in hand and surprising no luxurious feel, beautiful colour with "quasi-Italian" sheen.



@chobochobo @hifilover

What's so funny? Thats the good bit when you attended resistant material technology for O and A level where the school will have special account and price for students.
