I was lucky to get two years ago a great price on a tailored suits with an extra pair of pants from Tai Pan Row.

I will be in Hong Kong between December 15th to February 8th and looking to buy some tailored shirts (3-4).

I was considering buying from Ww Chan. What is the starting price range for Ww Chan?

What type of shirt can I expect to get for 400-500 per shirt in Hong Kong these days?

I have a budget of 4500 HKD on clothes this time, and any money left over, I will use it for my next visit to Hong Kong.

I was thinking of spending around 2000 HKD on some tailored shirts to use for Uni.

It seems like prices have gone up the past two years. Will check with locals in Hong Kong to find a tailor. Remember seeing couple shirt tailors in CWB. Might check those stores again.

jantzen can make you shirts at 390 each I believe. I think peter lee starts at 580. Believe ww chan starts around 1200, not totally sure about that though.

Thank you for the help. I looked around and those are the prices I was quoted as well. I might consider Baroon Kay, or Jimmy Chen.

Have you had any experience with Peter Lee before?

Most of the tailors mentioned here seem to have a large expat and non-HK buyers, might try to seek out some information from locals about tailors.

I started a thread with my experiences from Jantzen, William Cheng, and Peter Lee. Most of my local coworkers don't get their stuff tailored. In fact, one of them asked me where to go!
