If you live here or travel for leisure or business it might be a good idea to consider custom made suit made for you.
It is very special experience once you find a good shop.
I can tell you a true story of our experience with Sam's Tailor
We were looking for a while through all the available reviews and this shop customers' impressions had indeed been the best.
I believe the price in Hong Kong for a suit can very depending on a shop reputation, on the fabric you choose, the time scale etc. Custom made clothes from Hong Kong is a world known thing to get here - if the shop is right you will get excellent quality for the price you pay for the ready suit back home.
You can have very certain idea of the dream suit, but if you don't - no worries - experienced tailors have a good question list to make sure all details are confirmed with you. First visit will take around 20 minutes (if you don;t take too long choosing fabrics.. though it is wisely divided into price ranges, makes it much easier to make a pick). They will ask you about your budget, tell them slightly less than you are prepared to pay, that's how you get bargain shoulder.
Once they take your measurements, questions will be asked - what kind of collar, how many pockets, what type of button, what colour of lining ets - quickly and efficient.
I was really impressed to see how many celebrities and politicians pictures are there on the wall.. crazy!
Normally there are three visits - order and measurements, fitting and picking up (can be replaced with delivery to your country). If you have just two days in city, tailors are ready to make things quickly.
If you are on a lay back schedule - the whole thing will take around a week.
Quality is more than good, feels like the second skin indeed.
To addition - they make a custom made tag with your name on it, attaching it to the lining.
They do both male and female models and they are really good!
Our price was around HKD4000 (around 500USD)
