ahhh nvm... went to the shop at sunway pyramid. excellent service as usual.
total damages: rm 105 for altering 2 tees & 2 shirts. adjust length of sleeves, altering a slim fit cut for the shoulder and body.
overall, worth it, i would say.

RM65

After the alter, does the jeans still have a nice shape? Good fit? Cos it's like changing the jeans completely...

pricey tho,

I did mine for only RM36 including waist width, length and ankle width at Subang Jaya.

I can't tell exactly where is the location. Firstly, lots of people go there and it takes weeks to finish mine.

I don't want to recommend too many people to that location to sabotage my period of time.

Secondly, that shop doesn't have a name as that place is kinda old.

i want to alter a size L dress shirt to a size M. should be okay if i bring my size M shirt to the tailor and let them copy the measurements right? or better let them take my measurements (is one way more expensive than the other?)

also, if it's just a small shophouse tailor, will it matter?

You guys should try to go for immigrant tailors. There's a tailor near my house whose from Bangladesh. I often send my clothes for him to altar, whether it is jeans,pants or shirt. It often cost me <RM10, and I'm quite satisfied with the outcome as well.

how to find these tailors?
Anywhere in particular you know of a good immigrant tailor?
may wanna try out first using a random piece of attire.

which tailor bro? RM 65 is quite costly actually..

That tailor is in USJ area, not sure about the address though.

please tell me ur from subang. where is the place?

any nice place to alter the size of shirts?

Hello,

It's really hard to find a shirt with a good fit.
It's either to baggy on the waist and nice on the shoulders or vise versa.

I decided to go for those that goes with the shoulders but are a little baggy at the waist.

I understand that these shirts can be altered to make the tucking in a lil more pleasing to the eyes.

Question is,
How many people here have done it?

For those that have, any ideas on good tailors to get them altered??
And how much would they charge per alteration.

I stay in the Klang Valley so tailors around these areas should be good.

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks.
