Hi Sifus,

I need to alter the sleeve of my jacket (coat). Any recommendation of tailor in KL or PJ area? Preferably reasonable price.

So the saying is right, Gals spend rm1o for a rm20 worth of something she dont need, while guys spend rm20 for a rm10 of something he needs. like a boss

And im pircturing this, me and my mom rushing into a 90% clearance sale warring with 3000 other crazy woman while my father walks peacefully into a montblanc shop, pays thousands for a freakin pen!!! and walks out queitly... shakehead.gif

U wanted to do what to them? Shorten it?

Its... messy... just to share my experience

With one of my suits, they mess up the buttons (I wanted slight overlapping, they didnt) so the boss came and offered to re-do the entire sleeve for me. You just cant just "fix" the button holes.

Um... we do need a pen.

We spend 1k for a shoe we wear, compared to a girl who spends RM100 for 10 shoes which she forgot she had.. tongue.gif

yes i know...but i'll give it a try...the sleeve is too long...but the damn buttonholes made them impossible to hem the sleeve...only way is to alter from the shoulder...tailor was not willing to do it...said that my suit was the correct length rolleyes.gif when its already reaching the base of my thumb...i insisted...will know the results next thursday...fingers crossed

I think you can always go and chit chat with the tailor and understand more about them before you decide to let them tailor or not
