If you are in KL, you may try Pertama Complex. There are few shops could do custom leather products ranging from jacket, shoes and i believe they can do belt too.

Let us know ya..Thx

Yea but to get a really nice tailor made suit that is worth your money, you need around 1200 - 1500 at least.

42 to 38? I think you can pass on the jacket unless you want to risk spending 100 bucks to get a likely ill fitting one.

Actually waste of time and money. The charges is too high that you could probably buy another one from off season stores. The most biggest risk is the whole suit would probably be disassembled and rebuilt back again and the collar, shoulder, chest area are the hardest to alter. You might end up with a dud later. Experienced used suit owners would tell you taking in 4 inches is too much than taking in 1 - 1.5 inch everywhere.

I don't see him any different than any independent tailors that have artist as customers in their resume. If he want to be different he has to make something different. That camo suit jacket that he made with short body could make him famous. He needs something very different to attract new customers. Having artist and celebs is one way. But really putting effort into the design would open roads overseas.

Cheezy marketing skills. laugh.gif He probably is very skilled. But it only shows how good he is at cutting and will make good looking traditional suits. But how about designing? Would he be willing to make weird request from customers? hmm.gif

Thanks for the advice...
Couldn't stop myself from not buying it since it was only USD 20... Guess I'm gonna pass it to my dad or uncle that could for it....
