Nice to hear you got good experience there.

What exactly is that top grade cotton? Hope you can elaborate.

Also, I'm more concern with the fit, how is the fit, any photo to guide?

How much is the cost to custom tailor a men's working shirt in Ray Tailor in general?

QUOTE(littlebeettle @ May 27 2013, 09:13 AM)
RM15 would be the max that you can anticipate. IT is all depends what are the alteration you required. I ever paid RM5 for just to alter the length of my pants
Couple of ordinary tailor shops out there that you can check on their offers.
I have been going to Ray Tailor in Sg Wang..You may check him out too

BU, you may also try Biwanis, materials to choose and workmanship to do up your shirt
So long that you are customizing your shirt, it is all possible.
It will make to fit you
Ray Tailor Sg Wang
Biwanis..around klang valley would have some outlet

Did you buy from Mark & Spencer? When you buy bigger size suit, will the length of sleeve be too long? If yes, if it possible to be tailored?

QUOTE(netmatrix @ Aug 21 2013, 02:36 AM)
Save up more get a suit from Marks and Spencer at KLCC. Seems like most of the other branches does not keep suits already. Definitely will cost you more than RM1000. Average coat price is RM499-799 and pants is RM199-399. Why choose them? They are the only cheap brand in KL that offers short, regular and tall fitting suits. So you can look at yourself in mirror and see how u want to look. Only very expensive designer brands have such sizes. For me i'm big guy also. My suit size is 46R regular or 46S if i want to look taller. UK 44 is supposed to be XL and 46 is XXL. I saw they have up to 48 which is XXXL. If US size i'm wearing 54R. Never tried 54S before.

Can the sleeve length of RTW suit jacket that comes with non working surgeon cuff buttons be shorten? I found that Marks & Spencer suit has my size but the sleeves are a bit too long

if yes, which recommended tailor that can do a good altering job without damaging the suit?

do you use the cloth from the shop or your own?

QUOTE(Winston.Tan @ Mar 1 2015, 06:18 PM)
I have a Navy Blue suit Page Tailor at Sungai Wang Plaza. MYR 1800 for 1 suit and 2 pants.

The quality is good but because I do not have time for second fitting, the suit is made with only my initial body measurement. The results is still far superior compare to off-the-rack suit with minor shoulder divots.

I am now hunting for my second tailor made suit. Will probably spend 1 to 2 weeks in Bangkok to get it right this time. Planning to visit Rajawongse.

Old Red Eyes may I know how much per shirt and per trouser that Prestige Tailor charge on average?

QUOTE(Old Red Eyes @ Jan 27 2019, 05:39 PM)

Here's a picture of a standard collar, by Prestige Tailor in Seremban 2. This was made from the very same Soktas cloth, at a price less than half that of Jeremy Tok. Daniel has other cloths, too, including some very nice higher-end ones.

He didn't do a fitting shirt for me, per se, but instead made one up. However, when we found there was an issue with the fit, he remade it free of charge. It's very worth noting, too, that this was a one-off, and not a four-shirt minimum like at Jeremy Tok (the last thing I want is more of a bad thing!). I really can't recommend this guy highly enough, especially given my past experiences. He made me a pair of trousers that have impeccable fit, and I'm not the easiest to get right.
