According to your comment and some recommendation on tripadvisor, I had found Tony in Viet Nam and made suits for my boy friend and dress for me. I met a lady and a girl who gave me good advise for my clothes. When finishing all clothes, We were satisfied because all items were fitted my body perfectly. Quality is also good – reasonable price.
I kept their name card and I will recommend some friend to come there.
Their address is 294 Nguyen Duy Hieu str – Hoi An – Viet Nam.
Email : buiqui_binh@yahoo.com

Thank you so much adam.
Alan

They are located here in Manhattan and I know their website is in progress and hopefully will be up soon. I’ve gotten to know one of the owners and he’s extremely passionate about suits. I can have him get in touch with you for more details. I’m headed tomorrow to pick up my 2nd suit and very excited about it.

Adam

Where are they located? What are their prices like? Thanks!

The place is really the best, its Rajas Fashions. Their address:
Shop No. 1/6 Sukhumvit Soi Nana 4, Opposite Nana Hotel
Bangkok-10110 Thailand
Phone:+66 02-2538279

I hear everyone from the US Embassy uses this place. One day I was in there, some guy from the Canadian Chamber of Commerce came in about Raja’s sponsoring an event for them.
At last check custom shirts were about $36 each and suits ranged from about $275-350. If you’re in Bangkok and have time, its well worth. The gentlemen Bobby who works there is amazing. I got a suit made there years ago and its still held up quite well.

Let me know if you end up getting something done, I’d be curious how it turns out.

A number of friends have recommended the place, I’m told its the place to get things made.

I usually love your posts but I have to agree with Scott on this one. While you may have made the right decision for yourself, these guys don’t seem like they deserve your negative coverage, especially when it looks like you’re basing it on a handful of Yelp reviews.

Anyway, you’re definitely right about great deals on custom suits in Asia. I have friends who swear by the tailor shops in Hoi An, Vietnam.

Tony

Here’s the thing: it’s a big purchase decision right. I went to the store, talked to te employees, researched reviews, and drew upon my past experience. I wish there were some trial offer or “shareware” I could sample before buying. However in this case, it’s a binary decision: buy or not buy.

Based on the evidence I collected, it’s hard to support the purchase decision and if it doesn’t work, there is a big cash downside. Looking at my risk, it seems to suggest staying away. If they had some great special for first time buyers, then I might take a shot!
