I get my shirts and suits made here by my HK tailor. William Cheng & Son

He comes here a couple of times a year.

Depending on exchange rate shirts approx $50 and suits (inc 2 x pants) $600. I've been buying from him for the past 9 years.

I'll post it when he's on his way out again

I got my last two there too, although I fitted one of their standard sizes so closely they just modified it slightly for me. They'll need taking in soon.
My previous three came from an Indian tailor in Singapore when I was there a few years ago - great fabric - silk and fine wool blend, and one silk and mohair.
Now I've lost some weight I may be able to get into those again.
