Check out Sam's Tailor from Hong Kong. You can find him on Instagram and TikTok. I visited him about 3 years ago when in HK, but had the following jacket made back in December after going through virtual consultations.

You can stay conservative or go crazy. He definitely caters to his clients with regards to going over the top with some stuff. As far as quality goes, the suits are better than anything you'd buy off the rack or the M2M options like Indochino. The attention to detail like functional and stacked buttons on the cuffs, accent stitching, pick or deep pressed stitching, and multitude of lining options are differentiators in my experience with other SE Asian tailors.

The quality of the fabric is great and has held up to life on the road; definitely softer than other custom stuff I had made in SE Asia. Not sure on all of his different fabric brands as he has mountains of swatches when I visited in person. I know he's used Ermenegildo Zenga and Vitale Barberis for some clients. If there is a specific brand you're looking for, I'm sure he can get his hands on it.

Not sure but following

What city

I've had great success with Enzo. They're in a few cities

Boston and/or dc

Not sure but I’m guessing that it’s in line with nyc bespoke shops ($2k+ for a suit)

If you buy at Nordstrom’s they’ll tailor it for you

My bonobos jackets have been fantastic

Brooks Brothers

TOM FORD

SEEKING OPINIONS & FEEDBACK: I love the honest & practical discussions here, where people can freely identify things that are going on & seek guidance.

Wondering whether anybody’d be interested in some kind of more purposeful community- i.e., gathering w/fellow lawyers to pursue some specific mental health & well-being goals? We’d provide some counseling/coaching type content, in bite sized chunks, but have regular discussions to connect & encourage one another on applying the content IRL.
