With my new Online Marketing Business up and running I need some proper clothes. And what is awesome that Thailand has worlds best tailors. As I’m in Chiang Mai at the moment I’m going to look for the best tailor in Chiang Mai.
How I looked for the best Custom Tailor in Chiang Mai
I asked in some facebook groups and did research on Tripadvisor and Facebook. The best tailor in Chiang Mai at the moment is Tony Tailors in Chiang Mai. Went to the recommended shop and asked simple questions about the materials and the prices. Fabrics with the suits are very important to check when you buy a suit.
- Simple Complete Custom-Made Suit: $125
- High-Quality Complete Custom-Made Suit: $175
- Top-Quality Complete Custom-Made Suit: $399
Let me explain you a little bit about the suit fabrics
Ever heard of Super 100s, 140s, 160s or 180s wools? A lot of people believe the higher the number the better the quality. Its fairer to say the higher the number the more expensive the suit will be. The number refers to the number of times that the worsted wool has been twisted in the process of making it. The higher the number the finer and lighter the cloth will be. I really like the fine quality of the fabrics when they show you the difference. Also they feel very lightweight and are smooth to wear – perfect for hotter climates and summer months abroad.
Meeting the best tailor in Chiang Mai
When you talk with someone that is full of passion when he explains about his tailored suits than you know its not just a normal job. Before I met Tony in Chiang Mai I read myself in on some blogs and guides how to buy a custom suit.
In his explanations and information about the products and fabrics I recognised a lot of what I’ve been reading online. And in my period in hot Melbourne where I was wearing a suit I could now understand better what the differences in quality can do while wearing a suit.
The way he tells, the 17 years of experience & the reviews on all platforms together you can definitely tell that this custom tailor has a sustainable business and delivers high quality. One way to find out if this is my best tailor in Chiang Mai.
