I'm also in need of some new shirts. My current shirts were made in Hong Kong at Ascot Chang tailor and they've used ALUMO 2-ply 120/2 swiss cotton.

Anybody knows if any of those recommended BKK tailors use ALUMO fabric..?

I am always surprised that there are many satisfied customers willing to promote Thai/Indian tailors. I have used 6 over the last 19 years and they have all been poor. I will never use any of them again and buy shirts off the rack in Bangkok and pants and jackets off the rack in Singapore.

There are plenty of charlatains around waiting to pray on tourists, but there are good ones too. Mine is always busy with (mainly) Americans from the nearby embassy and also has numerous photos/business cards/letters from high profile Americans including both presidents Bush.

I know the store that keep a photo of Bush and I am pretty confident that no Bush has ever worn or paid for a suit made up by these tailors, it just doesn't make sense at all. For Christ sake, go to Saville Row or Jermyn Street and you'll get a REAL suit by a REAL tailor. Or why not fly to Italy and get fitted.

I have seen the suits made by these so called Presidential tailors and compared to a REAL suit their work is a laugh, a joke, complete shambles.

....or, along the same lines, stop off in Duabi and buy extremely good quality 100% cotton long/short sleeves at Marks and Sparks and/or Debenhams for about B1900, although this option may not be possible for some in a hurry.
