Shenzhen Tailor
Hi all,
Looks like I'll be spending some time in Shenzhen in the near future, for a couple weeks. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a mid to high end tailor. Probably won't do any suits (although might consider it), but more likely shirts. An English speaking tailor would be helpful but not 100% necessary. I'll be in Luhou so that would be preferred but elsewhere works as well.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Troy

I can't actually help you with regards to your specific request. But since shirts are relatively cheap in China (150 RMB each?), it might be worth trying a few out. I think quality of material is more of a limitation than the tailoring (for a shirt).

Thanks for the suggestion, which I would agree with except that I'm a bit crunched for time. I'd rather just go to one shop than waste time selecting options, negotiating, and getting measured at multiple shops.
