Who is your favorite tailor in Thailand or India? Thinking about more custom shirts
Being a tall guy and having to wear suits every day to work (i work for a consulting company/law firm/venture fund in one), lets just say most shirts at retail stores are not cutting it for me. Plus I am NOT paying $120 per shirt, paying retail to me is a sin!!! Plus most don't fit well anyway.

That said, I have a tailor in Thailand (Bobby at Raja's Fashions) who makes very good custom dress shirts for about $30 shipped from higher end material (he does suits and etc. but I never ordered those). Shirt are very nice, but it takes him forever to get stuff done. Between the time I get material samples and the final product - about 3 months.

Anyone could suggest other tailors you order your dress shirts from?
