That fabric store was massive. My wife is a sewing freak. She would have stayed in that store for a month.

[@jacklengfavor]

I think your wife should make her own business. There are not so much good tailor now. so sad... Great brands always started from a good tailor.haha

[@georgevavoulis4758]

Better to just make all your own clothes

[@Mr-R.R.]

He called Armani and Gucci crap! I love this guy!

[@thefacelessman7759]

+Son of Everything DC & Marvel Because they are, all these "Amazing" companies are known because of a flagship product. For instance Armani is known for Giorgio Armani italian made suits but most of the suits you get off the rack that are Armani are chinese made, the watches are crap; they run on batteries. I could go on and on, but hopefully you get the idea. It's just business.

[@Mr-R.R.]

+The Faceless Man lol! You didn't have to lecture me I already knew all of that plus I was agreeing with him.

[@itsmorty788]

As a Chinese I have to say, your pronunciation is spot on!!! Very good!

[@tyfowler3155]

Haha, not really. The tones were off, which is a common problem for people learning Chinese. Chinese people will actually mock you sometimes and ask you a question with every word ending in the 4th tone, because it's a common mistake made by foreigners. People learning Chinese - the tones are the most important part - don't leave it for later. Memorize the tones for every word, even if you have to go way slower. Chinese is a tonal language, so for example: "bi" (3rd tone) means "pen", but "bi" (first tone) means "cunt". Haha, not kidding. Learn the tones!!!

[@MrSpartanspud]

A not Chinese guy lecturing a Chinese guy on whether or not a third party's Mandarin was good. Pretty based.

[@johnkaimins9998]

I was in Shenzhen last week, and had a suit made at this place - AMAZING - the price was great & the quality was really quite good! - I will be going back!

[@gr8o2h2o]

One thing I do remember when looking at fabric in China is the silk. I have not found silk quality here in the US that rivals Chinese silk. If you have a woman you want to make a silk dress for, it is over the top there and if you let some one local there negotiate, it is obscene how low the price can be for unbelievable quality.

[@OrchidPurple420]

One of the best

[@BackwoodsBushcraft]

Cool video man, was nice to watch. Funny to me as someone from a tailoring background that you choose a black suit and a shirt with a pocket. Shirts with pockets are seen as (blue collar) workwear and black suits are basically funerals or restaurant/hotel staff etc. attire. Not criticizing, you should wear what you like, that's the most important.

[@Michael_Lak]

What colour should I get?

[@vyepez500]

Michael Lakoudis I find Navy Color is pretty nice for a not so formal event or reunion

[@ElectricInevitability]

Another tip when wearing a suit correctly... Never button all the buttons... Always leave the bottom one unbuttoned. It's a class thing apparently and became vogue when one of the English King's got fat and couldn't button his bottom button so all the court copied him 😂😊😘😅🤣

[@ncr004]

He is a blue collar lol

[@rtlinson]

[@Pwecko]

Very interesting. I've just watched a few of your videos. Shenzhen reminds me of Hong Kong in the 80s. I assume Luo Hu is the same as Lo Wu in Cantonese. I remember seeing it on the map at the edge of the New Territories. I never went to China by train. I took the ferry to Guangzhou with my Chinese girlfriend (later my wife) in 1984 to see her Grandmother. That was a weird experience. I am 6'6" tall, which means I stand out in most places, but in China I was a real attraction. When my girlfriend left me on the street to go and get her grandmother, one young woman came up to me and started to talk to me (to practise her English, no doubt), while also eating fried rice from a polystyrene takeaway box. It wasn't very pleasant having someone spitting bits of rice at me. It was even less pleasant when a crowd of at least 200 crowded round to listen in. China seems a lot more sophisticated now. I like your videos. Keep up the good work.

[@Imightberiding]

@serpentza I enjoy your videos very much. You allow me to live vicariously through you & revisit my fond memories of traveling to Hong Kong & Shenzen a couple times while my ex-wife was there on business. Thanks for this video. Last time I was in Shenzen, none of those buildings were there. Nothing but a small road leading away from the train station/border crossing. Construction was madly underway but it was just the start. I think maybe that building with the round top that we got a glimpse of was there, but other than that it was like a third world country with little open shops & stands on either side of the road. Little brick, wood & tin shanties that people lived in along the way. It was like a slum with workers living in squalor while huge towers were about to spring from a few foundations in the ground. I remember a lovely park with a small lake a little way down & to the left if you were walking north away from the train station. Is that park still there? Oh yes, almost forgot to say when this was. It was not too terribly long ago. 1996 first visit & 1997 just after Hong Kong's turn over to China was the last visit. It is mind boggling to see how big & modern this city has become in just a couple decades. It really felt as though I had traveled back in time to China of the past compared to what Hong Kong was at the time. Some day if I am fortunate enough, I will return. I would love to live in Hong Kong. Maybe Stanley or the Mid-Levels, but It is a dream as I have no idea what I would do for work & it is extremely expensive now. Thanks again, cheers! I'm from Canada but at the time, lived in the USA when I visited there. Looking forward to your re-visit video of that area.

Would love a tailor made suit as I'm very tall (6'6") they are far too expensive here in the UK. I wish it was like when my parents and grandparents were young 60s and 40s as there were loads of little tailor shops that the working class could afford.

[@alanfalleur6550]

James Wang I understand, I usually associate them with movies set in China during the 20s to 40s, like "Lust, Caution" by Ang Lee. I think it has to do with my love of film noir. I don't much care for the earlier styles of Chinese clothes, the styles before the Republican Period, or large flowing kimonos like what shrine maidens wear in Japan.

I had it delivered to my place of address in Shandong, Northern China. I won't lie, that did get me a bit worried but everything worked according to plan. Good guy, thanks for the recommendation!

Excellent price for a suit dude well done. I found a tailor in china in Shanghai near my University. Little hole in the wall place where I got tons of stuff tailored very quickly for almost nothing; I was floored how cheap it was. Getting 4 pairs of pants, 3 jackets and a few shirts made cost my about the same as getting 1 thing tailored here in America.

MrApplewine no pocket here. Actually usually bespoke shirts are sans pocket and placket... at least here in the USA.

[@wingedtoast7495]

My preference on pockets usually depends on what the shirt's for; I'll avoid pockets on strictly dress shirts, work shirts would have pockets though.

[@savioalves1234]

yeahhh, i hate pockets on my shirts!

[@illiminatieoverlordgurglek140]

Depends on the purpose of the shirt. If it's for work you can have a pocket. If it's for more formal/non-work related use then a pocket is a bit of a faux pas. At least here in the Netherlands it is. Kind of like a black suite only being for funerals and waiters. How your belt should match the colour of your shoes(which is basically always black, because brown shoes are also considered a bit of a Faux Pas). And the tip of your tie should always be on your belt-buckle. To short is called a 'Bus driver' and too long is referred to as 'a Trump' or 'a president' recently.(Though that's really just among my direct peers). And of course you always leave the bottom button on your jacket undone.(Because some English King once got so fat that the bottom button on his jacket popped off and everyone promptly undid theirs to save the king some embarrassment. After which it became fashion.)

[@fatboy19831]

It is about the same price in Thailand. The quality is flawless. I am 6.5 feet tall 205 pounds. I had one silk dress suite and a wool gray business suits with 2 pants, 2 high quality shirts and two silk ties for $350 US. Everything was beautiful. I was dealing with a NON THIA SALESMAN. Big mistake. I will never do that again. Very slick guy who kept trying to up the price. It only took 3 days for the suites to be made. The final fitting was in my hotel room. When I went to pick up the suites before my flight. At the last minute they bagged them up for me. They took out the shirts and ties. Going to a non english speaking Thai tailor I would have received an even better price with no trickery. Most likely even better quality with slightly longer wait time.

[@jackyaodengyu]

I think this is Luohu Shangmao city, I've heard about it. And some of my clients from Europe even made suits there. Dude, you are really a Shenzhener, those info is really helpful for those coming to SHENZHEN.

[@pssst3]

You got a good deal all that for ~310USD. It would be 2-3x in the states for one tailored suit. I completely understand what you mean about fabric. All I care about is that it doesn't bag, scratch or itch, black is always my first choice.

[@thekillercrab]

I've always found it so strange how there is so much non-Chinese text in China.. must be pretty annoying for the Chinese to read everything as foreign

[@ian-c.01]

It's only the Western brands that are written in Western text so it's accepted. In the tourist areas most shops will have Western text alongside Chinese text to appeal to both.

[@SiMahDan]

The Taylor it made the aforementioned suit lived on the 7th floor of a 7-story building very old with no elevator and no lights in the stairwell he lived in a messy apartment. The streets had been torn up and it was all dirt because they were getting ready to demolish all the buildings in that sector to put up new high-rises. It was some friend of the family. But he has made a beautiful suit.

[@boydbros.3659]

approximately $300 US ... about average here in the US for an average suit NOT tailor made. Smoking' deal.

[@PrimedNI]

that was for 2 suits and a shirt, the price for a suit on its own was about 100$

[@psmith85channel5]

Pretty cool. When buying any product or raw material at a source point you're going to save tons, often 90% or more. Rest gets added by various middlemen, shippers wholesalers distributors retailers etc. If it's $325 there I wouldn't be surprised if same quality would go for $1000-1500+ in Western retail shop. Clothing has some of highest mark-up of all goods.

[@LokiCDK]

So if I ever spend 10 days in or around Shenzhen, I can get a really nice suit and look as sharp as Winston. :D And you're absolutely right about those dresses.

[@davidmachemer1015]

During my nearly two decades in China, I must have had four suits tailor made. Every one of them was of excellent workmanship. The last time, I asked them to make the trousers bigger than my current size, and when they accidentally made them too small, they made me a second pair for free! My wife would buy fabric and design her own clothes and get them tailor made, and they were also very well done.

[@LordSillyBottom]

If anyone is interested, I purchased a suit from this store back in mid-2017 whilst I was in China. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, the suit I purchased is of fantastic quality, and it didn't break the bank either. I'm thinking of sending my meaurements over to the owner so I can ordered another one.

Hong Kong is known for its hand tailored affordable suits. Leather jackets are also affordable in Hong Kong. My ex was there on liberty port in the USNavy he got measured and suit done in 24 hours as well as any alterations needed like hemming the slacks and alter the collared dress shirts.

[@wadysawkostrzewski8557]

"...rush jobs are never good..." I had formal beach trousers (like for wedding) tailored in one day at Bangkok's hotel were I stayed. It was 20 years back and I still have those. I did payed 50 bats then which was bargain. This trousers are solid made and I'm happy to have them. So not every time rush job is bad one.

[@cyzhouhk]

I remember my mum getting something made from a shop like this in Hong Kong. There are many tailors and barbers from shanghai in Hong Kong. Another way to get a bargain, is if the tailor is actually from Shanghai, you talk to them in shanghainese, they won’t rip you off that way because they think of you as one of them.

[@johnomirth]

I got stuck in a fabric store with my wife in Shenzhen. I finally sat down and told her to do her thing while I waited. It is amazing how women love that sort of thing. BTW, why always black suits? A light colored fabric designed for the tropics would seem appropriate as well, and more comfortable. Of course my fashion sense is nil, so maybe that would be a faux pas, or wouldn't be the image you are trying to project.

[@Frederic_Aguilar]

Hi everybody. I just went there for a tailor made suit and it seems to be really a good deal, thank you. You have made a mistake on the name of the shop. It's 上海新时代 （Shànghǎi xīn shídài，Shangai New Era). The guy asked me why people were keeping asking him for that Shanghai New Century and I told him why.

This is the address, i hope it's correct both in English and Mandarin. 168 Dongmen Lu, near Zhongshan Dong Er Lu 东门路168号， 近中山东二路 I got mine for 750 RMB and i got jacket, pants, vest and a shirt.

[@MrApplewine]

Are these suits made using premium Italian fabrics, full canvas floating, horse hair and all that fancy stuff for that price?

[@dylanbigg8288]

It is very unlikely that they are canvassed. They could absolutely use high quality fabric - that's not where most of the price in a good suit lies.

[@christianjlevesque]

I had a cashmere Peacoat custom made here in Montreal for about 700CAD. The price difference if it were just plain wool was barely 100CAD less. So indeed, the fabric counts for a lot less than one would think. And custom is the way to go: much better fit, higher quality, your choice of fabric, for a just a bit more than a ready-to-wear piece of crap that needs to be fitted by... wait for it... a tailor! Oh, the irony.

[@praeceptor]

It does not really go well when you compare a densely populated urban area with an entire country. For example Berlin has 73 % of the New York City area and you can get across, i.e. from Wannsee to Ahrensfelde, a distance of approx. 34 km / 21 miles, for 2.70 Euros / 2.88 USD. In rural areas outside of transport associations the price structure of course is different.

Last weekend tried the same in Shanghai: summer suit 750 and three shirts 500. Asked for Daniel Craig style grey, out comes the lookbook and she picked exactly what I wanted. Then tried a linen blazer at 580. Amazing but too tight so I will wait for the suit to check the quality. Then I can order other colours and get them sent. Seems a steal but I will go back and fetch them in a week. The price is the same as an HLA off the rack. If the suit is good I will never get a rack suit again. At this price, it is a joke. The fit and quality is a no brainer based on the samples I saw. I had no idea how good this would be..

Hi Serpentza. Nice videos man, the bikes, scams and everything...I enjoy watching the stuff.
