What to check when a Saigon tailor makes your jacket
Most figures reviewers give are for a jacket with trousers rather than a jacket alone. At DUAN Tailor that came to 8,000,000 to 12,000,000 VND (about US$315 to US$472) depending on the fabric, and the shop also makes long coats. One customer paid £75 for a silk and cashmere blazer with trousers at Tâm Silk Tailor after some bargaining. For an overcoat, Usagi charged 5,000,000 VND for a Chesterfield coat.
A structured jacket can still be quick. At Minh Chau Tailor a half-canvas heavy wool blazer took two days and fit after a single fitting. A coat is more work: at Tâm Silk straightforward orders need one or two fittings, while a coat took three or four. If you want a coat, order it at the start of your stay rather than with the rest of a quick order.
The complaints that matter for jackets are about the cut. At Harry Tailor House a jacket made from the customer's own fabric came back with the armholes cut too low, which could not be fixed at that stage. At Phương Giang Tailor a blazer stayed slim and tight at the armpit after the customer asked for a classic fit, and at Tuyển Tailor a jacket was first made in the wrong design and took 2 extra hours to correct. Say clearly which cut you want, and at the fitting lift your arms and check the shoulders and armholes before anything is finished.
