Buying a Custom Tailored Bespoke Suit in Hong Kong(Anthony Bourdain Recommended) 

Carefully watch the part where he pulls his phone out for the time around 3:25. I paused it perfectly and you can see her in his screensaver

Anybody else here after his korean bbq video... trying to catch a glimpse of his ex girl..??? 🤷‍♀️😭😅😅😅

Wish I could get a custom suit from the Chinese Christopher Walken.

Mike I really appreciate how you take the time and effort out of your trips to record so many little details. Still loving your vlogs :)

The suit tailor guy must be Christopher walkens asian cousin. lol

Okay Mike. Let me see the finished product. Where is it? And how much did you pay for it.

3:25 is that Mike girlfriend

I was curious how the suit actually came out!

I once purchased glasses on holiday in Hong Kong. Best customer service I have ever had in my life. They offered me soda and magazines, wifi and television while I waited to have them made. Best pair I have ever owned too.

Dealing with extreme insomnia at the moment. Going through and watching some of these older videos. You are truly awesome to watch :)

Tailor knows his stuff. Notice how he stays away from extremes. He understands current trends but pulls back a little from silly in and out fashions. Slim fit but not undersized, slim trouser but not something that looks like spray on jeans! Balance. Good job chap.

We've been watching Mikey and Strictly for 3+ years but this vid just showed up as a suggestion in youtube and as I checked it, it hit me that this was the very first Mikey video I ever watched - back then in 2016 I was searching for bespoke suit prices in HK. Wow - start of a great journey. Thanks Mike.

I've watched this video severely times Mike as I trained as a Tailor, Seamstress, Corsetier and Haute Couturier. I miss being able to the work so much, watching the choice of fabric, taking measurements, making your toile, then adjusting to make the 2nd toile and then finally sewing the basted garment together, hand finishing and the final press... it's a process that is really special. I really miss being well enough to do the work, the pleasure it gives to people and the art of the finished piece.

They have an in office cat! 13:06

Mike, thanks for sharing your adventures... I don't really know much about you, what you do, and why you share them but I'm subbed and following your adventures! It takes some guts filming people everywhere you run around. Keep up the good work!

OMG - the landscape - soo beautiful...awesome!

Mike, please do daily vlogs! I watched your strictly dumpling videos and I never knew you had a vlog channel. You are my most favorite vlogger and it's so awesome that your a chinese vlogger, I'm chinese too and love all your content and can connect with so many of the things that happen in your videos.

Cat spotted at the tailors! Which makes it seem like they indeed have a nice work environment. No idea how they manage to keep the catfur off everything haha. The bathroom probably has a glass wall to maximise the feeling of space in a relativly small room. Lovely video again!

Who's here looking for Mikey's ex? 😏

you have quickly become my new favorite youtuber. i follow all your channels ! especially beyond science !

03:25 is like an easter egg in an Avengers movie!

The window in the bathroom is so when you take a bath, you can relax and see the view... love that you shared your trip.

fantastic attention to detail from the tailors.thats the way all suits should be made.

No wonder the great nostalgic sounding music on your way to see your girl friend. Gets you in the heart.

Personally, I like the cat walking on the desks in the background 🐱

Well Mike thank you for sharing your experience with us, it's very entertaining and informative

"and a scale just incase you eat too much, and want to make yourself feel bad" 😂😂 hilarious man keep it up

Wow, excellent video man! I could almost envision flying mechs in those scenic shots from your hotel, lol. I can only imagine what it looks like at night... _'BLADE RUNNER: 2016'_. Those tailors from the tailor shop seemed like cool guys. Your hotel room was beautiful, I wish I could stay at hotels like that. Man, you have given me the "travel bug" cause now I want to get out of here and go off to some cool destination like this... (big bummer since I can't go...). I love these videos from abroad cause it allows us who can't travel to at least get a glimpse of life outside of our own backyards. So cool, I can't wait for the next one! Stay safe, have fun, show us some more of that awesome cityscape (especially at night), eat some awesome food and as always *_KEEP 'EM COMING!_*

Very much enjoyed this video. Loved the cat in the background at the end :-)

i watch your Beyond Science vids but had no idea you did others. You will look amazing in that suit.

Great video! Hotel was cool and I can't wait to see how the suit turns out. Request: next time you are in Hong Kong (or, if you are still there) please show us what is left of Kowloon!

WELCOME TO HK!! And thanks for the tailor recommendation

Love the cat in the back at 13:20

here in the states it takes a few weeks to get a suit made. I miss Hong Kong.

Mike, I'd love to see you in the finished suit.....I'm sure you look dashing. Enjoyed the music with this video. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the video. I have just discovered your channel. I am looking forward to exploring it. I have been to Kong Kong twice, both times at the end of summer which is humid enough! Next time, I shall go in cooler weather! But it is a magnificent city. I really love it.

Oh they have a cat in the store, how cute *_* and i wanted to say thank you for your videos!! i really love your channels you are doing such great work, keep up with it :)

My dad loves telling the story about when he got his bespoke suit in Japan. The shop did all clothing and the little woman measuring my dad said, "you are shaped like a woman"... narrow waist and wide chest 🤣

Love your vlogs! I've never been to the Far East but your vlogs make it look so much more appealing than tv! .....and the food looks epic! 😗👌🏻💪🏻👍🏻

The hotel in singapore changi airport had a bath like that and i could see straight to the gate sign above the gate to the plane if i popped my head up out of the bath ^_^

Great video my friend - Such a different world thank you for sharing your trip with us !

Wow...I love the background music during your bus ride from the airport

Love this... remeinds me of my dad. Because he used to buy custom tailored suits as well when he was still living in Indonesia. (way cheaper than in the west)

how much did this cost in us dollars ?

you gave me ton's of idea what to do, when i go to hong kong. all these shopping places, restaurants, and that friendly taylor, and the Cat..

It's really cool that you get yourself a custom tailored suit ^^ But the whole messuarement thingy totally reminded me of how the mc of the manga Sun-Ken Rock got measured when he got his custom suit xD

I wish mike would add more of him speaking Chinese in his videos, I’m very interested in the language and it makes him seem like a local when he’s in Asia.

Hey Mike, great video! Looking forward to part 2. I definitely will do that when I go to HK. What's the cost on a suit?

loved the shot of your drive to the hotel!

Cool! We want to see you in the finished suit, Mike :) I don't like extreme heat and humidity, but I wished I could be there in HK; It looks wonderful!!!

Rest In Peace chef!, thanks for the videos Mikey! I watch you everyday!

Great clip Mike! And we saw the girl in your background picture! ;)

wow feel like we're travelling with you all the way :D this is getting even more fun

Thank you for sharing. All around awesome!

I love the cat in the back right from 13:06 to 13:44!! Stores should be more like this one, have awesome cats and dogs, unless they get sued because someone is severely or deadly allergic to pets like cats and dogs. This was pretty random but I just had to say it. Love your vids Mike, keep up the good work!!!

When I lived in HK I always knew how humid and hot the summer could get, but never think too much about it because I was used to it, until I moved to Canada and only occasionally returned back to HK as travel then I realized just how bad it really was. That heat wave when you exit any facility with air-conditioning is simply unreal, and then you just melt like butter lol

I remember reading about having a suit made in a day. this was from a very old book. looks like its been a tradition for ages

I love the vibe of this vlog.

Everybody should buy a suit when they're in HK. They have some of the best tailors in the world. You need to tell us where you got that wonderful music from. Hopefully, Shazam can identify it.

hi mike, love your videos and on your other channel. I just want to ask the bus you took did it let you take your luggage aswell?

I like the fact that they have a cat just walking around their shop

This is a cool video! I have ALWAYS Wanted to go to Hong Kong with an empty suitcase and get some suites and shirts made - buy all my clothes when I'm there.

omg love this music in the background!!!

Those guys in the suit shop were really cool. I love the cat back there on the table.

Window viewing the bathroom from the bedroom! That was exactly my first reaction when I was in a Chinese hotel

I live in Chicago but I'm visiting Hong Kong! I hope I run into you! Love your videos!!

Hey mike, I am curious as to what camera you use. Great videos by the way!

That bus man! I love it, always this bus to TST not the Airport express. Air conditioning, space and that view! Yep, same for me - quickest customs ever, i felt a bit weird like did they forget something?..

The ride is long from the new airport. I miss the old Kai Tak Airport there in the harbor. I miss the approach flying into the city. I am glad you are having a great time there...Congrats!!!

Hey Mike, awesome vid. What camera do u usually use?

Nice music, awesome video as always !!

Looking Sharp! big Mike!

Keep us updated on the final suit dude

I was just in Hong Kong/Guangzhou thought about getting a custom suit/shirts, but didn't know where to go and ran out of time at the end :(. Will definitely get it on my list next time I go back!

One side for winter, one for summer xd Love this channel, great guy! (sub)

I'm the only one who noticed at 12:22 the way the guy lifts the kitty. Haha hilarious!

can you do an update video. I'd like to see how it turns out once the suit is done. thanks

id love to know where u got the music for the bus ride... its beautiful

dude, it would've been very helpful for you to put the link for part two in the video.

During the driving scenes in the bus what music was that? It was so beautiful

Thank you so much for this. One of my dreams is to be a bespoke tailor for both men and women. I love Asian cultures and your teaching videos.

I love the song during the bus ride

What are the music in the begining ? thank you

Nice tailoring job ... well worth the price! Depending on how well you keep your figure, that suit could still be around many years from now ; )

All this to go into 5 michelin star restaurants serving top-of-the-line food wearing your finest polo shirt lmao. Never change, Mikey. Love your videos.

Loved it. Thanks for the video.

What are the songs that play during your bus journey in the beginning? They're beautiful

Hey Mikey! Love the video! Just curious, how much was your suit?

So different view... I am always going to town via train.. Nice one!

13:07 real live HELLO KITTY!!!

Will you do a video of the final product of the suit?

Excellent video as usual and awesome musics. Do you mind sharing the tracklist ?

My Korman Suites in Canada you can see the beds through a pass through from the bathroom.

9:21 “oh thank god that curtain closes. Not issues of privacy” lol so funny

Snazzy! Maybe you could have a couple nice shirts made, too.

A custom suite will always look great on a man. Sharp looking! Can't wait to see you in a customized suit! My husband had 3 done in Beijing. We had to select from fabric to buttons to design to lining to thread. It was a half day process. He still looks great in those suits. Have a great time visiting your girlfriend.😊 Btw, I've been in a hotel room with the bathroom seeing into the bedroom... it felt weird but it was great watching tv from the tub.😅

Throwing this out there for exposure again since I've seen this asked a lot - The song that plays at 1:40 is called "The Silk Queen of LeiZu" by Tony Chen

where can you wear black? Black suits are classic! Any formal event. Basically, any wedding, special dinner, dancing, black and white dance, even work. Black is not just for funerals. You can never go wrong with black. best line, "my boobs are too big"

Yes your hotel view is very nice....That is an interesting bath room right next to your bed there. There are some very nice hotels there in Hong Kong. On my layovers there I stayed at the Intercontinental Harbour View Hotel. We are next to the big convention center and a short walk over to the Star Ferry Company.

How much was the suit? I went to the place in little Italy where they have the lobster tail cream puffs. I went 3 times! Thanks for the recommendation
