The Experience

I didn’t expect to care so much about buttons. Or linings, or the way a jacket shoulder sits — but stepping into the tailor shop in Koh Samui, everything felt different from the usual “off-the-rack” routine. There was this faint smell of pressed cotton and something sweet — maybe someone’s tea cooling on the counter? The owner waved us in (I think his name was Mr. Singh), smiling like he’d been waiting all day just to measure my arms. He had this way of flicking through fabrics that made me realize I know nothing about wool blends.

We talked about what kind of suit I wanted — honestly, I wasn’t sure at first. Mr. Singh nodded along patiently, then started showing me bolts of cashmere and linen, letting me touch each one. There was a moment where he laughed as I tried to pronounce “seersucker” (I definitely butchered it). My partner picked out a shirt fabric too; she said it felt “like summer air,” which is probably poetic but kind of true. The whole process felt relaxed — not rushed at all — even though there were other customers chatting quietly nearby.

Private transportation was included, so we didn’t have to worry about finding the place in the heat (the driver had cold water waiting for us). While we waited for measurements and first fittings, someone brought over ties to try on — free if you wanted one — and kept checking if we needed anything else. It’s funny how getting measured can feel awkward at first, but here it just turned into jokes about my lopsided shoulders. By the end, I almost forgot we were in Koh Samui until I looked outside and saw palm trees swaying behind the glass.
