I have some pieces of men's casual clothing that I'd like to have copied. They're comfortable, well-designed things that aren't made any longer.
I would like to lend someone the original, select the fabric and fittings (snaps/buttons/etc.), and then pick up the finished copies and my original.
Does anyone have an idea of if/where this could be done?
I understand that this is possible across the border but I'm hoping to avoid a trip to the Mainland. I'm willing to pay more to be able to drop off and pick up my items here, even if the work is done over there.

Thanks for your reply!
Unfortunately, and I know that I'm being fussy/picky, but I won't set foot in/near Chungking Mansions for any reason.

Most people I know go to shops in TST, like on Mody Rd, or is that too close to CK Mansion for you?
There are also lots of suit tailors all over TST if that's better for you, Kimberly street for example, they are generally located near hotels.

Ahh... I think I see how this may have gotten off track.
I apologize. I said in my original post that I was trying to get some casual clothing copied, but I probably wasn't specific enough.
I'm looking to get some copies of pairs of cargo shorts made. The ones that I have are well-designed and comfortable and great but ready for the trash as they're nearly worn out and the designer/company doesn't make them anymore.
Even though I would probably be willing to pay well in excess of what an original pair cost a couple of years ago (they were about $HKD 1k when I bought them in the USA), I don't think that the tailors/copy suit guys in TST are geared up for making cargo shorts.

Yes Lucas ...., I know exactly what you need 'coz I want the same thing for shoes . However , being told simply to stroll down Nathan Road near Chungking Mansions is absolutely the most ridiculous advice anyone could give you . Being targetted by touts is nobodys way to search for a quality service . I have a wonderful tailor so if you e mail me privately , we can discuss and decide . Good luck mate . ....rogermalouf@yahoo.com
