If there are any issues with your online order, don’t worry we’ll work it out! Here’s how it works:

1. Notify us of the issue. Please take high-res photos of you wearing the garment from the front, side and back (preferably taken by another person). This allows us to assess the fit and determine the next step.
2. We will contact a local alterations tailor and explain what needs to be done and agree on the price. Let us know if you already have a preferred alteration tailor and we will coordinate with them. We will

then send you a quote on the alteration work. If the quote you receive exceeds the quote we give you, please let us know before proceeding with any work. We will not be able to reimburse for any alteration work done that we have not previously agreed on.

3. You visit the tailor to get the alterations done and we will reimburse you via in-store credit or PayPal depending on what you prefer.

Yes, we do make dresses and woman suits, if you have any specific design or picture you and share with us, we will make exact copy of it.

No, our standard construction is a half canvas jacket, where the lapels, collar and half chest are canvassed with a quality canvassing. We have found this to be the best blend of both quality and cost effectiveness. Fully canvassed jackets are very labour intensive and cannot be rushed. They take approximately 2 weeks to complete and the client needs to be available the whole time for fittings.

Unfortunately this does not fit with the schedules of the vast majority of our clients.

No,There is no minuimun order requirement here in Raja’s, You can always come by and bring a friend along with you, have a look gain some idea of how it works and feel free to ask us questions you have in your mind and then decide the quantity of cloths and amount you want to invest.

In order to ensure a perfect fit we require 4 full working days with 2 or 3 fittings. This means 3 to 4 full days after recording your measurements and choosing all of your options. We strive to achieve a perfect fit for all of our clients. If you don’t have 4 days in Bangkok, we can post the garments to you if they are not completed when you leave. The absolute minimum requirement is 3 days; 1 day to choose your fabric and custom choices with 2 more days for fittings, and for the client in urgent we can provide our emergency service,We do not recommend this though, as there is no guarantee that the garment will have a perfect fit.

Shirts take approximately 2 to 3 days to produce depending on the volume ordered. (This can change depending on various factors) This means 2 full days after recording your measurements and choosing all of your options.

We generally make one shirt first and test the fit the following day. Any alterations are recorded, the pattern is then altered and used to make any remaining shirts. This is not a guaranteed timing but a general example.

Many of our clients travel around Thailand using Bangkok as a base. We will make appointments that fit around your schedule. You will require a total of 4 full working days in Bangkok. An ideal schedule would look like this: You would come in on Monday and choose your fabrics, your options, and we would take your measurements. Then we need about 24 hours to work on the garments and get them ready for a first fitting. The first fitting would be the next night, Tuesday evening. We would then need another 24 hours to work on the garments again. Your second fitting would be Wednesday evening. Ideally, we would do 1 more fitting on Thursday, as this is the best option to ensure a great fit. Otherwise, if you did not have any more time, we could work on the garments and ship them to you once completed.

 

Your initial visit is what will take the longest. Depending on how decisive you are with choosing fabrics, styles and options it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half. An average initial visit takes about 45 minutes.

Fittings usually take much less time as it is just yourself and your tailor discussing the fit of the garment and making any alterations. This usually takes about 20 minutes.

We understand that sometimes clients will take their clothing home and then change their minds about fit, or specific details. Obviously we cannot foresee this for you. Before you leave our shop you will be asked to acknowledge and sign off that we have done as promised and delivered what you have requested.

However, if this does happen you can bring your clothing back to us (or send it) and we will do our best to rectify whatever you’d like changed. However, there may be costs associated with this (such as you shipping it back to us and us having to ship it back to you, fabrics needing to be recut and so on.) Every case is different and we will be reasonable in our approach to finding solutions to any issues that arise. For example if you want your waistband taken in or your trousers hemmed, there will be no charge, but if you want your jacket pockets changed from slanted to straight, this involves recutting both front sections of your jacket and will be charged according to the prices in the link below.

After 15 days all alterations will be done according to the way you prefer. Shipping charges will also be the responsibility of the client. Please do not send any garments back to us without contacting us first.
