Is a RM1,000 Taobao Pure Wool Suit Worth It?

I’ve been browsing the forum and doing some suit shopping. I noticed that a tailor-made pure wool suit can easily cost upwards of RM2,500.

In comparison, ready-made suits from Sacoor Brothers are around RM900 for a two-piece, though the size options are pretty limited. I also found some suits on Taobao for about RM1,000. These Taobao options offer a wider range of sizes and colors and come as a three-piece set. Both options use Super 130 wool.

Alternatively, I’m considering just saving some money and going to a place like Smart Master, since I’ll only be wearing the suit 8-10 times a year. Personally, I think spending more than 1% of my annual salary on clothes is a bit excessive.

So, what do you think—are the Taobao suits worth it?
