Is Hong Kong's 24-Hour Suit Worth It?

The 24-hour suit is a relic of fast and unfastidious fashion. Cheap fabrics, cheap cuts and perishable quality are fine if you need a suit for an afternoon, but if you're looking for an outfit that will last longer than your tan, true bespoke is the way to go.

Don't compromise on quality

Hong Kong is famous for its fast turnaround suits, often favoured by tourists who treat the outfit like a souvenir rather than a piece of sartorial excellence. What you gain in speed, you're losing in style, quality and, frankly, self-respect. The 24-hour suit is the perfect example of false economy. You'll forever be wishing you went the full journey and got a real bespoke suit made. In 5 years' time, when the sleeve is falling off your fast fashion, you'll wish you spent the extra money to get a legacy suit crafted.

It's a simple matter of fact that you can't get a suit to fit you perfectly after a single, short fitting. At Manesh Manolo Bespoke, we take over 30 individual measurements, from the irregular slope of your shoulder to your arm rotation. We then carry out multiple fittings to ensure the final garment is exactly how you want it.

Your perfect suit is worth the wait

A 24-hour suit is the equivalent of ordering your suit off Temu, whereas bespoke is just that– It's the interaction between you and a professional artisan, working together to create an outfit that not only will last you 15+ years, but one that elevates your soul and makes you proud of your achievements.
