cheap new clothes

Uh.. I don't mean to be that guy, but tailors aren't even operating in that market.

People who use tailors aren't interested in off the rack items.

Even when they do purchase off the rack or even secondhand items..

they'll go have some of those items tailored.

Not anymore.

Not any time that most of us have even been alive.

It's been well over half a century since tailors operated in the "cheap clothing" market.

The clothes tailors make have, pretty much, always been expensive relative off the rack department store options.

Probably because tailor made clothing doesn't "scale".
