Hoi An is known for it's abundance of affordable and well-made tailors' shops. Garments can be made in 48 hours from designs and fabrics chosen by you. This is perfect for those looking for a reasonably priced suit to take back home. However, be ready for possible electricity failure (and subsequently no fan or air-conditioning system) in the day when you might be having a fitting! And please don't be offended if the tailors call your size "very large"; it doesn't mean the same as at home. We tourists are just bigger than the locals, and they mean no harm by saying so!
