Writer: Michael TamsuriyamitMichael Tamsuriyamit

NEW YORK CITYIn his more than 40 years as a tailor, Albert Lam has become an institution in Manhattan's Chinatown.


From a very young age, Lam remembers being fascinated by the craft of suit making. He spent almost a decade working at a tailor shop in Hong Kong learning how to make different articles of clothing. Eventually, he found himself in New York City, where in 1978 he and his wife opened their tailoring shop, Albert Lam Bespoke, originally on Lafayette Street.
