Though not exclusively a tailor shop, I've used the following shop to make two customs suits and to alter some jackets and pants:
I've had a couple of men's suits made for myself at a local shop on Dong Feng Xi Lu. 三信子 (San Xing Zi) is the name of the store. It's on the south side of street, four doors west of the Provincial Museum.
The owner is Yang Yuan Li and she and her staff are vey experienced primarily in women's clothing, but men's clothing as well. They can turn around most orders in one to two weeks.
Forgot to add directions to the above. Heading west on Jiaoling Lu turn right at the main entrace, go straight back to the "T" crossing and turn left. The pool is on your right just after the outdoor badminton court.
Chuangyi Yingguo, "Think UK", Jiaoling Lu 88, in an apartment complex; Indoor; Heated; 15 RMB (annual pass available); clean (relatively high chemical level) with basic but clean locker rooms; three divided lanes and one slightly wider swim area.
You're in luck. There is a very good Guandong style restaurant at the corner of Renmin Xi Lu and Xi Yuan Bei Lu. It has a huge parking lot and garden out front. What you know as dim sum served in carts is not always there but all of your favorites and a lot more are available in small plates all day. Most menu items can be orderd by pointing to photographs just in case your Mandain (or Cantonese) isn't extensive. No. 5 bus to end of the line on the west side will get you there within 1/2 block.
There is no rule of law of China. One can have as many laws on the books as they wish, but if they are not applied and enforced uniformly, if they are not acknowledged by the people whose actions they are meant to regulate, they are simply words on a page. Gleaming new buildings, factories pumping out record numbers of goods don't mean anything if people cannot be expected to behave in a civilized manner. The chenguan are nothing more than thugs!
In their usual short sighted "wisdom" Kunming govenment "officials" (nothing more than illiterate, card carrying thugs) have missed the boat. Instead of doing something stupid like banning cars 12 days per year, why not limit the growth of cars that drive on the road the other 353 days per year. i suggest a 25,000 RMB tax on license plates. This would reduce the demand for vehicles and the funds could go to rebuilding the crumbling road infrastructure.
Actually Kunming has three Wal-marts (Xiao Ximen, Baita Lu-on the way to the airport, on one on the east side).
It's great that Kunming is not destined to have the economic development of Shanghai. It would probably ruin what is best about living here: the relaxed pace of life and relatively "unspoiled" environment. Yes, people litter like fiends and driving skills of Kunmingers are poor, but the skies are clear, the breezes refreshing and the flowers bloom year round. That is priceless!

Kunming's chengguan suffering image problems

Kunming's no-car days expand to second ring road
