According to your own preferences and favorite fabric, 
so-called "made to order."

What is Tailor-made?
It means made by a tailor or with a tailor's care and style. : made or fitted especially to a particular use or purpose.

Various plan of custom-made suit
Before choosing a fabric, let's choose your plan.

There are 3 plans (Extra fee is added for Black Label)

① Custom Order (50,000 yen/ Takes about 3 weeks)
About 60 % of the entire production process is handmade, the rest is machine. 
It is a reasonable price for a customized suit.
Not only directly use of the silhouette template, 
but adjust carefully according to the size and style of your body.


② Royal Full Order  (150,000 yen/ Takes about 1.5 weeks)

The entire production is handmade. The whole process is professional!
To shorten the production period, more people are involved on the cutting and sewing process.

③ Royal Full Order (350,000 yen/ Takes about 2 months)

The entire production is completed by the highest level professional.
A person completes all 22 steps and make it an exquisite work!



# Selection of fabrics

they will suggest colors and material according to the height, skin color, body proportion, occasion.

you will definitely like it!



# What do you think about this fabrics?

An expert advised a dark blue and calm dark grey colors.



# Hard to make a decision

Standing in front of the mirror, 
what do you think??

Finally, we made the decision!!




# Choosing buttons

Excellent fabrics with excellent buttons! Exactly!
Diversity of choices, according to your style!
Gorgeous or athletic!



# Measuring size

The most important measurements indeed!



# Unique measurement method

In general, only one measuring long ruler is used!
A shorter one is only used by some British traditional tailors. 

Here, in Sakaeya,
its original measurement method is used.
Using both short measuring ruler for 30 spots and long measuring ruler for 15 spots.

Every detail is the key to determine the final qualified suits.




# Each step contains a meticulous expertise

After measuring the size, make it wet and dry again to prevent contraction.
After that, a model size of the measurement is to be determined.
Putting a piece of fabric on as the "core" of the chest region. 
That is the "skeleton" of the suit!

In Sakaeya, in order to show the suit into the fullest, 
2 various materials as the core are used for different parts.
After the core part has fixed,
the cutting starts!



# Roughly stitching 

Fabric is being cut according to the core measured paper.



# Combination of experience and technology 

Try on and fit every detail point.

With long-standing experience and high technology, a unique way of tacking is used to guarantee an excellent quality. 

Especially the fine adjustment to ensure the shoulder region is fitted but flexible.



# Perfectly "Fit"

No worries about a relatively large movement. 
No more inconvenient.
Find the pleasure in front of the mirror!




# Finally completed!

Perfectly fit! 
An original suit is completed!



#MY FIRST BESPOKE

Carefully chosen fabrics, coupled with rich experience in measurement and cutting. 

A suit to be done requires at least 3 weeks to 2 months. 
Therefore, you might be hesitated to make one during your travel in Tokyo.

No worries!

For example ......



# Asian-tit SUIT

It is made for the general body type of the Asians.
