Hello! I have a tailor in San Francisco but I'm wondering if there is a good option around where I now live

Very simple services needed such as:

taking in dress shirts, darts, taking in sport coats (dual vents), 1 3/4" cuffs and etc.

Can someone recommend a few places please? Thank you

Here's a couple recs that are not exactly SJ, but closer than SF:

But Google's telling me he's closed for good.

And @comrade has posted about this guy a few times. Hopefully he's still open:

Edit, he may be closed too. Might try this place:

Thank you @emptym

I know of those places too and while Andrea's was good, he moved back to Italy.

Still on the hunt so hopefully I find one in the San Jose area soon.

If what you're really seeking is a good alterations place, I've used Kim at The Perfect Fit for many years. She always does a first-class job. On De Anza Boulevard, in Cupertino.

Bob Stankovic passed away last November from Covid.

I have used Tailor Maid in the Stanford Shopping Center
for not very complicated alterations. Excellent jobs, so far.
