SERVING FOOTHILL RANCH

A neighborhood tailor for Foothill Ranch

Foothill Ranch keeps a busy pace, between errands at the Foothill Ranch Towne Centre and weekend trail miles up in Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park. For tailoring near Foothill Ranch, visit Sami's shop in San Juan Capistrano. He is not a chain counter or a seasonal pop-up. He is a family tailor who learned the craft the long way and still does fittings himself.

Whether you are a professional who lives near the foothills and needs a suit that reads sharp, a parent shortening a child's school uniform, or a bride preparing for a day that has to be perfect, the work is treated the same way. Careful measurements, an honest opinion on what a garment really needs, and a price quoted before any stitch is set. We welcome men, women, and children, and we work with any fabric, from rugged denim to delicate silk and beaded lace.
