My hobby

**Career**

After graduating from university, I worked as a semiconductor design engineer at Panasonic. While employed there, he aspired to become a tailor and at the age of 23, he apprenticed under Mr.Okamoto, mastering the entire process from pattern making to cutting and sewing. In 2010, I founded the custom suit shop "AlberoAlto", creating suits and garments for numerous clients, including executives, athletes, and celebrities.

Since 2015, I have focused on wholesale and established the Order Suit Academy to train the next generation of tailors, with over 200 graduates to date. Due to his achievements, he was appointed as a fitting training instructor for Ralph Lauren Japan in 2020.

In 2016, I held his first trunk show in New York, where he received a tuxedo order from Grammy-nominated "Keith Middleton". After navigating the COVID-19 pandemic, I hosted his first trunk show in Hong Kong in 2023, receiving suit orders from celebrities. He continued to host trunk shows in New York in both 2023 and 2024, actively traveling domestically and internationally to deliver suits to numerous clients. My diverse client list includes customers from over 20 countries.

In the future, we plan to actively conduct trunk shows not only in Japan but also in the United States and Asia

**Message**

We use the finest fabrics from the UK and Italy. However, I do not intend to merely imitate British or Italian styles. We strive to incorporate Japanese hospitality and uniqueness into our proposals and craftsmanship. We will continue to work diligently to ensure our products reach more customers around the world.

True Bespoke Experience

True craftsmanship is at the core of every suit we make. From precise measurements and quality materials to masterful tailoring, we’re proud of the thought and detail that goes into making every piece.

We’re Your Personal Suit Expert

All About the Fit

We believe that suits are all about the right fit. No matter how luxurious the brand or expensive the fabric, a poor-fitting suit will not do the job.

We take pride in being a boutique brand that allows us to meet the unique preferences of our customers. We have over 15 years of experience making custom suits for a wide range of body types from 5’0” to 7’0” in height. A significant number of our customers have large builds, such as rugby and American football players.

Not only do we take every measurement into account, but our suits are designed to give you the flexibility and comfort you desire by considering the most flattering silhouette for your age, profession, and body type.

Choose from Our Premium Fabric Selection

Each piece we design is customized to your character and style. You select your favorite material and color from a rich selection of premium fabrics offering a myriad of hues, patterns, and textures. All of our fabrics are directly sourced from our trusted and well-established fabric makers from Japan and Europe.

Kuzuri - Designated by the Japanese Imperial Family

Nestled in Ichinomiya City, Aichi Prefecture, a region known for Japanese woolen craftsmanship, stands Kuzuri, a prestigious fabric manufacturer with over a century of heritage. They’re known for their premium fabrics that graced the suits of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan, establishing their brand as a reliable choice of the Imperial Family. Utilizing traditional slow-speed weaving machines, their meticulously woven fabrics boast a robust texture and a silky smooth touch. We highly recommend that you experience one of the most prestigious and finest fabrics firsthand. Imparato - From the Heart of Style and Elegance

Imparato - From the Heart of Style and Elegance

We personally source fabrics directly from Southern Italy, the epicenter of style, elegance and men’s couture fashion. Over the years, we have established a solid partnership with Imparato, the powerhouse behind the fabric brand ARISTON, headquartered in Naples, Southern Italy. Ariston’s prestigious fabrics are produced exclusively in Italy and are offered in a wide range of natural-fiber options for designing world-class suits. Along with a seal of approval from fashion connoisseurs, we can assure you the most elegant and luxurious suits made with Imparao.

LBD Group - Where the Classic Suits are Born

Contrary to the luxurious fabrics of Italy, the clean and substantial fabrics of Britain are what makes the classic gentleman’s suit.

We have an established partnership with LBD Group, the producer of HARRISONS, the largest fabric brand in the UK. As we maintain a close relationship with LBD, we’re able to source our fabrics with the latest trends and styles in mind.
