Co-Founder, Fino Bespoke Tailoring
Berkeley is a city of ideas — home to one of the great research universities in the world, a thriving community of entrepreneurs and innovators, and an intellectual culture that values authenticity over convention. The Berkeley gentleman who chooses bespoke tailoring is not following a trend. He is applying the same rigorous thinking he brings to his work to his wardrobe — understanding that a well-made custom suit, like any great thing, is the product of deep expertise, premium materials, and genuine craftsmanship.
At Fino, we have had the pleasure of crafting custom suits for Berkeley clients who span the university and the city — professors who want a suit that communicates authority without stiffness, entrepreneurs who need a garment that moves between a Berkeley startup and a Sand Hill Road pitch meeting, and professionals who simply want to dress with more intention and less compromise.
Our Los Gatos studio is approximately 50 minutes from Berkeley via I-880 South — a straightforward Bay Area freeway drive that brings you to our private atelier in downtown Los Gatos. We take over 30 precise measurements and discuss everything from lifestyle and occasion to personal aesthetics and fabric preferences. The goal is a bespoke suit that feels like an extension of who you are, not a costume.
Berkeley grooms seeking custom wedding suits find Fino to be the ideal partner. Berkeley weddings often reflect the individuality and creativity of the people celebrating them — from intimate garden ceremonies to sophisticated celebrations at the Claremont Club or venues across the East Bay hills. Our bespoke wedding suits are designed to match that individuality, built entirely from scratch and tailored to the occasion. Custom wedding suits at Fino start at $2,400.

For Berkeley wedding parties, Fino provides coordinated groomsmen packages. Each groomsman is measured individually and fitted personally at our Los Gatos studio, with the overall party presenting a unified aesthetic that still honors each individual. We accommodate members traveling from across the Bay Area and ensure every fitting is efficient and productive.
Our fabric library features selections from Loro Piana, Dormeuil, Scabal, Holland & Sherry, Piacenza, and Fox Brothers. Berkeley clients often gravitate toward fabrics with character — textured wools, soft flannel, and refined tweed — fabrics that suit an intellectual sensibility and look better with every wearing.
Fino welcomes Berkeley clients by appointment for a private consultation. Julian Zaragoza and David Brenno bring deep expertise and genuine enthusiasm to every commission. The conversation that shapes a bespoke suit is as important as the construction itself, and with Berkeley clients, that conversation is always interesting.
