Uniforms · Sacramento
Uniform alterations, done to the specification.
Uniform work has a right answer. Placement is specified, spacing is specified, and an inspection doesn't care that it was close — which is exactly why it suits a shop that measures everything twice.

- The work
- Dress uniform tailoring to regulation · Insignia and rank placement · Name tape and patch application · Ribbon and badge mounting · Trouser hemming and tapering · Jacket and blouse take-in
- The price
- Quoted in person, once we have seen the garment on you. Nothing starts until you have agreed it.
We alter service uniforms for the Sacramento region across all branches, plus law enforcement, fire service, and other uniformed professions.
That covers dress uniforms tailored to regulation, insignia and rank placement, name tapes, ribbons and badges, and the ordinary tailoring — hems, waists, sleeves, tapering — that makes a uniform sit properly.
Bring your regulation reference if placement is specific to your unit. We'd rather work from your standard than assume.

Placed to regulation
Insignia, rank, ribbons, and name tapes positioned to the measurements your standard specifies.
All branches and services
Military dress and service uniforms, plus law enforcement, fire, and other uniformed professions.
Fast when it's needed
Inspections, ceremonies, promotions — the dates that simply don't move. Call and we'll work to yours.
Getting placement right
Placement rules are precise and they differ by branch, by uniform, and sometimes by unit. We work from your regulation rather than from memory — if you bring the reference, we'll follow it exactly.
It also changes as you do. Promotions, new ribbons, and unit changes all mean re-placement rather than a fresh uniform, and that's quick work when it's the only thing needed.
Fitting a uniform that has to be worn all day
A dress uniform is judged standing still, but it's worn for hours. We fit for both — clean lines under inspection, and enough through the shoulder and seat that it's still wearable at the end of a long ceremony.
Duty uniforms for law enforcement and fire service get fitted differently again, around equipment and vests, so the garment works with the load rather than against it. Tell us what you carry and we'll allow for it.
Military and Service Uniform Alterations — questions we're asked
- Do you alter military dress uniforms?
- Yes, across all branches — tailoring to regulation plus insignia, rank, name tapes, ribbons, and badge placement. Bring your regulation reference if placement is specific to your unit and we'll work from it exactly.
- Can you sew on patches, name tapes, and rank insignia?
- Yes, positioned to the measurements your standard specifies. Promotions and unit changes usually mean re-placement rather than a new uniform, which is quick work.
- Do you alter police and fire department uniforms?
- Yes. Duty uniforms are fitted around equipment and vests so the garment works with the load rather than binding against it — tell us what you carry and we'll allow for it.
- I have an inspection next week. Can you turn it around?
- Usually. Ceremonies, inspections, and promotions don't move, and that kind of work is routine here. Call 916-988-8822 with your date and we'll tell you honestly whether it's workable.
