Leather & Fur Alterations

Our leather and fur services include:Leather and fur garments are timeless investments — but even the finest pieces may need tailoring, restoration, or updates over time. At Family Tailor, we specialize in expert alterations for natural and faux leather, as well as fur of all kinds. These materials require an experienced hand and a deep understanding of their structure, flexibility, and finishing techniques.

We work with both modern and vintage garments, ensuring that each alteration enhances comfort, preserves the garment’s character, and extends its lifespan. Whether your jacket needs a better fit, your fur coat needs a new lining, or you want to transform a classic piece into something new — we provide tailored solutions with the highest level of craftsmanship.

Our leather and fur services include:

  • Jacket and coat resizing (shoulders, sleeves, sides, body length)
  • Shortening or reshaping sleeves and hems
  • Replacing zippers, buttons, hooks, and closures
  • Replacing or repairing damaged leather panels
  • Lining replacement (partial or full)
  • Altering fur collars, cuffs, or hoods
  • Converting full-length coats into vests or short jackets
  • Strengthening seams, repairing tears, and edge refinishing
  • Style updates and custom redesigns
  • Professional pressing and final finishing
Every leather or fur piece is unique. That’s why we begin with a personal consultation to evaluate your garment, discuss your goals, and recommend the best course of action. Our team is equipped to handle both delicate vintage pieces and heavier, modern materials with equal care and attention
If you’re unsure whether your item can be altered or repaired — bring it in. We’ll assess it honestly and let you know your options.
