Fur repairs

Small tears and loose seams deserve attention before you continue wearing your garment.

  • Tears and splits in the fur
  • Loose or opened seams
  • Areas of wear that need assessment
  • Questions about damaged or fragile pelts

Tell us where the damage is and how it happened. Clear photos help us prepare for your consultation.

Make the fit work for you

Fur alterations

Discuss adjustments to the length, fit and details of your coat, jacket or vest.

  • Shortening a coat or jacket
  • Adjusting sleeves and armholes
  • Refining trims and garment details
  • Assessing options for a snug fit

The available adjustments depend on the garment’s construction and the condition of its fur.

A recommendation
before a repair.

We examine the fur, seams, lining and construction before recommending a repair or fit adjustment.

For alterations, bring the garment in so we can discuss how you want it to fit. If you’re shipping it, tell us what you’d like changed and send photos; our team will explain what additional details are needed.

Older or brittle pelts may limit what can be repaired. We’ll explain suitable options and confirm the quote and estimated timeframe before you proceed.

Your repair & alteration questions

Can you repair an older or inherited fur?

We assess the condition first. Some garments are suitable for repairs; fragile or deteriorated pelts may limit the options. Send photos or bring your fur in for a closer look.

Can my fur be made larger or shorter?

Shortening and fit changes may be possible, depending on the design and condition. Enlarging a garment can require compatible additional fur. Our team will review suitable options with you.

How much do repairs and alterations cost?

Each garment and request is different. We confirm a quote after reviewing the work required; additional work is discussed before proceeding.

How long will the work take?

We provide an estimated timeframe after assessment. Tell us about travel, an event or another date you need your garment back.

Should I keep wearing a fur with a tear?

Set it aside and contact our team for an assessment. Avoid pulling on the damaged area or trying to patch it yourself.

What if I want a completely different style?

A larger design change may be a restyling project. We can discuss the options and direct you to our restyling service.
