Coat & Outdoor Jacket Alterations

For this service, start by folding the excess fabric back to the desired length, the final sleeve length should not go past your thumb knuckle. Proceed by pinning the fabric into place ensuring it is even all around. Don’t worry if there are buttons in the way we just need to know the final length. This is how the finished result will look.

Stand in front of the mirror with one hand on your side and fold in the excess fabric with your free hand, then pin it into place. For this alteration only one side is needed to be pinned. 

While wearing your jacket or coat, stand straight and look forward while you have a friend pinch out any excess fabric through side seams. Pin the fabric until you reach your desired fit, keep in mind that you can only do a maximum of ONE INCH per seam, otherwise the fit of your coat will become distorted and any pocket details on the front will shift towards the back. Repeat this on both seams for a proper fit.
