Leather Jacket alteration

[Throttle2]

I have a few leather jackets, and this particular one i bought but have never worn it.

 

The sleeves are too long and i would like to get it altered before wearing.

 

Anyone has a tip on where to go to get it done properly?

 

Many thanks

Hahahaha. I hv the same problem. I looked around but those tailors cant sew leather.

 

I think many Ang Mo got very long arms....like gorilla.

This particular one is sheepskin so it is not the usual thick and tough leather so shouoldnt be so difficult.

But isnt there a leathere place that can do it?.

I do know of one at beauty world, not sure if its still there.

Am looking for a closer alternative.

My wife and I have altered leather jackets/skirts here before. They are expensive, but for leather, I'd rather spend the money.

How much is expensive?

How much is expensive?

Low 3 figures for just sleeve length. Also depends on the complexity of the construction.

 

They will tell you after examining your garment.

 

Normal fabric jacket sleeve shortening is already around $100 there.
