Expert Fur Repair. Preserve What You Love.
Your fur deserves more than an ordinary alteration.
From delicate seam repairs to extensive restoration, Sakowitz Furs provides specialized craftsmanship
to help preserve the beauty, structure, and longevity of your treasured garments.
The Art of Professional Fur Repair
Not Every Repair Should Be Trusted to a Seamstress.
Genuine fur garments are constructed differently from ordinary clothing. Their pelts, linings, seams, and delicate leather foundations require specialized tools, techniques, and hands-on expertise.
At Sakowitz Furs, we understand the craftsmanship behind these garments. Every repair begins with an evaluation of the fur’s condition so we can determine the appropriate approach to restoring and preserving its integrity.
Specialized Repairs & Restoration
A repair that looks acceptable on the outside may still compromise a garment if performed with improper materials or techniques. Fur pelts require careful handling and construction methods designed specifically for fur.
Our experienced furriers understand how to work with these delicate materials, helping restore your garment while maintaining its natural drape, appearance, and structure.
Our Repair Services
Tears & Seam Repairs
Small openings, loose seams, and damaged areas can worsen over time. Professional attention can help prevent minor problems from becoming much larger repairs.
Pelt & Section Replacement
When a section of fur or its leather foundation is too damaged to repair, replacement may be an option. We evaluate the affected area and determine the best approach.
Alterations & Tailoring
A coat that no longer fits can often be adjusted. Our alterations department can evaluate sizing, tailoring, and fit adjustments to help your garment feel right again.
Major Restoration
Age, wear, water exposure, and deterioration can all affect a fur garment. We evaluate the damage and discuss possible restoration options.
Garment Reconstruction
When a garment needs more than a simple repair, our furriers can assess whether larger reconstruction or restyling work is appropriate.
Protect Your Investment
Over time, fur pelts can become dry and fragile, particularly when a garment has not received proper cleaning and conditioning. Seams can weaken, small openings can spread, and neglected damage may eventually require replacement of entire sections.
That’s why we recommend bringing your fur in at least once a year for a professional inspection. Identifying developing problems early can help protect your garment and avoid unnecessary restoration costs.
The best time for your annual inspection is in the spring, after the winter wearing season.
The Complete Annual Care Routine
One Appointment. A Better Way to Protect Your Fur.
After the season ends, have your garment professionally inspected and take care of any needed repairs. Pair that maintenance with cleaning, conditioning, and cold storage to help keep your fur in the best possible condition.
Inspect & Repair: Identify weak seams, tears, worn areas, and other concerns while they are still manageable.
Clean & Condition: Remove accumulated debris and maintain the flexibility and appearance of the garment’s pelts.
Store Properly: Protect your garment through the warmer months in professionally controlled cold storage.
