Looking for tailor recommendations in Seattle (surrounding areas)

[ksozay]

Could use a good tailor to handle random leather jacket issues that I don't feel like tackling myself. Wondering if folks have someone they'd recommend? I've had a few names given to me but the tailors didn't come with a glowing recommendation so looking for someone people have had good success with.

Thank you!

Carrie at Insurrection/Thurston if she will do it. I have personally watched her sew leather, and she is outstanding. :thumb:

Yes, alas I've tried to convince her to do some of my projects but she's been pretty busy.

Can't she recommend anyone else?

The recommendation she had is for a tailor that is pretty booked up and not very close to where I live, unfortunately.

Don't think most tailors will tackle leather coats KS, you may have better luck trying cobblers. I found one here in Tacoma who has no problems repairing racing leathers or replacing zippers.

Hey Mike!

Would you mind passing along contact info? Tacoma isn't close but I do pass through there often.

Take care,

KS

I lied KS, it's actually in Lakewood: http://www.ardessons.com/

He will replace zippers but you'll need to provide them, he doesn't stock any. Good luck!
