Wool and cashmere suits
If you suit is wool or cashmere, we can usually get a very good result. Animal fibres are softer and flexible, and are likely to form to shape after mending. We will take fibres out of the inseam of the suit to use. Keep in mind, because we're layering some of the fabric, you will see a shadow of a rectangle underneath the hole.
Best results: Holes smaller than 0.5cm, thicker fibres, dark colours, small patterns
Visible results: Holes larger than 1cm, synthetic fabrics mixed in, older suits where the fabric is shiny, large window pane patterns.
*As you can imagine, if the fabric has a large woven pattern, we'd need to find a similar large piece of fabric within the seams to match up the pattern, which is less likely.
From $70 each hole less than 0.5cm
