but you don't wear?

Remodeling steps from an original fur coat to a new fur knit jacket
Other products are also produced with the same process
STEP 1
Feasibility inspection
Original fur coat is provided by you.
We inspect the condition of your fur coat to ensure the coat is suited for our remodeling process. The fur coat that is not suited for remodeling is returned to you before starting any work.
STEP 2
Tear down
Once your fur coat passes the inspection, your fur coat is carefully disassembled. Then, these fur coat pieces are sliced into narrow strips.
STEP 3
Fur yarn making
Fur yarn is, then, produced from the fur strips utilizing our unique process and excellent craftsmanship.
STEP 4
Machine knitting
Fur yarn is manually knitted to your measurements with the knitting machine.
Some items are hand-knitted if required.
STEP 5
Finishing/Inspection
Knitted fur pieces are assembled to become a new fur knit jacket that is tailored to you. When completed, your new fur knit jacket is carefully inspected. If everything is good, your new fur jacket is shipped to you.
We will give your fur coat a new life.
We have been producing quality fur knit products for our customers for over 30 years.
Because of the uniqueness of our process, we can accommodate minor damage.
A very old heavy fur coat with a tired look will get a modern, stylish design. We can transform it into a light and fitted fur knit jacket or any other fur knit product.
And your new items will be made in Canada
Our manufacturing facility is located in Toronto, Ontario.
