I apologize if this has been asked before. I did a search, but didn't seem to find my answer.

I have a leather motorcycle jacket. I need to have it tailored. Does anyone have any recommendations, hopefully from experience, where I can take it to have it done? I'm in the L.A. / So. Cal. area.

Thank you

Search "leather tailors." I posted some info a while back. Off hand, James Tailoring on Sunset in WeHo works w/ leather. They did a decent job with reconstructing a leather jacket of mine. Hours are a little off, which is why I stopped bringing clothes there. If Wilshire Tailor does leather work, I would recommend them. They've done amazing work on everything else that I've brought in.
