Levi’s Tailor Shop
THE WORLD’S first permanent Levi’s Tailor Shop in a department store is now open at SM Makati. There shoppers can customize and personalize their Levi’s, working with a master tailor to place original patches, studs, and collectible pins on their apparel. The Tailor Shop also offers alteration services such as hemming jeans and, for those who want an extra touch of ownership and character, custom fabric paneling for trucker jackets. Patches and pins can be bought singly (P150 for one patch; P250 for a pin) or in sets, while studs are available in sets of 10 for P50. Hemming services range in price from P50 for a standard Hem to P150 for an original hem. The price for trucker jacket paneling depends on where the panel is placed, for example paneling on the front shoulder or collar cost P150 while an arm cuff or an upper back panel cost P200, and a center back panel is P250. The Levi’s Tailor Shop only does work on Levi’s products. The Tailor Shop will do work on old Levi’s products if the customer buys Tailor Shop materials such as patches and studs. Customers can also bring their own patches to customize their denim but they should also purchase any Levi’s product and/or patches. Another Levi’s Tailor Shop will open soon in Robinsons Place, Iloilo. Follow @Levis.philippines on Facebook and @levis_ph on Instagram for updates.
