Sleeves the right length and a jacket that fits you
We shorten sleeves, take in jackets, adjust shoulder pads and replace linings and buttons on blazers, jackets, suits and coats. From €8 and with no appointment, at our workshop in San Luis de Sabinillas, a short drive from Estepona, Casares and Sotogrande.
What we do
These are the jobs we are asked for most.
We shorten the sleeves of blazers, jackets and coats, from the cuff or from the shoulder, and lengthen them when the garment has spare fabric.
We take in the sides and back so the jacket sits properly.
We replace, reduce or remove shoulder pads.
We shorten the length of jackets and coats.
We repair or replace the lining when it is torn, unstitched or worn out.
We replace missing buttons and broken zips.

What shows the most
The sleeve should show a little shirt cuff and the shoulder should sit where it belongs. Those two details decide whether a jacket looks like yours or like a borrowed one.
At RC Arreglos we have been altering clothes in the same premises in San Luis de Sabinillas since 2000, and we are an official alterations workshop for El Corte Inglés: we handle designer labels and all kinds of fabrics every day.
We pin the adjustments with you wearing the jacket, and tell you the price and the timing on the spot.
Is it a suit? We alter the trousers too: trouser alterations →
Is it leather or suede? It has its own page: leather, suede and fur alterations →

Very good work. I took a leather jacket in for repair and it came back like new. Friendly service and a fair price. Thoroughly recommended.

Common questions
Jacket and coat alterations start at €8. The price depends on the garment and on the job, and we tell you on the spot when we see it.
Usually between 3 and 5 days. If you need it for a specific date, tell us when you bring it in.
Yes. If the buttonholes allow it, we shorten from the cuff. When the cuff has working buttonholes and there is no room to cut between them, we shorten the sleeve from the sleeve head, that is, from the shoulder, and the cuff stays untouched.
It is the most delicate alteration on a jacket. Sometimes it can be done and sometimes it is not worth it. We look at it with you wearing the jacket and tell you honestly.
Yes. We alter both the jacket and the trousers: sleeves, fitting, hem and waist.
