I want to make the sleeves of my saga shutout zip offs. Im pretty sure I shouldn't attempt this myself so I was thinking about taking it to a tailor. Anybody know how much this kind of thing would cost? Thanks a lot and +k for help.

a good tailor can do this pretty easily and quickly. not sure on prices since most tailors are different. if i were you id just call around locally to the tailors in your town and ask them how much it would be to make a snow jackets sleeves removable by zippers. they'll give u a quick estimate, but i cant see it being that expensive.

tailors are great. everyone should have all theyre cloths tailored, theyre so much more fitting and comfortable.

I would imagine it would run you between $50 and $200. I'm not a tailor so I don't know how difficult that material would be to work with, but I can't imagine it costing more or less than that. Those numbers are based off what I know of tailoring leather jackets.

ppreeeettty sure it wouldn't cost you two hundred dollars.

anyway there's that one kid who got his mom/grandma or something to make his ghost jacket zip off with waterproof zippers and all. I don't know where to dig up a picture.

threads for telling us the price when you get it, not that I would necessarily do it, but I would love to know how much it would be.

yeah, that's on the extreme end. I would realistically expect no more than $75. But again, I'm not very knowledgeable on this so take it with heaps of salt.

That is a one of a kind, authentic Newschoolers fap material, modifying it in any way will make it un-attractive, and un-fappable.

because doing that may ruin it forever...You need to hold on to it for like 5 years then sell it for 1,000,000
