Fur Shearing
Is your coat too heavy or would you like to update the appearance of your fur? We offer fur shearing services to reduce the weight of the coat. Any long hair can be sheared. In addition to making the garment lighter in weight, it also changes the texture and appearance of the fur. It gives you a whole new, fun, stylish look to an outdated garment.
We can shear the whole coat or shear the body and sleeves leaving a tuxedo collar and cuffs of the long hair adding a fun style to your garment.
Monograms
Want to personalize your coat or jacket? We have the machinery and experience to do this for you.
Fur Cleaning, Reconditioning, and Glazing
Dust particles will collect on your furs while they are being worn or hanging in your closet. If the dust particles are not taken care of, they can cause the guard hairs to break off. In addition, natural human skin oils, dirt and natural pollutants can damage the condition of the fur. Cleaning the fur also conditions the hide to preserve the natural oils which reduces the effects of drying, cracking, tearing and shedding. It also helps prevent the damage moths can cause by removing any eggs left behind. The best thing to do is to bring your fur in annually to be cleaned, conditioned, and glazed to bring back your fur’s luster and keep the pelts soft.
Restyling
- Turn Old Into Gold
Fur is an investment because it keeps its value. Fur has its own style; classic, yet contemporary. Your fur can be remodeled and passed down through the generations. It is not something that loses its value. If your older fur is just hanging in your closet or you just want a new look to your fur, this is the best time to restyle it for a new, fun and fashionable look.
We can restyle your fur to include minor to major adaptations, integration of suede, leather, poplin, or other materials. We can make a long coat into a jacket, a jacket into a vest, stoles into jackets, use the left over fur to create a cape, collars, headband and the list goes on...
Fur Re-Dyeing
Are you tired of wearing the same fur and is it just sitting in your closet? Bring it in to William Furs and we can give it a vibrant new color so you can wear it with your newest fashions.
All types of furs can be redyed. Natural colors are best for redying, however previously dyed furs can be dyed as well. Light colors can be redyed to darker colors. We can add a new lining to match the new color of your fur.
Leather and Suede Cleaning and Care
Professional leather or suede cleaning is recommended as needed, depending upon the wear and use of your jacket or coat. Normal dry cleaning methods are not advised. Cleaning leather differs from cleaning fabric; the process to clean leather or suede treats the leather by pulling oils and stains from the garment and replenishing it with natural oils to give the garment a clean, fresh, brand new look and feel to it. We also recommend water and stain repellent for your leather jacket for only $30.00. Leather Cleaning done on premises with turnaround time only a few days.
Fur Brightening
If you have inherited or acquired an older fur that has begun to oxidize or turn yellow, we offer fur brightening services to restore the fur to bring out the natural colors and brighten the look of the fur.
White Furs tend to oxidize (turn yellowish in color) over the years. This can be treated to make the color 50% to 60% brighter, whiter and better. This cycle revitalizes furs from oxidation, make-up stains and the various discoloring which occurs in the life of a fur garment. Lynx coats with white fox trim are also treated with color added brightener to make the Lynx brighter.
Magnetic Fasteners

Fur and Leather Repairs
