Is it possible to alter a puffer jacket?
Whether you’re shopping for a new one or looking to freshen up an old one, it’s important to note that certain styles of coats are more difficult to alter. Puffy coats, ski jackets and traditional parkas can be repaired but are extremely challenging to tailor due to their down-filled interiors.

Yes, they can be altered. We do it all winter long. It’s a very time consuming, labor intensive job, but any experienced tailor can do this.

If the sleeves go down past your thumb, and the shoulders are much wider than your shoulders, the coat is too big.
