Twenty francs for a simple hem, twenty-five when something has to be preserved. If you are not sure which yours is, we see it while we pin.

We check the zip at the same time. If it has to be replaced, that is CHF 35 including the zip, and you hear it while we pin.
Four things, and the hem is right first time
- The shoes you will wear
Two centimetres of heel move the hem by two. Trainers and boots are two different lengths.
- The belt
With a belt the trousers sit differently on the hip, and so does the hem.
- Five minutes
We pin on the body. On a hanger we would be guessing.
- No appointment
Monday to Saturday, just come in. Usually we can do it straight away.
Pinning costs nothing, even if you decide against the work. You hear the fixed price while we do it.

Good cleaning, fast service. Two hours before a wedding I found a stain on my suit I had not noticed. They cleaned it express. They try to make everything possible.

I am very satisfied with the service I received. The whole team was extremely friendly, attentive and professional. They worked very quickly, precisely and with real commitment, and delivered outstanding quality. I am genuinely very happy with the result and can absolutely recommend their services. Thank you for the excellent service!

I always have my suits and shirts altered there. Super cleaning and tailoring service
Questions about shortening trousers
Not covered here? Call us — you get an answer in a minute rather than through a form.
076 501 73 31How long should the trousers be?
Suit trousers want a slight break on the shoe; chinos sit just above it. Come in with the shoes and we pin it exactly.
What is the jeans original hem?
We cut above the original hem, shorten, and sew the factory edge back on. The fading at the edge stays, so the jeans look as bought. CHF 25.
Can trousers be lengthened?
If there is enough cloth in the hem, yes. Otherwise we use a false hem for CHF 30.
How long does it take?
Usually 48 hours. If it is urgent, ask — it is often faster.
