    Mariam did an incredible job job replacing specially designed buttons for my reversible leather coat. The stitching for buttons required special “knot spacing” technique to prevent pressure on the buttons, something Mariam was well versed in. She did a perfect job, and clearly very knowledgeable About specialty tailoring techniques, top of class in her craft.

    Cable Car Tailors: I’ve been going to Cable Car Tailors in downtown San Francisco for years, and they never disappoint. Mariam is incredible—skilled, precise, and truly an expert at what she does. She always understands exactly what each piece needs and delivers perfect results every time. Her workmanship and warm professionalism keep me coming back. I highly recommend them at their new location! Regards, Janet
