QUALITY OF MATERIALS
Remy Leather luxury begins with the excellence of the skins we import. We choose only from the top ten percent of the skins available in the world. Our unique selection includes Butter Skin and our own Remy Lite (both done using English domestic lambskin), among other skins. Our fabric choices emphasize quality as well; from fine imported cashmere for reversible jackets to superb Benberg jacquard for linings. All of the leather and material must meet the exacting Remy specifications.

MATCHING
Matching is the first inspection step of many that goes into the construction of a Remy Leather garment. This process demands a keen eye to sort the six – seven skins carefully (per garment), while matching them for consistency in color, grain texture and thickness. Plus, it takes a special talent to determine the suitability of a particular skin for the style that is being cut.

CUTTING
Both an art and a craft, cutting for Remy Leather requires an excellent eye and a steady hand. Again, consistency is key here, in color, grain texture and thickness. In addition, our cutters have perfected the ability to know the part of the skin that works best for each part of the garment.

BUNDLING
The next step, bundling, sets up the quality for the rest of the production. To make sure the cutting was successful in matching and that there are no imperfections, the bundler closely examines each piece that will go into the making of the garment. Once all the pieces pass muster for their quality and consistency, they are bundled together.

FUSING
Perfect adhesion of the fusing material (fusible) to the leather means that there are no bubbles or wrinkles in either layer. Proper fusing results in flawless collars, cuffs and plackets that lay just so without puckering. While straight pieces are fused by machine, we fuse all of our curved pieces by hand.

POCKETS AND SEAM DETAIL
Founding associate Ernestine Hernandez heads up the seaming department where she supervises our team of talented sewers. The quality of Remy Leather stitch work is much in evidence on our pockets, top stitching and other details. We demand precisely ten stitches to the inch, no matter if a seam is straight or curved. Clean and smooth, every seam is pucker-free with solid tacking at the end of each detail.

SEWING
After pockets and seam detailing are complete, it all gets put together. Sewing and assembly call for special dexterity, particularly when setting the sleeves and collar. Likewise, to correctly join the lining to the garment and attach the zipper requires unique skills. Properly done to the Remy Leather standard, of course, means less puckering.

FINISHING
Remy Leather finishing equals a beautiful, wrinkle-free product with instant hanger appeal, ready to go out on the sales floor. For this, we press the entire garment, not just the cuffs and collar. Finally, we sew on the buttons and attach the snaps, both of the highest calibre, so that their line-up is perfect with no bubbling or waving.

FINAL INSPECTION
Before a Remy Leather item leaves our premises, it must go through an exacting final inspection. We are extremely particular here and never let a garment pass that has an imperfection or irregularity. Every garment is scrutinized once more for leather quality, color match, seam work, finish detail, fit and more. Only after a piece has been found to be flawless is it suitable for shipping.
