Fit it right.
Rawhem is an independent clothing shop with a sewing machine behind the till. We stock heavyweight basics, workwear and tailoring from small labels, then take it up, take it in or patch it so it actually fits the person wearing it.
Small labelsStocked in short runs, re-ordered when they earn it.
AlterationsHems, waists and sleeves done on site.
RepairsBring back what you bought. We mend it.

The workshop
The machine is behind the till, not in a back room.
Most alterations are quoted at the counter while you are still in the changing room, with a collection date written on your ticket. Simple hems are often ready the same day. Bigger jobs are booked on the bench calendar so you know exactly when to come back.
- Pin it in the changing roomWe mark the fit on you, not from a size chart.
- Agree the job at the counterA written ticket with the work and the collection date.
- Collect it, or we post itText when ready, or tracked postage if you live further away.

House rules
Measured flat
Every online listing shows garment measurements in centimetres, so you can compare with something you already own.
Fair returns
Unworn and unaltered items can be returned within the period shown at checkout. Altered items are made for you and cannot.
No fake urgency
No countdown timers, no invented “only two left”. If stock is low, the number on the page is the number on the shelf.
Straight answers
Ask whether something will suit you and you will get an honest yes or no.
Visit / Book
Fittings by appointment. Walk-ins welcome.
A fitting gives you thirty minutes with the racks to yourselves and someone with a tape measure. Walk-ins are always welcome; appointments just mean nobody else is waiting for the mirror.
