Keim Furs

I’ve been going to Macy’s fur vault for years and finally got fed up and FIRED THEM! I brought my mink jacket to Keim Furs for the 1^st time in spring 2015 and their prices for cleaning, storage and to fix a tear in my lining were about 80% less than what Macy’s wanted to charge me. I picked my coat up this week and it looks immaculate! The staff is very friendly, personable and best of all no one wasted my time trying to hustle and haggle me for more services. Good job, Keim! See you spring 2016!

My mom bought me a mink 30 years ago. It has been hanging in the closet for all these years. My mom passed away last christmas. Early this december I thought about the coat. I decided to take the coat to a furrier and have it altered. My sister was doing the same with her beaver coat and had gotten many referrals from friends who have been going to Keim for coat storage and alterations. Tommy had many ideas on how to improve on the coats design to update the style. He said think about shortening it above the knee (original was mid calf). Let me take it in on the sides and make it more fitted and lets remove the shoulder padding. This coat was also reversible with a rain coat. Tommy said the coat was worth the investment because of the type of fur and the patch style design. He actually had to work on two coats. I wanted to think about it and he was fine with that. He was not pushy and very kind and attentive. I went to Macys and tried on many minks just to get an idea on the changes Tommy had in mind. I decided to trust Tommy and today I picked up the coat. It is absolutely perfect. It suits my personality. I am so comfortable in the coat where as before I was not. He had the vision that I didn’t. I love the coat and I will be wearing it often. He truly revived the coat into the 21^st century and added a beautiful hood that he made from the length that he removed. I really am thrilled that I still have this gift from my mom and with Tommy’s expertise it turned out better than I every could have imagined. It is truly perfect!!!
Thank You Tommy.

Have had furs cleaned over the years here… always did a great job. Recently brought in a tough alteration on a leather and fur vest. They did a great job in 1 week (most fur alterations run 3 weeks as it’s laborious work). They found matching fur, matched the lining and strengthened the stitches. Great job!

Excellent customer service. I took a vintage blue fox to get cleaned. When I purchased it, it had a strong cigarette smell. They polished the fur and reduced the tremendously. They also cleaned the fur twice because it needed extra care since it’s old and didn’t charge me anything extra. The men there are extremely knowledgeable about furs and how to maintain them. Additionally, they only charged me $ 60 for cleaning and polishing. Highly recommended. Their fur selection is beautiful as well.

I was told that the cost of shortening a coat would be about $ 100-​$ 200 but the bill
was nearly double. I sent an email requesting an itemization of charges, it was ignored,
so I called about 2 weeks later to inquire about the status and make an inquiry about the charges. First he starts yelling that I don’t have a written contract assuring me of delivery date. I informed him of the rules or oral contracts. So for the cost break down and he starts yelling again that he is not ripping me off. It seems to me that anyone who resists a reasonable question has something to hide.
The guy seems crazy and the gal gives a hard sell.
Beware, stay away

Every time I have a rip or tear… this is the place to go. No one does as flawless a job as Keim. Also, their cleaning and storage is excellent and prices fair.

Keim Furs is a Ravenswood boutique sells fur coats, and accessories along with some leather items. The shop also repairs fur garments and houses a refrigerated storage vault on-​site for customers seeking to keep their pieces in a climate-​controlled environment during the humid summer.
Quality is high. They have on hand many types of furs and the design of some coats were quite up-​to-​date cut. You’ll have to be buzzed into this location… FYI
Now I realize there are folks out there that will detest this review, but if you wear any type of leather shoes then you too are guilty as those animals are also kept to just be harvested… that goes for you folks that eat hamburgers as well… but enough of the PETA debate.
Prices were affordable with mens fur lined coats running around $ 3000 and full length coats for women running around $ 15 000 to $ 19 000. I didn’t see anything over $ 25 000 which for Chicago shocked me a bit and actually seems affordable.
So if you find your sugar daddy or really want something that really keeps you warm in winter, this furrier provides a nice selection of a wide range of coats and covers.
