Relining a Coat

A coat lining protects the main shell of the garment. It protects a coat's foundation and structure. It stands up to many putting ons and taking offs. A lining experiences the most wear and therefore can wear out. If you love your coat and the lining is in tatters, the lining can be entirely replaced. This is better than patching a lining because once a fabric starts to shred and deteriorate, it doesn't stop because of a patch. If you love your coat, extend its life by relining.
