Friends & Family Tours

This 1-hour experience is a behind-the-scenes look at Kaas Tailored—our culture, products, and the people who make it all happen. You'll hear from a variety of team members as we share what we do and why we love doing it. 

We offer these tours to give friends and family a glimpse into our daily work and to share our passion for our employees, continuous improvement, and quality. Kaas Tailored exists to Shine Our Light, and part of that mission is sharing it with our community.
