räätälöitäviin

räätälöitäviin is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the adjective räätälöitävä, which means “tailorable” or “customisable.” The form itself is the plurale tantum illative case, used to indicate a group or set of items into which customization can be applied. For example, the phrase “käsitellään räätälöitäviin vaatteisiin” translates to “are processed into tailor‑made clothes.” It is typically used in contexts where a range of products or services is being adapted or fitted to individual needs.

The root word räätälöitävä comes from the verb räätälöidä—an adaptation of the English ‘tailor’—and carries connotations of precision, personal fit, and craftsmanship. In everyday Finnish, the term is most often encountered in the apparel industry, but it can also refer to furniture, technology, or any object that can be personalized. Because Finnish case endings are highly inflected, the illative plural form is less common than the nominative or accusative forms; it usually appears in technical or literary descriptions rather than casual conversation.

In the legal and contractual spheres, räätälöitäviin clauses are used to specify that goods or services must be adapted to the parties’ specific requirements. This ensures that the parties acknowledge that the final product will not be standardized. Such clauses are especially relevant in construction, software development, and high‑end fashion.

The usage of räätälöitäviin reflects a broader cultural emphasis on individualized solutions within Finland. While the term remains mostly specialized, its presence in various domains underscores the value placed on customization and the ability to tailor products or services to fit particular contexts or preferences.
