        Thanks for that Jimmy, much appreciated.  🙂
        I must admit I'm waiting for my tailor (mother) to return from holiday to attempt the repair, when she does I'll show her this.
        Thanks again.

          Monumental post, master Jimmy.  "Thank You" is not good enough, HUGE RESPECT!!  I don't know if there's another place you could even ask for something like this.  Iron Heart for Life!!

                My first attempt at repairing.. I know, It's not pretty.. But it adds character right? LOL

                Oh and I had absolutely no idea what I was doing….

                    Got my 634S'es… For me, this is the ultimate cut... Much like the SEXIH07bk TTS but less room in the arse... There were two ways of tapering these, I chose for the one that 'ruined' the selvedge line as I don't plan on wearing them cuffed at all... The hem was chainstitched on afterwards...



                    So yeah, big thanks to:

                      Got my SRs back from the Denim Doctor today, very pleased with the repair that was done to the hole that had developed by the button hole! It's not the neatest job in the world but I was told this would be so before hand and as it can't be seen it dosen't matter.

                      The hole

                      The repair

                      I'd add that it looks better in real life than my pics show.

                        Seul, that selvage line doesn't look too bad. Me thinks thoise might be possible to wear cuffed as well…

                                I don't think the selvedge is ruined. You made it sound like they cut it off which made me cringe….

                                      Hi, My back batch stitching is coming undone after a week of wear on my 666XHS and I was wondering if anyone knew a name of a stitch I could find a tutorial on to try and repair this myself (i.e lock it to stop it running anymore)

                                      Cheers guys

                                      GO HEAVY OR GO HOME

                                        The back tac is still there so it's just the tail. Snip it off and you will be alright.

                                          Had to do some repairs on my 634s. I am pretty happy with the outcome.
