Repairs & Modifications
-
My IH-634S have never had any sort of attention so I decided to finally give them a little. The Front pockets were both on the verge of fully blowing out. The right was a bit stronger but both were in dire need of some fixing. Below are photos of the home repairs.

Thanks guys. Nothing professional I know. Just prefer the personal touch that comes from doing it yourself. I used the Red threading on the Right pocket just for something different. Actually looking to do a bunch more sewing and what not in the future. Thinking about possibly even borrowing my sisters machine and practicing.

This is already in "Denim Videos" but I figured it should be here as well…

The bane of cuffs- horizontal wear lines. Another reason not to do it.;)

Yeah you're right… But it didn't happen when I wore 'm cuffed the first couple of months... Bit weird...
and for some reason all my IHs develop these much faster than lighter weight denim….I guess it's price you pay...
My ALDs (14 oz) don't have this and I've worn them cuffed since the start :-\

yeah on jeans this pricelevel….(sometimes a bit neg. feedback might do good in the experiment lab.)
edit.
if it's sthe stiffness, I think soaking/washing hems thoroughly 2"-5" upwards might soften the fabric a bit...
We'll see what happens to my RAWs, as they've been through washer more often than my SRs....
