      Finn, I am looking to get a sewing machine in the close future but I guess it will take some serious work to get up to that level 🙂

      AIAN HA-TO!

        Guys, that ain't so hard. Hardest part is to get matching thread so that the repair doesn't jump out…

            hopefully it's not too dark place…. I just try to encourage folks to try things on their own. Once there was a time when people did all kinds of stuff by themselves.

              not dark injun, it is actually a fun place where mofos say what they think despite the political correct stance that most take.

              i know it isn't easy being a male model  😠

                well then, that's cool place to be. 😉  Maybe I'll get my camera out tomorrow and show my feeble attempt on repairing my hems…

                and not to talk about being rolemodel for a preteenager with hormon rollercoaster. That's what's going on here. LOL

                    666s great repairs & the best part is the repair doesn't bother my undercarriage

                    have to look for the before pictures  😶

                          I feel the same way.  That said, everything else was very well done and is basically invisible, which I like quite a bit.

                            wholly crotch images just to memorialize my 666s as they are:

                            view from the outside:

                            pork&beans view:

                            have been washed & the stray stitches & mess have been clipped & they are just waiting to make the trip to get repaired.  i need more time in the day or maybe an additional few hours in the day to get stuff done  😠

                            guess it's worse problems to have, so i'll stop the whining 😉

                            considering the way the crotch was i am very happy with the repair.  it's funny my other crotch repairs are uncomfortable as hell & the repairs actually caused me to stop wearing most of the jeans  😠  having my nuts feel like they are in a small a$$ cardboard box is not a good look  😠  these jeans feel just the same as before they left me for repairs.

                                  if i had a darning machine or a halfway decent sewing machine i'd do it myself, but alas i do not.  i don't even have enough space to put a sewing machine at the present moment.    So i must rely on the handiwork of others in this case.  If it were my car then i'd be in the driveway all day yelling obscenities and getting covered in oil and grease.

                                  PUT DOWN THAT STARBUCKS, PICK UP THAT GNARBUCKS!!

                                      Hi!

                                      I've got two jeans that need shortening in the waist.

                                      Does anybody know where I can have done this? So I looking for someone that can repair / alter denim in a professional way.

                                      Thanks and kind regards,

                                      Johannes

                                          I have yet to see a pair of jeans taken in that looks right. Something always looks "off". Either the pockets are too far back or it looks like a cinch bag.

                                          Just an observation
