      The only downside to SE is you have to bring stuff in for repairs. If you aren't local it could be a deal breaker

          People in the UK - where do you get your stuff repaired? My 666s are 1 year in and hems need looking at, also a couple of weak (one hole about to break through) on back of legs also and wondering where to send them…

              Cheers Finn. I didn't know whether the guy above a few posts used him and complained!

              Before I send some pictures to denim doc, is there any in London?

                    should have used lighter colored thread…greyish blue, and it would've been almost invisible. Just a thought.

                      Just a quick one about maintenance. This is the crotch stitching on my 634S. There is some wear developing and I think it is okay but wanted another opinion to back me up.

                        +1 for the Denim Doctor.

                        Took in a blown out pair of pbj's and he did a great job.  Pics as and when…

                            true, though a bit maintenance wouldn´t be that wrong imo! i´d get them reinforced before more "damage" is going to happen!…

                              went to my tailors and had them add a cuff to the work pants, I'm rather chuffed.

                                @CLJ:  That shit is apparently happening in the crotch area on most pairs of raw/dry jeans, at least every single one of mine.

                                Here's a pic of a gusset, which is designed to take the stress off that shitty single crotch seam on regular jeans:

                                      that gusset wouldn't help with wear as it's caused by friction not stress. unless your getting seam blow out then it is stress. the problem is a simple one to fix….. wear loose fitting jeans

                                        Above is correct. ANd also sag a bit your tight fitting jeans, and you get there faster….

                                        I'd say not just loose fitting jeans, but properly fitting jeans.
