    I'm hoping to put together a definitive list of worldwide jeans repairers and chainstitchers.  Once we have enough data, I'll organise by geography.  Please contribute….

                    Cool guys, good store and they do have a chain stitcher. I think they're looking to add other equipment such as darners, etc.

                    Think it, be it.

                                      Thought I'd share a picture of my work 🙂 At the moment I use poly cotton thread (thanks again Giles), will get some different threads in the future.

                                        Luke Deverell of Darned and Dusted offers a darning service in London. Repairs are unlikely to be invisible, but add to the character of a garment.

                                        There's an interview at Denim Hunters, and more photos on his Instagram feed.

                                        I had a small patch done on my IHSH-33 the other day, and it's a tidy job. It's a different quality to someone like the Denim Doctor, but I like Luke's style.

                                          They did a very good job on hemming my 1955S.
                                          Took them not more than an hour.
