      a competent and experienced tailor/seamstress should be able to do all the above, however I have seen a few faces that look like this [emoji50] when presented with heavy weight denim as their needles/machines have to be up to the job.

        @d.s3 Have a tailor remove the shirt cuff completely and reattach it at the point to achieve the desired shirt sleeve length  🙂
        I've had a Belstaff Trialmaster jacket sleeve lengthened, at Hideout Leathers, using a similar method however with the addition of millerain cotton to achieve the desired length.

          @Black Orchid Thanks! I can totally see that face! Will ask my tailor about shortening at the sleeves!

            I might need to move a button on my Jeans. Is there a way to get the old button undone without destroying it?

                          I wasn't sure where to post this question, but hope here is fine.

                          I'm looking to sell a pair of Viberg x IH service boots but not really how to price them or what's fair. They're in great condition. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

                            Post them in the B&S at a rate you feel is fair. I sold my last pair for $350USD YMMV.

                              Both are made in Japan. 37 Celsius is too hot for boots.

                                      I have a pair of hillsides which are supposedly made by shoes like pottery. They're very nice and I think better made than a lot of the alternatives.

                                        Yup, shitty seal equals humidity equals frost.

                                        Is there anything to improve the seal of a fridge?.. And for you smartarses: I still have to be able to open it as well…

                                          You can probably replace the seal. They get worn out or brittle and start cracking over time, so a new one might be necessary.

                                            It's a new fridge… But three hours after plugging it in, the back was already wet and frosty...  :-\
