Repairs & Modifications

What you guys think of this rough spot ? Do you think I should consider repair or leave it since it’s 25oz thick denim

I'm usually an advocate for the "repair early, repair often" school of thought, but I wouldn't do anything to that spot.

Hello, old friend…

Rain is seriously the best! So happy she has been so successful in her work.

They look good as new, Chris. You must be glad to have those back.

@Chris Do you have a "before"

I didn't take any, but happily, Rain did-

There really wasn't much to be done; there was a hole by the right pocket, and another above the left knee, the hems were fraying a bit, and there were a couple of weak spots here and there.  Naturally, she repaired more than I even realized needed it, because she's a damn master.

So I’m really fecking pissed at myself. I was in not being careful and in getting my fecking fat head through the neck hole of my brand new IHSW 23, I managed to get a rip down the middle.

I am assuming this is repairable, but I have no experience with swear shirt material.

Anybody have any suggestions or feedback of who I can send this to?

Shit, that sucks, you have my sympathies. Should be an easy fix for any half decent seamstress/tailor though. Just trim the edges and join.

@neph93 you can cross post your modification here. you're welcome. 

[neph93]

^ Ha! With pictures of course

I was hoping to hear that…as I have been looking on the internet I was thinking I may modify it with some buttons...then I can give it some versatility

[neph93]

You could do that. Or if you found some suitable material, you could have a V cut in and a dart inserted like the new IH sweat tops. That could be done to make the neck hole a little wider too.

[Dstauffer]

That right there is a damn fine idea sir! I think that may be the route I take.

Thanks for the idea Reuben…you are a freaking genius!

Not sure about that… can’t even spell check my posts.

While I’m on it, you could see if IHUK have a swatch of the ihsw-23 fabric. It’s a long shot, but you never know.
