        Ok, great. I was probably paying too much attention to your previous post, but I'm more than happy sending them your way.

        I'll give you a shout when I get a chance and may even drop them off or collect them personally if you'll allow. I'd love to have a nosey around the place if possible and it'll make a change from GOSH.

          My (no longer) white IH thermal waffle and my Wrangler ecru selvedge denim jacket have both received the at-home-overdye-treatment. I was hoping that the denim jacket would end up black however, it's more like a deep blue. The thermal came out superb. I am happy with the results however, my attempts at avoiding buying an IH-101J-BLK have been foiled.

            Good job on the thermal!

            The journey is the objective.

              Looks like they came out pretty great to me. Love the Wrangler jackets that they make for then European market.

                Had the sleeves shorted on my indigo riders jacket and a Momotaro shirt shortened by Pinnasandneedles in Soho, London. Got recommended them by Rivet and Hide. Excellent workmanship. They shortened and retapered the sleeves and also maintained the chambray lining, gusset zips etc. Cost me £90 to get the sleeves done but certainly money well spent imo as they did an excellent job.

                    Looks like a very nice job and one which to me seems not too simple. So they removed and shortened the zip as well I assume when they tapered it, well worth it, looks great fit on you

                              Worst.  Rendering this pair unwearable until I modified the repair: jeans are my 666  Superblack work pair

                                          @DrPat  Chris is right….when Rain worked at SESF, the other was right after she left. They must have gotten someone better or that person has grown given the opportunity. I’m glad the pants weren’t a nice pair . It’s been a couple years . I’m over it  🙂  they are good enough to finish them off .

                                            That's what I suspected.  A few years ago I got a horrible repair job done at SENY (I'm not sure if the different SE stores used the same person).  There were balls of hard thread where the darning changed direction and they ripped into my thighs like a cheese grater.  I had to have a patch installed over the darning to make the jeans wearable.

                                            When I was in SENY a few months ago the staff was bragging that they have the best darners.  I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to give them another chance.
