I use the pen slot to hold my sunglasses. Usually briefly. It works really well holding them snugly, never had them even if I lean over.

Anyone?

[neph93]

I remember reading about it. You have to detach the cuffs shorten the arm and reattach them I think. I’ve also read it has turned out badly for some people. I’d go with a denim specialist if I was you.

If I ordered something now, would it be worth "stacking it" to wait until you post that knurled silver button for sale?  Or is that thing a long way off?

Related: please can I buy that knurled silver button!?!

[Max Power]

Thanks @neph93 I am a bit afraid indeed that it might turn out bad.

Which leeds me to my next question - what european denim specialists / tailors would you recommend to do this Job?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@Max Power Ruttloff Garments would surely be able to do it.

[Max Power]

Good idea @beautiful_FrEaK

[Max Power]

Rutloff is too busy, so unfortunately he won't do it. So I'm still looking…

Melvin from the Netherlands? He has a denim repair shop. He is based near GRoningen, can't remember his shop's name though.

Edit: Mr Handy Denim Repair

I wanted the other one if it is not a fortune. But I will just get it when they come out when I order something else.

@casketoccupant:

So, what do you think, should I have the other side of the crotch repaired and get more use out of these, or call it quits on them and move on to my next pair?

Thanks!

I've had jeans repaired multiple times in a lot worse state than this. If you like them, fix them. If you're in the US then use Rain at Indigo Proof. She's a goddess when it comes to this kind of thing. https://www.indigoproof.com

yeah repair them if you still like them and they are comfy.
