      My first diy repair because of schredded pockets on my Naked and famous Chrismuggah. Replacing bottom of pocket with my grandma’s old Bernina turns out quite nice 😊

            You probably won’t get anything from the picture, but had my tailor take in the thighs of my 888-XHSib. If it wasn’t over 30 degrees here it take a fit picture. They turned out great though.

              I had my tailor do the same on my 555-XHSib,as the thigh measurement was only .4 of an inch smaller than the 888s. Also came out great. Said he had to use the machine he sews leather on.

                        I think I finally figured out what I want to do with this chainstitch patch I got on Etsy. Anybody have a recommendation for a tailor/whatever in NYC who could do this (correctly) for me. I don't trust my local dry cleaner not to screw this up.

                            You might want to get some patch glue to secure it in the exact spot you want it before you go to a tailor. Selfedge has a tailor that they recommend around the corner from them on Stanton Street. I don't know the name.

                              Good call. I'll look into that.

                                Do you know if it is possible to add hand warmer pockets to a coat? This is not really IH specific. I have a Barbour jacket that fits me well and that I very much like but it doesn't have hand warmer pockets and it drives me bananas. I could try to find an alternate coat, but again, this one fits me well otherwise…

                                      Any recommendations? This is my IHM-15, about 3.5 years later. The right pocket is getting worn.

                                        A pro darn job will be expensive and not many people will pull it off well. Taping would work, or making a feature of it with some sashiko?

                                            Indigoproof fixed a jean jacket for me that had similar problems. You might want to reach out to Rain,if you’re in the states.
