Wear and Repair
-
Sorry if this has been talked about before, but is there any way to repair the pocket bags on IH jeans? Ive got a rip along the top seam.
-
@Tago Mago. Ok thanks. It seems tricky, that's why I asked. I'll check the link.

Does this only apply to jeans? I got one of my favorite UHF's snagged on a loose screw in my garage last winter and ended up with a pretty nasty gash on the elbow. I haven't worn it since as I've been debating on what to do.
I was considering a wabi sabi patch to cover it, but just inquiring here.

@Johnnyutah247 Sorry to hear man! Could you send us a photo the damage. I'll relay this to @JoshC and see if there is anything he can do.
-
@Freeman sure thing. Thanks for trying. I will take some pics first thing tomorrow.

Like I said, pretty nasty. I'm thinking a patch might be the best fix?
-
Oh shit. I’d cry. But honestly though, I don’t want to speak for @JoshC but I feel like he could do something with it. It won’t look like new but he can for sure make it wearable.
Also, if you found two matching burgundy patches it would look pretty dope. If it were me I’d do that.

@Matt i was pretty upset, I've had this UHF for a long time. It was weird, I didn't feel it happen, I was working in the garage and at some point I felt a cold draft on my arm and looked and saw the hole. I bought it new from self edge whenever it came out. Its one of the first ironheart pieces I ever bought. It's been washed a bunch of times and it's so buttery soft now and broken in. The patch idea is what I'm thinking. I wonder if the crew has anything laying around that matches.
