@Danimal506. I wear mine hemmed and I like them very much. Its personal preference, there is no right answer. I do like wide hem widths anyway.

[yannis]

As far as shrinking, I wouldn't worry about it. It will be negligible if any. Just don't throw them in the dryer.

[Danimal506]

@yannis Cool man. Yea I like both hemmed and cuffed! That makes it tough to decide.

[Oaktavia]

@Danimal506 In my opinion wider leg openings look better hemmed short especially with lighter weight fabrics. Cuffs look better with heavier denim in cuts that have smaller hem, again in my opinion.

[Danimal506]

@Oaktavia That makes sense. With the 12oz Wabash and the painters pant style cut, I think a good hem would make for a killer fit.

[Oaktavia]

@Danimal506 agreed

If you decide to hem you will also have some fabric if and when you need to do some repairs. It’s certainly a beneficial move in regards to collecting debris in the cuffs too.

Bonus pair that made it to shorts!

good idea ️

[Danimal506]

@Mister_Brue Great point!

Luckily I have a Self Edge nearby that I can bring them to and still have the chain stitch hemming. I think I will hem them sooner rather than later.

So much crocking, my safety harness is turning green!

And my hands blue!
