Repairs & Modifications

@injunjack:

Lando, you're totally right, but you neglected ( probably in a hurry) to see that both Seul and I said that in lighter weight denim this doesn't happen so fast.

This sort of fraying on the frontside of the hem is annoying. Never have had that happen to other jeans.
I've already fixed my SRs and will soon put my 634S's under the sewing machine. Probably today, if I have time…

Yes I did neglect to read the first part. And I do agree that heavier denim will wear quicker at these stress points. Guess that is the price we pay. You can always iron out your cuffs at the end of the day or unfold them so that the damage is not as severe.

It's all good… Nothing the good Doctor can't fix, I'm sure!.. 

[injunjack]

Or me…. jsut did my 634S's

That is a nice job.  I can't remember; did you send them to the Works for the repairs?

[Jii]

No, my local tailor fixed these. Was a bit hesitant to do that but it sure paid off.

[Finn666]

since i know Jii is a pretty skilled guy i´d guess he did the job at his own!…pretty great one after looking at the pics tbh!

edit: just saw the tailor did it...still great repairs!

[Chris]

Wow, I'll say that paid off.  Your local tailor is impressive.

[Jii]

Finn, I am looking to get a sewing machine in the close future but I guess it will take some serious work to get up to that level

[injunjack]

Guys, that ain't so hard. Hardest part is to get matching thread so that the repair doesn't jump out…

[madmonday]

injun, you do know i have a special place for you in my mental Rolodex 

looks like they did a great job Jii

[injunjack]

hopefully it's not too dark place…. I just try to encourage folks to try things on their own. Once there was a time when people did all kinds of stuff by themselves.

[madmonday]

not dark injun, it is actually a fun place where mofos say what they think despite the political correct stance that most take.

i know it isn't easy being a male model 

[injunjack]

well then, that's cool place to be.   Maybe I'll get my camera out tomorrow and show my feeble attempt on repairing my hems…

and not to talk about being rolemodel for a preteenager with hormon rollercoaster. That's what's going on here. LOL

[jimmy]

Jii looks amazing!

[madmonday]

666s great repairs & the best part is the repair doesn't bother my undercarriage

have to look for the before pictures 

[jimmy]

monday tidy job but loosing that top stitch would annoy the crap out of me

[Giles]

Yep, me too.  Unnecessary imo…

[thomasnunnally]

I feel the same way.  That said, everything else was very well done and is basically invisible, which I like quite a bit.
