          It was just a random announcement, buddy. No need to be offended. It wasn't directed to no one.

          I 'spose your speaking about your intentions, so do just what you wanna do, and nevermind this ol' geezer. We've been through this before, right?

          Nice working week to everyone.

                Why not just wait for the TDV Denim cut to come out?

                        Aaah yes of course.

                        Oh and to make things crystalclear: I think mod'ing your jeans = fine. Do whatever the hell you want with 'm… I'm wearing my tapered 9634Zs as we speak and my XHS'es are under way to Gosport for a 0.5" hemjob...

                          That depends, if you want a certain hip-box AND a certain fit everywhere else, and that combo does not exist, modifications have to ensue 🙂

                              just brought the samurai S0500, IH-634s-raw & IH-666Sod to my local tailor for some repairs and heming.
                              he/she has reinforced the crotch on the samurai and on the raws and also hemmed my 666Sod…i really love the fit now i have to say...no more cuffing and minimal stacking, feels just right imo!...
                              since they can´t do chainstitching, they always cut off the old/original hem and after hemming, they always sew it back on, so that you still keep the original hem/chainstitch...looks great, though i can´t cuff anymore, but that´s just fine...
                              DD - can´t wait for the new fitpics of your xhs´s!…wonder what they will look like!

                                  Just got my SG2109's back from Denim Therapy (denimtherapy.com).  Had the crotch repaired and heavily reinforced, got em hemmed, and the pocket bags were more or less rebuilt.  Overall I'm very happy with the work they did

                                  I'll get pics of the work up sometime soon…

                                      emceeQ hope you got those to them in time to get the 15% off, from the repairs you listed that had to be expensive.

                                      if any one else uses Denim Therapy for repairs send me a pm so we can schedule or repairs to ensure we get a % off baased on their refer system. their repairs are the best i've encountered, but their customer service is a little lacking.

                                      just sort of random but it fits here.

                                        I did get them in just in time for that 15%

                                        The work was a bit pricy, but worth it.  Really top notch…

                                            After 11 months of wear, my Son Cameron has managed to go through the knee of his IH-106. Thats pretty good going as it takes him about 1 month with supermarket jeans.

                                            I'm patching it from behind with a piece of Ooe 14.5 oz denim (No. 92). This photo shows the patch being sewn on from the inside, this is hard to do on such a small pair without a free arm machine. Here I'm using a hand crank Singer 99.

                                            I've then darned edge of the hole with a Singer 201, this should stop the hole growing. Still hard to get at both sides of it!

                                            The new denim will show through as the warp threads wear.

                                            Going to have to do the other knee very soon!
