      @Giles:

      How big is the problem?

      The hole appeared rather suddenly.  The other faded areas around the crotch are also thinning quite considerably.

        Hmmmm.  I could repair that, but I would not say my darning skills are anything to write home about.  The repairs in Japan are sometimes brilliant, sometimes not.  The only person I trust 100% is Raine from Indigo Proof…

          @Giles (or anyone) - have you any experience or opinion of the www.denimdoctor.co.uk?

          I've got a smaller version of the above appearing on my r&h666 colaborations…who's proper name I've forgotten.

              Ok, great. I was probably paying too much attention to your previous post, but I'm more than happy sending them your way.

              I'll give you a shout when I get a chance and may even drop them off or collect them personally if you'll allow. I'd love to have a nosey around the place if possible and it'll make a change from GOSH.

                My (no longer) white IH thermal waffle and my Wrangler ecru selvedge denim jacket have both received the at-home-overdye-treatment. I was hoping that the denim jacket would end up black however, it's more like a deep blue. The thermal came out superb. I am happy with the results however, my attempts at avoiding buying an IH-101J-BLK have been foiled.

                  Good job on the thermal!

                  The journey is the objective.

                    Looks like they came out pretty great to me. Love the Wrangler jackets that they make for then European market.

                      Had the sleeves shorted on my indigo riders jacket and a Momotaro shirt shortened by Pinnasandneedles in Soho, London. Got recommended them by Rivet and Hide. Excellent workmanship. They shortened and retapered the sleeves and also maintained the chambray lining, gusset zips etc. Cost me £90 to get the sleeves done but certainly money well spent imo as they did an excellent job.

                          Looks like a very nice job and one which to me seems not too simple. So they removed and shortened the zip as well I assume when they tapered it, well worth it, looks great fit on you

                                    Best and worse crotch repair job

                                    Worst.  Rendering this pair unwearable until I modified the repair: jeans are my 666  Superblack work pair

                                    madmonday's retired….I'm just tired.

                                        damn those superblack repairs are plenty ugly.

                                        is the top buttonhole functional?  the images look like it's just darning on darning

                                        @Cutlasshound sleeve shortening looks excellent enjoy

                                            One looks like Indigo Proof's work.
