      @Alex managed to blow a hold in the elbow of his UHF.  Got a needle and cotton from hotel reception, nabbed a FW19 UHF sample and voila…..

        That is some serious desk-diving, @Alex 😃

        Also, that UHF is gonna be great.

        Think it, be it.

          I’ve seen a YouTube video of a tailor taking up a dress shirt sleeve, which I suppose is effectively the same thing. You remove the cuff and the placket (is that the term for it on the sleeve?), trim the material and shift it all up. It looked difficult but not impossible.
          I’m going to find a tailor before I buy the shirt I reckon

            Got a ways before it's a concern, but overlock stitch or what?

                  If I had 2 pairs that needed repairing, do I need to add 2 of "Iron Heart Repair" to the cart? And would this affect the cost on the shipping label to you guys (from the U.S.)? Also considering maybe sending in a shirt to have the buttons pimped while I'm at it…

                    My first diy repair because of schredded pockets on my Naked and famous Chrismuggah. Replacing bottom of pocket with my grandma’s old Bernina turns out quite nice 😊

                          You probably won’t get anything from the picture, but had my tailor take in the thighs of my 888-XHSib. If it wasn’t over 30 degrees here it take a fit picture. They turned out great though.

                            I had my tailor do the same on my 555-XHSib,as the thigh measurement was only .4 of an inch smaller than the 888s. Also came out great. Said he had to use the machine he sews leather on.

                                      I think I finally figured out what I want to do with this chainstitch patch I got on Etsy. Anybody have a recommendation for a tailor/whatever in NYC who could do this (correctly) for me. I don't trust my local dry cleaner not to screw this up.

                                          You might want to get some patch glue to secure it in the exact spot you want it before you go to a tailor. Selfedge has a tailor that they recommend around the corner from them on Stanton Street. I don't know the name.

                                            Good call. I'll look into that.
