To Cuff or Not to Cuff?
-
@Karol I used to hem & cuff but now I just fold & go - just like Charlie Hunter, cool clip!
-
I hem them so there is zero stacking with a 1.25”/3mm cuff. Just a tiny bit of cuff to keep the the indigo warp off my shoes and minimize indigo transfer. Then when I want to dress it up a bit, I can uncuff and it still looks tailored.

@Go-For-Chill What are the jeans? Oni?

@will6er S3000XX17oz-SDS SLUB "MURASAME" MODEL. The denim is pretty gnarly and striking in person.

I get them hemmed to the right length, end of.....
How do you define and measure the right length @Giles?
I struggle with a consistent method of measuring. I like a quarter break in the leg if possible.

I prefer them cuffed, a Tokyo cuff generally.

@Go-For-Chill this is pretty much where I’ve landed. Long enough for a single cuff if I feel like it, but not too long to wear without.

Just touching the floor at my heel with no shoes on. I make no adjustment for rise, just hem them all to 34

Hemmed, 100% of the time. Don't like the extra mass/bulk/material of a cuff. Feels annoying/clumsy to me and gets on my nerves.
I often like how a cuff looks on other people though. -
Cool - thank you @Giles
