Had this done with 2 of my Samurai shirts - get the felled seam undone, replaced seam with a regular overlock and chain/lock stitch (or safety seam, if combined), finished with a top stitch (chain stitch or lock stitch).
Depending on the folder used for a felled stitch, this could give you some room…if done by pro it should even look OK.It depends a little on the depth of the new side seam (overlock and chain/lock stitch) - if kept around 5-7mm, it should be below the depth of the original depth of the felled seam (folded) and result in a gain of additional circumference. Not much, but sometimes that's all you need...

It's tempting but even if I trusted my tailor enough with the job I'm not sure I could bring myself to do it.

That's a shame. I was hoping for red…

What do you guys use a bandana for? I think it looks pretty cool, but I'm not sure if it would serve a purpose for me….
I posted these on sufu, but for any who aren't active on that side of the internet:
And the fit… still as stoked as I was when I first got them

Thanks Sean! I really like how they look now as well, but honestly my reason for picking these up was to basically recreate the 3001 world tours from a few years ago.

What a classic pair those tour jeans turned out to be. Basic recipe of daily wear and monthly washing is not a bad way to go about things although I like a little more contrast and I don't get my jeans dirty enough in a month to really warrant the wash.
