how safe or let's say successful is it to ship things to Malaysia?

Their post has gotten me goods, but I can't speak to the reverse, and tracking didn't work.

[Megatron1505]

Same , I have had things sent from, but never sent to (more useless information as it arrives).

[Finn666]

well the "send to" part is important to me atm.!

[rocket]

[Finn666]

talking about tapered denim:

now as you all might know, my MBB's got tapered a bit!
now since starting to put some real wear into them, they o/course evolve…traintracks are about to form and become visible etc.!

the "problem":
since keeping the original selvage ID, the tracks would look like some sort of funnel (normal width at the top, bigger/wider spread at the hem) with a few more days/weeks of wear...not really into that tbh.!

the (possible) solution:
am I able to cut them down to the original width, burn the cropped edges and be good!? :-\

[Megatron1505]

Give it a try Rafa, be a pioneer

Of course you can't.  Cotton does not melt like polyester or nylon.

[Finn666]

ok, i totally understand…is there a different way then?
maybe i just need to overrun the whole thing with the sewing machine eh?!...

[tatmantall]

That does sound like a bit of a pickle your in mate.

Don't feck with them in the first place…

[mclaincausey]

Well, since presumably you don't have a time machine, why not trim it even and leave he edges unfinished?  So they fray, big whoop, they're not visible. I think the tracks would just sort of dissipate towards the fray maybe?

Posted shoes and jeans untracked without issue before. (I've also lived there for a few months ;). Lovely place)
