@tk303 It was a bit of long explanation but I've been wearing it lately so it was front of mind so had the thoughts all ready. It can be a bit of a challenge too, getting the sizing right so if I can help that's a good deed. I'm in Australia & it's not easy to find someone that can sew denim or cares for that matter (they do care about getting paid however). I took it to a proper tailor, he wasn't sure, I explained to him how I think he can do it (seriously, well to be fair he usually does suits). Anyway, I got him to remove the bottom hem, shorten the body, then reattach the hem. He did a good job, complete with a few crooked lines to make it look 'handmade'. I think the original hem was chain stitched but that's just about impossible to get where I am so it was a sacrifice I was willing to make & it's not noticeable. It couldn't be shortened any more as this would've affected the pockets. The only noticeable change apart from a better length is the hem button spacing is different but who'd look at that? Good luck.
