This might not be the way.

@goosehd the old advice from my teachers about re reading the exam questions before answering still stands me in good stead!

The main reason for changing from cuff to hem for my latest 4 trousers is that I manage to have gaping holes around the cuff line within half a year. Can't be arsed to change the cuff up and down all the time..

That’s Filthy.
#Filthycuffs and Rainbow sandals all day. Someone's gotta do it .

@Mizmazzle maybe someone else can help me out with the terminology… is it a Tokyo cuff where you do the big cuff then cuff that for a double cuff?? Whatever that’s called, the extra fold seems to ease the wear for me
-
@Memphisakers Your definition is correct!
-
That also opens up a very cool change you can do with the length if you hem them to just the right spot. You can Tokyo cuff them (thanks goosehd) for a no break length for engineer boots or fold it back down to a regular like 2” single cuff for some stacks with Nikes. Doesn’t show any weird fade lines at either length! It’s like magic!!

@Memphisakers Any cuff over time will show wear and tear…I‘ve heard that uncuffing them fairly frequently and cleaning all of the dirt/crud out will slow the process down (some), but there is nothing that prevents it over the long course of time.

@goosehd I haven’t been around long enough to talk about long term… my oldest pair of jeans are a 3 or 4 year old pair of 555xhsib that have been Tokyo cuffed since day one. I will say that there is zero fraying or wear in any part of the cuff area. That is only 3 or 4 years of wear though, I have no idea what they will look like in 10 years. I do clean out the cuffs every once in a while and wash them at least a couple times a year.
