@Max:

Has anybody shortened the sleeves on a denim jacket successfully? I sont have a trusty tailor yet and dont want to screw it up. I read it can be done but did anybody really do it? Cheers and thank you guys

Anyone?

[neph93]

I remember reading about it. You have to detach the cuffs shorten the arm and reattach them I think. I’ve also read it has turned out badly for some people. I’d go with a denim specialist if I was you.

If I ordered something now, would it be worth "stacking it" to wait until you post that knurled silver button for sale?  Or is that thing a long way off?

Related: please can I buy that knurled silver button!?!

Thanks @neph93 I am a bit afraid indeed that it might turn out bad.

Which leeds me to my next question - what european denim specialists / tailors would you recommend to do this Job?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

@Max Power Ruttloff Garments would surely be able to do it.

[Max Power]

Good idea @beautiful_FrEaK

[Max Power]

Rutloff is too busy, so unfortunately he won't do it. So I'm still looking…

Melvin from the Netherlands? He has a denim repair shop. He is based near GRoningen, can't remember his shop's name though.

Edit: Mr Handy Denim Repair

I wanted the other one if it is not a fortune. But I will just get it when they come out when I order something else.

@casketoccupant:

So, what do you think, should I have the other side of the crotch repaired and get more use out of these, or call it quits on them and move on to my next pair?

Thanks!

I've had jeans repaired multiple times in a lot worse state than this. If you like them, fix them. If you're in the US then use Rain at Indigo Proof. She's a goddess when it comes to this kind of thing. https://www.indigoproof.com

[spitfiredealer]

yeah repair them if you still like them and they are comfy.

I have this same issue with my 21oz 633s, my all time favorite pair. I had them darned in the crotch and they are so uncomfortable they are almost unwearable.

@Giles Hi G, inbound as in 'shipped' or 'being produced/shipped anytime now' ? I'd love a tan.

After my last wash on my 33T I noticed a spot that showed up after. I am not really sure what to do about it. It's not bad, but I don't really want it getting out of control.  Whats the thoughts on what to do? If anything..

Its where the large arrow is pointing. Im assuming it happened in the wash.

Wabi sabi and all that. Have it darned if you’re worried it will get worse. Railcar fine goods does a lovely darning job

[nurunuru]

The shirt's looking great.  I'd say just keep on working away on the graceful evo and it'll distract attention away from the spot just fine.

[kkibbey23]

Thanks for the input/conformation!!

Yeah, I’m going to ignore it. Just adds to the shirt.
