Sunflower? Recently ordered a pair myself, still in the mail though.

Ordered same pair on a whim, let me know how you like yours...

I've had good success with Denim Therapy.

I feel we've all had an experience where we get our jeans hemmed and it comes out like that, i.e., at a local cleaner/tailor etc. and then learn our lesson quickly!!

thanks, I might get these over to them soon.

Unfortunately, I do this like every 3 years and never really learn my lesson.

I’ve used Williamsburg garment company a few times for hemming and repairing jeans and they’ve been great and very reasonably priced. Even though I’m in NY I use the mail-in service for convenience and it’s been a smooth process every time.

I’ve also taken jeans to Self Edge though it’s been years —- I assume they still do it. But yeah no shortage of options

You guys should just cuff jeans. Hemming is blasphemy.

 

[RegisDB9]

I agree with Steve. I have long given up hemming denim and cotton. I either buy with my natutal inseam
length (a lot of designers are thankfully doing this now) or I cuff it up

Hemming jeans feels like im taking away something…yeah that sounded better in my head but you get it

Blue in green also does a good job w chain stitching

i like a simple frayed hem too

 

[OccultaVexillum]

I was about to say, the other option is to just raw hem them.

 

[PeteyPajamapant]

Yeah that was my next option, but I reached out to denim therapy and it sounds like they got some tricks up their sleeve.

Thanks for all the help everyone!

Stuff getting into the rollup makes my OCD crazy. Hem or stack it like it's 2005

But the stuff that collects in your cuffs is a record of your life… the things you’ve done, the places you’ve been. Every once in a while you can shake them out to see the grass seeds, bits of leaves, french fries, a random coin, and just smile.
