So I'm a bit sick of the excess weird stacking I got with my Svens, and I'm having them hemmed and tapered to 20cm or so. I'll post pics once I get them tommorow. Also had a cool bengal stripe Zegna shirt shortened/taken in/depocketed i.e. streetweared.

Interested in seeing how yours turn out. I'm considering having my SJDJ's tapered as well. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you?

Here they are... they're a significantly better fit now, stack nicely without excess material at the ankle, and seem to be a good fit throughout. They're almost as good a fit as my RRLs if not quite as flattering in the seat. They fit better in the waist than the RRL which are just a bit tight but are stretching out to fit great.
