Hi Guys,

Need to get my jeans hemmed (long overdue). Was wondering if a tailor in Boston has a chain stitch machine?

If there is then ive never heard about it. I always end up taking them to BiG or SENY


^This sums it up. I always meant to check with the Levi's store on Newbury (they mainly stock LVC stuff), but never got around to it. They might know of something.

I asked there, and the dude had no idea what I was talking about(real nice for a dude working in a high-end[or high price?] denim shop). I heard that Flavio the tailor on Boylston St does chain stitching, though I've never been to him.
