      It looks like its still holding up well! It's very soft now after the washing. I asked him how he likes them and he doesn't even remember which ones were ripped. Though he doesn't look too hard at his jeans, so it's mostly by feel.

    Hi, wonderful tutorial. I like 1 and 3 and have used a combination to patch large holes in my son’s jeans, but your work turned out much nicer,
    I have used fusible stretch nylon interfacing (secured with sewing) to repair/reinforce the inner thighs area of knit pants where they tend to wear out, as I hope it will be more comfortable.

    I’ve used method one many times and think the method two would look lovely in a contrast color on non-crotch repairs. What stitch length would you recommend for method three? My worry is that too many small stitches would weaken the weave and too large a stitch would wear quickly. Many thanks for your great videos, I have learned so much!

    • @DowntownTailoring
      @DowntownTailoring  3 года назад +9

      Thank you so much for your kind words Kathryn! I love that idea. For method 3, you set the length of stitch at 0 but then you control it manually, I'd say that the ideal result would appear to be around length of stitch of 2.

    I do like the last way of fixing wear on jeans. I have a pair of Jeggings which after a few times of wear I noticed tiny holes where the back seam near the crotch area starting to show. I have already unpicked that area awhile ago and thats as far as I got lol! Have cut out some material to match the stretch of the jeans but then got thinking how do I do the seam so as its not too noticeable. Have watched heaps of your videos on fixing jeans on your site so I have a collection of them saved for when I next get time to sit and fix them. Thanks for you knowledge on how to do these repairs.

      ​@@DowntownTailoring It worked brilliantly well!!! I never really used my embroidery foot as when I first tried it I was going all over the place, but your video gave me confidence to have another go. It took me a while to figure out how to hold the fabric right to move it in the right directions, but that got far easier the more I did and then it was really easy! I was worried that the thread I used was still a bit too light, but when he put them on you could hardly see it at all, it just looked like the rest of the other parts of his faded black jeans. I was very surprised how strong it was!!! I don't have that interfacing, I am not sure what one that is, so I just used a different woven one and that worked fine! I love this now I have done it and will definitely try it again, so easy now I have done one. Thank you so much 🤍❤❤

    I prefer the machine darning method. I have done similar but yours is much nicer. The denim fabric I reinforced was thin (no tears). I did not use any type of interfacing or patch and I used zig-zag stitch. The darning mode on a machine makes a nicer looking and more flexible repair.

    is it better 100% cotton jean patch or some other velvet-like material? What are the options?

    • @DowntownTailoring

      Bamboo or cotton knit, woven cotton, denim.... you can use your old T-shirts. Cheers 😊

    Hello, I don’t understand why you made the embroidery so visible on the outside. It could have been more discreet. Is there a reason for it? Also i would have used a lighter thread

      method #1 with satin/silk fabric on the inside so the thighs rub against slipper material and not the rough denim causing another hole

    I usually do the T short one but it’s also cause the jeans that I have had to mend the most are the ones that are stretchy

    I'm lazy so I used an iron on patch for the crotch area, and then just straight stitched the heck out of it. Worked really well, 2 out of 10 pairs fixed.
    And all I used was a cheap quik fix singer mending machine, so one doesn't really need an expensive machine. But next one's I fix will be on a old 1955 heavy duty singer, it'll be allot quicker.

      This is not lazy, this is smart. Gluing and stitching is the most practical way! Good luck with your new machine.
