Repairs & Modifications

Whilst visiting Giles yesterday we happened to discuss speacialist denim repairers. I've used this guy on Levis Vintage and found the quality of repair, service and cost superb. I definitely recommend him. He's based in Manchester:

Anybody have positive or negative reviews of Denim Doctors in LA or Denim Therapy in NY? Need a hem re-chainstitched, if possible. Either of these places do that?
-
Gave the Singer some work today.. Alex' pair of 634s is ready to go another 7 month
-
iron Nice work Beats, particularly like the selvedge detail. That doesn't look like Iron Heart denim used for the patch, is it?
-
nope, Simon, I wouldn't use 21oz on 21oz for repair, just too bulky..the reason we put the patches on the outside is that Alex wears his jeans cuffed …
-
9634s battered and frayed
cuff and crotch repairs by Andrew at Self Edge

hey G, now that it's no longer summer and i can entertain the possibility of wearing denim again, i needa get my ass into gear and get my 301s blowout fixed up. any recommendations on places to send em? IH HQ? japan? usa? any place is as expensive as the other to ship to from the antipodes…

My sr's are starting to come apart in the crotch area. I'm really hoping to slow this down as much as I can.
where they are at,
What is the best way to go about this? A patch sewn on from underneath?
-
Any way to repair these? It seems Iron Heart and Redwing don't get on.
Less than 6 months wear BTW. -
D97- repair what? It just looks like awesome evo hem if you don't like it. the only way is just to re hem slightly shorter
-
Seriously from the second pic looks like it's just happening at the front? I think the fast hooks on your boots are doing it.
Options 1. new boots 2.cuff your jeans 3. take your boots to a cobbler and change hose hooks to blind/exposed eyelets.

Cheers Jimmy I think I'll choose option 1

Less than 6 months wear BTW.i have exactly the same fraying on my IHs from the Iron Rangers.
it's the fast hooks. (front of the hem is above, btw). but I won't bother/repair it.
