I just brought in a pair of expensive jeans to be shortened and they did a very good job. <p></p> and.. you can choose to have it done the way you described; by attaching the original hem. I paid $9. http://brooklynian.com/forum/park-slope/tailor-for-jeans#post-639559 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 13:16:31 +0000 Mamacita 639559@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ I'd use the search button (under advanced search) because I seem to recall about a year or 2 ago there being a couple threads specifically on jean hemming.

The last tailor I tried (someone on Bartel Pritchard Square) did a rough job -- a quickie clip, fold and stitch. Someone I used to use out of state had a great technique in which they actually kept the original hem and worked it into the new length. Thanks for any suggestions!
