Trouser hemming?

Hey! Would it be worth getting these trousers hemmed? Thanks.

sam nvm my first comment i am blind! As for whether it's worth it, that's up to you. How do you want the trousers to hit your shoes? And make sure you know how high you want to wear them (they seem low again).

My instinct is they could use a little hem esp with those boots They're getting caught under your heel

sorry if im late to this discourse but are you wearing them high enough on your hips properly?

How do they fit in the waist? Might be better to size down or look into other brands with similar cuts. I would definitely hem them, but if the length is not the only issue I would look into getting a different size or pant. If it fits in the waist properly (or at least doesn’t bunch up weird with a belt) than definitely get them hemmed

I’ve tried to put it where I think my waist is, but like with the Uniqlo chinos, they fairly quickly fall down to where my hips are. Double ping sorry :linkSweatSmile:

Is this just a temporary hem or something? Might be a tiny bit short.

what happens if you remove the stitching how much fabric is in your hem

i would not cut any fabric off your pants until you get a belt. wear them at the right height then take them to a pro to hem . im convinced a belt would have fixed the inseam problems on both of your pants that stitch (if this is tbe final product) is a single nick on something away from completely coming undone too buy belt go to professional tailor if you rly need hem --> ask for a "full break" by all means learn to sew and hem in parallel but not on pants you like

If you just want to experiment with how long the inseam is without hemming, do a cuff.

You could take the stitching out again, unfold them and have these as "raw hem" to get some of the length back.

I have done it with these, if you noticed the slightly frayed bottom that's just the cut edge instead of having them folded in

I'd say about 1/2 an inch I can't seem to get pants length right :linkCoolCry:

Sam it's so easy just use a measuring tape, and cuff them if they're too long, (until you're 100% sure of what length you need!) You don't need to cut your trousers up your self You can still save those ones just by doing this though!

This looks good to me! You can occasionally snip off the longer threads if it gets too messy Cool boots btw

All the more reason to cuff until you’re sure. Agree that this is actually kinda sick though
