Local Jean Repairs
 
I did a quick search on "repair"s and repairs in the denim thread and i couldn't find anything local.

i was thinking of sending my stuff to denimtherapy but i'd rather try something local first.

my problem is my crotch, i have flat feet and i pronate so my pants always wear there first.

thanks guys

+1 for Albert's. Rates are pretty cheap considering it's in downtown.

'woob' used Ylium in North Vancouver, BC - Weblocal.ca. Apparently they can do darning repairs which I assume Denim Therapy does.

If you want another option for mail-in repair try Rail Car Fine Goods, Denim Services

No. No one in Vancouver offers chain stitching. The closest place to get it done is Blue Owl in Bellevue, WA.

How much is the rate of albert's anyways?

woob 03-10-2012 11:47 PM

^not sure about his other services, but a hem is $9 and is done while you wait (takes like 10 mins).

not quite denimtherapy.com, but at least i can wear them for the time being.

Energy 03-13-2012 12:38 AM

Based on the before and after I'd say that Albert did a good job there.

Expresso 03-13-2012 09:14 AM

So he basically took a patch of fabric and covered up the tears right?

2krazie 03-14-2012 10:06 PM

I just took 3 pairs of jeans to the place in Metro by Superstore. 40 dollars for 3 hems and a repair. Hopefully they do a good job, they said the repair should be invisible.

Expresso 07-07-2014 07:11 AM

^^^How did the repair turn out?
