| 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 | |

he only charged me $14 to patch each pair, he did a fair amount of work as he also gave me an entire crotch lining. check out the pics  
not quite denimtherapy.com, but at least i can wear them for the time being.

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

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.
