When buying a pair of jeans or pants through our webshop, you have the option to add hemming to your order. This service is managed by our Dutch partner, Future Future Apparel & Denim Repair. As the name suggests, in addition to hemming they also offer a wide range of repair, upcycling, and redesign services. They repair and replace jean pockets, restore crotch blowouts, and even offer a re-waxing service for wax coats. All in the name of repairing rather than replacing garments, a sentiment we definitely support and try to encourage.
Future Future has been provided with original BENZAK threads, which they use on a modern chainstitch machine. All hems are rolled by hand to maintain the often desired ‘roping effect’ that develops after wear and washing. If you decide to have your jeans hemmed by them, the result will be as close to the original product as possible. You can even visit them in person, on appointment, for a fitting session and professional advice.
We recently visited Fez, the repair artist behind Future Future, to capture his atelier filled with vintage sewing machines.
