- I got these shorts at Old Navy and I'm a huge fan of them. HOWEVER they are just a BIT too wide for my liking. Figured I would show you how to taper these since I plan on wearing them all the time this summer! Also, this technique works for swim trunks, basketball shorts, and chino shorts as well!

I'm a woman (generally interested in tailoring clothes to look one's best), and I find your channel really interesting and helpful. Lots of tricks applicable to women's clothes too. Plus it is SO SATISFYING to see men's apparel transformed from something that is dumpy looking into something flattering. A great skill to learn and a way to look your best, for anyone!
Welcome aboard! Thank you for the kind words, and you're right a lot of these tips apply to women's clothing just as much as it does guys clothes.
honestly man, sewing is something a lot of guys should learn. My dad showed me how to sew when I was about 6yrs old, he was Native American so it was just part of the culture, but it's come in handy so many times. For example those George brand t-shirts from Wal-Mart; I like the V-neck, the length and they're very soft & comfy but the body is wide and the short sleeve arms are kind of too open and flap in the wind lol.
A little tightening of the waist, and the arms...BOOM fitted T for chillin at home or playing with my daughter at the park at $5 dollars each, you can't beat that!!
BTW...I use the Brother SQ9285, cheap but good for beginner to intermediate.
@@ElioRose That is great! I have wanted to learn to sew for so long. Do you think that is a skill that can be learn online?
Just in time for summer. Thanks SD.
You bet!
No doubt. I've tried to explain that to my girl, who can't see the difference when I'm spending $60 vs. $20 for golf shorts.
😆This is a great tutorial. Maybe the first sewing tutorial with funnies. My hubby said what are you watching because I was 😆. I said a tutorial to help me take in my shorts. We are both 52 and I have watched a lot of sewing tutorials. Thank you!🙌🤩
Good to hear I'm not the only one who snickers to themselves while watching CZcams videos haha!
Was gonna throw em out! Thanks!
Glad I could help! Good luck and happy sewing!
*ENG ENG ENG ENG ENG ENG ENG!!!*
I bought a sewing machine a few months back (still in the box) but I haven't had the courage to start tailoring my clothes, but after watching Your videos.... oh man!! I am rady!!!
Even my wife said: "I'll believe It when I see It"
Let me know what she says when ALL of your clothes fit you perfectly! She's gonna be so jealous!
@@StylishDTailors I sure will.
Just shortened some pants into shorts and slimmed some down. Thanks again for your simple techniques. Again...best men's tailor channel on CZcams!
Wonderful! Awesome to hear you dove in and gave this a shot!
So glad to see you back, Stylish D!
Just today I put some of my tailoring skills to good use. Shortened and hemmed some sleep pants a good 2 1/2". Notes: I'm in no reasonable sense obese or overweight. But why would a 32" waist pair of pants be 2"+ too long on a 6' man? Second note: Shortening and hemming pants is probably 3 out of ten on the sewing skillz scale. And who cares how long your sleep pants are?
I do.
Many, many thank for your channel. For your humor. And for letting us regular guys understand its OK to care about how our clothes look, and for giving us the skillz and the confidence to put those things right.
God bless you, my man. Rock On, Stylish D!
Thank you for this awesome comment! I love hearing stories about how people get started and take the plunge.
Oh and I totally get it...I've tailored my underwear before lol. They gotta fit right!
Top tip: For adjusting one's Hawaiian Shorts (and shirts) use plain white cotton to sew the seams then Sharpies to get the perfect color-pattern match. 🖊
Your Hawaiian shorts are gonna be looking DOPE this summer my man!
Great Video 🎉
Thank you! 😁
just in time for summer😊
Yes sir! This works with swim suits too!
Even tho I’m a girl this helped me
So much to figure out how to tailor my shorts. I can’t find any other tutorials that are as good as urs!
Happy to help! These are definitely helpful for both men and women!
That's why i always get my shorts with a 5 ' inch inseam... perfect fit for my legs....
nice one, how about cargo or tactical shorts please, many thanks. k
Yup definitely doable, it just depends on the location of the cargo pocket as well as any thick reinforcing seams you might have on your tactical pants.
Could you do a video on lengething shirt sleeeves?
Hey SD, any hopes for tailoring mesh or knit material? I’m looking at a couple shirts that are knit and have small holes throughout them, and am unsure how to downsize them
You mean like the old school pickup bball style jerseys? Those are absolutely able to be tailored with the same tips. Only difference would be the type of needle you would use, I'd suggest a ballpoint needle.
What's your tips on hemming after this? The inseam is shorter than the outseam, so when I tried to get horizontally on the old line, it came out looking weird. Measure ninety degrees to the inseam and draw a line there? Help!
Oh no! DM me on IG @stylishdtailors with a picture if you can so I can help ya out.
🎉🎉🎉
I tried to shorten my shorts and then I'm subscribed
Perfect timing!
Will this modification of the inside Sam help with the outside of the shorts looking too wide? (Hope that makes sense?j
Yup it makes sense, and that’s why I do it that way. On the thumbnail the outside billow out way too much.
Thank you. (I meant seam, not Sam 🙄😂)
Man, other influencers have issues with title and description too!
Yep I guess so
Wide pantlegs look ugly, but have their purpose: try doing squat or other leg exercises at gym, or picking something up without (unhealthy) bending your spine, when pantlegs are narrow and material isn't elastic. I personally prefer convenience over appearance.
Very good points. I have a few pairs that are perfect for squats but are a wider leg. They're only reserved for leg day for that reason...
WELL DAMN……we gone have to take up a collection to git him a bottle of heavy LOTION for dem ashy knees and fingers!!!! 😳😳😳
LOL! I was wondering if it was that noticeable. That was me actually putting on lotion too...the struggle is real
@@StylishDTailors 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
why those characters in the title and description?
Not sure what you’re talking about?
@@StylishDTailors Your Title and Video Description are in panyabi language. I already checked and is not my device, and it's only this video of yours
Not on my screen, probably carried through from the previous video/advert you were watching.
The characters are in the English alphabet. If you're using a Google Translate extension, it could alter the original language characters.
@kevinp8108 hmm weird, I’ll look into it, thanks!
first makes your waist look smaller. the altered makes it look wider.
Nah the before makes my legs look tiny, I hated them
Woooooooo!!!!! Happy Friday!
