- There's a few things that You want to make sure to do before you tailor your denim jeans, as they're SUPER important! Tailoring jeans aren't that much different from tailoring anything else, but there are a few differences that you want to know about that will help you out a ton!
First off, you wanna know how much your denim weighs. It's weighed in ounces, and lightweight denim is going to be between 5 -12 ounces. Middle weight denim and heavy weight move up from there all the way up to 20 ounces. Selvege or raw denim can weight almost 30 ounces, and it's important to know because of the next two.
Second, what kind of needle do you need? You don't necessarily need a denim needle, you can get away with using a universal needle if it's light weight denim. Anything more than 12 ounces then yes, use a denim needle.
Lastly, you might think that since denim is made from cotton that you can use cotton thread but no, use polyester! Polyester thread will move and stretch with you, where as cotton thread will not. That's how rips happen, and they're no good!

Hey SD! A.k.a. "sewing" dad. Loving the return of consistent sewing tips. I have been away and can't wait to catch up. My oldest son is now a fan! Keep going and inspiring other men to tailor!
THANK GOD I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL ................ IT'S JUST WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR 🙏🏼 🧵💫🤸♂️😀
Came for the denim learning, left with a Dad Pro Tip and a belly laugh. Cheers, from over in the UK!
Lol! Cheers bro! Don't let your kids trick you into thinking they don't like spicy food like mine!
Yup that's it ... I'm getting a sewing machine asap lol
Get on it bro!
I love this channel
Useful information friend
My friend, luv the energy and videos!! Question for you, do you taper or shorten sleeves on your t-shirts or shorter sleeved button downs? Appreciate it!
Thank you! And yes I definitely do, I'll put together a tutorial for you, it's SUPER easy!
Yeahh! Finally the denim video!
Haha she loved spicy Cheetos but not spicy food.
Made me SO mad lol. I was like "dude...seriously?"
I see Def Leppard, I upvote ! You may be the last man on Earth to wear a Def Leppard sweater.
Lol so true!
Love this channel SD! How do you actual tailor denim though? Same as chinos or should extra precautions be taken?
Yep, use the tips I talked about here.
Do any of your existing videos discuss tailoring chinos or dress pants? Is there a difference in hemming/tapering these lighter fabrics vs denim?
Actually chinos are coming right after my next video so probably later this week, I'll shoot you a link when its live!
Just found you & am already addicted - thank you! How about some words on tailoring a man’s tshirt to a woman’s fit? And also sewing on stretchy tshirt material?
Welcome to the addiction! And I’m planning something around that, stay tuned!
Ok, your weirdest video yet! And the screaming at the cat over the top!
Creeped out that I'm responding 20 seconds later? I would be...
And I didn't tell *at* the cat. Just around it.
my bother. do you have any new videos coming out ? 02/01/21
Just released like 5 my friend!
i think i messed up with my jeans. i tried tailoring my sample jeans to excatly the same length and taper but it just didnt fit! 6inch taper on my stretched skinny didnt work on on normal jeans!! 😭😭😭
Practice makes perfect!
@@StylishDTailors so the material of the jeans does matter when it comes to tailoring it identical to sample jeans.?
My 5oz denim turns into 20oz after a year of not washing and sweat/dirt/and grease builds up.
LOL yuk
🤔🤔🤔

Lol jokes aside, they say a mattress can double in weight from all our skin cells and stuff being collected in there.
I wonder if the same holds true to people who never wash their jeans.
Ok since denim (jeans) stretch out with wears. Do you tailor it after you wear it or before?
I would wash it first yes, but you don't it isn't the end of the world. I avoid washing my denim as much as possible personally.
lol, you're so funny!
