Taking in my sons dress pants for homecoming with no experience. Your video is by far the best and you helped us get him to homecoming looking 👌 Thanks 😊
Just got my first sewing machine. I remember in High School i purposely took sewing class to be around all the chicks but actually started liking sewing ..little did i know that one day I'd really need those skills to taper some older jeans and pants that were wider back in the day, umm MUCH WIDER...fast forward 20 years and now days I'd look like a clown wearing some of the jeans and pants i saved from the early 2000s Lol but fortunately..I found this channel to help refresh myself on how to taper.
PS: Anyone remember that FAD where we'd roll up & tuck the bottom of the pants around the ankle? Lol
Damn, I wish you would have shown the last steps too. Everything else was a great explanation.
I used this video today to take in a pair of shorts that I really love but were too wide in the legs, and BAM!! my shorts turned out amazing. Thank you for publishing this video. Gaining some skills while saving some cash. Ty!!
Ay bro really appreciate this video. Even tho it's 5 years old it's still helping people today.
This seems a lot easier than how complicated I made it in my head. Thank you!!!!!
You are a smart young man. This is a great tip!
Toe Be yo I appreciate you!
That was brilliant brother ....I love the old/new slim 60s jazz look
I am loving these videos! Thanks so much! I have a pair of pants that I always just pinch and cuff to give them a tapered albeit baggy look. But I'm definitely going to try this on them soon. The video of the bowling shirt was great too. Awesome fabric choices!
I should have commented before, Norris, because not only did this video help me, it helped my daughter too. Such a great resource! And congratulations to the newlyweds!!😄💕
You explained this very well, thank you for taking the time and sharing!

Excellent video! Clear and concise and easy to follow! Thank you!
Thank you! Explained in clear terms. Easy to understand and to the point!
Great video - thanks. If taking in just the inside how do you deal with the crease? The crease will be moved to the inside no?
Thank you for the advice.
That's an eye opening video,thank you for the lesson

The results from our local tailor have been expensive disappointments, so I'm going to give it a go myself.

Man! That looks easy! Thanks for making this video!!
I've been looking for a way to taper my work trousers for ages! I'm so short and even when I buy petite tapered trousers, but the time I've take those up they're still too wide! This is a game changer - thank you :)
So helpful! Thank you!!
Thank you for this!! Helps a lot.
Perfect but I’ve come to expect nothing less from you Mr. Ford 🎉
Thanks for the great video. It was super helpful and high quality.
Super helpful, thanks my guy!
Great tutorial!
Amazing tutorial, thank you. All in the preparation 👌🏻👍🏻
Excellent tutorial. Best to practice on old trousers first.
Great job thank you so much for all your information.
That was tight bro....Thanks!!!
Thanks for posting! Very helpful clarification especially regarding how to stitch the crotch region. Some videos have glossed over it, so yours was helpful.
Thanks you made it look so easy, my work pants are so wide they look ridiculous., I am going to try to take them in.
Super helpful. Thank you!
Omg!!! thank you for sharing I'm a beginner and about to sew a few pants. This is the best video so far👍👍

Thank you for sharing. Interesting. Blessings
Thank you so much for this vid! I’ve recently got into sewing and this helps so much ✊🏾
Greg Swish appreciate it! You should checkout our online school sewitacademy.com made for true beginners!
What’s up Norris! Dope channel! I’m headed to LA next week... Do you have any vintage or thrift store recommendations? I want to start altering/tailoring clothes. Also, I am strongly considering joining “The See It Academy”. You and your lady are doing incredible things.
very helpful video, i'm gonna give this a go!
Every word is useful. Also to practice on a few spares before the important garment. Great 👍
So helpful!
Excellent, thanks for share!
Good video my brotha what type of sowing machine you recommend for beginners
Very helpful! Thank you

Freaking FIRE VIDEO TUTORIAL! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Can you do 1 on jeans? I really like this vid!
From one Norris to another -- thanks!
Thanks for sharing, I have learned something
Bless you bro 🙌🏾
Thanks! I’m working on a pair of khaki pants right now. They are a little too blousy in the leg. What diameter cuff do you like?
Dawg !!!!!! Thank you 😮🎉
Amazing thank you,
i hate when pants are tight in the knee this helps a lot.
Yakoub Dahmane I’m glad this helps bro!
Nicely Explained
Thank you
Have viewed several videos on this subject. Like yours the best.. thanks
Any chance I could sew it by hand or is the machine necessary? Great video!
nice! i would be nervous to be pinning myself!
Thanks!
I really like the tip about the pins going in through both legs then chalk marking 2nd leg, thank you :) Only thing I would add, is to really press trousers carefully before starting, it makes any alterations much easier when things are flattened.
Jessica Hothersall thanks for the feedback and I really do appreciate the pressing tip!
Hey man. Thanks for this video.
Bret Melton you’re welcome and I appreciate your taking time to checkout my content.
I don't have a sewing machine, or much hand sewing expirence, so I'm hoping I can do good work.
This is my first time needing to sew something, but the work pants I just bought myself were too wide to look good, so I decided to taper it. Wish me luck.
dude thank you!
What sewing machine should I get
Why did you take out bottom hem? It won’t work without doing that?
Bro that was amazing since I bought some pants on sale for $7 bucks and the tailor I found charged me $15 per pants and still cut them too short, and I now hate the four pants he messed up!! I will now get a serger and start doing my own pants. Can you use a serger alone without a sewing machine like I saw a woman do?
I'm guessing you are using a single stitch and should you overcast if you don't have a serger?
😎 Nice one
You should do a sewalong on burda 6816 ..
Where did you get your chalk from.
Great video, Norris. I, personally would also serge the new inside but for those who do not have a serger I would tell them to either use pinking shears or finish with an over-edge stitch if their machine has that built in. Much love to you, buddy.
TheCynedd thank you sir. And yes that’s great advice for those that don’t have sergers! I appreciate you watching.
I've looked at about a dozen videos on how to take in pants and this is the only one that looks easy enough for a non-seamstress like me. Thanks. I hope I don't blow it
Yo how did it go?
Thank you! This is the best step by step tapering video... I would like to see the cutting & surging next time.... or possibly a video showing how to zig zag to protect the stitch... thx again!!! ☮️ from NYC..
randyroller for sure bro! I’ll do a part two with even more details
I wish you showed the results.. this is exactly what I need.
Are uou using straight stich?
Just one pass down the leg? Would a second make it more secure? Sorry, very new to sewing things! Great video though man. Clear, well shot and edited.
It's usual to do one pass, using a shortish stitch which is firmer. Then zigzag edges, which stops fraying and reinforces strength at the same time.
Great video. Thank you. Just did my own pair of cords and only ended up with the needle through my finger once 😂
What is your measurements in this video
Good
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! SUCH AN EASY AND CLEAN TUTORIAL!!!
