Denim Hemming help?

Can anybody teach me to hem jeans? I just bought a nice pair of selvedge jeans, but they only come in one (long) length. Alternatively, can anyone recommend a good tailor?

Most dry cleaners can also do simple alterations like this. If you don’t get any help doing it at DMS, you might try a dry cleaner near you.

I’ll be in creative arts tomorrow from 11-1:30 for the leather SIG open workshop. If you can come towards the end of that time I’d be happy to help.

I’ve been meaning to turn some older jeans into shorts, so this topic spurred me to google. This seems to be the most common method I found for shortening jeans. All while keeping the original hem.
