I made my own JEANS! bout time

[newrooky]

I've been struggling to make some jeans over the past few days, and i Just finished earlier today. I didn't hem them yet because I don't know how i want the length yet. Please give a comment or whatever and let me know what you think and such. Also, I managed to get some selvedge denim today so that is for sale. thanks for looking and everything.

Back pockets are oddly shaped, but overall pretty nice man

[calatrava]

very nice side shillouette, just wondering if you have a button or zip fly?

[newrooky]

These are button fly

[mizanation]

nice jeans, man.

[calatrava]

another thing, how much time and effort did it take for you to do this?

[Guest jeffvyain]

wow those are really nice. very impressed. The stitching looks a little funny around the hem area to me, but hell, i can't really tell for sure. Very nice silhouette though.

[element02]

nice jeans.

[Chicken]

very well done! i guess the next question is if it will stand the test of time and wear.

looking good, how many jeans can you produce on a yard of denim?

[cheapmuthafukr]

very nice....

A bit optimistic?

You need about 2 and a half yards to make one pair.

Edit*

How rude of me, I forgot to say nice jeans!

[ruprecht]

don't look like much of a rookie to me. sooper.

[pacioli]

Great job! It's awesome how we have all these denim designers springing up on SF. We need to start a up and coming designers collective...

[kakaro]

I just have to make an own pair of jeans.

so fresh.

is it any hard?

Not used to the US metric system, thanks for enlighting me

[azad]

[typicalfashion]

looking good!

[darknworn]

Looks good. I dig!

[Kodak]

Good job, nice jeans.

calatrava & kakaro

honestly it was more of a pain than I had envisioned lol, i did struggle through it at first. And I hafta say i have gained respect for designers, especially for more difficult things.

jeffvyain: The sticking is normal down to the hem, but once you get there i haven't hemmed it at all, Waiting to see how the rest of them fit to decide if i want to hem to my length or flip them over and show the inside.

qom & Lars: It depends on what denim you are using (what width) for how many yards (0.91 meters) On most modern denims it is about 1.5 yards. With 45inch cords it is about 1.9 yards, and with 28inch it is around 2.5-3 depending on what you are doing....i think

pacioli: I agree, SF brand ha, they would go well with the shirts i have heard so much about.

thanks guys

You've done a very good job there.

[andewhall]

Nice one mate, keep up the good work!

[rome1]

Yo thats fuckin amazing that you made those. was this your first attempt or have there been try's? whats the weight on that denim it looks kinda slub. Im seriously impressed with people that can create stuff on their own not leaving it up to a company.

[newrooky]

It was my first try for pants of any type. The denim is somewhere around 14oz

[qom]

what kind of tools did you use by the way?

[newrooky]

Gom: A couple different pair of scissors and a bad Brother sewing machine that has a difficult time getting through more than 3 layers of thick denim. And then a hammer and rivet tool for the rivets..
