Has anyone restitched the arcuates from their neutered denim?

[MataLeao]

Since most denim stores have removed the coveted arcuates, has anyone stitched them back on? It shouldn't be hard since the hole pattern would still be visible.

haha, a desperate attempt to recreate what was lost...

is it worth the effort ?

you'd have to take the back pockets off the jeans, stitch the arcuate with a sewing machine...then sew the pockets back onto the jeans...dont think its worth the effort.

unless you hand stitch it...? which also would take a bit of work since the hole pattern would actually not be visible unless the arcuates are done with humongous needles and thick ass thread.

Ya, and at that time I would hope that you are not riveted on too.

Yes, I'm bringing it back from extinction. I will try to hand sew it back on. The only thing I can't bring back is the red tag, unless someone wants to donate their flathead tag. I'll post pics when I'm done.

I was thinking about cutting a red tab off of some old levis and putting them on something else.

i think not...after hard wear..the arcs disintergrate lol

the red tab is a different story...

The red tab is pretty awesome/important.

Hmm, didn't BiG have all these red tabs lying around in one of their photos?

I wonder if they threw them all out.

You may already know this, but LVC 44's have the arcuate painted on...maybe you could use pics of those as a guide. Joe-net has some good close-ups.
