Making Your Own

Recommended Posts

maybe there's a tread about this, but I didn't see one...

I'd like to start a thread about making your own, and particularly about where to get the pieces...

I'm looking for a good place to get staple buttons or tack buttons and good selvedge denim....

anything and everything about his would be helpful...

Judging by the fact that we're in superdenim and he asked about selvedge denim and buttons, the only reasonable conclusion would be that he is attempting to make a strap-on.

yes, one would instantly think that was what I was going to make, but in actuality, I wanted to make a pair of jeans, without a strap-on. But maybe once I get to be a good tailor, I'll make a special pair for you!

thanks RR, I did read that thread, but like most of the thread of guys who make jeans, they never say where they source their stuff.

Where to get Cone Selvedge

proper Tack or Staple Buttons

Rivets

Thread and sizes of thread, types....

That's what I need to know.. And that's what this thread is for...

I do love his hidden rivets and I wish he went into detail on how to do that...

For denim try the premium denim outlet. they have some decent cone stuff for like $4 a yard. Ridiculous at that price.

You can get some tack buttons and rivets here:
