Title: Cheap Tailors / Clothes alterations Post by: jutty274 on Thursday, January 23, 2020, 13:43:17 Can anybody recommend any cheap places to get some trousers taken up, they are my work uniform trousers so I don't want to pay too much.
We have a tailor at work but they only come in every other Wednesday, and I missed her yesterday so now I need to wait another 2 weeks and then 2 weeks after that to get them back.

I would use the hemming tape normally but with these trousers the legs are about a foot to long so I don't want to attempt to cut them myself as I will only balls it up.

Best worn with a pair of Lonsdale trainers :toocool: Title: Re: Cheap Tailors / Clothes alterations Post by: jutty274 on Friday, January 24, 2020, 08:55:38 Blimey Jutty, it's not like you're short, how come they are so long? :) It's a new uniform supplier, I asked for long leg as I do in all trousers and these are really long, I could probably put them on over a pair of stilts and still stand on the end of them |
