Tips for Perfect Jean Fit
Bring Your Shoes
Always bring the shoes you'll wear with the jeans to your fitting. Heel height dramatically affects proper jean length.
Consider Shrinkage
Raw denim and some washes shrink with first wash. Wash jeans before alterations, or we can account for future shrinkage.
Size Up for Alterations
When buying jeans, it's better to size up. We can easily take jeans in, but letting out is limited by seam allowance.
