The Split Hem | Side seam opened and finished clean

Every in-person alteration starts with a $50 fitting, credited toward your final bill. Book a fitting to get started.

A split-seam finish, done properly. We open the seam at the hem and finish the edges so it reads like an intentional split on a pair of jeans, not a repair. The opening creates a slight bootcut effect at the ankle. It does not turn a straight leg into a true flare.

What you get:

• Seam opened to the length we agree on at your fitting [confirm typical range, e.g., 3 to 6 inches]
• Clean, durable finish on the opened edges [describe your finish, e.g., matching thread, bar tack at the top]
• Original fabric, fades, and stitching kept everywhere else
• Turnaround: [X days]

Good to know: This gives a subtle boot-cut shape, not a full flare. If you want a true flare, ask us at your fitting, and we'll tell you what's possible [and price it separately]. Priced per pair. Final price is confirmed before we start.

Bring the jeans you want worked on to your fitting.
