If you're looking for expert tailoring for your Levi's, you've come to the right place. Levi's jeans are a staple in our shop, and we’re proud to offer customized alterations for Levi’s denim lovers who want a perfect fit. Take a look at the transformation on this pair of Levi’s Made and Crafted light wash selvedge jeans. Originally a straight-leg, size 36 waist with a 32-inch inseam, we tailored them to fit a shorter frame, creating a new 27-inch inseam and a custom tapered leg.

Our tailoring services for Levi’s—and other jeans—go beyond what most branded in-store tailoring shops can offer. In our studio, we’ve assembled an extensive range of denim-specific machinery, a vast supply of specialized threads, and a team of tailors trained to handle everything from intricate tapering to precision hemming. 

As a denim designer with years of experience, I make sure our staff has the skills to deliver results that look as if they were factory-finished. Our equipment allows us to flawlessly taper jeans from the inseam, the proper method for maintaining the original construction, whether they’re made with flat-felled or overlock seams. You’d be hard-pressed to find this level of equipment and expertise in most branded tailoring shops.

The attention to detail we apply in our shop is why so many Levi's fans come to us for hemming, tapering, and other denim alterations. We make sure every alteration blends seamlessly with the original stitching and design. For this pair of Levi's Made and Crafted jeans, we matched the stitching, preserved the selvedge edge, and tapered the legs without leaving any visible signs of alteration—as is often seen with other tailors. Our customers appreciate that their jeans come back looking like they just came off the shelf—only now they fit perfectly.

With Levi’s being one of the most popular brands in the world, we see a wide range of their men’s and women’s styles coming through our doors, often shipped in from all over the country. From standard Levi's 501s to premium lines like Made and Crafted, our shop has tailored countless pairs, making us a go-to spot for those seeking professional alterations on their Levi’s. Our expertise extends to all aspects of denim tailoring, whether you’re looking to taper, hem, or completely reshape your jeans for a custom fit.
