Get casual pants and jeans tapered expertly

Led by a celebrated denim designer, Williamsburg Garment Company redefines denim alterations with our premier jeans tapering service. Available nationwide and internationally via our online platform, we cater to those seeking expert denim tailoring services for a perfect fit.

Our approach, deeply rooted in denim design and construction expertise, enables us to meticulously alter jeans in a virtually undetectable manner. After all, we make jeans in small batches inside our Greenpoint studio. This expertise means your jeans retain their original essence, offering a custom-fit feel right off the rack.

We prioritize craftsmanship and the integrity of original designs, ensuring your jeans are perfectly tapered according to your specific measurements and preferences. We also understand the importance of time, so we offer three speeds of service to suit your needs: expedited service in 1 to 3 business days for an additional $50; a fast-track option of 4 to 10 business days for an additional $25; and our standard service, which takes about 4 weeks.

By choosing Williamsburg Garment Company, you're opting for unmatched quality in denim alteration, backed by the knowledge and precision of a renowned denim expert. Experience custom-fitted jeans tailored to your style and comfort.

What is? Plus, other details were answered.

We added a dropdown for inseam type because, when tapering jeans from the inseam (the proper approach), the inseam's design influences how long it takes to taper jeans and pants. Contrary to lockstitching, which hinders the ability to disassemble the garment, chain stitching enables rapid disassembly. Garments made with basic lockstitching require us to handpick the inseam sewing apart, which can easily add an hour or more to the operation. For example, we found a few brands that typically have lockstitched inseams: Tellason and Paige. You should anticipate paying a higher price to tailor these branded jeans.

People frequently ask, "What is bar tacking?" Our typical response is that it is the zigzag-like stitch found on belt loops and other spots to lend strength or support to garments. Some brands, such as Gustin and Nudie, employ it as a branding detail, but it is not required for chain-stitched hems. However, it can help keep the chain stitch from unraveling.

    Good to Go

    Alterations done well. They took a bit longer than what I paid for via rush service due to a lot of orders, but they made it right with a $25 dollar credit.

    Amazing service

    Posted by Craig on 15th Oct 2022

    Needed a pair of 21oz Iron Heart denim tapered and hemmed and the work was impeccably done. I could not recommend Williamsburg Garment Co more highly for denim alterations! I have since brought them several more pairs of Japanese denim for alterations. If you live in the area, stop by the shop. Maurice is awesome, has great style and gave me good advice on the optimal length, taper and cuffing options. He also makes his own jeans and they look beautiful!

    Denim Tapering Service

    Posted by Bob Dyce on 4th Jun 2022

    This is the second time I’ve used Williamsburg to taper a pair of 25oz Iron Heart jeans. Both times they have done an outstanding job. This time is wanted them a little looser fitting than the first and they were spot on once again and I couldn’t be happier. I will only use them for my selvedge tapering going forward.
