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.

    Tapering Service

    Posted by Joe on 23rd Jun 2021

    My denim was tapered to the exact specifications that I had requested, and completed in a timely manner. I would highly recommend WGC for any denim needs, and plan on using them again in the future.

    I’m so happy with the fit of my jeans and the craftsmanship that went into the alterations. Turnaround time was fast, communication was great and Maurice was helpful as this was my first go at denim customizations. I’m looking forward to using this service again and supporting Williamsburg Garment; the attention to detail is remarkable. Thank you for an excellent experience!

    I sent 11 jeans for full tapering (flair/bellbottom to narrow leg) They turned out AMAZING!! great communication - while it took a few days longer - it was because they did a very detailed an d professional job. If you have high-end jeans and want them narrowed - while retaining the hgh quality - this is the company to use!!

    Excellent work

    Posted by Erik on 12th May 2020

    I sent in a pair of raw denim jeans that did not fit as expected. I had low expectations and just hoped they fit a little better. They came back perfect! The staff communicated well to ensure my expectations, and the turnaround time was quick.

    Excellent Taper

    Posted by Ian Cornejo on 26th Dec 2019

    Williamsburg did an excellent job tapering my 19oz selvedge jeans. They knew to taper from the inseam and they even handled a double felled seam. On top of that, they were very quick. Highly recommend.
