We will repair all denim brands using a traditional darning technique on our vintage Singer machine at our Railcar workshop with out the need of an undesirable top denim patch. This process can add years of life to your jeans by blending the repair seamlessly to your denim jeans. In some cases a thin back fabric will be installed to help the repair last longer. We have over 15 years experience repairing and mending denim fabric servicing worldwide.
Extreme Service:
For extreme crotch blowouts, additional charges may apply. If you're unsure whether your damage qualifies as extreme, please contact us before mailing in your jeans. If we deem the repair to be extreme upon receipt, further charges may be necessary.
The Process:
- First we will process the jeans and inspect them before service
- We will install a thin fabric backing if necessary to reinforce the fabric before the mending and blending sewing. This thin fabric is very thin, unnoticeable, and will help the repair last much longer.
- Colors of mending threads will then be chosen for the repair. We will choose colors that will age well with the denim surrounding the damage area.
- The repair will then get the threads trimmed, final inspection and shipped back to you.
Fast Mail-in Service:
Railcar Denim Services offers tax-free darning, with a 3-4 week turnaround from the date the item is checked in.
