Jeans ? for RAR210

rar210 · Marc Jacobs

I haven't gotten mine back yet - I was actually going to call today but I know it usually takes a few weeks on my jeans. She stays busy but does good work. I told her to call me with any problems and haven't gotten a call yet..... so hopefully that's a good sign. I'm not sure what to tell you - could you call around and see if any other local tailors have ever done these jeans??

Well, actually we have a few local boutiques that send a lot of customers to her (including Moxy). She even told me herself that she has done a ton of TR jeans and never had a complaint.

She called me today (I dropped the jeans off about a week ago) to warn me that the seam will be off as it has been with all the TR jeans she does.

I just can't believe that none of the customers care about that.

Now I am going to check out everyone I see in the city with TRs on!

Well, do you think it'd be that noticable?? Maybe ask to see a pair she's done before if she has a client willing to let you look at them. If you cannot find anyone else in your area, what about a dept. store that sales TR - maybe there alteration dept. would have more experience with getting the seam correct???
