So you can cut the pleats and let out the jacket so you have more room, then in warmer weather you can re-stitch it when you don’t need so many layers underneath.

It’s by a Japanese brand called momotaro,

Can confirm, it is a momotaro jacket.

Sorry what do you mean by "the swipe or Chicago"?

I'm not a professional by any means, and I'm not familiar with the process for digitizing and grading patterns but if you have a suit collar pattern and a waistcoat pattern with a lapel you can combine them, it would probably take some tinkering but secretly mine wasn't perfect either, the collar wasn't wide enough and it left a gap between the collar and lapel.

nah boy speak for yourself I find this video very entertaining and informative, maybe that lawyer job isnt soo good for your mental health considering how negative you come off as

I found it entertaining. I didn't feel talked down to. Your point no longer stands.

LMAO at someone taking the time to watch the video and write that comment. "I don't even care bro" lolllllll

Then you should waste more time learning about It of you still not convinced

such miserable existence

Ooh interesting question, Ametora by W. David Marx and Worn by Sofi Thanhauser are fantastic, neither are entirely about denim though, but have a lot of interesting history. There's also the denim dedicated website Heddels, which while a lot of their recent stuff is behind a paywall and not as good as their older stuff in my opinion, is still great. Their article on dating vintage Levis is a great resource that I often end up referencing. Hope that helps!

Thank's a lot it will definitly help a lot, Have a great day ! @@distressedtailor

About 2.5 inches

@@distressedtailor Thank you !

I am working on one but I'm slow to upload because this is just a fun hobby and these videos are a lot of work. What are you confused by?

That's probably the most thorough review of my videos I've gotten so far, I really appreciate it! As for the ironing, if I can prattle on for probably too long, I have a weird mixed inspiration from raw denim and what I was taught when I worked at a menswear store, with the rest being self taught so I can have these weird gaps in my knowledge. Raw denim has this sort of minimal ironing ideology because too much ironing would flatten the natural texture of the material in a way. This sort of makes sense when you're talking about denim with uneven tension (a weirdly prized detail in the denim world) that's taken right off the bolt for cutting, but maybe not as much for me with my consumer denim fabric that's been folded up and packed in a box, but that didn't stop me from wanting to be true to form. On the menswear end, the tailor who taught me a lot of the basics told me that if I ironed too much I would be forcing the fabric into a different shape and not following the feeling of the fabric. I took that a little too much to heart and also I think misunderstood it a bit. She was probably just being cautious since I was using an industrial iron with a vacuum board and could very easy shrink or stretch the fabric if I wasn't careful, but I just lumped it together with the denim ideology and didn't think on it much after. She also taught me how to shrink and shape fabric with the press, but I never went back to check on my basics so I never really thought about it again until my yellow waistcoat video where I studied up on tailoring a lot more and realized (about halfway through filming it mind you) that I probably should've been ironing a lot more throughout the entire process. Anyways, tldr, I should buy a larger ironing board lol

Thanks! I have more stuff on the way, new video should be up in the next week or two, hopefully

@@distressedtailorjust here to say we are absolutely still waiting!

I used fabric paint. The first wash I did by hand just to be safe but I've since washed it in a machine using cold water on the gentle cycle. Glad you like the vids!
