If you have inner thigh Jeans HOLES, do THIS!

[@talyar04]

I understand the benefits of stretchy jeans, but I miss the days when denim was actually a durable fabric.

[@talyar04]

@@rosebroyles8972 Okay cool! I’ll check it out.

[@trenee5530]

SAME!

[@aleisterlavey9716]

I made mine from 100% hemp denim. I wore it for about 1½ years daily till they got holes, although I used the cheapest 100%hemp denim I could find. Worth it. Normal jeans from the Store I wear out in 8 months (frontpocket holes in about 3 months) If you once tried on hemp jeans, you don't want to wear cotton jeans ever again. (Hemp is like Linen to the touch and gets very soft with washing)

[@dzenkipenki]

My thighs touch eachother since ever. I wore jeans 30 years ago, LEVIS jeans, not stetchy ones, the 501s. Managed to wear out this part of them in every single pair of them. But I did wear them daily, 24/7 Material can only last this much if being rubbed constantly.🤷‍♀️Does not depend on quality, really

[@bajscast]

@@aleisterlavey9716 You made them? How long did that take?

[@alessandragnecchi8767]

I have the same problems.. very few jeans fit right and those that I finally found comfy I always use and they get destroyed in my inner tights area. This is a great tip!! :)

[@JulietUzor_]

Thanks so much. I’m glad you found it useful

[@tarungupta1571]

This problem is common to those who have sweating happens around inner thigh area and that causes the jeans to torn out easily as the thread becomes weak over that area

[@aishausman5397]

I just realized that we could do this patching beforehand to help limit the amount of damage on the actual outside of the pants

[@tamiwalker1016]

Oh man! Girl you are speaking my language. I too have trouble finding jeans that fit well and when I do and go to buy more they are discontinued. I have done this technique to fix chub rub wear in the crotch of my jeans. Except I used the zigzag stitch. I will definitely give your back and forth stitching a try. It looks like it will be an even more secure stitch. I really wish that the designer world would see the struggle that most women and some men have with this issue and reinforce the inner thigh area of our jeans. Thanks for sharing.

[@blazertundra]

I do Japanese mending on my jeans. It looks fancier, but we're talking about a couple of hours of making lots of clean running stitches vs. a few minutes on the machine to get a functionally identical result. I do like to patch the area with bias cut muslin when the material gets thin, that way it's never allowed to completely fail and the material underneath is less bulky. Great tutorial! I might have to go your route now that my work is keeping me too busy to mend my jeans the fancy way.

[@JulietUzor_]

Wow… that’s a great way to do it.

[@carolinebray3084]

I do the same using Ankara fabric in the inside and lots of different coloured embroidery thread. It is slower but I put some music or a book on and take my time knowing I’ve got a few more years wear out of the jeans 😀

[@GavinBisesi]

"I do like to patch the area with bias cut muslin" does that mean you do a denim patch on the inside paired with muslin on the outside, or do you use the muslin on the inside? Newbie sewist here

[@dzenkipenki]

While I do love, love, love and admire those lovely japanese mending stitches, I want instant solutions and will go with speed over looks anytime. It is my characteristic, that I don't necessarily love or approve, but have accepted it at my ripe age of 46 😂So this video is just what I need.

[@blazertundra]

@@GavinBisesi sorry, just saw this now. It's only the bias cut muslin as a patch. However, I only use it to reinforce a thin area that hasn't failed yet, and apply Japanese style mending to marry the two fabrics. The goal is to make the fabric last until it literally wears all the way through.

[@AngelaPredhomme]

Juliet! I LOVE ❤️ this video for 2 reasons: You used my new song, "Unstoppable Me," and at the beginning! (thank you!) AND I seriously need this video. I have some old pants saved in a pile that have this exact problem, and I knew there must be a way to fix it, but I didn't know how. So, thanks!!

[@pearllucas452]

I wish I had found your video on yesterday sweetie because I just added a patch to my grandson’s jeans but didn’t go back and forth so now I know. Thank you for sharing 💕

[@paraboo8994]

That is the first thing I learnt to sew on the machine when I was a teen, because I'd bring my grandma so many pairs of trousers, she just sat me down and showed me how to do it. If the patches wear down again, I usually reinforce them again and cut them off for one more life cycle as summer shorts until they eventually land in the bin.

[@luannschomel2642]

This worked so well !!!! Thankyou for the concise directions.... quick and to the point ! I will watch for more tutorials from you.

[@ImNotaRussianBot]

I want to add in the patches before I start wearing the jeans to get ahead of the problem.

[@Starburn321]

Thank you! I’ve gone through so MANY jeans. I shouldn’t have thrown away the last pair so I could use it as a patch.

[@JulietUzor_]

So happy to help

[@Vilqq17]

Big thanks! 🙏 I really needed this as someone who cycles everywhere and has destroyed several pairs of pants right in that spot.

[@naa14669]

Juliet, I recognise those jeans as I wear the exact same pair you do for the exact same reason- being curvy. They are the only ones I buy now and are so long lasting too. And I mend my husband's jeans using the same method you've shown here in this video and they last so much longer!

[@JulietUzor_]

Oh! Naomi! Mine are in rotation. 😆😆😆 so lovely to hear from you. Hope you’ve been well?

It’s sooo good, I feel glad I discovered this method. Thanks so much for watching

[@jokeakkermans4375]

A life saving video! I'll certainly try this on my jeans. I always have this issues as I have the same bodytype as you. Finding a comfortable pair of jeans is a hard job so I wear the one's I have a lot.

[@Pattythomas5]

Thank you for your video. Yes, I am like you and my jeans wear in the same way. May I ask, after you do this repair do you find it in anyway uncomfortable to your inner thigh? Do you find the repair lasts a good amount of time? Just curious. I'm not good at sewing, but I am certainly willing to give this a try. (Thank you!)

[@cherylgreen7561]

Perfect! I'm wearing my favorite jeans right now and just noticed they're about to rip in the inner thigh. Just need to grab some blue thread! Thank you!

I have the same! but this hack works for but a few weeks so I then cut them into tiny shorts haha, and wear them short for vacay. buuuuut.... I now have about 10. I go through two ASOS Farleigh mom jeans a year (the mist jeans last! with any other brand it's about 3 months).

How do the stitches not itch on your thighs? Genuinely asking. I have pants that need this kind of fixing but I'm nervous that they'll be uncomfortable.

[@vishalbhatia7982]

In simple words.. I can say Thanks

[@JulietUzor_]

So nice of you

[@EsmaraldaStock]

I can relate to what you say. Curvy people find it difficult to get the right fit and when we do we want it to last but then this inner thigh ripping is real spoiler. I've will try this kinda patching n stitching now.

[@valoutecook]

Thanks thanks thanks. I have been wearing my legging since August because I don't have time to shop, or sew! I am a mature student, single mother a of 5 year old! You saved me😅

[@isabellewerder6485]

Thanks!

[@robg8720]

I know this is an older vid... but I'm finding the 'rough' and 'raised' sections of fabric/thread and possibly toucher area of fabric are creating rubbing/hot spots on my inner thighs... Any recommendations how to fix this? I was thinking of just getting some fusible mesh fabric to go over the stitching on the inside but I'm worried that it may just make the rubbing problem worse.

[@JulietUzor_]

You know, I had this issue with one of my skinny jeans. So I pressed on some woven fusible interfacing that feels like cotton. It helped.

[@mogain9258]

Yes, I need to do this!

[@AJ-sy1lt]

I know this is an older vid but i hope you answer this.. does it not show from the behind? Like i am a lil embarassed to get that patchwork done bc i think it will show from the behind and would look really terrible.

[@marandamiller3846]

This was so helpful! Thank you!

[@cassandralynn3590]

Can I hand sew it and it will work when there is already a big hole on each side and still ripping?

[@Kera707]

Is there any solution to this problem? Certain type of jeans this won't happen to? Mine don't last 6 months and diy patch extends life by 6 more months at max

This is exactly how my grandmother fixses my jeans, and she knows how to do it without the internet 😮

[@reneemccaster5497]

Okay, so what do we do if we don't have extra fabric laying around?

[@k.w.1459]

Thanks for this. I don’t have a sewing machine so this is still not possible for me. My wear tends to be a big lower in the thigh. I wonder if you dye your jeans after the mending it would also hide the (cotton) thread and lighter fabric?

[@stiongco4756]

I've dyed a pair of jeans once before. I bought them because I loved the fit but hated the color and they didn't have another option left. There are great tutorials on you tube of how to dye jeans. Using the RID navy and black dye works well for dark jeans. But a test fabric first if you're concerned about getting a certain color. I like indigo jeans most so the navy & black dyes work well to get that. My first try didn't come out exactly as I wanted but they still looked good and much better than light washed jeans. I've heard it works well to refresh older faded jeans too so it would probably help match repair threads just fine.

[@lissam8988]

I have a pair of very old yoga workout pants that are wider in the thigh area so they are a little looser I have literally never had them go bad after all these years. They are about 78% cotton, about 20% polyester and about 2% spandex. It seems to be the perfect combination for these particular pants. I have tried to find jeans that are a little looser in the thigh area and it seems to help a little and give a little bit more longitivity. And I wear blue jeans that are tighter around the thigh then that's where the rubbing happens the most. I recently found some incredible jeans but I don't know the name brand there is a tag but it just says jeans and then they're not like a size system like 12 14 16 they just say large. I really would love to know even if it is a off-brand what they are but I have looked and looked to see if I could figure this out the tag is no numbers just says jeans and then size large. They fit me so comfortable around the waist...I like high waist. And I'm trying not to over wear them They are slightly looser in the thigh area so I know that means I probably will have them last a little longer. And I do understand that a lot of women want to wear jeans that are tight because it shows off their curves. However I'm an older woman now and that doesn't really matter to me anymore. LOL 😂 I mean I do want to look good, I'm married, I'm not looking to find me some young hot guy. And even if I was looking, I would want a mature man that had all his ducks in a row. Not looking for a hot little thing.
