Hemming FAQ

Hemming FAQ

What is hemming?

  • Hemming shortens the length of a garment by folding and stitching the fabric at the bottom.

  • It provides a clean, polished look at a precise length and prevents fraying.

What types of garments can be hemmed?

  • Pants, jeans, skirts, shorts, and other bottoms.

  • Some dresses and other garments with straight hems may also be eligible.

How do I choose the right length to remove?

  • Measure how much shorter you want your garment to be.

  • Selecting 4 inches means your item will be returned 4 inches shorter from the bottom.

  • If unsure, try pinning or folding the hem at home to visualize the new length.

Can you keep the original hem on jeans?

  • Yes! We offer an original hem service to maintain the factory look while shortening the jeans. In cases where this is not possible, we will do our best to honor the original look of the hem.

How do I measure for hemming?

  • Wear the garment with your preferred shoes.

  • Fold or pin the fabric to your ideal length.

  • Measure from the fold to the original hem and select that length for hemming.

What if I’m not sure how much to remove?

  • When in doubt, opt for a more conservative cut—you can always go shorter later.
