Another week has passed us and the jeans have traveled from one city to another seeing pretty much everything from business meetings to picking apples from orchard. Summer’s over. It’s time to focus on the Autumn season and prepare for Winter. It’s been 7,5 months and the jeans have seen every season in the book. I guess the rainiest and grimiest of the Autumn is still coming up but it’s all good.

So I had some damage control to do as the right pocket lining had lost a battle against my ring. So this is where we were at for the past few weeks.

Fast forward to this weekend and the actual damage control. I was first thinking of letting the lining stay the same but as I am planning to keep wearing the jeans for another year, it’s good to take care of these small damages as soon as possible. Hand stitching alone will probably not last much longer so I decided to dig up the “heavy artillery”, more specifically a vintage Singer sewing machine from way back.

Since the tear was pretty clean all that was needed was little bit of folding and stitching.

Not, the pocket is like new and we’ve got some added personification to the jeans. Awesome.

Since I was at it, I decided to re-enforce the seam on the crotch and inseam. Although the stitching was still all intact, I thought this would not hurt.

Following the stitching/sewing I gave the jeans another well-earned wash. I was actually supposed to wash the jeans already a week ago but did not have a chance to do so. But now the jeans are dry, clean and ready for the Autumn. Here’s a look of the jeans in their current form.

So, I am certain the jeans are good for another year of wear and tear. Let’s see what this week will bring along. But no matter what it is, I’m sure it will be all good. Peace and enjoy the Sunday, no matter where you’re at.
