Custom Inseam Chain Stitch Hem Service - Under 21oz Brave Star Jean
$20.00
If you need your selvage denim hemmed to a custom inseam then look no further. There is only one way to chain stitch a selvedge denim hem and that's on a folder equipped Union Special 43200g. Why you ask? These machines create a desirable roping effect on the hem which is actually caused by a feed differential defect. What this means is that the fabric is metered through the folder (which feeds the hem to the needle) at a different speed than the feed dogs (on the bottom pulling the fabric) causing a push/pull effect on the hem which is what ultimately causes the roping effect. This roping effect is one of the characteristics that make vintage denim so desirable to collectors and the reason why these machines are so sought after now. The 43200g was first manufactured in 1939 and was phased out in the 80's. Because they were known for this mechanical defect a lot of them were abandoned, stripped for parts and exported to places such as North Africa and South East Asia. To find one in such good working condition as we have is truly rare.
PLEASE NOTE: All customized and hemmed garments are final sale and are not eligible for return or refund.
Additional inseam length is added to all custom hem orders to accommodate fabric shrinkage. The amount of shrinkage is determined by our team after your order is received and varies by fabric. Shrinkage may range from approximately 1/4" to 1".
Customers should not attempt to calculate or add shrinkage themselves. Please order the desired finished inseam length after shrinkage.
