How to Mend Men's Jeans
- Go through your wardrobe to search for old denim jeans that you no longer wear. If you find some, take a pair of scissors and cut a patch that will match the torn jeans.
- Visit a craft store. If you could not find a pair of old jeans to match the torn ones, you may have to broaden your search. Look for patches that can be sewn or ironed on. Make sure the patch will match your jeans. You should consider taking along a small sample from the torn jeans to match the patch up to it.
- Prepare to fix your torn jeans. Turn them inside out and put the patch over the torn area. It is important that the patch is turned on the right side. Iron the patch in place or pin it in place.
- Sew the patch in place. If the patch is not an iron on, you will have to use thread the same color as the jeans to sew the patch in place. Make sure you make small unnoticeable stitches.
- Tie your thread. After you have completed sewing the patch in place, make sure your thread has been cut and tied to keep it from unraveling. Your jeans should be as good as new.
